Neve® Dynamics Collection
-
Two legendary British compressors, powering decades of Neve sound.
The Neve Dynamics Collection gives you fully-endorsed end-to-end emulations of Neve's most cherished dynamics hardware — the Neve 2254/E and refreshed 33609/C limiter/compressors — exclusively for UAD hardware and Apollo interfaces.
Now You Can:
Get the world's only authentic plug-in emulations of Neve's iconic 2254/E and 33609/C limiter/compressors
Mix with the 2254/E, the famed compression module from Neve's iconic 80 series consoles
Shape with the updated Neve 33609/C using new Sidechain Filter, Dry/Wet Mix, and Fast/Slow Attack controls
Easily add weight, thickness, and tone on individual tracks and buses
Sculpt with custom Attack and Release settings not found on the original Neve 2254/E
Mix with artist presets from Vance Powell (Jack White, Chris Stapleton), Damian Taylor (The Killers, Björk), Chuck Zwicky (Prince, Soul Asylum), and more
Neve 2254/E. The Heart of the 80 Series Console
A vital ingredient to the original Neve 80 series consoles, the 2254 limiter/compressor modules' creamy dynamics was employed on thousands of hit records — adding weight and color to instrument groups and individual tracks. Using a diode‑bridge topology, the Neve 2254/E features separate compression and limiting circuits, and is perfect for "toning up" while applying dynamics control to any source.
A Painstaking Emulation
By studying historical schematics and original Neve 80 series service manuals, UA's team of engineers captured every nook and cranny of this prized piece of British kit. The Neve 2254/E Limiter and Compressor plug-in nails the original hardware's complex amp/filter behaviors, giving your individual tracks and stereo buses the same colorful, rich British compression of the classic Neve module. Plus, shape stereo buses even further using the Neve 2254/E Dual, with independent L/R parameter control.
Mix Bus Royalty. The Neve 33609/C
Sporting more transparency and flexibility than the Neve 2254/E, but still flaunting fat, unmistakably British diode‑bridge dynamics control, the Neve 33609/C has been strapped across the mix bus of chart topping hits since the '70s. From gentle coloration to brickwall limiting, this workhorse dynamics processor is a professional go‑to not only for music production, but also mastering, post, and broadcast applications.
New 33609 Features
With new "plug‑in only" features like Sidechain Filter, Dry/Wet Mix for easy parallel processing, and Fast/Slow Compress Attack switch, you can sculpt stereo instrument buses and your mix bus with startling precision and unmistakable Neve tone.
“The Neve 2254/E plug-in nails the classic, chunky sound of the hardware. Plus, its expanded controls let you transcend the creative possibilities of the original.”
– Damian Taylor (Björk, The Prodigy, The Killers)
“The UAD Neve 2254/E's smooth compression is exactly what I’ve been missing!”
– Vance Powell (Jack White, The Dead Weather, The Raconteurs)
“The UAD Neve 33609/C is one of my top choices for parallel or mix bus compression.”
– David Isaac (Prince, Marcus Miller, Eric Clapton)
“The Neve 2254/E plug-in is a perfect parallel compressor for drums. It's one of my favorite compressors for backing vocals, and keeps them tight and upfront.”
– Joe Chiccarelli (Jason Mraz, Beck, The Strokes, Morrissey)
“The Neve 33609/C plug-in is incredible on piano, organ or your drum bus. Basically, anywhere you want that Neve color.”
– Ross Hogarth (Van Halen, Ziggy Marley, The Doobie Brothers)
“The Neve 2254/E plug‑in captures all the gooshy goodness of the original hardware. And with excellent updates like Wet/Dry control and faster release times, it's a real go-to for the mix bus.”
– Mike Poole (Robert Plant, Martina McBride, Buddy Miller)
“When I think thumpy, vintage, punchy drums, I think of the Neve 2254/E. The UAD version absolutely nails it. An amazing sonic tool.”
– Chris Zane (Passion Pit, St. Lucia, Holy Ghost!)
“The updated UAD Neve 33609/C Compressor offers a more precise, nuanced level of control, breathing new life into this plug‑in.”
– Damian Taylor (Björk, The Prodigy, The Killers)
“When you want to add style, color, and size, use the Neve 2254/E plug-in. It’s the classic recipe for vibe, especially on vocals and bass.”
– David Isaac (Prince, Marcus Miller, Eric Clapton)
“The Neve 33609/C plug-in delivers the same punchy tone and controlled dynamics of the hardware. The updated version offers new controls for even more flexibility.”
– Joe Chiccarelli (Jason Mraz, Beck, The Strokes, Morrissey)
“The Neve 2254/E compressor/limiter set the bar in the '70s for the "Neve sound." The UAD plug-in sets the bar for that same sound, in the box.”
– Ross Hogarth (Van Halen, Ziggy Marley, The Doobie Brothers)Customer Reviews

big sur로 업데이트 하고 갑자기 컴퓨터가 안되서, 많이는 사용을 못해봤지만, 일단 소리는 좋게 들리지만 제가 완전 프로가 아니어서 조작이 쉽지가 않고 어렵습니다. 현재는 프리셋으로 맞추고 미세하게 조절 하면서 미터를 보면서 소리를 듣는 연습을 하지만 쓰다보면 좋아 질거라 생각이 듭니다.

I absolutely hat to buy this as the new 2254/E Sound so dope! I compared it to the Lindell plugin Version of the same thing and it absolutely trashes the Lindell. I was surprised how good this sounds and how I couldn't live without it on the master bus anymore.

Whoa!
I put this on a drum bus, not knowing anything about this compressor or its history. I swear, even with hardly any movement of the needles, I am getting very desirable results...punchier snare, fuller mix. And that is with the wet/dry knob turned way down towards dry!
E. Lumiere
Can’t buy the updated 33609 separately
Only want the upgraded 33609 but of course they bundle it so you need to spend $150 on an upgrade. I think $50 would be fair to upgrade to the new version with the wet dry knob.
C. Manyame
Absolute wonder!!!
Love love love love this!!!!

One is phat, the other is crisp
I'm still finding my way with these compressors, but 33609 smokes the API 2500 plugin IMO. The 2254e is perfect for adding that thump to mixes.

How to punch a mockinbird
These units really know pull your audio over the line. The way it grabs onto the low end it magnificent and it's really what I came to expect after having owned a 33609 myself (albeit a J discrete version). It's a colouring unit that can sometimes smother your material if you're not careful, so it's not plug and play on everything. That's a telltale sign of a good plugin!

good
Collected all the neves series. It's a great gift for neve manias.
F. Grönlund
Outstanding quality
The 2254 really gives that vintage vibe. The build quality is amazing, and it has fairly light dsp usage.
H. Barry
NEVE Cream Team
The 2254e adds nice solid weight, tone, and glue. The 33609c is still nice enjoy the larger gui. A welcomed addition to my collection.

That Little Extra On The Bus
Absolutely love how the 33609 C gives my master or drum bus that little bit of extra punch and color.

Tremendos
Lo uso mucho en el bus de batería y en los overs. Son increíbles, aportan armonicos muy ricos y no resignan el ataque! Son perfectos!
R. Horvath
So easy to find the right creamy Tones and give it Amazing color of Neve !!
Its like Magic on Guitars and Drums
Sound so good thx UAD !!!S. Morrisson
Weight
Just awesome. The weight this thing added when I threw it on a snare track put a smile on my face. That along with the ease of use and subtle magic it adds to to your track makes it a winner.
