I moved my first steps into learning mixing/mastering on a SSL AWS 924. I loved that sound on the channel strips and compressor. As you already know, those are desks that cost a fortune....

Warm, soft and pretty compressor.
I use uad's many compressors. 1176, 175-b, 176, Shadow Hill, LA-2A, Fairchild, SSL, 33609 etc. All are very interesting compressors that sound differently. The SSL 4000 G Bus Comp is...

This is one of the 2-3 sterebus compressors that I use nowadays. And I’m not a big fan of compression on master bus. But this one truly ADDS to the song - not just compresses it. I feel 3d vibe and overall a shift in the feel of the record and I love it - definitely adds to the industry professional sound we’re all looking forD. Flett

Industry standard plug-ins!
I moved my first steps into learning mixing/mastering on a SSL AWS 924. I loved that sound on the channel strips and compressor. As you already know, those are desks that cost a fortune. Even if is not the emulation of the SSL AWS 924 that I'm used to, the sound of this plug-ins is amazing as you expect from SSL. I have compared those plugins to few direct competitors and I guarantee that the UA version is superior quality!

Warm, soft and pretty compressor.
I use uad's many compressors.
1176, 175-b, 176, Shadow Hill, LA-2A, Fairchild, SSL, 33609 etc.
All are very interesting compressors that sound differently.
The SSL 4000 G Bus Comp is my favorite compressor.
The reason is that it sticks well in any case.
The SSL 4000 G Bus Comp does not spoil the original source.
I also use the legacy version as well.
It's soft, warm and feels good.
When recording instruments, I sometimes use the SSL 4000 G Bus Comp instead of an equalizer to create color.
Be sure to try the 14-day demo and see if it works for you.
I love G compS. Auclair

Very good
Sounds really good and defined.
C. Torres Carpizo
Amazing
It is a DSP hog so I mainly use it for tracking, vocals and wow! It does the job, if you record with any UA interface it is a must have...
A. Grigoriadis
nice plugin but loses then it comes to resources consumption
the sound of this plugin is better than the waves emulation and has a nice warm and clean sound , but it's resource hungry like hell !
F. Quillet
Great
I use it with a C414 and it work amazing.
K. Kajiya
That's great!
UAD is the most beautiful plugin in the world.

AMAGING！
The best emulation of SSL console!

As you would expect...
The SSL 4000E channel strip sounds as good as I have come to expect from any UAD product. This probably sounds a little anal, but I would really like a little more variety in the presets that could include synths, pianos, strings and horns....just a bigger variety to get started. A little thing, but I think a good one. Otherwise, you guys all know out there by now that it will sound fab!...steve

Punchy and tight
This channel tighten up my tracks, and give them a little punch. Nice overall sound i think !!

The Best
So I have been sifting through various channel strip and amp emulation plugins to find the right sound for monitoring bass guitar, and then voila! This SSL strip has hit a major home run in my book! I look forward to testing it with all different kinds of instruments and vocals, but it’s hard to put the bass down!

Best
The best emulation of SSL console! Gives great punch to voice. Absolutely one of the most useful channel strips available and easy to use.
A. Moleri
Legendary Sound
I've used countless SSLs before, and every time i find myself using a DAW I miss the simplicity and the sound of it. No emulation ever came closer than this one, to the point where I can no longer tell if I'm using the real deal or not. The sound is crisp and clean, and the preamp section is simply amazing if used with Unison. I strongly reccomend this one.

The hardware on your computer
So.
After years of recording, reamping, mixing, glueing and mastering through it, I purchased this one out.
And, maaaaaaan, does it deliver!!!
I mean, the plugin in itself is quite impressive, but with that Unison tech inside, it just changed the way I track things. Vocals, guitars and bass, keys and drums...I mean...this thing brought the analog sound to my digital workflow in a second.
In a matter of second, it just facilitate my whole workflow.
Just get this to get it.A. Lizama
Impressed
I have not used any real SSL gear before, but I am impressed with the sound of this plug in, especially the fast compressor character, is very usable for room mics, percussion tracks. The EQ is amazing, very musical and transparent. Overall very happy. I wanted this in my arsenal for a long time, but now I payed around $100 with promotions and coupons, which I think is awesome!
