Worth updating
I take advantage of a promotion and update the stock LA-2A to this collection and it's worth every penny. Each version has his own character and they sound amazing.

Great channel strip
This is simply an easy to use great sounding channel strip. I think my favourite part of it would be the preamp which is very clean and aggressive but has a slight analogue warmth to it. It just sounds fantastic.
On top of that there's a very good compressor as well as one of the better gates I've come across. The EQ section is not my favourite, but it does the job. The 2db steps can be a bit too much sometimes.
A big plus is that you can turn off the sections you don't use to save DSP. For some reason you can't turn off the preamp however.
I had to choose between this and the 1073 because I couldn't afford both. I chose the 1073 because it had more character and nicer EQ. But I will get this one as soon as I can afford it.

Great Emulation of A Classic
Back in the late 1980's and early 1990's, I had the pleasure of experiencing the real deal 224 XL. This plug brings back memories of the lushness of Lexicon classics. Like the hardware, you have to work it and I would say that this is not the reverb to use if you're looking for easy ambient realism per se. This is an impressionistic reverb with a fingerprint. The included presets are great starting points but it's important to dig in and learn the unit. That's why I give it 4 stars. My experience with the HW was an artist so I never learned the in's and out's of its operation but I'm learning it now and love it. I wouldn't make this my only reverb but it's a must-have for your sonic arsenal.
UAudio does it again! Thanks.

Presence and clarity
There is a very clear sense in this reverb.
And I feel the dense depth.
Really, really, nice.

This and la2a are the best emulations you can find.
For me the best emulations to date.

So Good
Such an upgrade from the legacy version. Silky. Smooth. Shockingly close to the original in sound.

Essential
Always loved the 1176 sounds that I heard in the studio I worked in. Being able to dial in key sounds (especially with the AE) has been essential to enhancing the sound of my personal studio and has for sure taken my mixes to a higher level.

OMG!!!
The API easily sounds like the very best channel strip I have ever heard. It is a musical miracle. Best purchase I have ever made. Thank you!!
T. Friesecke
Perfect
Just a perfect emulation of the great hardware. And so much better than the legacy-version of the plug-in.

Best plugin sound available!
This is in a different league to most other plugins / native - it just adds that extra thickness that is so hard to get otherwise!
A+

Incredible
I write a lot of techno and this is go to Limiter TOP!!!!!!!
B. Klukovic
Simple and sweet!
My limiter of choice, you can do so much with them on almost all kind of tracks. My favorite combo is a 1176 in front to squeeze and add some dirt with "all-buttons-IN" and then place the LA-2A in the back of it OR vice versa, put a LA-2A at first to limit and to even out the sound a bit (but only a little bit) and the compress it. Unfortunately I cannot give examples, would be too long for this review box.
Another swiss army knife collection, MUST HAVE!

Oh my dearest Studer :*
I tried the demo and was astonished what is possible with tape saturation.
You can add not only warmth, but shaping e.g. your whole track in every (analog) direction when it comes to rock, stoner, jazz, swing, etc.. I was able to fullfill the dreams of a stonerrock band I recorded which demanded a kind of analog "rolled-of-highs" sound with nice and subtle saturation. And everything without loosing their mojo; the studer added in opposite of this MORE mojo and this is only ONE of the cases I was able to give the musicians what they wanted!

A pack which covers everything!!
If you don´t have the money for this pack, why the heck did you buy a UAD platform? This pack was one of the first I bought and it serves me more than well!!
Every revision has it´s own charakter and in the beginning you have to play around A LOT to find out the one which suits you the best. But I used all of them with great success on everything I mixed and I am really glad having them! Don´t forget to watch tutorials to get the best out of this excellent compressors!!!
B. Klukovic
Smooth and clear!!!
It´s just WOW when you turn on the highs on the EQ-P1A and THEN roll them off at the same time. This kind of coloration can be only made with this one without harshness and that "plastic" feeling of other kind of derivations of this EQ.
I heard also the hardware and must admit that the UAD version doesn´t lack the deepness of which everyone talks all the time, for me it´s sounds round, full and perfect. GOOD JOB UAD!! :)))

So glad I purchased
I'm tring out this bundle and so far I'm happy I made the purchase. Love everything these unit have to offer Im still learning how they work but so for from what I have learned the sound and CPU processing is great

Can't work without it
This set is amazing. The eq alone is just bliss. I have so many other eq's that just don't compare. My current go to setting on the eq is 10K with 2-4db boost. I regret not buying it sooner and using it on my previous mix-downs.
