Included Plug-Ins
TS Overdrive
Released in late 1979, the Ibanez Tube Screamer TS808* overdrive pedal quickly became legend for its dynamic, touch-sensitive distortion, and throaty midrange. A mainstay on the pedalboards of Stevie Ray Vaughan, Eric Johnson, Brad Paisley, and more, the TS808 holds a hallowed place in guitar lore. The TS Overdrive for UAD-2 and Apollo nails every detail of this vintage grind machine, allowing guitarists of all styles a vast array of sounds at tracking or mixdown.
Bermuda Triangle
When it comes to unmistakable, classic fuzz/distortion, the Electro-Harmonix Big Muff reins supreme. Vintage Big Muffs are prized for powerfully fat sustain, aggressive attack, and an over-the-top sonic personality. Inspired by the hallowed early-’70’s “triangle” version of the Big Muff, the Bermuda Triangle plug-in for UAD-2 and Apollo interfaces delivers the same bad-ass attitude and fiendish fuzz that has graced classic records from Pink Floyd to the White Stripes.
Raw Distortion
Equal parts warm overdrive and raunchy grind, the Pro Co Rat distortion pedal has been a vital cog in countless guitar rigs since the late ’70s. From Jeff Beck to John Scofield, players of all stripes revere the Rat’s tonal range, smoothness, and heaping amounts of gain. The Raw Distortion for UAD-2 and Apollo is a faithful emulation of this legendary distortion box, delivering all of the grit, dynamics, and raunch of the classic hardware.
Unison Technology for Authentic Tone, Touch, and Feel
The interaction of your instrument and the first pedal in your signal chain is an essential ingredient to capturing a stompbox’s unique character and tone. Thanks to Universal Audio’s Unison technology, your signal gets the same circuit interaction, gain range, and clip points of these vintage pedals when you plug into a UA audio interface. This gives you the true tone, feel, and response of the original hardware.

Love the TS9
I docked a star because as many have said I already had the RAW. I put it ahead of the Marshall Plexi for an Iron Maiden tone and it delivered!

Amazing bundle for 808 distortion
Amazing bundle to add a clean distortion that helps identify your 808’s on low quality speakers.

Good sound...
I really enjoy that bundle but the choice is quite limited. No Boss, Marshall, Fender, DoD or many many more manufacturers...from each manufacturer there is at least one pedal that is...

Fun to Mess with
These pedals work on everything.

thank u
its amazing, im very happy with it

A high price to pay
They never seem to discount the distortion essential bundle and it forces anyone who really just wants a pedal to drive their amp plugins, to pay a premium. I have to assume this pays off for them or it’s a licensing issue. It’s the missing link for me, between having to use physical gear and being able to use just my Apollo and Luna. It forces me away from the ecosystem because once I need to dip out of Luna, I prefer to use Logic, as luna has issues (I’m sure intentionally) with non-UA plugins. $49 for each pedal is a fair price. Not offering them separately is unfair and dare I say it, insulting to all us loyal customers pumping money into the UA cash cow, knowing the spark sub is going to make us all regret it later. Do better UA!

Stop the bundle
I already have the Raw (as everyone else) and don’t need the Bermuda at all. Listen to your customers and sell the Ibanez alone

TS Overdrive not included in bundle that came with Apollo device?
I recently bought an Apollo Solo and this bundle came with it as an add-on. I have been able to use both the Bermuda and Raw plug-ins, however the TS Overdrive still requires a separate purchase. As far as I can tell it has not been included in this bundle.

Not that good
I expected too much. This bundle is not that good.

I really enjoy that bundle but the choice is quite limited. No Boss, Marshall, Fender, DoD or many many more manufacturers...from each manufacturer there is at least one pedal that is legendary and worth emulating. So...I'm waiting! ;)

maybe
I've tried all 3 of these on demos and they sound pretty good. The TS and Raw pedals are available from a lot of plugin makers for cheap and there is nothing special about the UAD version. I would love to get the Bermuda but not at this price. Brainworx sells its guitar pedals for $25 when they are on sale and they are as good as anything UA offers.
A lot of people say that got RAW for free. How's that work? I've been a customer for around 15 years and was never offered this for free.J. Moin
Fantastic range of Tones from these iconic pedals!
Fantastic range of Tones from these iconic pedals and I am loving both the TS and Bermuda!
Docked a star because this bundle should really cost 99USD on sale and not 119USD. That would put it more inline with the price of a guitar/bass amp when they are on sale. Docked a star for the price. As many have mentioned this should be de-bundled and each pedal sold separately for about 50-70USD (sale price) then the bundle would make more sense at 119USD sale price. Still, i'm not disappointed and love most of my UA products. You really can't go wrong with having these pedals in your arsenal!M. Sanchez
Great sound!
Adjusting the bundle gives you the sounds of the masters. I returned my pedals after I heard I tried this bundle.

808 TS
This man here told you the whole truth
"Listen to your customers!"
It's a pity that everyone is forced to buy 2 extra pedals (one they already own), when we say it, we all just want the TS Overdrive pedal in this package. Please, please, please, do a great service to your customers and stop doing these deceptive things. Make TS Overdrive a separate purchase.G. Markus
Why not?
Over the year, I've spent a small fortune on Tube Screamers, and boutique clones of it - and other pedals. I was happy to simply plug them into my UA interface, but this plugin saves me the step and sounds more like the real deal (when paired with a UA amp sim).

Bermuda!!!
I boguht this bundle mainly for the Bermuda distorsion.. It is huge! Love it
A. Mikheev
Bermuda Triangle, insane fuzz
Wanna sound like Pink Floyd, MUSE? You should check it!
S. PHILIP
handy toolbox
Guitarists coming to record at my studio don't need to bring pedals anymore....

Works well with Unison amp sims
The TS sold me on this package. Already had RAW, which was included with initial Apollo interface purchase. Bermuda is killer on synths and bass guitar. Kind of Big Muff-esque. TS is spot on and works great pushing the Softube Marshall suite into glorious territory. In all honesty it works better than my outboard Fulltone OCD pedal I was previously using to push those amps.

Tube screamer
I had a tube screamer for a little while. This emulation is spot on for it.
