Great video. For me the hardware sounded great, the plugins just had a tiny bit of brittleness in the top end of the transients. Was pleased that the waves did well (as I own it) - perhaps adjusting the reduction a bit would be good. Very intrigued by the adjustable harmonics of the Overloud, what a great feature! Slate sounded good too, perhaps not in direct comparison to your hardware but a nice enough sounding plug. UAD plugs are consistently excellent, nice to see the older model in there as my first studio (where I was a tea boy) had one.

The UA emulations - 2a gray and 2a silver - come closest to the perfect musicality of the hardware. Waves is second best to my ears though GR/frequency mapping is off quite a bit. The rest are ‘forget it’ for me, as they all fail pretty badly at simulating the GR response of every 2A I’ve ever used. Btw, that’s a very nice UA hardware piece you have. It is spot on with my experience with vintage units.

Man that hardware, there's something about the dynamic character that is alive. Also it tamed the hi mid frequencies in such a pleasing way. None of the plugins touched that hardware.

First thanks for your video. Overloud makes very good plugins. They are undervalued because they don't do aggressive marketing like other companies. Their plugins sound really good and are a step up from other developers, they care a lot about aliasing and other problems of the inherently digital. Actually his comp la2a and 3a are the most similar to the real units that I have heard. As well as their comp670 and their compG. Thank you for your analysis and to unveil gems that would otherwise go unnoticed. PS: I do not work for Overloud nor do I receive any kind of financial benefit from them, I just work with some of their plugins and in my opinion they are fantastic.

@@MasterclaesVideos I have all of the UAD LA-2A plugins and when mixing vocals for example, after going into the EQ to do some corrections, I'd first use the UAD 1176 (ratio: 4, attack: 5 and release: 7) tone shaping with in and outputs.. Then my preference is to go into the UAD LA-2A Silver one to mellow everything out.. To me the silver one is the most useful out of the bunch.. From there I'd add EQ for character like the UAD pultec, and then some de-essing (soothe2 or Rdeesser), a bit of Rvox compression to push it forward and then a low cut on the EQ (Pro-Q3) to prevent additional lows from the compression. From there depending on the songs needs I'd add a touch of harmonizer (eventide) and some saturation (SSL or Decapitator). Then on the send busses Id have a bunch of different reverbs, shorts, longs and delay. This is probably more than you asked for but maybe it's helpful to someone...

Another surprise that almost none of them can replicate the UA! I thought a lot of them had the same issue with being too aggressive (especially on the low notes). My favourite/closest was the UAD LA2, surprisingly. The other UAD were the closest with the Slate being next in line to me.

Hardware still beats the plugins.. Happy to have the plug-ins if I run out of resources though...

Thought the UA gray and Legacy #3 were closest but many had a pushed sound that seemed to boost 300 hz or so to me. Hardware was transparent and balanced. My opinion only of course

I like it when a plugin manufacturer leaves out the noise or gives you the choice to add or subtract noise.. As a rule I hate noise and view it as an improvement of the technology if I can get the same sound without noise !

I just got a pair of audioscape eqp’s, they make a good basis for a comparison. The 1176 is going to be a tough one because of all the revisions.

You've done god's work here. NGL though the best 2A emulation is the DMG TrackComp imo. The rest sound terrible besides the UAD and Slates!

Overloud had the most depth, UAD grey the closest, T racks the richest saturation (and best sounding but need more compression to really hear it saturates in a soft way).
