There are a large number of preamp emulations in UA’s plugin catalogue, whether they be mic or instrument preamps. UA’s list of lust-worthy exclusive plugins is truly exhaustive but some special mentions go out to the Capitol Chambers reverb plugin (be sure to check your bank account balance before watching the promo video) and the Softube Vocoder, which is unique in not only being developed by Softube exclusively for the UAD platform but also as an original vocoder unit taking cues from both vintage hardware and modern technology.Īs mentioned earlier, UA’s hardware emulations are considered the industry standard, but the fact that they run on UA’s own hardware (audio interfaces), gives them a unique opportunity to go one step further. UA went as far as to emulate the sonically critical preamp section of this effect, imbued with their own Unison technology, but more on that later. Just add a microphone and you’re good to go.Īnother eye-catcher is the ridiculously powerful and Korg endorsed SDD-3000 delay unit, originally produced in 1982 and made famous by guitarists such as U2’s The Edge. No need to travel to Skywalker Sound to record that next line of dialogue. A great example of this is the AMS Neve DFC (Digital Film Console), an algorithm accurate recreation of the industry-standard post-production console for film and TV. On the other hand, it’s often the more obscure emulations that get UA users particularly excited. Take for example the recently released Neve 1084 preamp and EQ. Of course, their emulations of long time staples like their own 1176 and LA-2A processors set the bar for all other emulations, and UAD plugins are almost exclusively officially endorsed software recreations made in collaboration with the original hardware manufacturer with their branding front and centre. The UAD powered plugin platform is UA’s secret sauce. Unique (and officially endorsed) plugins for any situationĬome for the hardware, stay for the software. We thought we’d share 5 ways UA interfaces will change the way you record and mix, with features and experiences not possible anywhere else. UA interfaces retain a veil of mystique, and those who have never used one before may be wondering what all the fuss is about, considering the variety of interfaces available on the market from different manufacturers. Initially seen as exclusively pro/project studio offerings, UA has evolved their line of interfaces to offer that same pro-level quality and experience to a range of users including home and bedroom producers. Universal Audio’s recording interfaces have been steadily increasing in popularity over the past few years.
