Ocean Way Studios Plug-In
Used this is on a few sessions since I got this and each time for different tasks. The first time was when I got given stems to master an EP for a band and the guitar recordings left a lot to be desired so I used the reamp feature and it did exactly what I wanted it to do by smoothing out the sound and adding character to the sound. The second time was while mixing a track that was recorded in a small carpeted room, the track consists of acoustic guitar, acoustic double bass, acoustic cello, trumpet, flute, piano and vocals and the recording sounding very flat and dry so used the reverb function to bring life to the tracks. Both instances I was left massively impressed with the plug in and how natural sounding it is even under extreme use.

Ocean Way Studios beautiful
I just got this so my first impression is WOW! The remic is amazing. Placed it on the master of an older song and it made me feel as if I were actually IN the studio. Haven't worked with the reverb but I'm sure I'll use this on all future projects.

Surprising plug-in
This is one of those plug-ins that when you read about it you get septic, but after you use it you understand the power of it.
Only used in in re-amp mode and it can give life to dead recordings but not like a reverb, it's hard to explain. I used it mainly in acoustic guitars recorded at my flat, the recordings were ok but when you put this plug in on top of it, approach the close mic to its max and making it predominant between the 3 existing mics, you can really listen the power of this plug in, it gives a little extra to you sound. The mid and far mics are there to give you more depth to the sound and some of the far mics can give you stereo bass. Used it in the master bus for orchestral material but doesn't always work. A bit pricey.

Wish my Twin Duo could handle more instances
With a large set of virtual instruments to deal with I'm wishing for way more opportunities to use the Ocean Way and the 610's. In a way I feel as if I'm right back in 1965 for two reasons: Back then I had two or four tracks only and had to bounce down. Today I have many tracks ..but still have to bounce down. I feel like I'll never be able to afford the "big time." With that said, I've respect for the work you've done. It is superb to my ears.

Almost magical!
I love using it to turn mediocre samples/loops into something vibrant and alive by giving the illusion of actual space. The GUI is simple and effective. The sound is very persuasive. The effect is more than essential. It's almost magical IMO.

Uad - another game changer plug.
Nice job on this one, gents - GREAAT room simulation, flexibility in mic choice and proximity. I am finding this plug in extremely useful to add 'reality' to otherwise sterile tracks, including d/i instruments. Also finding it great to glue together instruments recorded separately - brings them all into the same space. Not using it as a 'reverb' recently - more as a 'room reality' creator. GREAT JOB !

Ocean Way Studio
I read a couple reviews of this plug in before buying it where it was described as a one trick pony. They weren't lying. Basically all this plug in does is place your sound in a room. However it is PHENOMENAL at doing that. I have used it on a number of sources and it adds a depth to the sound that is very impressive. Ocean Way can place elements perfectly in a mix at times when separate reverbs and delays just aren't doing the trick. I have recommended this to several friends of mine who are also on uad. It is a must have for your in the box toolkit.

Another great win for my studio!!
The ocean way studio offers something totally new for me, especially with the re-mic function. As i am a home studio guy, doing arrangements, overdubs and small ep productions, ocean way is a game changer for me. I have no outboard gear and everything is ITB. My Virtual instruments like drums, synths, orchestral libraries sound so much better with this on the bus. You instantly hear the difference. The mic choices, mic positioning, panning, master eq options are awesome.
It is definitely a plugin you need to dedicate some time to find out whats right for you, but the presets are really really good starting points that will get you in the ballpark asap.
The reverb option is also incredible and sounds just insane out of the box. Thumps up!!

Not the easiest way around it
As much as I wanted to love this plug-in at first, I didn't when I demo-ed it. But I still got it anyways, knowing it'd be useful down the line.
It has saved my ass many times [mix sessions where there were no good drum room mics, and adding ambiances]. But it hasn't really been in an intuitive way.
I get the whole re-mic idea, and on paper it seems really cool. But the execution just isn't sensible for stuff that is tracked well - yet it's only really is meant for stuff that isn't tracked well.
Adding drum ambiance is what it does best. Really takes some careful bussing into it and a lot of messing with parameters in ways that I wouldn't expect to get a sound I dig. It does blend quite well once I'm there, though. Great plug still

Nothing but amazing!!
It's not just a reverb, I track drums on very big rooms every week , and this plugging save my day a few weeks ago when I had to mix some V-drums files, I send a mix of all my samples and then I printed the 3 layers of room mics to channels using different compressors on each And or the job done!!
I just like to be able to routing the 3 pairs of mic to individual returns to process the pairs at just one pass!!

very unique plugin
It was very easy to use than I expected. Great plugin for home studio / project studio owners without a great room to record. One of my fav plugs from UA.

Very nice!
I was very impressed with this plugin on various instruments. It really gives a nice warmth to everything. I've never been to the real Ocean Way Studios so I really have no idea how well it mimics the sound there but it does add very nice natural depth to my mixes without sounding fake at all (don't go overboard with it). The mic placement function ended up being much more useful than I had originally thought. Read the manual too. This thing does a bit more than meets the eye. Buy and enjoy!

I haven't used it a lot yet, but what I have used it on sounds amazing. Looking forward to experimenting more.

Ocean way or no way
fantastic way to beef up my recordings with a touch of expensive room sound!

More than a reverb
This plug-in is much more than just a reverb. I use it often on vocals to change the sounds - simulate different world class microphones and change the room mode.
If you want to move from good to brilliant and add a superb room to your music productions then consider this plug-in for your next purchase.

Amazing dimension
This plugin adds tone if u want, natural 3dimensional feel n sound better then a typical reverb. Mic options such as c12, u47 gave my instruments that feel good tone quickly.
I make hiphop music and let me tell you, use the room sound for lead vocal and backups n your guitars and synths and you will say wow!
Yes it's very pricey but my mixes sound like they were mixed by universal pictures after using Oceanway studio! Try it yourself, use the room vocal verb sound for lead vocal and use the group vocal preset for backup vox and listen for yourself. Then use the guitar presets in mic mode and see what it does to your synths pass pianos.
Thank UA now I just need you to do the adm1540 eq
