Simple UI, but sounds very good
Excellent plate reverb emulation. Does not have that unpleasent metallic "clang" many others do. This is very smooth. UI is very intuitive. My choice of plate reverbs at the moment.

The best leveler for bass guitar
At the moment, for me the best bass guitar leveler there is in plug-in format, compared with many other similar LA-2A plug-ins. I don't know what UA LA-2A does differently than others, but it sounds so good! UI is very simple and intuitive, as it should be. This is not the chepeast one out there, but this is my choice.

Yup.
Been eyeing this for a while and finally grabbed it. Tracked a vocal with it for the first time and my purchase was justified. Didn't have to do much to the recording during the mix, as it came in sounding killer. The high-end is so musical. Also been putting my electric bass through it. Very impressive plugin!

Glue
My favorite API 2500 emulation, such a lovely, transparent sound.

Brilliant
One of the best tape emulations that I've ever used.

More detailed than any other I could listen to
The texture of sound is very ok. And contrary to many others VST for Steinway (Pianoteq, Arturia, etc.) you don't have this clumsy sound in the 3rd octave. Some find it too roomy. Not in my book. The "dry" VST I could test are weird because the sound is unnatural and adding a reverb does not really change the basic tone. Maybe it's a lack of harmonics, don't know. Anyway, for the price this one is really a bargain and the most pleasing one for jazz sound.

Gorgeous, but please make this for Apollo too
This plug-in deserves five stars for its beautiful, velvety analog punch, but UA should really make this - and all future plug-ins - for both the Apollo hardware and native platforms.
It doesn’t seem fair that longtime loyal customers who invested in the Apollo units, at great expense, are suddenly seeing UA plug-ins not being supported by the Apollo hardware. The fact that we cannot use these native-only plug-ins in Console just seems like a major oversight. Please do the right thing and make your plug-ins fully functional on both platforms.

If Only...
I'd love to write a review but I can't use the software because my version of OSX won't run UA Connect. I was expecting just to download the software as its a native version but you can't.

Great Tone!
Really good Plugin, sound like Hell!

Almost perfect…
This plugin surprised me a lot. Honestly, I can say it’s my new favorite compressor for almost any use in mixing and mastering. Absolutely incredible.
I’m only giving it four stars because it can’t be used with DSP on my Apollo. I have no idea why UAD did that, I really hope that it could be solved soon.

Simple and effective!
This compressor is amazing. It does perfectly what you should expect. Simple and effective, quick to set. Ideal for rhythmic guitars, but useful for other applications too.

Multiple Outputs
I don't see a way to add multiple outputs using different sounds within the same instance of PolyMax but it is easy to use

I don't know how the designers of the hardware did it, they must have spent years on trial and error and critical listening to design the perfect curves and selected frequencies. This thing was absolutely made for music with predominant low end.
Just play your bass and listen for any thing you don't like. Start tuning the low frequencies and in minutes you will hear a familiar sound that is pleasing to the ear. It is quite obvious to me that UA has expertly modeled this piece. They made me feel special because it almost seems like they made this plugin for me. It's incredible, a must have for pop, reggae, hiphop, rnb and jazz.

Sounds expensive but there are some drawback...
Very good sounding VST. There are not a lot of frills and menu options but that is it's charm, to an extent. MIDI learn on any VST in 2023 is a must. Why UA insists on not having this option is beyond me. Just put a right click learn function. Not a lot of wavetable options but the ones that are available are good. The analog emulation is very warm and authentic. The FX section is pretty basic. There is more clicking around and tabs that I care for but the UI is sleek and modern. Overall a good experience.

Sits well in a mix but no midi learn can be an issue..
This VST sits well in a mix. It does have a familiar sound quality comparable to a hardware synth. The UI is simple and modern. The lack of a midi learn function is a minor drawback. Why this is omitted on all UA synth plugins is beyond me. There are work arounds obviously but if your controller doesn't have an option to change CC numbers on the fly then you are stuck. UA likes to keep with the intrinsic nuances of their hardware emulations which is appreciated but at some point the novelty wears off. This synth sounds good and is simple to use. Simple being the operative word.

The best!
The best 1176 ever, the real sound, 1176 like a 1176.

It's a shame

It sounds very good.
However, every time I start it up, I get the message 'PLUG-IN NOT LICENSED'. I use the ua application, uninstall it once, install it again and then start it up.
It's a shame because it's realistic and I like the sound.
