uad plugs are really good. but imho the real thing sounds still better.

Always interesting to see people judging audio quality through youtube videos.

And for those who cry "analogue!! analogue!!" I suppose the vast majority of people using UA and WAVES plugins to mix grammy winning records today don't  know what they are doing?

And how many of you actually own or have really worked with any of the high end hardware studio devices? Or have you even TRIED the UA stuff? Just honestly curious. I doubt it though.

The 'good' qualities of analogue are subjective. Many young producers prefer the sound of digital because all the music they like sounds that way. Don't sweat it. You can still make a crap record with all the best analogue hardware in the world.

HARDWARE RULES !!!! Plugs can never reach that Sound !

While I agree with the lack of quality on youtube sound...where has less frequency damage due to poor resolution(guitar), it has noticiable difference (pro hardware).

Tks for sharing

haha well its certainly louder

i think the plugin dont emulate well the smooth warm sound of the helios.. maybe the EQ character but not the rest..

That's 1 of 5 or so Helios consoles that were at Island Basin st.. over the years.

The Island studio board was actually larger.! they had it for sale at vintage king about a year or so ago. i think it sold for like $200,000.00
