"Universal Audio's EP-34 Tape Echo plug-in gives guitar players and mix engineers the rich, warm tape delay effects of vintage Echoplex units, now on the UAD-2 Powered Plug-Ins platform for Mac and PC. One need only listen to classic recordings from Jimmy Page, Brian May, Chick Corea, Eddie Van Halen, Eric Johnson and Andy Summers to hear the Echoplex sound in action. Unlike other Echoplex emulations, the EP-34 is the first plug-in that targets specific behaviors of both the EP-3 and EP-4 Echoplexes.

• Highly desirable sound of original EP-3 and EP-4 Echoplex tape delay units, now available as a UAD-2 plug-in for Mac or PC
• Tape echo effects virtually indistinguishable from those used on countless classic recordings of the past six decades
• Unique movable record head design creates warm, rich sound unlike any other delay unit
• Provides a range of tones, from simple slap effects to self-oscillation chaos
• Amalgam of features from EP-3 and EP-4 hardware units, plus "digital only" extras for modern mix use
• Requires a UAD-2 DSP Accelerator Card
"

The EP-34 Tape Echo Plug-In is available now at a price of $199.

On top of that, the UAD VCA VU is now officially licensed and renamed to UAD dbx® 160.
