Yes please!!

[EstockAudio]

Woah! I'll buy a UAD-2 just for this plugin!

[mattyc]

large amounts of wow.

[AdilletteMan]

F*** me !!!
Guess I have to reactivate my UAD-account $$$

[narcoman]

Saw one of these in Dirks console a year ago - wondered if it was coming next!! ... those guys are amazing.

[Rob King]

I actually own one of these and love it. Really looking forward to comparing the two.

[superwack]

Amazing (can we all please agree in advance to NOT complain about how many chips this is gonna take? I am absolutely OK with a low instance count if it sounds even in the ballpark of the real one!)

[narcoman]

i agree!

[tomteontour]

Niiiiiiiiice...

Now just some Retro Instruments Emus Missing and I m in heaven.

Anybody knows about the other rumored UA Stuff ? 610 Pre Emulations, LA2A MKII and 64 Bit ? Acutally thought they would introduce 6.4 at AES ( wouldn´t that be nifty.. 64bit with 6.4 :D )

[grooveminister]

The press release says the Shadow Hills will be available in 6.3.2 - so the common theory that 6.4 will be 64bit seems quite probable now!

Yeah, I guess it eats up 5 cores simultaneously
- so an OCTO would be the minimal requirement!

[Rob King]

Where does it say it uses 5 cores? Why would they advertise it for the Apollo then as it's only a duo and quad? No way it is gonna take that many cores for one instance.

[mattyc]

I might very well be mistaken, but I thought a plugin couldn't be spread over more than 1 core anyway ?

Damn, I hope that you are wrong! Let's see.

Sorry, just kidding - I also assume that plugins can´t use more than one core.

[tobymusic]

Aaaaw man, UAD only - bummer. C'mon Brainworx, please make it AAX Native and DSP too!!

UAD is Sharc chips anyway not cores,LOL

[thehightenor]

Interesting .... developed by Brainworx NOT the UAD modelling team.

Obviously other companies see the UAD platform as very secure, I doubt they'll be a native version of this.

Looking forward to trying out.
