Hey Everybody!
I have been considering buying a UAD-1... I have demoed one a little bit, but didnt have a chance to A/B it to the actual hardware it's replicating. Of course I realize it's not the same, but it seems like a lot of processing for $600. LA-2a, 1176, reverb, nigel, channel strip, pultec. How many instances of each plugin can you run simultaneously? Any compatibility issues?
Thanks,
Jon

The compressor algorithms are indeed nice although for Reverb the TC Powercore ClassicVerb is about 2-3 notches above the UAD Realverb. There will, however, be a (hopefully still free) download of the new "DreamVerb" algorithm for UAD later this summer.
It's a nice card but it has only about one fourth of the Powercore's horsepower :roll: . A couple of Nigels (which for my purposes needed a lot of tweaking to produce a useful sound) and a couple of compressors (at 44.1k) and the card ran out of steam. Kinda disappointing.
Nevertheless, at the bottom line still a good deal at the price and a "must have" for DAW's these days, if nothing else for the compressor algorithms.

Well, I have one and have to say it's fantastic! I love the LA2A
Well, I have one and have to say it's fantastic! I love the LA2A and the 1176...The Reverb program is very nice as well and can do a lot for you!
As far as compatability goes...not sure what you mean in the long run.
Works fine on a PC and I'm not sure on the Mac...haven't paid attention to that side of things!
Cheers
