Well that was a hassle
So the gear works as advertised but please note that this will NOT boost processing power for audio being recorded in realtime. Anything coming in on your Apollo will only be able to use what every juice you've got on that machine and will not be able to harness resources from a satellite/PCIe. I wish this was something that was a little more clear from the advertisements but not understanding this caveat was my fault so I shouldn't knock UAD for this I suppose. And as not having this isn't really a game changer for me at this point I suppose I'm mostly happy with the unit.
The HASSLE was dealing with UAD support trying to figure out what the promotion package would include as I already owned Ultimate 8. It probably took about 7-8 emails to get everything somewhat worked out. My case run up the chain to the supervisor, I guess for being one of the noisy ones? I don't know. Even then it was often unclear or unanswered. I would leave a list of about 4-5 very concisely worded questions but in their reply they would only answer 1 or 2 of the questions and not all that clearly at that.
Even as I am writing this for example, there is one unanswered question from UAD still sitting in my mailbox:
"I am planning on purchasing a Townsend Labs Sphere l22. According to the Townsend website I will receive a download voucher for the UAD Sphere l22 plugin upon purchase of the microphone. Could you please confirm that this is indeed the case?"
Is that an annoying/difficult question? Does UAD realize the reason why I would like this question answered when I have a vouchers for 4 free plugins (what I eventually received as in exchange for the promotion plugins). Boys wake up!

OCTO & QUAD
With an Octo & Quad core PCIe card, I get a powerful system to use UAD plug-ins, with sounds very great !!!
c. hölscher
Plug and play, how it should be.
Build into the computer with the card I already owned.
Starting the computer, it worked imediately.
That is how it should be. Great!

La tengo linkada con una satellite y con un total de 6 dsp puedo abordar proyectos bastante serios.

PCIe Octo
Once upon a time, I had a UAD-1. Now this one, fast as a rocket and easy to use.

Octo PCIe-Power
I have 3 Otcto's on my System and it's a really fun to work with all the plugins from UAD.
There is power more than enough for Mixing and Mastering together. I can absolutely recommend !

Welcome to the Party
If you are struggling with finding authentic sounding plugins that don’t dominate your computer, then look no further. UAudio is pushing the envelope fully open and giving its users the tools needed for a successful production. Kudos

Octo PCIe
This new card is a replacement for another also new card that abruptly failed after three weeks use. Suddenly went dead and the computer simply reported that there was 'no PCIe' in that slot & presented same report no matter what slot was placed in. Needless to say this cause significant problems for clients whose projects were mid-mix and where UAD plugs could no longer be loaded. The card was eventually replaced under warranty and this one has been fine so far, but has not reached one month of use just yet. Shall now be keeping my eye on this and hopefully it survives to the one year warranty date.

UAD-2 OCTO
UAD-2 Octo core PCIe card. I find out this is the best platform for audio processing in multi-track mixes in my studio. Powerful and fast!
F. WIOROWSKI
Powerful
A unique way to get full power with these amazing plugins

UAD-2 Octo PCIe Card
Just added an Octo UAD-2 PCIe card to my system that already has a Duo PCIe card so now I have all the power I need for my needs to run my all favourite plugins.
Can't say enough about what I get from UAD Plugins.. The sound quality and inspiration and ease of use, I will never produce with out them.. Smoke blown intended, can't recommend them enough, especially for someone like myself that wants to harness all the different options but can't afford the Hardware. Have fun!! Cheers Sam

UAD-2Quad PCIE
Works like a charm. Faultless in operation. All plugins I have purchased so far have been of exceptional quality.

기분 좋은 사운드, 쾌적한 작업환경을 위한 최고의 선택
AMD CPU를 탑재한 윈도우 시스템에서 사용중입니다.
믹싱시 최대한 시그널 체인의 간소화를 염두하는지라 걸기만 해도 좋은 효과를 보여주는 UAD 플러그인들을 선호하는 편입니다. 사용중인 Apollo X8의 헥사코어 DSP로는 부족한 부분이 있어 아무래도 윈도우 시스템에서 안정적으로 사용할 수 있을 법한 PCIe 버전을 구입했습니다. 새틀라이트와 다르게 딱히 외부전원에 대해 신경쓰지 않아도 되어 좋고 역시나 목적에 맞게 더 쾌적한 작업을 할 수 있게 되어 기쁩니다!
