Everything from softube is more expensive natively, $100 on uad in a bundle vs. certain 3rd party plugs are more expensive to buy native.

Missing specific UAD emulations I relied on for instant results, like the Manley vari-mu, 88RS, 1176AE, ATR/A800 tapes, and literally every reverb: ocean way, RMX, capitol, etc. No unison, which feels somewhere between a plug-in and hardware to me. Noticeably less-than-real-time latency during tracking. Today’s non-UAD emulations sound essentially just as good. Can use plugins for long-form dialogue processing without waiting hours to render. I find that there are pros and cons having switched out of UAD’s ecosystem: Now that doesn’t include the autotune sub, pro tools sub, or other software instruments I bought like auturiq V collection and slate drums + toontrack SD3. LiquidSonics 7th Heaven professional ($299) IK Multimedia total studio max 3.5 ($399)Īcustica audio (already owned most of them) So I decided to return it and divest in UAD as a platform. Meanwhile im sitting on a mid-high spec’d workstation with a Ryzen 3700x that never gets pushed. I had finally bought an octo satellite to pair with my twin but I was feeling like I was still limited even with 10 SHARC chips as the reverbs take up huge amounts, and I thought freezing tracks would be faster than real-time, but as it turns out, not by much when all the DSP is maxed out anyways. (I rarely paid over $100 per plug-in since I always bought with the custom bundles) This is what I have on UAD:Īntares Autotune Realtime Advanced bundleĪPI Vision Plus (purchased both legacy and Luna extension) Lol yeah I’ve spent about $4000 usd on almost all their plugins not including interfaces and satellites and I’ve recently decided to go all native.
