Universal Audio has announced the release of Ocean Way Studios Deluxe, a powerful new version of the Ocean Way Studios UAD plug‑in that places tracks inside the legendary rooms, reverb chambers, and analog gear that defined some of the greatest recordings in history.
Powered by UA's Dynamic Room Modeling technology, UA says Ocean Way Studios Deluxe lets creators mix and re‑mic vocals and instruments with unprecedented realism — capturing the dimension, warmth, and depth of the historic studio that has shaped hit records by everyone from Ray Charles and Frank Sinatra to Whitney Houston, Radiohead, and Beck.
With Ocean Way Studios Deluxe, we wanted to bring creators even closer to the sound of these historic rooms. It's a complete re‑imagining of one of our most beloved plug‑ins — now featuring the chambers, analog consoles, and re‑miking setups — rebuilt from the ground up for modern music producers on any system.
Lev Perrey, VP of Product at Universal Audio
