Universal Audio Manley Tube Preamp

Get the crystal-clear, smooth Manley tube sound for your vocals, bass, and more. Manley tube mic preamps are a modern classic, adding distinct clarity and detail to any signal. Now, enjoy the harmonically 'alive' Class-A sound in a simple Unison-equipped plug-in, ideal for Apollo audio interface users. Included versions are UAD Native (runs on Mac or PC without UA hardware - AAX, AU, VST3) and Apollo Realtime & UAD-2 (runs accelerated on Apollo interfaces and UAD-2 hardware - AAX, AU, VST2, and VST3). The UAD Manley Tube Preamp plug-in accurately models every stage of the Manley hardware preamp's circuit, blurring the line between analog and digital with Unison technology. It adds a smooth 'hi-fi' texture, just like the hardware. Drop it into the Unison slot of your Apollo interface's Console or LUNA software to bring life to vocals, bass, guitars, drums, and synths. And it's not just for Apollo owners; you can use it for mixing and tone shaping in your DAW with or without UAD hardware. Features include giving vocals and instruments the smooth, clear Manley Class-A tube sound, real-time recording 'through' the iconic preamp with Apollo interfaces, adding tube detail to make tracks lively, and controlling Apollo mic preamp gain staging and impedance via Unison technology.

Using the Universal Audio Manley Tube Preamp plug-in is easy. If you're an Apollo audio interface user, simply drop the plug-in into the Unison slot of your Apollo interface's Console or LUNA software. This will instantly add life to your vocals, bass, acoustic guitars, drums, or synths. For those without an Apollo interface, you can still use the plug-in in your preferred DAW for mixing and tone shaping. When using the plug-in, make sure your computer meets the system requirements for the included versions. If you're using the UAD Native version, it runs on your Mac or PC without UA hardware. The Apollo Realtime & UAD-2 version requires Apollo interfaces or UAD-2 hardware. To maintain the performance of the plug-in, keep your software up to date. Check for updates regularly on the Universal Audio website. Also, make sure your audio drivers are updated. Avoid overloading your system with too many plug-ins running at once, as this can cause performance issues. With proper use and maintenance, you'll enjoy the amazing sound of the Manley Tube Preamp plug-in for a long time.
