Explore the Sound of the World's top Post‑production Tool

The AMS Neve DFC (Digital Film Console) is the ultimate console for multi-format film dubbing and TV post production. Exclusively from UA, the AMS Neve DFC Channel Strip plug-in gives you the exact DSP algorithms from this modern post-production console used on Oscar-winning soundtracks and hit TV shows.

An Exact Replicate for Your Studio

The AMS Neve DFC Channel Strip is not an emulation of the console's channel strip — it is the channel strip. Because the DFC uses the same floating-point architecture as the UAD platform, the developers at AMS Neve were able to map the console’s DSP, instruction for instruction, giving you the identical algorithms, features, and sound as the original.

Experience Oscar-Winning Workflow

The AMS Neve DFC Channel Strip plug-in gives you the same fast and flexible workflow that post-production engineers have used on over 70% of international blockbusters. Plus, the signal flow of the channel strip’s modules can be “drag & drop” reorganized on the fly.

Mix with Dynamics and More

For frequency manipulation, use four bands of fully parametric EQ and two bands of fourth-order filtering. A full suite of dynamics processors includes a compressor, limiter, expander, gate, and a dynamic EQ. You even get phase and width controls.

Work Efficiently with a Comprehensive Toolset

The AMS Neve DFC console is revered by film and TV engineers worldwide for its ability to process a wide range of audio material. From quiet footsteps to multi-person dialog and battle scene explosions, the AMS Neve DFC Channel Strip plug-in is a must-have for modern post‑production creatives.

    I Love UAD

    I'm obsessive, fanatic. It's because of plug-ins like this. Not only do you get an exceptional software product, you are simultaneously learning how to use the hardware used by the best in the business.

    Its great but buggy

    Its a great plugin but its buggy. For one, the "Process Order" does absolutely zilch, so you cannot even put the gate before the compressor. Then the UI crashed on me twice, something that never happened with other plugins.

    I would love to be able to use it more because its a great all-in-one with the signature Neve sound in the EQs and gate/expander section..

    One of the best

    Sound is absolutely top notch in every scenario, this level of performance is unrivalled, it is up there with the best of the best. I hope that we will benefit from a native version also.

    The Critical Acclaims Are Spot On

    This plugin is used to mix films and TV shows for a reason. It is the binding glue in a mix that makes it sound professional.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, you’ll need an Apollo audio interface, UAD-2 Satellite, or UAD-2 PCIe card to run these plug-ins, using the onboard DSP. The plug-ins run on the hardware itself, without adding strain to your computer’s CPU. In an Apollo, onboard DSP processing allows you to run realtime UAD plug-ins with near-zero latency, and even record that processing directly to your DAW.

This refers to the number of SHARC DSP processors in Apollo and UAD-2 hardware. A DUO core system has twice the amount of processing power compared to a SOLO core system. More SHARC DSP cores increases the number of UAD-2 plug-ins you can run on the hardware.

No, Satellites provide DSP to run UAD-2 plug-ins in your DAW.

Yes, you can start a fully functional 14-day demo from any plug-in bundled with the UAD software. Simply click “Start Demo”, and start using it in your DAW.

UAD-2 licenses follow the hardware, it does not matter which computer they are connected to. You can have up to six UAD-2 devices registered to a system in your Universal Audio account, which share those licenses. See UAD-2 Plug-In Licensing Explained for full details. Authorisation of UAD-2 hardware is managed by the UAD Meter & Control Panel Application.
