Here’s Derik White’s (Dusted Williams from KVR) review of the UAD-1 on TraX Music. It’s a pretty well done piece, and a worthy read for anyone considering the UAD-1.

I am lucky enough to have a UAD Studio Pak tripped out with all the newer plugs (save the mastering series).

Using it was the first time I truly understood the idea of a ‘coloring’ compressor, or ‘coloring’ eq.

Its definitely a great piece of hardware.

Yeah, agreed, I can’t afford one either for now. Coughing up nearly a grand is no small matter for those of us with . . . ahem . . . minimal income. But it is worth pointing out that at least the UAD-1 (and TC’s PowerCore) are both DSP hardware within range of consumers. You can have some really amazing fx/instrument capabilities for less than the price of a new computer, and a LOT less than a Digi system. (Note that UA is also a TDM developer.)

A UAD-1 is on my shortlist of hardware. And I happen to have one of the few G5 machines that will actually work with this revision of the PCI card.

But until I actually start generating some income from my studio, my ‘new toy’ budget is on a complete freeze. :)
