Incredibly Good
Sometimes I think to myself, wait a minute, I now have enough plugins to get by with them and I have to put in the time to get to know them well. But now I'm amazed again and how does UA manage to make something like this, so incredibly good.

Go for it..
I had the oxide 1st. I like this on the master bus and the oxide for most tracks.
This thing has all the options and sounds great so far. I'm done after this last plugin... lol

Ampex® ATR-102 Mastering Tape Recorder
De las mejores herramientas para master, le agrega mucho color y una agradable saturación, lo recomiendo

Great tape!
One of the best tapes plugins that i've tried.

Top notch
This is a wonderful plugin, have found it useful in tracking and mix scenarios. No idea if it sounds like a tape machine as I haven’t used one for over twenty years but when it works it works really well at adding an elusive, subtle, weighty, gluey, dimensional sauce.

The Long Wait Is Over!
I’ve been waiting for this to go native for a very long time. I used to own the satellite and used this on many, many masters. I decided to get rid of that clunky device and unfortunately, this was one of my biggest pain points missing from my workflow after. We are SO back!

Brilliant
Hands down, the best tape emulations I've heard. And I've tried them all, paid or free, big developers or indie. Plus, between the Ampex and the Studer, each with versatile adjustment options, you can cover the entire range of tape timbres you may want.
Any of them, when used on a track and gain adjusted well, instantly adds texture, depth, a beautiful mid focus, the right kind of brilliance (no brightness, which, to me, means harshness, but sparkly brilliance - you can harshen it out, if you want to, but why would you?), a very well balanced rounding of transients, keeping - even adding punch and openness, but removing harshness, thinness and tin. They also remove mud in a beautiful way - rebalance the freq spectrum very well. Between these and the preamp sims I use, these are the plugins that almost by themselves give reamped DI tracks, or virtual instrument based, the polish, depth and quality of pro analog recordings. Repeated instances of each - tracks and master - pres and summers on all tracks and buses, and you're almost there. A little space/reverb for 3D, and you're there.
And I love the gain matching for the Luna extensions (native, too, for Ampex).
If I had any complaints, they would be these:
- For Ampex, the center position on the Input gain knob corresponds to almost the max position on the Output gain, in terms of the calibration for matched gain. That allows you very little room to decrease the Input gain, before the Out maxes out, and then the gain matching no longer works. I think the gain matching should be calibrated for both knobs in the central positions, which would allow for the full range of gain settings while maintaining an even signal.
- The automatic gain matching for both plugins increases the output level a little - not too much, but noticeable - once you increase the saturation. I think the matching algorithm should take that saturation into account, so that the out precisely match the in.
- In-Out linking (gain matching) should be implemented for for the native version of Studer, too, not just the extension. (For Oxide, too)
Beyond that, no reproach. Excellent sound, plenty of adjustments available, and the gain matching is always extremely useful. Just needs to be improved, and available throughout the series. Among the plugins the make me the happiest, and certainly my go to for tapes.

Life of worship
Incredible software. Other than being told I have to buy an additional Ilok usb to use off line. I do not connect my computer to mix, master or record
And now I have to in order to use software?

Amazing
Best tape emulation plugin I’ve used. Absolutely love its sound and how versatile it is. Being able to choose between different tape formulas and heads to find the sound I’m looking for is a game changer for me. Quickly became a mainstay on my master bus.

Disadvantaged version of the DSP-based plugin
The native version does not include the usability as a tape delay, calibration tones, or continuous level controls for the analog noises (wow, flutter, hiss, hum). Otherwise great plugin, but this stunting of the older version isn't really comprehensible without further explanation, but actually the marketing was somewhat misleading in this respect.

En duda
No soy amante de usar simuladores de cinta, porqué se puede lograr un coloreo análogo sin tantos procesos. Lo estoy probando y veo que hay que hacer muchos ajustes para que no desequilibre la dinámica y más aún que si ya tiene uno en un balance correcto ambos canales, después de aplicar este plugin existe una enorme diferencia en el resultado final.
Tristemente si está emulación no está en la forma nativa para trabajarlo en cualquier DAW y solamente trabaja en conjunto con LUNA, decepciona ello, ya que si uno no obtiene esa versatilidad nativa no vale la pena pagar por esta emulación.
Se entiende que pagan por poder explotar una licencia en base a un plugin, pero si tuvieran la intuición de venderlo de forma NATIVA, habrá un gran consumo, respecto al trabajo de este plugin la verdad se pueden lograr resultados iguales con otras emulaciones.
Lejos de todo hagan caso a las reseñas no solo positivas o de halago, son muy importantes estos tipos de reseñas también para mejorar las emulaciones, no solo es marketing, es ofrecer también una emulación que sea imprescindible para los muchos ingenieros que lo usen.

Can't go wrong with it.
Waited for the Native version for a long time, love it! There wasn't a time that it went on my master bus and didn't make it sound better.

I was just going to check it out...
I was just going to check it out for a bit then remove it from the session, but as I started working with it I found a warmth and clarity that I remember from my time in studios back in the 1970s and 1980s. I always used 456 for recording and mix down and I was glad that is one of the emulations. Loving the sound!

¡Plugin muy resultón! Es posible obtener resultados fantásticos y profesionales.
En mi experiencia, este es un plugin que sin ser muy complicado permite obtener resultados muy, muy adecuados de saturación armónica emulando el wardware original. Dedicándole un poco de tiempo se puede llegar a obtener resultados verdaderamente muy pro siempre y cuando el trabajo de mezcla sea correcto y bien equilibrado.
Lo recomiendo ampliamente frente a otras opciones que hay en el mercado porque los resultados pueden ser muy diferentes dependiendo de cómo se combinen los parámetros, y combinándolo con EQ posterior o tal vez y dependiendo del caso compresión + EQ.

GREAT
Mi penultimo paso en la cadena de master, es mágico!
P. Phorun
Absolutely great.
Can not complain anything with this plugin.I use it in every song.

The Best I Have Used
I am really loving the ATR. It has its flavor and is currently the favorite of my tape plugins. It has a fair amount of tweakability without being overwhelming. It's an oldie but a goodie!
Great job UA!

It is not blurry, but warm all over!
I've only been using it for a short time, but it's true! It is not blurry, but warm all over!
