Stunning!!
A great re amp / reverb plugin - creates a real vibe to individual instruments as well as to entire mix. Buy it - you'll be glad you did!!

Very unique plug in
I have a song where the instruments sounds great but detached. Meaning they won't really gell into a nice mix because they are recorded in several different rooms. I started using the plugin's re-amping mode and the tracks really come to life, especially my midi-pianos and B3s. Couldn't the next step be other studios? Abbey Road, Muscle Shoals etc?

Unlike any other reverb plugin
The Ocean Way plugin is really a one-of-a-kind. In this day and age where most processing occurs in the box, this plugin is invaluable for samples and virtual instruments. It can turn any dry and lifeless recording into a delicate and intimate snapshot of Ocean Way's studio A or B. Especially useful when trying to give a sense of space and depth to individual parts or even an entire session.

Good, but only find myself using it for ambience
This plugin sounds great, but it is not as versatile as I expected it to be based on the price. For now I've only found myself using it to add ambience to dull close-mic'ed sources.

Just WOW
More than just reverb.
Though it is a ressource-eater, it gives a shine and more life to almost every signal. Love it on drums & guitars.

The vocal spaces I needed
This plugin provided me with a much needed reverb and tool to create spaces that I wanted and needed. Its great for experiments along side other verbs.

OWS is the "King of Rooms"
'Ocean Way Studios' is a real gem! I mostly mix tracks that are recorded in smaller studio's and smaller rooms. This plugin "OPENS THINGS UP" and lets the tracks "BREATHE WARMTH IN SPACE AND COHESION". This plugin is an example of what poetry does with words; It shifts you to a different paradigm ;-) I have never been to Ocean Way Studio's but you immediately hear a "good sounding large room". The choice of microphones, alignments, distances, filters and mix-faders for near/mid/far-positions are so easy to use and can make all the difference. I use it on my aux-busses and always have at least two of them loaded in my mixes: one for my Vocal-sends and one for my Drum-sends. I could use convolution reverbs with studio ambiences, but somehow the Ocean Way plugin always gels more with the sources and makes it 'More Real'.

Adds nice depth to your tracks
Love putting this on drums, perc, vocals and guitars. Such nice flavor!

Pour chercheurs d’ambiances !
J'ai hésité avant de prendre ce plug in car je n'était pas sûr du réalisme qu'il pourrais produire.
Il fut un des premiers que j'ai essayé et malgré mon scepticisme, je doit avouer que ça la fait directement !
On à bien l'impression d'être dans une salle d'enregistrement de standing et la possibilité de mixage des trois positions de micros, permet de travailler sur l'ambiance souhaité.
En mode tracking, cela rajoute une belle ambiance aux prises et permet de limité par la suite l'utilisation du DSP car assez gourmand.
Un outil agréable à utilisé et pratiquement indispensable en home studio où l'acoustique n'est pas forcément travailler.

Ad space to your mix
Unlike other room and reverb plugins this room emulation don't ads a reverberant tail to your instruments. A touch of this in your instruments will ad a lot of space in your mix. Incredible in drums, acoustic guitars and other acoustic instruments but, also amazing in vocals.
You will love it!

MIght Use DSP However, We Used To Bounce In The Old Days
Now you simply create the ambience and or sound you need, and record to one of the near endless tracks we are graced with these days.
The Ocean Way Plugin did a very nice job of helping to add a more believable timbre to a cheesy string patch in a track I'm mixing at the moment.
Anything that helps speed a session along while improving the sounds in question is what should be considered a useful tool.
This is going to come in quite handy at times!
Thank you U.A.

It's almost like cheating.
The way that this plugin makes in-the-box sounds not sound like they are sampled midi performances makes me feel wrong...but like with most sins I am hesitant to care because it makes me feel so good.
I've gotten so much use out of this plugin at this point that I feel almost like it's the only plugin I need for midi applications (aside from a library of sounds). Strings and drums that are canned come alive and are made anew.
Well done, UA.

The Ocean Way rooms sound lovely, and there is enough flexibility (mic types, positions, EQ) to get whatever you need in the way of authentic ambience. My only gripe is that there is no level meter so you can't see what's going in or coming out. Maybe an idea for the next version?

Ocean Way creates space
The Ocean Way Studio plugin is very unique. It allows you to put your tracks into a very good sounding space. For DAW and ITB productions this is extremely useful. The selection of microphones and placement choices is mind blowing. You can take a flat sounding software instrument track and make it sound very realistic. I will be finding all sorts of uses for this plugin. There is nothing else like it out there so just get it.

Nothing else like it..
This is an indispensable plugin for me as my studio's tracking room for drums isn't the biggest so if we want a drum sound that appears larger than it is then this is the first thing I reach for. It can give the dryest of drum sounds that big room sheen and the mix of convolution and algorithmic technology in this one is a complete winner. Don't just stop at drums though, guitars, piano, organ, acoustic, vocals, horns, strings, you name it, it will work brilliantly on them all!
