DreamVerb

Universal Audio's flagship stereo reverb plug-in is DreamVerb. Drawing from the flexibility of RealVerb Pro, DreamVerb's interface lets you create a room from a huge list of different materials and room shapes. Acoustic spaces can be customized further by blending or "morphing" the different room shapes and surfaces with one another, while the density of the air can be changed to simulate different ambient situations.

DreamVerb also features a flexible 5-band active EQ and unique level ramping for the early and late reflections for realistic dynamic room simulation. And with Universal Audio's proprietary smoothing algorithm, all parameters can be adjusted in real-time with no "zipper-noise" or audible artifacts.

DreamVerb also features lots of graphic feedback for the user to understand just how their choices effect the reverb.

Features:

  • Custom room shape settings.
  • Adjustable room materials.
  • Graphic Room Shape selection.
  • Blend between room shapes and sizes in real time.
  • Separate controls for Intensity, Timing, and Onset of Early Reflections and Late-Field Reverberation.
  • Comprehensive interface for in-depth parameter editing.
  • Adjustable Diffusion setting.
  • Up to six instances will run simultaneously on a single UAD card.

A Note about UAD Powered Plug-ins
UAD-2 and UAD-1 Powered Plug-Ins run exclusively on Universal Audio's UAD DSP Accelerator Cards. All available Powered Plug-Ins are included in the UAD Software Installer/Updater Package; and every Plug-In title has a separately activated 14-day trial -- so users can try before they buy, at their own pace. Once a user decides to purchase a Plug-In, they can click on the Plug-In toolbar "Buy" button, which automatically takes them to the www.uaudio.com website and carts the plug in; or this can be done manually via browsing our webstore. Once the purchase is complete, a downloadable Authorization File is made available. Users simply drag and drop this Auth. File into the UAD meter, and the Plug-In is authorized. UAD-1 users can transfer Plug-In licenses to UAD-2 format for free (one time only). Via Customer Support, Universal Audio also allows registered UAD owners to sell their UAD card(s) with Plug-In licenses, transferring the licenses to the new card owner (subject to Universal Audio approval).

Product: 1176LN / 1176SE Limiting Amplifier
Developer: Universal Audio
Type: Dynamics (Compressor / Limiter)
Price: $149 / Included with all UAD cards
OS: WindowsMac OS XUniversal BinaryUAD1UAD2
Formats: VSTAudio UnitRTAS
Originally designed and built during the 1960s, the 1176LN was the first to use a Field Effect Transistor (FET) as a voltage-controlled variable resistor, and that innovation was the key to the product's unique character. An in-depth analysis of the 1176LN's "personality" allowed Universal Audio to methodically reproduce those results within a plug-in architecture, and now offer that same character to computer-based audio workstations. Features: Ultra-fast attack time. Unique, analog-friendly, "warm" characteristics. FET Gain Reduction Emulation. Supports the popular "... [more]

 
Product: Boss CE-1 Chorus Ensemble
Developer: Universal Audio
Type: Modulation (Flanger / Phaser / Chorus / Tremolo)
Price: $99
OS: WindowsMac OS XUniversal BinaryUAD1UAD2
Formats: VSTAudio UnitRTAS
In 1976, BOSS originated the chorus effect pedal. Its warm, analog stereo chorus and vibrato have been heard on countless tracks--particularly on guitars, bass and electric keys. Universal Audio was commissioned by Roland to accurately model the CE-1. The CE-1 provides a choice of either chorus or true pitch shifting vibrato. The vibrato/chorus "stomp switch" allows for chorus or vibrato effects, while the normal/effect stomp switch bypasses the effect. One knob is dedicated to the chorus intensity, while two knobs allow manipulation of the vibrato depth and rate. When used with ste... [more]

Product: EMT 140 Classic Plate Reverberator
Developer: Universal Audio
Type: Reverb
Price: $199
OS: WindowsMac OS XUniversal BinaryUAD1UAD2
Formats: VSTAudio UnitRTAS
German company EMT made a breakthrough in 1957 with the release of the EMT 140, which utilized a resonating metal plate to create ambience. However, plate reverb systems are expensive, bulky, need to be isolated from vibration and maintained regularly-therefore plates are usually found only in major studios. Universal Audio accurately recreates that sound with the Plate 140 plug-in. The Plate 140 replicates the sonic signature of three uniquely different EMT 140s installed at The Plant Studios in Sausalito, CA. The GUI is closely based on real plate system components with additional controls f... [more]

The EMT 250's distinctive clear and open ... [more]

 
Product: Fairchild 670 Compressor
Developer: Universal Audio
Type: Dynamics (Compressor / Limiter)
Price: $149
OS: WindowsMac OS XUniversal BinaryUAD1UAD2
Formats: VSTAudio UnitRTAS
The two channel Fairchild 670 is often described as the "Holy Grail" of compressors in studio gear esoterica, not only because of its price (around $30,000 on the vintage market), but its extreme rareness and the difficulties in maintaining such a piece. With 14 transformers, 20 vacuum tubes, and a 6 rack-space encompassing girth, the 670 is the heavyweight champion of compression weighing in at 65 pounds. UA's emulation is modeled after Allen Side's favorite unit from Ocean Way Studios. UA went to great efforts to capture the unique sonics of this famous mu-type tube limiter, as wel... [more]
