[Free for a limited time] Universal Audio's "UA 610 Tube Preamp & EQ Collection" (normally $49.00) is a channel strip plug-in that faithfully recreates the UA 610 console and the 2-610 Dual Channel Tube Preamplifier, and is available for free for a limited time. A Native version was released prior to the campaign, and it's unclear whether this is to commemorate that, but it's surprisingly being given away for free. The official description of the emulation source requires some deciphering, but of the two included plug-ins, 610-A is based on the original vintage modular console, while 610-B is an emulation of modern hardware based on the 610, modeling the preamp and EQ section of the 2-610 Dual Channel Tube Preamplifier.

Add vintage warmth and texture to vocals, guitars, synths, and drums.
The UA 610 Tube Preamp & EQ Collection delivers the incredible harmonic detail and rich distortion characteristics of sought-after vintage hardware and its modern counterparts.

610-A: Explore the rich tones of a vintage audio legend.

The only faithful emulation of UA founder Bill Putnam Sr.'s original 610 channel, the UA 610-A plug-in delivers the same warm, lustrous sound used to record legendary albums by Ray Charles, Elvis Presley, Neil Young, Van Halen, Frank Sinatra, and more.

The easiest way to increase tube saturation.

The 610 is designed to create killer sounds quickly. Simply insert it on vocal, bass, or synth channels to add texture and grit to instruments that blend perfectly into your mix—without turning a knob.
