5-Minute UAD Tips
Learn how to add punch, definition, and tone using the API Vision Channel Strip's legendary modules.
Forme Deinen Sound mit parametrischen und neuen grafischen EQs
Mit einem Klick auf den neuen EQ-Type Knopf kannst Du in der API Vision Channel Strip Collection zwischen dem bewährten 550L 4-Band parametrischen EQ und APIs berühmtem 10-Band Grafik-EQ der 560L Serie wählen. Die neue 560L-EQ-Emulation fängt die komplexen Bandinteraktionen, Clip-Points und musikalischen Filter-Amp-Verzerrungen der begehrten API-Hardware ein, mit denen Du schnell Gitarren verfeinern und formen, Drums Aggressivität verleihen und Vocals mit analogem Punch, Low-End-Transparenz und ultra-tighter Abbildung nach vorne bringen kannst.
Instant Magic: Der 212L Preamp mit Unison Technologie
Die API Vision Channel Strip Collection wird mit Apollo Interfaces noch besser, dank der Unison Mic Preamp Technologie. Du erhältst mit Unison alle wichtigen Impedanzwerte, "Sweet Spots" der Verstärkungsstufe und Schaltungsverhalten von APIs legendärem 212L-Preamp über die bidirektionale Steuerung und Kommunikation zwischen der Software und den Mikrofonvorverstärkern deines Apollo. Du erhältst außerdem die gleichen Funktionen wie in APIs Flaggschiff Vision Console, einschließlich eines Mic/Line-Schalters, eines dedizierten Cut-Filters und eines -6 dB-Pads.
Gestalte Dynamik mit dem 225L-Kompressor
Der 225L ist ein vielseitiger, charaktervoller Kompressor, der auf jedem Instrument und in jedem Genre brilliert — von einer einzelnen Spur bis zu einem ganzen Mix. Außerdem kannst Du mit den wählbaren "New"- und "Old"-Funktionen zwei schmackhafte Kompressionsarten auswählen, von mild bis stark.
Kreativ werden mit API Gate/Expander und Filtern
Mit dem ultraschnellen 235L Noise Gate/Expander kannst Du ganz einfach die Räumlichkeit und den Attack einzelner Audioquellen wie Kick-Drums oder Bass-Synthesizer formen und auch lautes Drumkit-Klappern und knorrige Gitarrenverstärkergeräusche unterdrücken. Die passiven, voll durchstimmbaren Hoch- und Tiefpassfilter des 215L eignen sich perfekt für eine breit angelegte EQ-Bearbeitung, mit der Du Dein Ausgangsmaterial professionell bearbeiten kannst, während der ursprüngliche Klang erhalten bleibt.
“The accuracy of the UAD API plug‑ins is incredible. I'll turn up the preamp gain to drive a guitar, or simply add some clean gain if I’m tracking Alicia Keys' piano. So versatile!”

– Joe Chiccarelli (Jason Mraz, Beck, The Strokes, Morrissey)
“API should stand for Amazing Punch Immediately. Dub, Complextro, and every other club genre is about to explode with the UAD API Vision Channel Strip Plug-In.”
– David Isaac (Marcus Miller, Luther Vandross, Eric Clapton)

API Vision Channel Strip Collection

Incredible.
I was a little unsure about buying this because I saw so many people complaining about it being just like the legacy version and not worth paying for... I decided to demo it and I realized within minutes those people don't know what they are talking about. Just the preamp section of this plugin alone is worth paying for. It's much more versatile than the legacy version and sounds much better.
All the modules on this plugin are great, but what I love most is how the preamp breaks up when pushed. There is not a plugin on the market that can do what this does. I've tried every analog channel strip and every time you push it, they compress the signal more than it should be. This plugin breaks up, but still keeps the transients and doesn't just smash/compress the signal. Nothing like it. Thank you UA.M. Kulev

UAD cashing in as usual
I already brought this, which UAD to now consider a legacy product. It's so insulting, and UAD should offer this for free to people who parted with so much money the first time round. It's essentially an update to make it better. I don't pay for updates, especially since it wasn't that long ago since I brought it. I feel like using insulting language to emphasise my anger and disappointment.

API vision channel strip
I just purchased this plugin and it is freaking amazing, just the use of the gate to reducing the background noise is a winner for me and the two choices of EQ. My flamenco guitar has never sounded so good. Thanks!!

What a nice colour...
This one adds really nice api colour to my recordings, eq is fantastic..Love it..

Instant smile!
Hands down, this might be the best software channel strip I ever used. All the API goodness and features are packed right here! Tried it on vocals, drums, guitars and bass and everything comes alive and musical with no hassle. Got it for 74€ during the November sale and the Legacy version is also included. I understand the previous owners complaining about never getting an upgrade discount to this latest API Vision. UAD has to look into this policy, I wouldn't like this happening to other plugins too.

Incredible Multipurpose Plugin-Sounds Like Gold!
This channel strip is an amazing tool, everything you need for real API sound in one plugin, great for the Unison slot as well as mixing. The preamp and EQ are especially awesome. Love it!

Supreme channelstrip
Absolutely love this thing. It’s amazingly versatile and has plenty of punch and openness. It absolutely slays competition from other developers sonically. Superb filters, EQ and the compressor is star of the show for me.

Excellent channel strip. Great preamp, great EQs and very good dynamics.
Excellent sounding plugin. Very very versatile. One of my best buys.

Great channel strip
This has become a favorite of mines along with the SSL strip. The API sounds big and clean. And the EQ is also amazing. I always find myself using it in unison mode.
J. Metzger
Not the same
This plug in like most uad is a digital skin non analog variant . Takes dsp to work , wish this had the mojo I was promised .

Nice !
Nice !

Dang, why y'all gotta do me like this...
So I bought the OG vision channel strip, and this came out like two months later. I trialed it, thought, its really good, but not THAT much better.
I lied to myself. It is that much better. 100%. The functionality, the mic pre, everything about it. Its punchier, and yet cleaner, without losing mojo or vibe. Thankful to have picked this up!
