Find and buy Universal Audio products, a brand founded in 1958 by Bill Putnam Sr., the inventor of the modern mixing console, then re-founded in 1999 by these two sons, James and Bill junior.

The approach of Universal Audio is to reproduce the best recording devices from yesterday to today.

Universal Audio designs, manufactures and distributes digital interfaces with analog sound modeled by effects processors (DSP) . For several years, the brand has expanded its offer with effects pedals & plugins offering virtual instruments . The company was renowned from the outset for its tube preamps (including the 610) which were integrated into the mixing and recording consoles also manufactured by Universal Audio. Its consoles equipped many studios in the 60s. After a takeover in 1965 by the Studio Electronics group, Universal Audio continued to distribute its products under its name while taking advantage of the strength of its owner to develop its notoriety. After several twists and turns, UAD will eventually join forces with Teletronix in 1999 to produce virtual models of its products. It is in 2012 that the first audio interfaces appear integrating a DSP to consolidate the performance of its plugins. Universal Audio will be rewarded with several prestigious prizes including the TEC Award.
