Well it's NOT official, and it's NOT sure that they're going to do MkII versions, but there was some official talk and a survey about what people would love to see next for UAD plugins, and there was some words about it...

Lot of people are wanting enhanced versions of the Pultec, Fairchild, 1176 and LA-2A emulations...

The questions is WHEN ?

The fact is that UAD modelled only the curves from the EQs and the compression behaviour for the COMPs... Whereas Waves, IK Multimedia and Softube modelled saturation/distortion characteristics, and even transformers and so on for some of them.

And lot of people agree to say that soundwise and about the behaviour compared to the real deal, these latest native plugins are BETTER. Period.

With the UAD-2 offering more horsepower, I don't see why they wouldn't release it right ?
