UAD Oxide Tape
UAD’s cheapy/light/downsize version of tape emulation. But wait… it uses the exact amount of DSP resources that the Studer A800 uses. How can that be?
Lindell 6X-500
Not sure how this compares to the lunchbox hardware, which has a decent reputation for being quiet and getting the job done.
UAD Neve Preamp
I really like this as a simple unison plugin. You get the benefit of the 1073 preamp sound, and then can feed it into your own choice of EQ in the console app.
Waves Scheps 73
Both of these plugins sound good, I just lay awake at night wondering which actually sounds most like a real 1073.
