What They Say

I really like the Cambridge... you can create really extreme EQ curves and really do some surgery if you needed to.

Dweezil Zappa

Zappa Plays Zappa

I love the Cambridge EQ because it sounds great, and also because it lets me adjust it by dragging points on the display.

Elliot Mazer

Neil Young

I turn to the Cambridge EQ for cutting out those unwanted frequencies.

    BRO!... I know its Old! but WOW!.... I remember seeing this plugin in studios when i worked with Prince Royce. Pull'ed it up by mistake and did a high pass. MAN! better then "De-esser's on the Mix Bus Chain..... Fixed all my issues... Fixed that Sharp End Frequency that Fatigue's you ears.... & it is low on DSP!

    Found the sound in minutes

    I’ve been jacking with three and four other EQs, And this one solved all of my problems in about two minutes for a nice clean crisp and still punchy vocal

    My favorite, but "dark" choice

    Amazing plugin, incredible sound and flexibility, love ua, BUT it needs an update .. The GUI is ok for late 2000

    I Imagine this thing NATIVE and with a Pro Q3 inspiration. The grid reminds me the good old snake on my texas instrument

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, you’ll need an Apollo audio interface, UAD-2 Satellite, or UAD-2 PCIe card to run these plug-ins, using the onboard DSP. The plug-ins run on the hardware itself, without adding strain to your computer’s CPU. In an Apollo, onboard DSP processing allows you to run realtime UAD plug-ins with near-zero latency, and even record that processing directly to your DAW.

This refers to the number of SHARC DSP processors in Apollo and UAD-2 hardware. A DUO core system has twice the amount of processing power compared to a SOLO core system. More SHARC DSP cores increases the number of UAD-2 plug-ins you can run on the hardware.

No, Satellites provide DSP to run UAD-2 plug-ins in your DAW.

Yes, you can start a fully functional 14-day demo from any plug-in bundled with the UAD software. Simply click “Start Demo”, and start using it in your DAW.

UAD-2 licenses follow the hardware, it does not matter which computer they are connected to. You can have up to six UAD-2 devices registered to a system in your Universal Audio account, which share those licenses. See UAD-2 Plug-In Licensing Explained for full details. Authorisation of UAD-2 hardware is managed by the UAD Meter & Control Panel Application.
