Oxide
Quick and easy better-Izer. Feels like cheating.

Has its place.
Having used a Studer and Otari many years ago, I think I may have a little perspective. Like all plugins, this has its place and I do not expect it to always work on every source, but is fantastic when it does. I love the simplicity. I can put it on a track and after tweaking for 20 seconds or so, I know if I am going to like it or not. If I do, then I can fine tune it for bit longer and I am done. I also have the Kramer Tape and I like this WAY more. Nice job UA!

Oxide's the Reel Deal
I recorded to tape most of my professional life, thousands and thousands of times. I've been in major studios hundreds of times, and have used most every brand of tape machine and type of tape. I've tried or bought most of the other major companies and producer tape sims. Only UAD's ATR-102, worked for me. It sounds great, but I use it as a form of EQ, saturation and level, because it really didn't feel like tape. Got UAD's coupon, bought Oxide. Oxide is the only plugin, really, the ONLY plugin that FEELS like tape. It was actually a little spooky. I don't know why, don't care that much why, but it's the first time I've felt right about a tape plug. Bravo UAD, whatever you did there, you've fulfilled a promise others have failed to keep.

Great Job
This is a great plugin to achieve fast results and great sounding tracks. It's not as dsp hungry as the ATR-102 (not as versatile too) so you can insert on every track and get great sounding tape saturation tones with little tweaking. Great buy!

"it just smooths it out"
I never right reviews for anything. Just to lazy and not in the mood.
I put the oxide on anything that is harsh and it just smooths it out

What a worthy addition
Being a long term UAD user and having just purchased the Sound Toys package, I found the Decimator to be a real go to for achieving that gel I'm always looking for.
Now, as for bass, I found the Sound Toys to be a bit of a failure for my tone preferences. Ok if you like bald faced rock sounds but that's not my only playground.
So I took a chance on Oxide.
It's exactly what I needed to get that burning log fatness that I really like of McCartney's Beatles bass recordings.
Coupled with the Vertigo VSC Compressor on the bass preset via Brainworx, it's a no-brainer (excuse the alliteration.)

Instant goodness and mojo
Put it on a track and smile :-)
No seriously, really quick for creative workflow. It's so simple, but good!

Simple and effective
Being able to quickly make use of tape saturation to catch high peaks and transients without all the extra choices that Ampex tape brings is great.

Can almost smell the tape !
Just inserting this adds warmth and I now use it over 3rd party alternatives!

Analog sound!
I love this plug-in! Not only does it have an analog sound, it also spreads your mix open and makes it sound better sonically. I use it on my master track and also drum bus. It's also super easy to use.

Amazing
Sounds great, I pretty much slap this on my Guitar and Drum bus all the time, can't go without it.

Finally a Tape Plugin that works
It's Easy to USE , it Sounds Great, its Low Cpu.. non cluttered GUI and performance .. This is a WORK Plugin .
A. Shaw
Two thumbs up!
Just slap it on your buss and tweak slightly "magic". Not sure about other tape emulations but this one worked as avertised.

oxide tape
easy to use in numbers of applications -2 words- "SIMPLY MAGIC"- again UAD rules
.
Oustanding
Incredible usable plug-in! Yet to find a sound source it didn't respond well to with fairly minimal tweaking. Definitely worth a purchase if you don't have the Studer or Ampex already.
M. clifton
Oh my
So instant! Its a presto plugin. Used it on the master bus and nailed that Tape sound so well. It also brings out some crisp as well.

Instant goodness
I've demoed all the UAD tape sins, and while the Ampex and Studer are awesome and very tweakable (and over twice the price), Oxide holds it own and makes up for it's lack of options with near instant great tone. You really can do quite a bit with just the input and output alone. Using this a lot on drum busses and acoustic guitars, but it works on just about anything. Highly recommended.

Amazing tape recorrer plugin
Very, very, very cool. Two words: buy now!

the best plug in
was a bit skeptical about tape saturation plug-ins. My friend said it was making a huge improvement to his mixes so I bit the bullet and bought the Oxide Tape Recorder plug-in. I have to say this plug-in is the difference maker. Its the biggest single improvement I have done to my mixes. The demo videos I have watched don't do it justice.
I highly suggest everyone to try this out and hear for yourself what magic it can do to you mixes.
Thanks
