Thank you! Your reviews are always thorough and unbiased.
I appreciate that!
Excellent SSL plugin comparison video my Bro.David. I appreciate it. It saves lot of time for us in choosing the correct plugin.
Thanks for watching!
This is lovely Mr David Vignola. Your EQ made easy and compression made easy tutorials purchased years back and your multi tracks downloaded taught me a lot about mixing.
You're very welcome! Glad the courses helped you.
Totally agree! When I started getting into mixing two years ago, Dave's courses taught me everything I needed to get started. Still the best decision :) Thanks Dave, love what you do!
Thanks for doing this vid, Uncle Dave! 👍🏻
My pleasure!
Hello, good video on comparing SSL software.
I like the fact that you buy your own software to do a demo, unlike other RUclips channels.
Thank you
Hey Dave, thanks for doing this comparison. Both sound great, I hear more harmonics and tone from the SSL Native 4K E strip. Especially in the upper mids. Good vid😎
Thanks for watching!
UAD is taking forever porting plug-ins its crazy great vid Dave as always
Yea, they move at their own pace for sure
I've been going back to my old CLA MixHub. I just like the sound and tweaks that Chris made to the plugin.
Thanks for watching!
UAD strip not native, but I have things that are, LA-2A, Manley Vari-Mu as examples. And my Mac Mini M2 runs them well in Studio One 6.6.
I have the SSL strip as well, haven't done much with it just yet. Occupied with other shiny bits in Complete.
Great demo Dave, fabulous name.
Signed Dave
Cool! thanks for watching
Feels like SSL is brighter
A little, I agree
Funny; I don't know if you have the same impression, but there is something in the Voosteq Model N plugin that is making the mix very close to the real thing, even much ahead of these two. 🤔
I think the SSL native is more the real thing to my ears
Not too sure about that but it still is good
Well it means that you like Neve-ish sound. I don't. Different person, different taste.
Thank you for this update!
you got it!
Great video. :) An other determining factor for me is the way the compressor behaves in the UAD: the "ssl comp trick", where you slowly bring up the ratio while the att, rel are at medium and the threshold at max, works wonder on any tracks. Not so with the SSL Native.
Thanks for the input and for watching.
totally agree sounds mucho more deep but, do they released the uad bundle native?
Thanks for watching!
Haven't A/B'd these two yet so thank you! I have A/B'd the brainworx vs SSL and I think the brainworx has more life/depth to the sound and a sweeter top and bottom end. Would love UAD to make this SSL model a UADx so I can actually use it. It's so heavy on the DSP chips I never use their SSL plug.
I hear you!
Whats the closest to your ssl origin? Thanks for doing this video!
None
Kick sounds punchier on the UAD, but I only have 6 shark chips. I'll have to stick with the SSL. Thanks for the video!
Thanks for watching!
The UAD sounds Fuller qnd Warmer, while the Native Sounds thin and Harsh to my Earbuds...
Thanks for watching!
I'd love to see a comparison between this 4000E by UAD and the SSL Native Channel Strip 2. I know they both are based on different desks but it would be amazing to hear how different they are.
Noted!
Which one do you prefer the most though, SSL, UAD, PA, Waves?
SSL Native
Thats why uad won't release it as a native)) thanks for video) actually ssl sounds great, it has a bit less color. So maybe pushing the preamp section will help in this comparison
Yeah I agree. Thanks for watching!
My experience with UAD vs others brands is that UAD tend to overplay their PlugIns a little bit, they are always a bit more extreme, a bit louder, a bit more less subtile... sometimes to me it seem just to be the trick pony. I compared a lot of compressors from UAD and pre´s and in my ear they are often just louder, when levelling equal the difference is more subtile again. But if you use UAD, SSL or IK...best advice is to dial in by ear, not by values.
Thanks for watching!
You cannot buy a UAD2 plugin unless you have an Apollo or a Satellite. The UAD online store will prevent the purchase. The advantage to the DSP versions of UAD plugins is that they are loaded into the UA Console 2 application and can be monitored with no discernible latency during tracking. Also adding some of your plug ins via DSP frees up CPU power for more native resource availability. You can think of this as if you were supercharging your car’s engine.
Thanks for watching!
the ssl sounds better when running at 192 khz. when using hq it will atleast double it to 384 khz. enough to remove all digital artifacts. probably even up to 768 khz if its doing 4x. if your computer can handle it the ssl wins.
Thanks for watching!
are you still using presonus quantum?
No, just swapped them out for the Anatelope Galaxy 64
Galaxy is expensive. )) I recently saw your comparison quantum and Uad. And sold Uad twin for quantum 2626 as I need more input and output in advance.
UAD good
Thanks for watching!
Make about Helios 69 UAD!
good idea, I actually have that one and have not used it in a bit.
@@HomeRecordingMadeEasyEnjoy the hype of the native launch
Are those UAD DSP chips powered by hamsters?
LOL...they might be
Voosteq Model N is a bit of snake oil in the mix. ☺️👏👏
hummmmm, maybe it is
SSL 4KB is better than both of this.
No its not...:)
