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.
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

I am loving what these do to drum mix busses. These seem to add a ton of weight and color that is very musical. The HPF SC filter is great for avoiding pumping. Happy with this set.

JE N'EN CROIS PAS MES OREILLES
Si vous voyez de quoi je parle quand je dis, c'est le jour et la nuit, alors vous comprendrez mon incroyable étonnement quand j'ai inséré le 33609 sur chacun des buss de la chanson "The promise you made" de Cock Robin dont j'ai créé un "backing track" pour mon groupe.
Les home studistes français me comprendront quand je leur dirai que tout était maintenu, plus grand, sans affreuses résonances, que la somme des buss était d'une incroyable beauté, tout en force et en maintien.
Je ne sais pas qui sont ces gars de Universal audio, certainement des extra-terrestres venus sur terre pour aider le plus grand nombre a enfin, "avoir le son".
Je m'appelle Hervé Plez, je vis près de Limoux en France, je suis auteur, compositeur, interprète et ingénieur du son.
Merci UAUDIO...A. Cengic

That polish to your mix
I use the Neve 2254E at the start of my master chain, great plugin for adding colour and depth to your mix.
These Neve plugins never fail to disappoint, great job from the UAD team.J. ter Borg
Warm and clean Neve sound!
This one rocks on a pulsating bass arrangement! Together with the UA 610-A it makes those long low notes shine.

One of my favorites
One of my favorites, a great plug-in, could be great to get manual control of the oversampling, auto gain, and custom size of the GUI.
