A/DA Flanger and Friedman Buxom Betty Amplifier Plug-Ins Released as part of UAD Software v9.5

SCOTTS VALLEY, CA • February 13th, 2018 — Universal Audio is pleased to announce the release of UAD Software v9.5. Alongside the new UA-developed Helios Type 69 Preamp and EQ Collection plug-in, this latest software release also offers plug-in titles from UA's direct developer partner, Brainworx.

Available exclusively for UAD-2 hardware and UA Audio Interfaces, the A/DA Flanger plug-in is an exacting emulation of this iconic, often outrageous sounding, bucket-brigade flanging pedal that gained mythical status in the late '70s and early '80s. Often referred to as "the Holy Grail of Flangers," the A/DA Flanger plug-in captures all the expansive depth of the original's Panasonic MN3010 bucket-brigade circuit, as well as plug-in-only features like tempo sync, mix control, and dual stereo modes.

A/DA Flanger Plug-In Key Features:

  • Precise modeling of both an original 1979 and modern 2009 A/DA reissue in one plug-in
  • Officially licensed and authenticated by A/DA Signal Processors
  • Unparalleled time delay range of 40:1 for extremely wide sweeps
  • Switch between odd or even harmonic emphasis for a variety of tones
  • Mono or stereo operation, including stereo upmixing from mono signals
  • Physical input impedance and hands-on control of gain staging with Unison™ technology
  • Available exclusively for UAD hardware and UA Audio Interfaces

Friedman® Buxom Betty Amplifier - $149* (*$99 for owners of UAD Friedman Amplifier Collection)

Available exclusively for UAD-2 hardware and UA Audio Interfaces the Friedman Buxom Betty Amplifier plug-in expertly captures all of the dynamic clean and crunch tones of the boutique, dual EL34-powered tone machine.
