So everybody knows.. I didn't pay for the unit.. I'm Paul Third/ tight arse scotsman after all haha

UA have loaned me the unit so I can try out the unison technology, console and also use its line in & outs for my future 500 series shootouts.. Which will include UAD plugins.. AND we might get some acustica and UAD shootouts 😜

IMO, the interfaces are where the value of UAD is at. Low latency processing for live recording is the one area where DSP is not hopelessly outclassed by CPUs. Helps that the plugins are great, but if it was ONLY great plugins and no low-latency stuff, I don't think I would have bothered going beyond my Twin.

I remember getting my first UAD pci card back in 2006 or so right after I graduated high school... there weren't nearly as many other options out there as there are today. I use the Distressor, API 2500, and the API Vision channel strip quite a lot. Congrats!

@paul third could you please demonstrate what you mean by “topping wins” when comparing the DAC? I don’t think there are much content online able to demonstrate/ compare different ADC and DAC! It would be lovely if you could demonstrante and scientifically show what sort of differences we should be looking for when trying things out

My goal is to create an eGPU type setup; with Thunderbolt 4. That way, I can hunt down 2-4 AUD2 Octo core pcie cards and house them in the external box. It would be amazing having a cube that could run up to 32 Sharc chips! Actually, I would have 2 UAD2 cards and 2 others that can run everyone elses' plugins. It's all about finding great deals on them though.

Looking forward to shootouts! I run an Apollo X 16 and love it :)
No unison pres, and sometimes I wish I had some just to check em out/for extra channels but I went the premium outboard pre route. However I hear that unison stuff is pretty cool! I’m a fan of much of the UAD stuff :)

Cheers! Love your channel!

Are you using this with Windows? I'm thinking of doing the same but I have a Ryzen processor and not sure if those 2 will gel together.

I own an Apollo X6 as well. You won't be disappointed. It's awesome.

Recommendations for UAD plugs to trial (After 7 years of use) in no order:
1. AMS-Neve CS's EQ. One for one digital code from Rupert Neve's first digital console.
2. LA-2a/Pultec/1176 upgrade ofc (Analog classics bundle)
3. Neve 1084 pre-amp (The 1073 code is old asf, compare the two and see when you push!)
4. Capital Chambers
5. Tube-Tech compressor II (Amazing texture on vox and bass)
6. Ocean Way Studios (Incredible realism)
7. Oxide + Studer tape plugins.
8. Moog multi-mode filter XD
9. EMT reverbs

Avoid, IMHO:
- Anything by Brainworx (Price on PA way better)
- Anything that Softube makes as they update their versions of the plugs they made for UAD, and UAD don't, e.g. get their Mike-E Distressor, as the UAD Distressor isn't special now. I use AA Pink over UAD Distressor now.
- Lexicon reverbs are good for texture, but the UI's are a nightmare. Just not worth it, IMHO.
- The Manley plugs aren't anything special.
- Culture Vulture is awful compared to Gem version.
- Most the channel strips aren't anything special these days, they were 7 years ago. No updates since release.

What made you pick this one over an rme interface? the extra dsp?

Nice to see you try hardware. Would love to see what you think of luna. The uad 3 months for a dollar is a must try now.

A comparison to RME Ufx 2 would be apreciated

Good stuff. Not as good as RME thought. 😅😂 love my ufc ii. Solid as a rock. And i can’t spend more and more money on plugins either. That’s a plus in my book.

Yes!!! Can’t wait to see your UAD reviews. Also the interfaces are really clean too!
