Great sounding plug-in, I love it!!!
It was the missing link on my productions. The use of FX was helping to achieve the depth needed but still was something missing. I tried this studio room emulation and instantly change the character of my song! The depth I was trying to achieve was finally present! it sounds great, every single set has a distinct character and the combinations are endless. You can adjust the settings to achieve your room sound from tight, small, big and bigger. However, the only limitation is that it consume a lot of processing power, I got a good processor (i9 with 14 processors and 28 threads & 64GB if RAM) and five instances make my PC running to the maximum. It will be great to have a DSP version to use it with a satellite unit. Hopefully UNIVERSAL AUDIO will read our reviews and work on making this possible!

Sounds great, but why no DSP version?
I love the sound and would like to use it on multiple tracks, but opening more than one instance on even a relatively simple mix causes my i9 CPU to stutter and crackle -- why isn't there a DSP version?

Good for solo strings and horn ensembles!
It brought a very nice pristine sound to my dry solo string librarie and also works on dry horns. For the moment I've been doing a lot of tweaking with the stereo width to avoid phase issues and using mid-side EQ to cut a lot from the sides. I'm sure there are better ways to deal with this problem but for the moment my solution to ear fatigue is a tighter stereo width which take away a little bit of the plugins magic. It also takes a big amount of CPU so four stars is more than fair because it delivers a good sound overall.

Great sound, flexible, good looks, and easy to use!
Excellent tool, very versatile and so much fun to use. Adds depth and atmosphere with ease, if that is what you are after. Can go from very subtle to pronounced reshaping of sound - it is a musical instrument all by itself. So nice for experimenting and easy to find good solutions. Perfect complement to a Capitol Chambers or Hitsville reverb chamber. And it looks amazing too. Will find its way on many mixes ...

The Sound City plug in is truly fantastic.
Without a doubt the sound city plug in is truly fantastic. the work done by the UA team for this plugin goes beyond. You are sound geniuses guys. Thank you for what you have done.
G. Kutscher
Great sounding addition
Sounds great on the drums and I’m just scratching the surface of its usefulness. And at a great price.
W. Krol
Great sounding for all.
This is the best sounding space plugin. Natural with many uses. I love him on all the instruments, only the main vocal requires a lot of twerking.

Gobsmacking cool for drums
I bought UAD Sound City Studios to hopefully bring some life to the drums on an album mix project. Boy howdy! I am working exclusively with the API Vision Console extension and that gorgeous piece of kit coupled with Sound City is just wonderful. Add to that having the ability to reconfigure drum room setup as mix is playing- I tweak and listen til I go that's IT!
Even with well-recorded drums I add a bit of Sound City on my parallel bus. Musical magic.

This is a GREAT Plugin
I use this plugin to achieve pure "room reverb". I find I don't need any other reverb plugin. I use it on vocals, and drums. It's awesome.

Heavy...
A very heavy sounding addition, most intrusive. Not suitable for many applications - would love to have access to the mix button control, even in the non reverb mode. If one needs anything clear and punchy, it's a no-go!
S. Downie
Amazing reverb and mix plugin - one of the best !
what a fab plugin, for reverb, for space and for mixing with. the UA developers alongside the sound city studio have done an amazing job at preserving this sound of this studio and making it available to all, before the studio itself disappears . I'm now using this plugin in my Dolby Atmos mixes, but with this plugin had more mutiple outputs so that I can apply the reverb to the Dolby Atmos mix, rather than stereo.
L. Hill
More than amazing
Of all the simulations, capitol studios and the like, this to me is the best. Maybe it's the newness, but I've been using with horns, vocals, and guitars with great effect. Highly recommended.
