Included Plug-Ins
Studer A800 Multichannel
Tape RecorderArtists and engineers have long gravitated to the warm analog sound, solid low-end, and overall presence of the Studer A800 Multichannel Tape Recorder. The UAD plug-in faithfully models the entire multitrack tape circuit path and electronics of a popular A800 machine from Allen Sides' collection at Ocean Way Studios — plus the distinct sounds of multiple tape formulas. You can also use the Studer A800 Multichannel Tape Recorder as a LUNA Extension, and easily add warmth and tape character across your entire mix on a per channel basis.
Ampex ATR-102 Mastering
Tape RecorderSince its inception, the legendary two-channel Ampex ATR-102 Mastering Tape Recorder has turned recordings into records. With its cohesive sound, punch, and ability to provide subtle-to-deep tape saturation, the Ampex ATR-102 plug-in perfectly emulates what is considered by many engineers to be the best-sounding tape machine for final mixdown. You can also use the ATR-102 as a LUNA Extension and deliver analog-infused master recordings with iconic Ampex gloss. The perfect complement to the workhorse Studer A800 Multichannel Tape Recorder, the ATR-102 Mastering Tape Recorder provides the final “analog polish" to your mixes.

I love this analog simulator, I made a very good investment
E. Starzhynskiy
Professional tape machine (more professional control can be added)
Great tape machine for all instruments and general mixing. I would also like to see a button for switching the VU meter "before" and "after" the tape. For more visual control and not only auditory control. That would be great :)
k. salo
So depressed....
I have Windows 10 and Cubase. In Cubase this software complains it's not connected to hardware.
There is no email adress to ask help. Only articles to read...
Please, help me. I need this important Studer...!J. Crisp
Sounds like tape to me
Love all the presets and control you have over it, would really like to see a native version, it does eat some DSP

My go to Tape Recorder

Studer A800 ‘MULTITRACK’
As a harmonic colouration device this is nice. The controls do things. It isn’t noisy. It can do subtle and extreme shifts. BUT, it’s supposed to be a 24 channel tape recorder. It’ll work in mono or stereo, but that’s it. Where are the other 22 channels? Without the nonlinearities of a fully modelled machine spread across 24 sources, and the depth which that creates, it’s just a two channel preamp with tape-style eq. UAD missed an opportunity to make something truly awesome here.

Powerfull
Super

Awesomeness
Easy to use and sounds great
E. George
Classy
I spent a long time waiting for the Native versions of this plug in. I’m glad it has finally arrived. It’s such a joy to use. Gets you to the tape sound you’ve been looking for without the hassle of machine maintenance and high costs of tape. Sure, you don’t get to brag about your 1/2 inch, 1 inch or 2 inch (for the big machines) girth but if no one ever sees you producing then genuinely what’s the worry. I put one on each buss on a gentle setting and stack the sound into the mixbus. It gives me what I need sound wise. The interface could do with a refresh for higher screen resolutions maybe….my only criticism.

Tried & True Classic Nailed on the Head!
If you know what an actual multi track reel to reel sounds like, you’ll be familiar with the sound that this plug in imparts. It’s amazing to be honest and will save a ton of time and physical tape cost in the future. Not that I’d get rid of the actual machines, but I can see a lot more ease of use and sonic benefits from this wonderful emulation of a tried and true classic.
