UAD: The Industry’s Most Respected Collection of Audio Plug-Ins
From serious home recordists to multi-platinum mix engineers, UAD
Powered Plug-Ins have been winning over audio professionals for more
than 10 years. The reason is simple. No other plug-ins so faithfully
capture the sound and behavior of classic analog equipment — from
rare compressors and equalizers, to vintage reverb processors and
tape machines.
The UAD library features over 90 plug-ins,
co-developed with the biggest brands in audio. These plug-ins can be
purchased with UAD-2 hardware from retailers as part of bundled
packages
Professional QUAD Processing Power, Wherever You Go
Featuring four individual Analog Devices SHARC processors, the
UAD-2 Satellite DSP Accelerator's outboard processing “supercharges”
your host computer — letting you run larger mixes, filled with
rich, sonically complex plug-ins.
The UAD-2 Satellite can
be integrated alongside UAD-2 PCIe DSP Accelerator cards and the UAD
Apollo interface, for truly scalable mixing power. And because it’s
portable, the UAD-2 Satellite lets you travel with your UAD plug-ins,
wherever you mix on a FireWire-equipped Mac or PC.
Available as Core or Custom Software Packages
The Core package includes the Analog Classics plug-in bundle, while Custom includes the Analog Classics bundle, and a choice of any three individual UAD plug-ins at registration.
UAD Plug-In Craftsmanship: The Science Behind the Scenes
In developing UAD plug-ins, UA’s engineering group undertakes a thorough physical modeling of classic audio hardware — “rebuilding” vintage analog gear in the digital world, component by component. That’s how UAD plug-ins replicate the exact, sometimes quirky, behavior of analog hardware — bringing its rich, three-dimensional sound and harmonics "in the box."
Upgrade to the Ultimate Collection of UAD Plug‑Ins
UAD Accelerators include a suite of plug-ins right out of the box, with Teletronix® LA‑2A and UA 1176 compressors, Pultec® EQs, and more.
