Verified Purchaser zZounds has verified that this reviewer purchased this specific product from us.
I've been producing for 15 years and engineering for 8 and have not found any plugins that came close to emulating analog gear the way these UAD plugins do. I'm actually mad I'm just getting into them. The sound quality is above and beyond what I expected. Even the review videos I watched online didn't do them justice. Trust me, this will be one of the best investments you will make for your studio.

Musical Background:

Since the 4th grade. Saxophone, keyboard, guitar, bass, drums
