As authentic emulations, the Hitsville EQ Collection allows users to harness the same equalizers that shaped countless Motown hits. “You can’t overstate Motown’s contribution to the trajectory of modern music,” says Bill Putnam Jr., CEO of Universal Audio. “We’re thrilled to bring the legacy of Hitsville USA and the Motown sound to the next generation of creators.” Featuring the all‑purpose graphic EQ alongside the first‑ever emulation of Hitsville’s rare mid/side disk mastering EQ, with legendary "Motown Filters" and half‑speed frequency settings, the Hitsville EQ Collection packages the vintage sound of Motown’s most revered studio tools for Apollo and UAD Spark customers.

LasWaltz Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 I feel that the spark thing points to the fact that onle few people will pay 300$ at UAD for what you can get at PA for 30. Disclaimer. Happy UAD user 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Fowler Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 Does "for Spark and Apollo" mean that UAD aren't making new plugs for satellite owners? It's annoying enough that they don't give two hoots about Windows users, without Windows satellite users being doubly shafted! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think all UAD plugins run on all thier stuff. I have an Apollo, a Satellite, and a PCIe card and all my UAD pkugins work on all of them. The only plugins that are "exclusive " are the ones for Luna. I think what they mean by "For Apollo users" is the Apollo's ability to use the plugins in the Unison tech slot of the Apollo.
