Shadow Hills...awesome
A fantastic plugin, essential for mastering your track, lifting it up to professional levels!
The nickel, steel, and iron transformer options each give your mix a unique character.
A must have for sound engineers!
Thank you UA! :-)

The Missing Link
This is what I've been after for SO LONG - something to musically catch and sweeten my mix buss by just a hair!! Imparts a silky thickness and musical grab that I am delighted with. In use on most mixes now!!!

Pretty great
This compressor is a beast. You will totally love it. I do. It's great on just about everything i use it on. I totally recommend it.

Worth it!
I'm no professional and can't afford outboard gear. But UAD plugs have greatly improved my mixes and this compressor is just brilliant. Been using it as my comp on drum busses and sometimes on my master. Love the sound.

I'm in Love
I just love this compressor. It's very versatile and have so much personality. Sounds amazing! This is my new go to compressor. Great job Brainworx and UA!

Sneakily great
Didn't dig it the first few times I tried it. I kept on having people insisting to me that it was amazing. Gave it a third chance and then I caved. Now I can't get it off my 2-mix most of the time!
Transformer options are probably the biggest part of this plug for me. For the way I mix, I end up on Iron a majority of the time. I really don't rely on it for gain reduction [I keep it slow atk/med-fast rel on most songs, maybe 1dB GR at peaks], but the gain and transformer color options are the real cream.
I don't care for the optical section on 2-mix duties, though I haven't given it many chances in that department.
Nice work! Might have to try this on bass next - or get an Apollo and track bass thru this...

Shadow Hills Mastering Comp review
This is my new go to buss compressor. I've tried most aax/rtas buss compressors. I liked using the Slate Digital VBC was using an SSL G compressor (both are still great products) on hardware inserts. The Shadow Hills compressor gives the track warmth and dynamic character. Having the optical and discrete modes make it very flexable.

Mastering Tools Is What I Need
The shadowhills Mastering compressor I use onall my Recordings then the presision limiter to crank up the tracks to its highest commercial potential without peaking. ITS A PERFECT COMBO for me...I have several friends looking to mimic this formula at the end of the mastering chain and they will be hawking UAD when they have them on sale to purchase them...

Just having this as an insert without compressing will still sound amazing!
This compressor is amazing. Half of the time I use it, I won't even compress anything with it - I'll use it just for the "sound" of the unit. It adds a really nice warmth to anything it's on. Works great on drums or on a bus. It does take a bit of getting used to due to the design of it having so many sections but once you've got the hang of it, you'll be impressed.

Very underrated.
Pros:
Versatile, unique, beautiful "color" in nickel mode, glues track excellently, can serve as channel or bus compressor, low dsp usage.
Cons:
Lacks the size and weight of the hardware.
This is a unique and impressive compressor in the box, and definitely worth a look.

A DAB WILL DO YA!
To be perfectly honest I didn't like this plug-in at first because of the results I was getting. I bought it based on the reputation of the actual unit and that I had to pick a third plug-in after purchasing my first Apollo interface. After further research and really understanding how this plug-in processes sound, I fell in love with it. Once I understood the multi-tier processing that you can use or by-pass , I started getting better results. GET TO KNOW THIS PLUG-IN, it's awesome , only a dab will do ya!!

Does not sound like the original
Does not sound like the original .
I'm a little disappointed, unnecessarily I bought it, but I hope that UAD will improve this version to sounds more like the original
Compressor does not have the depth as the original, where is that analog 3D sound?
It's sharp :(
In original unit sweet punch is focused on high frequency and sounds fantastic, open, airy and fresh.
Low frequencys sounds warm and natural.
In UAD version that punch is harsh, highs sounds digital.
Low freq sounds not se deep and not natural.
Sorry UAD, as a customer I must say - that is not good emulation :(
I only hope that in future will be better version.
Thanks

compression without dinic change, its a magical compressor
It seems that puts your sound in his place, but in a natural way
That doesnt disturb theusical intention.
Makes magic.

Best Compressor for Mastering
If you need some glue for mixing, colour and punch, this is one off the best software master compressor i know. I have trying many comp Software for colour and glue, but this is my favorite. I confess i didn't like him the first time i try, but working with him some hours and understand what it does, makes all the difference. It´s amazing in Mix Buss, Vocals, some Acoustic guitars and Drum buss. Can´t live without it. Congratulations UA / BX.

Excelente
Lo he probado a fondo y comparando con otros y sin duda alguna es el más cristalino y limpio .la gente deben probarlo a fondo

Very Good....
I must confess i demo`d this plug months ago and just by experiment with presets, i did n like him, but fortunately UA resets demos in every new release, and i had a second opportunity to demo it...my advice: take your time and demo it in the master buss, Drums, basses and some vocals, and you will see that´s one of the best plugins made by UA and Brainvox...i can´t stop using it anymore. Congratulations UA for given us the chance to have the taste of one so expensive machine in our mixes.
