Let's be honest
Ok lets be honest, in my case I don't use it like they say to... I prefer a clean mix verses the dirt that everyone is trying to recreate in there mix, so with that being said. I use this plugin very lightly just to bring a little more of the low-end out on the master, because it seems to get lost when mixing different projects. I enjoy the way it glues and gives a nice harmonic saturation to the record so check it out..

Great tape emulation
Impressed with this emulation. It can be used very subtly or can add a lot of colour and/or saturation. The library of presets is invaluable to start you off and showcase what the plugin is capable of. Quite different colour and more versatile than a competitor's plug in endorsed by Eddie Kramer - I am glad I have both as they are very different and suitable in different situations. I think for me the ATR102 will be used a lot more.

Great plugin
This is a great tape plugin for the master mix bus. Great variety in the sounds you can achieve.

The Hot Glue Gun
Very impressing! This glues all tracks together and deserves a regular seat in the master channel. It seems to bring warmth, life and even energy to almost any mix.

Superb tape emulation
This lives on my master bus. I couldn't imagine my master bus chain without this plugin to add that tape warmth. And without the hassle of having to maintain a 2 track tape machine.

Wow man! That's what my mixes were missing.
This damn thing applies butter on my prickly and thorny mix. Just a touch of it is enough to make everything sound smooth and present. Don't push it hard you don't need that. All types of tapes with different flavors, just can't get enough. My mixes use to hit hard on my ears esp. with lots of harsh eqs and comps. That harshness is gone but the presence is still there,THAT'S THE GAME. I use on my Mix Buss. Actually i mix with it on. Tape type GP9, Cald at +6 and Head 1/4" ahh! much better now. Of course tweak the eq setting,noise shaping, wow and flutter. Transformer if u need, keeps things in place.

I've been working on mastering for 5 years. Last December I've bought my new Apollo 8. I demoed many plugins but the first one I decided to buy is ATR-102. I so like how it works in my mastering chain! It's excellent!

Amazing for Electronic Drums
Really brings out the character of electronic based drums from outboard gear to samples. Brings great character that is usually lost working with computer samples and sound.

Amazing!!
I never imagined that a plugin could produce so many different audio colors and still be dead easy to use. Adds warmth to every mix I do and glues all the parts together when used on the Master fader. Great presets also. I couldn't decide between this or the SSL Bus Compressor. Glad I got the Ampex since I can fine tune the sound I want.

Absolute winner!
When your working in the Digital world you just cant get the same tonal characteristics of your favourite records from the past... this is the bridge into that other world!

Favorite plug!!!
Glues everything together! Makes everything sound so natural and bigger.. UAD plugs are fantastic and this is no exception!!
M. Diaz Velez
The perfection made plugin
Is this the real life? is this just fantasy? Nope, This Ampex is real and it rocks! Probably you will wait for a boom and over volumed sound...but this works on sounds detail making the audio great, comprehensive, and rich. This plugin is a MUST in your audio weapon arsenal.

can't live without it
since I purchased my apollo and my ampex atr102 I cannot pass without using it on the mix bus. It lives there, basically. You can get real smooth tape compression and eq out of it. MILES AWAY from every other tape emulation..

A game changer
Among the most "bang-for-bucks" purchase that can be done on the UAD store! It took me less than 15mn, when I demoed this one for a specific mastering purpose, to realize how much it would be efficient to use it more often. From single track to master bus, every step is potentially eligible to be "taped" in the process.
I can never regret the money I spent, would even pay more if asked...
