Teletronix LA-2A Classic Leveler Collection
Put simply, the LA-2A is the most revered optical compressor ever made. In 2001, Universal Audio set the standard in analog emulation with the first ever authentic LA-2A UAD plug-in. Today, the LA-2A Classic Leveler Collection packs even more obsessive detail into three classic variations, giving you punchy tube compression usable on nearly any source.

Pultec Passive EQ Collection
The Pultec Passive EQ Collection includes emulations of three legendary Pultec EQs: the EQP-1A, MEQ-5, and HLF-3E. These astonishingly accurate plug-ins are nearly indistinguishable from the original analog hardware — and together give you the same rich tones used to sculpt over 70 years of popular music. Simply run a full mix or single instrument through them, and you’ll hear magical Pultec sound for yourself.

1176 Classic Limiter Collection
The 1176 can be heard on some of the greatest recordings in history. Universal Audio released its first 1176 plug-in emulation in 2001, single-handedly launching the UAD platform. Today, they’ve circled back, and modeled its entire electronic path from stem to stern — including its transformers and FET and transistor amplifiers, delivering the definitive collection of the world’s most famous compressors.

Fairchild Tube Limiter Collection
For a half-century, Fairchild limiters have defined much of popular music’s most revered vocal and drum sounds. In fact, top mixers often employ a 670 simply for the “glow” it brings to their final mixes — even without compression. Now your vocal tracks, drum bus, and entire mix can benefit from the world’s most accurate recreations of these one-of-a-kind tube compressors.
