EMT 140 Classic Plate Reverberator plug-in
Three Expertly Emulated Plates
The EMT 140 plug-in offers three distinct flavors of the classic EMT hardware. Plates A and B model the original EMT electronics system, for which the plates themselves had intentionally not been tuned in some time. Conversely, Plate C — the most full-frequency plate — uses the more modern Martech electronics which had just been fully serviced.
New Controls, More Flexibility
WIth “plug-in only” features such as Balance, Width, and Modulation, you’re able to harness the EMT 140 in ways previously unavailable with the hardware. Pinpoint a mono snare reverb with the Balance control, spread out strings with the Width function, or use the Modulation feature to add subtle shimmer, or an intense reverb trail, to a lead vocal. By adding these controls to the original EMT circuit, you’re afforded tons of plate reverb textures for all of your sources.
“The EMT 140 plug-in is Unbelievable. Love it. Use it all the time.”
– Vance Powell (Jack White, The Dead Weather, The Raconteurs)“Having the EMT 140 plug-in, it’s beautiful, I don’t have to commit to printing the plate.”
– Darrell Thorp (Beck, Radiohead, Charlotte Gainsbourg)“The EMT 140 plug-in is perfect to add some warmth and size to a lead vocal. ”
– Joe Chiccarelli (Jason Mraz, Beck, The Strokes, Morrissey)“The UAD Pultec Pro, along with the EMT 140, are the two main reasons why I can't work without a UAD card in my system.”
– Fab Dupont (Shakira, Santigold)“I use the UAD EMT 140 Plate Reverb on everything.”
– Hans Zimmer (Dark Knight, Gladiator)Customer Reviews

Still the best
I've tried most of the plate reverbs out there. Yes many are good but I keep coming back to this UAD one. It just has the mojo (I know cliche). As well as it's sound,...

Sits just well in the mix
The EMT140 sounds just right creating depth without being obtrusive. Great for a lot of sources, like vocals and snares obviously. Lately I've found it works great on funk guitar...

Lush Plate
My goto plate for vintage vibe on vocals. Would really love to see it included with spark! But one wish: make it easier to dial in exact predelay values!

Love This Reverb
Great on vocals!

Still the best
I've tried most of the plate reverbs out there. Yes many are good but I keep coming back to this UAD one. It just has the mojo (I know cliche). As well as it's sound, the layout of the controls and flexibility for me just outshine all the others.

Amazing Reverb
Seems to work on just about every source

Sits just well in the mix
The EMT140 sounds just right creating depth without being obtrusive. Great for a lot of sources, like vocals and snares obviously. Lately I've found it works great on funk guitar chugging, it just gives space without masking and/or washing it.

Amazing!
I’m a sucker for plate reverbs and the EMT 140 certainly has its place amongst the greats. An absolute must-have for anyone who’s interested in top-quality gear.

I have several reverts available and this has become my go-to.

Perfect
This is very real

Amazing Sounding on Vocals
There’s just something amazing sounding out of this EMT 140. Every time I put this on vocals it just sounds amazing! Get pro sounding takes on your vocals and add this and instantly it will sound radio ready! Not sure why I waited 4 years to get this one but glad I finally own it. If you don’t drop everything and get this and it’ll be on every mix going forward.
J. Harris

F. Aquila

I use It on vocal for deep verb very classy
V. Ruzicic
A must have for drums and vocals
I m amazed how awsome this plugin is…
I. Kravchenko
Nice sound
It seems that I get good sounds from it really quickly. Not much tweaking needed for what I need.
M. Bernabel
Nothing Like It
The very best plate reverb of all time, and its not even close. The tails and decays are god-like. If you track with this verb or mix with it afterwards you can instantly hear your favorite records.
T. Respondek
Authentic
Real authentic emulation wird several plate emulations.

The best plate reverberator plug-ins!
K. Socasau
Dreamy 70's reverb Goodness
One of the best Plate reverb plugin, sounds really close to a original EMT, really efficient to give some room and space like a good analog reverb, all the way through really lush 70s sounds, it's a creative reverb with beautiful long trails
M. Sääf
Best plate reverb!
I've tried them all, reverb junkie but this one, this sounds like the real thing! It's in all my templates now!
