My first review... not because I've never loved a UAD plug in before, but because this one turned a GM midi mastering job into a 'record' ... also just the slightest touch of Telectronix and it was alive. Like jumping out of the speakers alive!!

Aces!
I've used other tape sims in the past so was reluctant to try this one thinking it wasn't necessary. But wow, this really does bring something to the table the others don't. It's 'pushy' when I want it to be and gives a nice warmth where needed. Lots of options too!

Great for Apollo Tracking
I like using the Studer and a channel strip to "print to tape" with my Apollo. The Studer adds a nice glue to things. I especially like it for gluing drums together, and it adds some nice tape compression, reducing the need for compressors and EQ later.

Bad Ass, sounds like the real thing but much more flexible and it doesn't take upkeep

Always happy!
Always happy when I think about this plugin. This tool got me out of creative crisis. Yes! This tool is so good! Open up new horizons. And now I can not imagine my job without Studer a800.
P.S. Thanks UA and forgive me for grammatical errors..

Almost magical results!
Quite recently I did a project involving the recording of an Iberian Pipe Organ, from the XVI Century. I used a Jecklin disc with two omni small cardioid mics. When listening back the same I found that the sound was quite natural but missing some more crispness. Tried several typical tools including EQ and exciters without success. Then I tried the Studer A800 plugin... Couldn't believe in the results. The non-linearities of the tape just did the trick! It looked like I'd multi-miced the Organ! Such fine detail! And still sounding absolutely natural! If tape alone works out magic, then there are no words to describe this plugin! UAD guys you touched my heart once again! Your plugins are worth every piece of my hard earned cash!

Try it for yourself
The video demonstrations are OK, but not even close to working with this plugin on your own DAW and your own tracks. So try the demo, listen closely, play around, and you will NOT be sorry. I bought within hours of playing around. You won't need 14 days. haha Bought the AMPEX plugin too.

Stunning ...
... and subtle; I like the Studer much more than the Ampex.
Why? Its more versatile .. great plugin

The Best
This plugin is simply awesome. No other words to describe it. Thank you Universal audio.

First things first...
I add Studer as the first plug in on every track, and I mean every. About half the time, I use an appropriate preset, the other half I leave at default with maybe a few tweaks. It really removes the brittle digital feel that I sometimes hear on my tracks. While subtle, it's real. It's by far my most used plug.

Seems good
I haven't had a chance to delve into this plugin too deeply, but so far it sounds good and adds a nice tape sound. Low cpu means you can use it on individual tracks.

What can I said...
I don't think any one needs some recommendations on this plugin... It just make music sound better!!! I use it all the time and it helps me to create really good separation on my mixes. is amazing on acoustic guitar and drums!

Tubey
If tubey is a word, then that Studer describes it. I picked this over the ATR, not sure why but it just felt better. I've tried out the ATR and I did get it, but I still prefer this better.

Warm it up
This plugin is incredibly cool on guitar tracks - fuzzing it out is what I'm after and found such a great tone when doing that!
S. Gilroy
Not Great
Duy tape, Cranesong Phoenix, and Slate VTM are my first picks but I need the DSP
So I bought it.
T. Marshall
My Go-To Tool
The Studer A800 Plugin is simply amazing with plenty of useful presets. I use this on almost all of my tracks because I love the character the tape brings once the track hits it. It is very user friendly and more visually pleasent than any others I have seen!
R. Kirk
Great variety of tape sounds!
I love experimenting with the various tape formulations, speeds and monitoring choices. Really warms up my bass, drum and vocal tracks!
The only mild bummer really has nothing to do with the plugin itself.. I first learned to record using tape, and the Studer plugin kinda makes me miss the whole deliberate-ness of committing performances to tape.. see what you guys did? :-)
S. Gouillard
Incredible
I have the chance to use the real one and I'm so happy to have this plug-in. On of my fav UA
C. Borneo
analog awesomeness
I can't believe how much character this plug in brings to my sound!....if you are looking for a way to warm up your tracks....look no further :) STUDER 800! period.
