Step Up to UAD Powered Plug-Ins and Genuine Neve Analog Sound.

Overview

The UAD-2 SOLO Neve DSP Accelerator Card is the perfect way to add the sound of genuine Neve analog equipment to music produced on a Mac or PC. This single-processor PCIe card “powers” the included Neve 88RS Channel Strip and 33609 Compressor plug-ins - widely regarded as the world’s most authentic Neve emulations - as well as providing access to the complete UAD Powered Plug-Ins library, including analog classics from Roland, BOSS, Empirical Labs, EMT, Fairchild, Harrison, Helios, Little Labs, Pultec, SPL, Teletronix and more. Furthermore, the UAD-2 SOLO Neve package includes a $100 plug-in voucher.

The UAD-2 SOLO card features a built-in Analog Devices SHARC processor to power the full range UAD Powered Plug-Ins, freeing up your Mac or PC’s internal processor for other mixing or virtual instrument duties. Whether you use Pro Tools, Logic, Cubase, Nuendo or Performer, a UAD-2 SOLO can provide rich, analog sound quality that would be difficult or impossible to achieve with a native Mac- or PC-based system.

Developed by the industry’s finest engineering team, and backed by frequent new software and plug-in releases, the UAD-2 is the platform of choice for many of the world's top musicians, producers and engineers.
