UAD 9.15 – AMS DMX 15-80 S

Introduced in 1978, the AMS DMX 15-80 S was the world’s first digital delay and pitch shifter with CPU control and 15-bit operation. It can be heard in action on famous albums by the likes of Joy Division, Nirvana, Brian Eno, and Prince. It’s the sound of 80’s space and depth. Now, the sound of this vintage digital AMS studio rack unit joins the UAD library with several enhancements, such as Tempo Sync, Dual VCO mode, Dry/Wet Mix, and others. It’s a very elaborate delay for a vintage unit, but more importantly, it lays on the time bending stuff thick and vibe-y. Just as it should!

UAD 9.15 – Manley Tube Preamp

Manley tube mic preamps and gear are fabled classics, known for the richness and character they impart to any audio passing through. The Manley Tube Preamp plug-in aims to provide the same smooth clarity and tube musicality. With UAD’s Unison™ variable impedance technology, users get to experience the authentic characteristics and gain staging “sweet spots” of the original circuit. The added punch and tone is available both while tracking and across multiple channels through mixdown.
