Classic Leslie
Sound elegantly with the organ and guitar.
J. Keen
Classic Leslie sounds at a fraction of the price
I use this plug on everything I feel could use it as an effect. Obviously for keys, but for guitar and vocals, it rocks!
R. Evans
Great emulation
Sounds great with keys but equally good on vocals, guitars, and even percussion tracks. Really fun and creative tool.
A. Maxwell
Nice sounding rotary speaker
I use also versions from Arturia and Eventide for the rotary effect. I’ve got to say that the Waterfall Rotary Speaker brings something different, slightly more vintage, especially in the midrange.
It’s a colorful effect so I use it on specific sources.

Holy Moly
Well you can apply this to just about anything for rotary goodness and sounds great!

Water The F!!
This review is not about the sounds , which are excellent.
So, UA build a great B3, with a decent Leslie emulator. Bought that, works great. But you can’t feed it an external source. Then they build a standalone Leslie emulator (that’s probably better than the B3 version) that takes external feeds, but won’t work in Console - so bye bye live latency free tracking or performance with guitar.
Tried midi controlling the rotor speed? I have. It’s DOA. After an electric piano on an instrument track in PT, for example, the midi input feeds the piano, but the mod wheel does nothing. If your midi keyboard is controlling an instrument it can’t also control the rotor. Dumb.
It’s as if UA has gone out of their way to extract as much profit as possible from a single simulation…but not even done that properly.
PLEASE
1. Include the Leslie, with external input, in the B3 which loads of us use all the time.
2. Port it to use through Console
3. Sort out the midi implementation
4. Stop rinsing us.

A Leslie for the Ages!
A truly great Leslie simulator. I just used it on a shaker for a track and the rotary was perfectly timed to the tempo and gave the breakdown a really cool swirly vibe that everyone was freaking out to just how cool it was. Thanks to UA for making me sound better than I am!

enfin ! the real thing
Yah ! it's true. . . I could bring a Leslie every where without a truck or keep it in my mixing or recording studio without any space issue. Sounds like the real McKoy! Don't forget to put it on every electric organ plugin sounds you could have.
Again ! I have to say . . . thanks a lot Universal Audio.
Keep on keep it on!

Even better than the real thing.
I know what I’m saying. Having used several Leslie models (even a 145), I can say that. If you know where put your hands (there are few controls, don’t worry) you can really obtain “album ready” sounds. The FM and AM modulation frequecies are identical (if not better) to the real thing. The noises coming from the rotors, belts and switch (that a can be switched off) add realism. The microphones choices (position and types) are wonderful and the sound is superb (even at high overdrive settings). The interaction between the volume and gain controls is perfect. For the future I suggest to add the possibility to select a treble horn with deflectors removed and the possibility to send directly the full range sound in the bass rotor (to mimic the classic “Born to Be Wild” sound). Again five stars, check it out, you won’t be disappointed. Great sound without the problems of transport and miking of the real thing.

Very realistic Leslie
My guitar sounds like George Harrison and Eric Clapton. So many great presets to play with. There is no substitute for the Leslie sound since this very convincing emulation arrived.
T. Feswick
It's ok
Heard better but does the job.
R. Appleton
Lush, lush, lush!
This is such a tasty plug in. It's a perfect way to capture those swirly late 60's guitar tones from players like George Harrison and Eric Clapton. And it's also very tweakable, I've only scratched the surface of it's lushness , and can't wait to dig into it further
H. Mendez
Very Creative!
I had the Real Thing and I can say, is not the exact thing but it's very useful and creative tool for other sources than a Hammond! That been said I do recommend this plugin. No Plugin will be like the real thing, Never, but with UAd we have a good representation of all the good tools used to make all the music we all love! Will love it in the DSP version also!
C. Saltz
Great Sonics but no Apollo Support
Sounds great but after buying into UAD2 with an Apollo and DSP expansion I feel cheated that this is now Native only. Im pro Native but supporting UAD2 is the right thing to do for at least the next few years.

Not part of Waterfall?????
Why is this not part of the new update of Waterfall??? It should definitely be!!! Now, I purchased Waterfall and I would also have to purchase this Leslie emulation because it is even better than the one within Waterfall??? Waterfall is a B3, for goodness sake!!! This is so unfair!!!
S. Quadros

Waterfall is brilliant!
This is beautiful and reminds of the B3 sounds from the late 60's and early 70's. Now all I need to do is learn to automate the speed of the Leslie. UA, you guys knocked it out of the park.
M. Willert
Awesome!
From swirling cascades to gentle undulations, this plugin does it all in style! And the drive… OMG, love it!
