* Updated link to PluginBoutique - it works there. The Century Tube Channel Strip from UAD - Universal Audio is free through Sept 30th. When I got started with Universal Audio this is one of the first PreAmps I used. It’s easy to use and gives amazing results. Normally $199, of course, it goes on sale from time to time. But it is now Native so you are not required to have Universal Audio Apollo hardware and it works with all DAW’s. Highly recommended by me! I am not an affiliate nor get any commission from this. Just wanted to share it with the group. You can use it as an input preamp or you can use it when you're mixing. With a vintage-inspired tube mic preamp, transparent dynamics control, and intuitively voiced EQ, the Century Tube Preamp plug‑in lets you stay in the creative zone while you record and mix, helping you capture inspiration with stunning results.
