Good, but could be great
Right off the bat, you can only record on this using the opened back of the Leslie. This is fine for rock, I guess. But Don Leslie invented this cabinet to be heard from the front, through the louvres that he intentionally carved into the wood. Not offering this very BASIC option is tantamount to malpractice. Recording through the open back gives you a very phasey, thwocky, open-wood-hole sound that is not what you want for jazz, gospel and blues- which -guess what?- the Hammond organ tends to do a lot of. It almost seems like no real Hammond Organ players were consulted on this plugin at all, but "rockers" who want to run their guitars through a swirly effect got tons of say.
Gain staging can be a nightmare too. It seems to be best when you give it a very faint signal input. The output meter is utterly useless. It indicates nothing. At all. Ignore it.
All that said, it does sound remarkably like my real, vintage 122 when I remove the back panels, and that's exactly why i don't remove the back panels. Ever.
This could easily be a 5 star plugin if UA simply gave you the basic option of hearing the speaker the way it's inventor intended for it to be heard. (And don't give me any flack about being able to record through the louvres on the sides...that is NOT the same thing.) This is like meticulously emulating every aspect of a Fender Bassman amp, but only letting you mic it from above. It is a needless, staggering, unforced error.
I'm not withholding stars due to the fact that it's only native, since they tell you that upfront. But for Pete's sake, the Leslie is an incredibly important part of the hammond sound that shapes and changes your performance as an organ player. You are constantly relying on the sound of your leslie when performing. Pushing it harder or backing off based on how the Leslie responds. Since I cannot use this plugin in a unison slot, I am forced to GUESS how much to gain it as I perform, then apply the Leslie after the fact to see whether I GUESSED correctly. Far from ideal.
This is a decent plugin that could so, so ,so easily be an -invaluable- plugin. I hope UA listens.

Very classic
I love the depth and dimensionality that its chorus effect produces.
Very analogous and very classic.

Five Star Worthy
I've owned many effects over the years, both plug-in and hardware pieces. Waterfall is easily one of the most lush, ear pleasing, of them all. You'll find it's surprisingly useful on guitars, keyboards, and more. Try it sparingly to add uniqueness to your modern recordings, or apply it more heavily to teleport your sound back to the 1960s.

Classic
Great emulation of a studio classic!
R. Tulloch
Not too over powering and not too gentle
This Chorus has to be the best I've tried others but the UAD S audio D chorus does wonders
S. Lopez
The Classic!!
It’s a classic, grab it asap! Watch a video from UA on how to use it and go nuts!!!
C. Duru
Gets the job done
Nice and easy was to get wide effects, with rich color but transparent quality sound. Like the fact yu can combine different settings. And the price is right.

Excellent Plug
Je ne peux plus faire sans !

Lush
What can I say. It’s a lexicon. I can’t tell the difference from my rack unit that I had back in the early 90s which I wish I should’ve have never sold . But this was an awesome deal on sale

10/10 Tape Echo
I’ll probably never need another tape echo plug in ever, this thing rules and I have a dedicated aux track in my daw just for it on every session
R. Wehner
Spot on emulation of the hardware unit!
This makes it hard to justify buying a hardware 224 for the studio…
J. Callahan
Outstanding sound quality
I realized just how good this plugin sounds when I tried it after the Arturia version (which sounds great) and was blown away.
S. Batten
Why the modulation whether you want it or not
I've owned a heap of the originals and the wonky modulation is only in worn out ones with bad tapes or faulty or dirty capstan wheels. yeh sure its funky but you don't want it all the time, and it s not even random so stands out even worse on a sustained note. cmon Guys make the new tape switch get rid of the modulation. has no-one noticed this before?
J. SANMARTI
Fantastic!

R. Salay

Just the best Dimension D you could have in the box
The title says it. There is no need to have anything else to get that famous chorus sound.
B. Garden
