Magia
Alla fine del mio mix, sul bus master una volta acceso fa una magia, e prima del master già suona tutto meglio, il che facilita il lavoro dopo

The Chain
I usually use the Variable MU before the Shadow Hills and 'tickle' the audio content before applying the Ampex 102. It is a 'must have'.

GREAT PLUG!
I love this thing. Use it on ALL my mixes EVERY TIME!

Weighty punch!
I have been using it a lot on my master buss and it works great. Massaging the flow of music and adding nice, transparent punch.
You can have a lot of fun and learn how it works when you listen to Spotify via UAD Console and run it through Shadow Hills.
It will make some of the streamed tracks sound more punchy :) not all of them of course!
One of the best purchases for my UAD arsenal, highly recommended!

Make it knock!
Choose your flavour from the transistors on it (there are 3 of them), go to the opto comp and finish it with a -2db gr.. thats it, your masters will sound as big as mainstream songs do.

Bravo
I own the 500 series dual Vandergraph and while the hardware settings are somewhat inflexible, I was able to tweak the plugins discrete section to sound almost identicle. Can’t speak for the optical section except that the plugin version sounds good (have not compared to hardware unit) Only difference was some slight calibration issues. Hardware was hotter in general. For $300 vs. 2G it’s kinda no brainer. I read some bad reviews on this so I bought the dual Vandergraph expecting more....maybe hearing a 1% difference if that. I recommend this plugin.

Master bus magic
I don't have any experience whatsoever using the hardware version of this unit, but I will say that the plugin works wonders on my master bus. It's hardly subtle but never obnoxious. Even though the controls are a bit... complicated, my mixes started getting way better after I figured out my preferences. I've since started mixing into it and I can't imagine not using this one anymore. Great stuff.

Best UAD plugin!
With it´s special compression caracteristics and extraordinary musical
E. Deon
Lacks a lot in drum transients compared to HW dynamics
Just compare to the test file in this thread:
https://www.gearslutz.com/board/gear-shoot-outs-sound-file-comparisons-audio-tests/699125-hardware-compressor-amp-limiter-comparison-thread-audio-files.html
Sadly, the shadow hill comp is amazing over the whole track, but the plugin just sucks out the transients in a way all too common for SW dynamics. Easy to find the plugin in a level matched blind test. UAD 1176s are great, but this doesn't seem to cut it.

Love this UA plug in!
Really beautiful color and more!
Definitely happy with this purchase!

My new go-to plugin!!!!
This plugin is going on everything from my drum bus, vocal bus, synths, fx, and another on the mix bus. This adds just the right amount of beef that i love.

So far, so Good
Just using it for subtle compression on tracks and it seems extremely transparent. Looking forward to learning more of what it can do
