Fantastic piece of software
Well, it's really hard but I had to let my hardware go after a lot of testing comparing with the plugin. Classic Bass, Drums, Vocal AND on the 2Bus.
Fantastic work UA!!!!!

Just like the hardware
Just like the hardware .. It leaves transients thru and the rest you can compress to taste !

Just like the hardware, it leaves room for the initial transients and the rest can be compressed to taste. Love it !

Underwhelming; fell short of expectations
I found this compressor plugin to be underwhelming and disappointing. Obviously it is famous and has a reputable name and legacy, but it didn't deliver the sound I expected it to. The Fairchild is well-known for having like 20(-something) tubes in it, but when I used this plugin, I hardly got any of that colour or expected tube saturation, and when I drive the input more, it very easily distorts in an unpleasant way. I don't think I've ever used this because it has never worked for me. I regret buying this. If I'd tried it before buying, I wouldn't have bought it. You should try it yourself to see if it works for you.

Must-have for acoustic guitars
Let me tell a little story. One day, I found myself looking for a compressor for acoustic guitars. I needed something that was smooth-sounding, but with a fast-enough attack to capture my strumming. I heard that the LA-3A had been described as somewhere between an 1176 and an LA-2A, so I tried the LA-3A, and it was exactly what I needed. I bought the native license for it immediately after trying for the first time. You just have to try it on acoustic guitars for yourself too.

Unique and absolutely beautiful compressor - I love it
This is an amazing compressor plugin. It has a unique and bold sound, so it's not for everything, but I find that it sounds really good on most kick drum samples and some snare drum samples. I also sometimes use it for piano if I want the piano's attack to cut through the mix. It has a special kind of non-linearity, so you really need to experiment by turning knobs to find the sweet spot on a per-signal basis, but once you do find that sweet spot, I'm quite confident in saying that you're gonna love the sound. I think it has some kind of under-the-hood internal sidechain filter and/or and EQ curve on the output, because I find that it really accentuates the high-mids... or maybe I'm using it wrong, I don't know. But for me, I tend to leave the ratio on the default 4:1, and then tweak the threshold knob until I get about 10dB of gain reduction - that's the sweet spot for me. Sometimes I find that even lowering or raising the output gain has an effect on the sound (I don't know why that is or how it works, but it just is for me). Anyway, definitely try this plugin on electric piano, acoustic piano, kick drum and snare drum. If you don't dislike it, you will definitely love it.

DBX 160
**Title: Elevating My Sound: DBX 160 Compressor Review**
Having recently tested the DBX 160 Compressor, I am genuinely thrilled by its performance. This powerhouse not only met but exceeded my expectations in every aspect.
The sound quality is outstanding, preserving the authenticity of my recordings with its transparent compression. From vocals to drums, it adds a professional touch that enhances the overall audio experience.
What truly impressed me was its dynamic range. It handles a wide range of input levels, allowing for both subtle compression and aggressive limiting. The control it offers over attack and release times is precise and responsive, making it perfect for various musical styles.
Beyond its performance, the DBX 160's build quality is impressive. Its intuitive controls and compact size make it a joy to use in my studio. Plus, its dual functionality as a compressor and limiter gives me the flexibility I need.
I am particularly pleased with its minimal noise floor, ensuring that every detail of my recordings shines through without unwanted artifacts.

Beautiful
Quite honestly, the thought of using presets on anything gives me a rash - but on this synthesizer they are so good.. I use 'em. Universal Audio did something very special here. Highly recommended. Thank you.

Perfectly Captured!
I have two of the real analog devices which I use on bass gtr and snare when mixing hybrid. This plug-in is soooooo close…

Super Klang

Low end monster
I was shocked at how much low end was forced forward by this compressor. I can understand why so many like it on kick and bass. It’s a great compressor!

Feel the difference
Easy to use, sounds very good, uses little UAD processor power, what more could you want.

My go to plugin for bass
This is my go to plugin for bass, I love the texture it adds to the bass and how it brings it to the front of the mix so much better than any other compressor that I own.

Great for electric guitar buss squeeze
I use this on my rhythm guitar buss to lock in the left and right guitars to be more level. This is the best compressor for the job. Works great!
