Does as advertised
It does exactly what universal audio said it would and sounds incredible on synth bass as well

Authentic
I'm just demoing the plugin right now I owned an original and this plugin really captures the same tone and vibe!
R. Beld
Perfect Bass for sitting right in the mix
No hassle, just put it on your bass gtr, try a few presets and you're good to go, instant goodness!

AMPEG
I recently played on an ampeg on my US visit..got an ampeg preamp DI for live gigs ..... this plugin is just heaven for me... i cud just crank the knobs without even the neighbours knowing.... just too many flavours in one solid authentic emulation....

Beautiful
Love this plug in. Very close to the real thing. Using it on every bass track
H. Zwarts
makes my bass more alive
Can't compare it with any hardware, just use it to make a nice bas sound. Works even cool on some synths

Welcome back!
I used to own one of these beauties. Why did I ever sell it? Well it doesn't matter now because now I have this incredible plug-in. Has all the charm of the original.

Sounds ways better then the Softube amp simulation, but with gain bug
Unfortunately this Unison Amp got a big gain stage bug in the Unison slot. After starting the Mac with the apollo the amp work how it should, but if you switch the plugin off and on again in the console it receive 10db less input gain. Only restart the mac and switching off the apollo helps to get the gain back.
Thats the bad side. The good thing is that its sounds really good for a bass amp simulation. Of course this smooth fuzzy sustain you get only by real speakers, but as long you don't play bass solos nobody will hear it.
Good sound job, bad programmer job.

With or Without You
Written with a little homage to U2 in mind. (With or Without You in the mix) So I was a little sceptical about buying a bass amp simulator, having played Ampeg real kit for years. You know what its like. Does it sound ANYTHING like what the real one does. Warm creamy tubes and overdrive with real harmonic delights. Well, folks after playing with it now for a week, the answer is ABSOLUTELY YES. Please don't over look the not documented feature on this Unison plug in that allows you set up separate gain stages by holding in the main knob on your control and then having direct control of the Pad, Volume and Power Controls direct on device. The pre sets are very thoughtfully created and a great starting point. Audition the cab/mic settings!

Best Bass Amp Ever!
This amp is extremely fat and sits very well in the mix. This will probably be the only amp I ever use from now on. Also the emulation is spot on as you would expect from UAD.

Nice smooth Bass Amp sim
A punchy and "clean" bass amp sim . excellent for (at least my) studio works.
B. Chapman
Sigh. Had to buy.
I didn't want to like this. I've been fine with the Bass Amp Room stuff, along with my REDDI on the way in. But, a friend said I should check it out.. and it just crushed. I love it. The EQ curve really sits in the mix in a nice way, without having to reign in the low end with extra EQ after tracking. The presets are good.
I haven't really been a fan of Brainworx GUIs and have not bought any of their amp models because of it. This one sold me.

B15 Brings the funk..
The Ampeg B15 is awesome! My Fender Jazz bass comes out punchy, clean, tight bottom and more. It's outstanding and keeps the "funk poppin!"
J. Arielly
Awesome plugin!
I've been playing bass for over 20 years. It's always hard to get a great bass sound at my home studio, so when I saw the bundle of Ampeg amps, I was eager to try them all. I was sure that the SVT will be my obvious choice, but the B-15 actually sounded better to me. If you're looking for a big bass sound, use a DI box to split the bass signal and record two bass tracks into the Apollo, one real DI sound, and the second through the B-15, there's no phasing and the sound is unbelievable!

Rock it
This amp is my first choice for rock bass sounds and it inspires me to create many new bass-lines.
The crunchy and distorted sounds are the best and i use them a lot of times.
In combination with Galaxy Tape Echo, Studio D Chorus and Roland CE-1 Chorus i have a great sound for chords and solo.

Deep and Warm
This is really a good Plug, good control in the deep and very warm sound. great work
C. Gale
Great!
Been using modelled amps for a while (guitar and bass), but it hasn't been till I ran a track through this that I've that thought that it sounded like a real amp. SO much more realistic and genuine-sounding than what I'd been using. Very impressed!

Makes me sound like a real bass player...
Really... Great product. It's so nice just to dial in a sound and know that it is going to sit well in the mix.
T. Marrison
Superb
I have the Ampeg SVT-VR plug-in, which I thought set a new benchmark for bass amp sims. This sounds even better. Different flavour from the SVT, very real-sounding, perfect for studio work. One request - please add a Blend knob to these plugins like Slate do to simplify our mix chains!
