| 1176LN, because it works well on kick, snare, bass, guitars, vocal and bring definitely some character when you push it hard.

| Lives for gear | LA-2A. I can sort of get close to all the other plugins using native or Powercore stuff, but only the LA-2A can do its thing for me on vox and bass. |

| Note that the question is "your favorite plugin" not "pluginS" e ![]() Of course if we can name more than one UAD plugins I would add the Pultec EQ, the Cambridge EQ for surgical fixing, the LA2A for smooth bass and vocals. |

| Lives for gear | LA2A really has something going on and you can use it a lot, it doesnt ask much dsp.

| I have it and its great. However, there is no mix control, and only four buttons for level. So you have to waste a buss so that you can blend in only a bit of it.

| It's hard for me to pick a favorite, I probably use the 1176SE the most because I can use many instances with less resources. As far as favorite, I guess it would have to be the precision multi band – very useful ITB. Others would include the precision limiter and the pultec pro. ~Lerxst Last edited by Lerxst; 24th December 2007 at 07:28 PM.. Reason: Forgot to add "Pro" to the pultec |

| The Pultec "Pro" EQ is excellent when you want that character. On vocals it's pretty much a first reach for me. The 140 Plate I use a lot with very short decay times with a bit of pre-delay on individual drums. Helps add a nice space to them. 1176LN = character compression that I reach for a lot. Sorry, that's 3! War

I've seen that UAudio has a 50% sale going on 'til december 31th. I'm still thinking about getting the Plate 140, Dimension D or the new SPL Transient Designer. Would you suggest getting the Plate 140? | |

| most favorite: Plate 140 verb although - i really really like the Dimension ... it's one of those somewhat subtle "secret weapon" type fx ... then again - i do use the 1176 a LOT ... |

| Either the LA-2A or 1176LN, can't decide between them. |

| The only plugin I would miss if I dumped the UAD1 would be the 1176. The other plugs don't do that much for me. When I upgrade my computer I hope there is another card available with more power because slots are getting pretty valuable to me. Slots= more I/Os. I'm not interested in buying a chasis only to use 4 cards. I've been gravitating toward more of the Duende plugins. The X-EQ easily replaced Cambridge and is a step up sonically. The SSL ch strips are the best I've used. |

| 1176LN - Sounds and works like I want it to, and great for many things! Different tones on vocals as well: I like it at 12:1. Brings out a nice presence. |

| 1176ln & pultec pro The LN version is way less silver sounding ![]() The Pultec Pro is great for calming irritating parts of a sound. |

| Sorry. Forgot the "why". It makes distorted guitars sit very well in the mix. I like a lot more - that's just the most apparent. I.E. - Cambridge EQ for surgical EQ, EMT for plates, bla bla
