"EMT is certainly excited to partner with Universal Audio; I am confident our endorsement of UA's emulations of EMT's well-loved classic audio processors will bring both companies great success," said EMT's President, Jules Limon. "It's very inspiring to see a team like UA's take such a keen interest in accurately recreating the devices of the past with their scientific approach to digital signal processing."

• Highly prized, fully endorsed, smooth and natural EMT® 140 Classic Plate Reverb emulations
• Includes three distinct plate models—each with a unique sound and discrete mechanical damper controls

"EMT's impact on the way records are made is right up there with the Neumanns and Studers of the world," commented Universal Audio President Matt Ward.
