UA Paradise Guitar Studio is a new all‑in‑one guitar plugin from Universal Audio that gives you a complete virtual recording chain with amps, cabs, mics, pedals, and studio effects inside a single window. It is designed so you can go from plugging in your guitar to getting “record‑ready” tones without needing separate amp sims, pedal plugins, or extra studio FX.
What it includes
- 11 modeled tube amps covering clean, crunch, and boutique high‑gain styles, based on UA’s established UAD amp emulations like Dream ’65 and other classic voices.
- Dozens of matching cabinet and microphone combinations (about 35 curated pairs) voiced like a pro studio setup to minimize tweaking time.
- Integrated pedal‑style effects (drives, modulation, delays) plus studio processors such as 1176‑style compression, EQ, tape echo, spring and plate reverbs.
- Over 300 presets across genres like rock, blues, indie, metal, funk, and pop to give you instant usable tones.
How it works
The plugin runs natively on macOS and Windows in your DAW, so you do not need dedicated UA hardware to use it. The interface is laid out like a pedalboard and signal‑chain view where you can drag and drop components, reorder blocks, and route effects pre‑ or post‑amp for flexible tone shaping.
Typical use cases
- Home and project studios that want high‑quality amp and room sounds without miking real amps.
- Producers who need fast recallable tones and genre‑specific presets for writing and mixing sessions.
- Guitarists who want a “dream studio” rig in a laptop for live, mobile, or silent practice while still feeling responsive and amp‑like under the fingers.
If you tell what DAW, style, and guitar you use, a tailored starting preset chain can be suggested for Paradise Guitar Studio.
