There is a race to bottom on so many things creative these days (don't get me started on photography), and the UAD hate is IMHO part of that. And the Unison preamps with the Apollo, and. I also use a Townsend L22 microphone, and the Bill Putnam & Oceanway Sphere mic models are UAD-only. But I still choose to use UAD for many things because I can hear the difference, it's quicker to get where I want to go sonically and the DSP is very handy to keep from further loading my CPU, even with my iMac Pro 10 core. And I'm retired (both from the day job and from making music for money), so I have no clients except for me.
I get the argument that mixing with Waves, Tracks, Slate, SoftTube, Fabfilter, Vienna Suite, PA, etc may not be the ultimate factor in getting the gig or even noticeable by the client. They had a deal last year where if you bought an Apollo X8/X16, you got a free Octo satellite.Īnd UAD threads always turn out like this (and if you think it's bad here, try this on Gearslutz!). I built out my collection to include everything I would really use/want and my average cost per plugin was quite low - probably less than $50. Upon registering, you get access to the Custom Shop (50% off) as well as coupons. Plus UAD was offering free plugins (Lex 480, Cap Chambers, Avalon 737 & UA 175/176) on Octo's at the time. I picked up my second Octo satellite a couple months ago from Amazon - it included a 3 plugin Custom bundle for only about $150 over the price of a bare Octo. The trick with UAD is to shop sales, coupons and retailer deals.
