Hey guys,
So i'm thinking of buying a UAD-1e card but i don't really know which one to go for. Is it better to buy the express pack & then later on purchase the plug-ins separately or just for the the expert pack since it comes with a $750 voucher?
Also i have a Intel DP35DP motherboard which has two slots PCIe x 1 & one slot of PCIe x 16. Does anyone know which format the UAD cards are? Thanks for the help.

express pak is good for begining, later on u get more plugs, remember that u got 14 days testing time for all plugins, so u try them all than decide what u need most, also UAD giving free vouchers sometimes too 
PCIe x 1 it's just right for UAD
p.s. forgot to say that UAD is very, very adictive....u can use up to 4 cards on single system 
Good choose

it s not addictive it s just you need more card to run more plugs i think it s very bad purchase for the power you get.soon they ll run only 1 plugs per card,maybe it s hapening already? |

Thanks for the input wi']['ch. Won't it cost more to buy the plug-ins separately though? With the express pack i pay $500 more & get a $750 voucher. So that's like $250 in free plug-ins.
Or maybe you're right i should just use them & then see which one's i need.
@ PoM
I've heard praise about those as well but are they as good as UAD?

1: Your UADe will run on all of the slots of your computer.
2: Definitly go for the version with the 750 voucher. one day you will end up wanting to buy more plugins anyway, and then you saved 250bucks.
3: power of the card is not very high, but still its cool. Furthermore the plugins are great and the part that cost the money. one day there will be a new more powerful card from uad and you wil not have to buy the plugins again. just the card.

sony oxford plugins is VERY nice, and the limiter is by far the best software limiter IMO - but i love my UAD plugins. I really would not know what to do if i couldnt use them anymore
i regret i didnt buy the expert pak, it would have saved me some money.

the neve 33609 runs only one instance, in stereo, 2 in mono. so i agree on this one. the cards could be more efficient.

i hope a new card is coming soon ,or release the plugs native ... the sonnox is a better buy imo, the plugs are really very good, not only the limiter ,and it ll cost less maybe.now i ll wait for a new card from ua cause they need to upgrade ! |

You can always use more power on a DSP card or a processor. For me it's the quality of the plugins that counts and most of the time i use a few compressors and Cambridge eq's and mostly on subgroups. Using it this way i have seldom felt limited by the processing power of the UAD-1. You're right about the Sonnox plugins though. As they say: Powercore + UAD-1 = heaven
