Included Plug-Ins
API Vision Channel Strip Collection
Giving you all the critical recording and mixing functions in a single plug‑in, the API Vision Channel Strip Collection lets you sculpt your tracks with API's iconic L‑Series modules from its flagship large‑format Vision console. Easily punch up signals through the iconic API 212L preamp, expertly sculpt sources with the new 560L series ten‑band graphic EQ module and modern four-band 550L parametric EQ, tame transients using the 225L compressor, clamp down on noise with the 235L gate/expander, and dial in sources using the fully sweepable 215L's Hi/Lo pass filters.
API 2500 Bus Compressor
An obsessively accurate emulation of API’s flagship compressor — including detailed modeling of API's custom transformers and 2510 and 2520 op amps — the API 2500 Bus Compressor plug‑in adds energy, movement, and tone to stereo mixes and subgroups just like the hardware. Easily punch up low frequencies using API's patented Thrust® technology, select between "Old” and "New” style compression with feedback or feed‑forward sounds, sharpen your workflow with plug‑in‑only Mix and Headroom controls, and contour your mix's stereo interaction with percent‑based L/R Link controls.
API Preamp
Easily add the same character and tone of API's hit-making 212L mic preamp with a simple two-knob plug‑in, perfect for Apollo owners. Offering the same features found in API's flagship Vision Console, including a Mic/Line switch, dedicated cut filter, and ‑6 dB Line pad, the API Preamp plug‑in lets you record "through" the iconic preamp in real time using Apollo interfaces, with low DSP use. And with Unison technology, you get all of the classic preamp’s impedance, gain staging “sweet spots,” and circuit behaviors that have made it legendary.
API 500 EQ Collection
Faithfully capturing the punch, transparency, and tight imaging of API’s iconic vintage EQs, the API 500 EQ Collection expertly emulates these classic tone shapers. The API 550A offers three overlapping bands of parametric EQ, independent 50 Hz to 15 kHz band-pass filter, and selectable peaking/shelving modes. The API 560 plug‑in lets you sculpt with ten bands of graphic EQ, ideal for crafting with surgical precision. Plus, API’s “Proportional Q” intuitively widens bandwidth at lower boost/cut levels and narrows it at higher levels, giving you more control over your mix.
Note: The API Complete UAD Bundle does not include LUNA API Console Emulation or API Summing Extensions.

Still a novice after only 10 years of mixing, but even my ears can tell this lends a beautiful sound and an ease of use that is most welcome. The preamp and EQ's are a joy to use, it's pretty hard to make material sound bad using them. The gate is super easy to dial-in and the compressor is nice and punchy. Maybe a mix dial for the comp and an output trim under the fader in a future update would make the whole package perfection.

I loved this plug in until the last updates
This plugin is my best friend for my guitar, but it's not formatting correctly since the last two updates. I can only see the top quarter of the plugin now. M1 MacBook Pro OS Sequoia 15.3.2. Hopefully y'all fix it soon. This plug in really helps with the noise and punch through the mix. I always use the noise gate, the compression and great EQ

It's like having a world-class analog console right at my fingertips
I'm blown away by the API Vision Channel Strip Collection! This plugin has completely transformed the sound of my productions. Every little tweak to the knobs makes a noticeable difference in the overall tone. I'm particularly impressed with the gate, compressor and the eq!! The sound is incredibly rich and warm, and it adds a professional polish to my mixes. If you're looking to elevate your audio, I highly recommend giving this plugin a try.

nice channel strip
it works great, a channel strip with the famous sound, of course it is not really sounding like the real thing, as I have some Api Hardware, but if you dig in deeper, it is coming close, what I don`t like about the plugins, is, that you have to be online to make them work...I think nobody likes that-
H. Bruun
Sounds great. Clean, clear and smooth.
The API Preamp delivers warm and smooth saturation. Especially noticeable in the hi frequencies.

Clean and warm saturation.
Sounds great. Adds a clear and warm touch to the hi frequencies. Sounds surprisingly nice on heavy distorted guitars.

The real thing … and then some.
API has always been a favourite of mine, specially for recording guitars., The midrange EQs works perfectly for the job, not harsh but punchy. The Q curve sharpens or widens in relation to the gain you apply and can sweeten or cut the harmonics you’re looking for in a musical manner. I’ve worked on a dozen API analogue consoles over the years and used numerous API plugins but it’s only UAD that have really nailed the feel, colour and grain of the legendary consoles. Being compatible with the Apollo mix engine makes it the prefect recording tool, pre-amp, EQ, compression and gate all with zero latency. It’s become my ‘go to’ input plugin for the vast majority of my in the box recording and mixing.

Magic!
API Vision is an excellent plugin. It’s a valuable tone shaper. An instant favorite of mine.

need to try and learn, so much character but not for beginners. never love the SSL G-Bus Glue, cause API 2500 is much easier and punchier!
