HARMONIC DREAMS
The PULTEC Harmonics is good. You can't get this effect simply from a EQ like fabfilter.

One of the best analog synths… wait-WHAT?!!
It’s incredibly to have this thing as a Plug-in. The sound is bigger than most analog synthesizers. U can save it. Use multiple instances.. it’s awesome

Excellent Rotary Speaker Plugin
This is an excellent rotary speaker plugin I have used.
M. Scherchen
Love me some Leslie!
Not much else to add really. Perfect balance of flexibility and ease of use. Would love if they smoothed out the animation or allowed you to disable it. Sonics are great though!

iLok - UAD fooled me - last time you get my money!
UAD doesn´t allow to put iLok licenses on the (offline) computer.
My last iLok USB Dongle died for an unknown reason and I will NEVER trust this little **** again. Feeling so fooled by you UAD! Cheap move.P. Sviyazov
It just sounds right
Every time I use any of the Space Echo plugins I find it hard to fit them in the mix. But this one. It just sounds like it's always been in my mix, perfectly take a spot!
Y. Lee
Simple & Effective
Excellent quality reverb sound with simple operation. Above all, it is attractive that this plug-in does not take up DSP data.
