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

Very good sounding reverb!
In short - the best emulation of an EMT 140 reverb.

Ideal plate
The plate is designed perfectly, on vocals magic happens, the right depth and atmosphere appears. Also on the instruments is magic. I take off my hat, thanks to the UAD.

Love This Reverb
Great on vocals!
M. Leo
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.
M. Rath
Amazing Reverb
Seems to work on just about every source
C. Jaramillo
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.

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!

good

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.
