In this article, we explain which bundle or promotion is the best offering for you, depending on your particular situation and exposure to the UA ecosystem.
I am new to Universal Audio, or I don't own any Apollo/Satellite hardware
If you are completely new to Universal Audio products, or if you don't own any Apollo or Satellite hardware, we recommend you take a look at our UAD Native plug-ins and associated bundles.
Give these options a look:
- UAD Spark Studio — Best for users who want access to almost our entire native plug-in lineup and the full LUNA experience.
- UAD Select Bundles – Best for users who don't own Apollo or Satellite hardware and want to build their own bundle. Only native plug-ins can be picked in UAD Select bundles*.
- LUNA Studio – Best for users who want a solid bundle of plug-ins and are interested in using LUNA with its full feature set.
*If you select a plug-in that has a UAD DSP counterpart, that license will also be included when you purchase it in a UAD Select Bundle, even if you do not have an Apollo.
I am familiar with Universal Audio, or I already own an Apollo / Satellite
If you already own UAD hardware, give these options a look:
- UAD Ultimate 15 — Includes 128 plug-ins from the Universal Audio catalog, from both the UAD DSP and UAD Native platforms.
- UAD Complete 5 — Includes close to the entirety of the UA catalog, featuring 152 separate product titles containing 204 individual plug-ins.
Note: Some plug-ins, such as all the UAD Instruments, Capitol Mastering Compressor, Sound City Studios, and Waterfall Rotary Speaker, only come in the UAD Native format. For more information on which plug-ins are available in the UAD Native platform, please read this article.
