It's that time again, up to 60% off..
All I have is the early UA plugs like Cooper TC / Legacy 2A's etc. and I think it's time to upgrade, so I was thinking.
Capitol Chambers
Galaxy Tape Echo
LA-2A Leveler Collection
1176 Classic Limiter Collection
Manley Vari-MU
And for the 2Buss? Either the Shadow Hills Mastering Comp or API2500?!
I've never really gotten along with summing plugs but any of the UA one's worth a look?

Get the Ampex ATR-102. It's been on my 2 Bus since 2012. You could do an album with just that plug-in alone, it's that good. I'd say it the most useful plug I've ever found.

Capitol Chambers is fantastic. Don’t miss that one! And i really like the 2500. Made me want to buy the hardware.
Neve summing on low ohm adds a lot of color in a unique way. Definitely does nice things for virtual instruments.
Can’t go wrong with your other selections either. UA gets a lot of trash talk thrown their way but their software really is worth it imo. I really like the headroom knob that’s on most (all?) of their comps these days. Great feature.

more then 60%, if you grab one of the 3/6/10 bundles, they give you extra plug in choices.

I think the summing plugs are for Luna, so good if you are going all in with Luna, not good otherwise ?

Dropped the MU off the list, I have an outboard Nu-MU stereo comp and the plug didn't seem quite there. @martin, oh I forgot to mention I stopped using the Ampex because it messed with pro tools ADC to the point it was inducing masses of comb filtering. I use Logic nowadays so I'll give it another go.. Seems Capitol and API 2500 is a must so far, the 1176's hmmm.. I usually use them for mixing ITB drum busses but it seems the API 2500 would do the job, not sure if they're necessary? For shaving peaks whilst tracking I've ordered a 6176 anyway (which has a hardware 1176LN). |

Be advised that the Capitol Chambers is a hungry beast.

I like the API EQ (550/560) and the Neve 1073 a lot. SSL, tape, and 1176 do get used, but I also use other brands for those.
I would also get the Pultec and the Buxom Betty guitar amp.
My most used UAD tape these days is Studer for channels, it's pretty great for driving to get that grimey old sound.
Many of the others I have are asleep for a long time. EMT Plate 140 is another classic.

I've never really gotten along with summing plugs but any of the UA one's worth a look? I get a lot of use out of Galaxy Tape. You can drive it in interesting ways as well. This one is not popular these days (old GUI?) but the Trident A-Range is useful for me. The frequency curves just seem to be set in useful ways for my ear. No gimmicks or simulated box tone, just Trident style curves and sliders. |

The Capitol Chambers are quite nice. I really like the Lexicon 480L, too.
I have a bunch of their plugs. Those come to mind. I use the Studer a lot, too.

You can get Bax from Plug in Alliance. It is a good plug in but I wouldn’t pay UA prices.

50% off on the ampex and studer. That is difficult to resist! I agree about the EMTs by the way - they are great.
I can't believe how many new items UA has for plugs since I last looked!

If you use the Unison stuff definitely put your money there. It’s the thing you can’t get from native plugs. |
