Well ponder no more my friends UA have delivered with the Spark system.
It’s not something I’ve done a lot, but when I’ve made that mistake, I’ve simply closed my laptop, sat back and pondered the question: when will UA start making full use of the more powerful computer processing chips and give us some native plugins? Not only that, opening a project full of UAD and UAD2 plugins without an attached Apollo interface or UAD2 Accelerator causes untold heartache and frustration. I love my Apollo x8p, but if I’m on a train journey with four hours to spare or stuck in a hotel room and want to spend my time completing a mix on my laptop, I can’t use my library of favourite plugins without an attached interface. Does the new service live up to UA's celebrated analogue hardware emulations? Headliner delved in and put the new plugins through their paces. UAD Spark is a new plugin subscription service that gives users access to Universal Audio quality plugins without the need for expensive and bulky hardware.
