Universal Audio has announced the release of UAD Software v9.12 for UA audio interfaces and UAD accelerators.
The update introduces the Neve 1084 Preamp & EQ plugin, a precise emulation of the coveted British channel module that combines the Neve sound with extended EQ and Unison preamp integration with Apollo interfaces.
