From the release notes for 8.2:

About the Precision Mix Rack Collection

  • As of UAD v8.2, the Precision Mix Rack Collection plug-ins (Precision Channel Strip, Precision Delay Mod, Precision Delay Mod Long, Precision Reflection Engine) replace the discontinued EX-1, DM-1, DM-1L, and RS-1 plug-ins, respectively.
  • When sessions containing the discontinued EX-1, DM-1, DM-1L, and RS-1 plug-ins are loaded in UAD v8.2 (and higher), the discontinued plug-ins, and their settings and presets, are automatically migrated to their newer Precision Mix Rack Collection replacements.
  • For additional details about migrating the discontinued plug-ins from earlier UAD versions, see the “CS-1 Channel Strip” chapter in the UAD Plug-Ins Manual.
  • Complete documentation for all plug-ins in the Precision Mix Rack Collection is available in the UAD Plug-Ins Manual.

Don't think it's free, it simply says what's new in v8.2. We'll probably see a launch for the v8.2 and the new Precision Mix Rack later today!

EDIT: It does say free and that it replaces the old plugins:

Free Precision Mix Rack Collection featuring four plug-ins:
Precision Channel Strip
Precision Delay Modulation
Precision Delay Modulation Long
Precision Reflection Engine


What's New in UAD v8.2 Software:
  • Precision Mix Rack Collection
  • Neve 88RS Channel Strip Collection
  • Marshall Plexi Super Lead 1959 Plug-In
  • Tube-Tech CL 1B Compressor Plug-In
  • Compatibility with Pro Tools 12
  • Compatibility with Cubase 8

I'm confused... I already tred out the demo of the new 88rs... which is listed as a feature of 8.2? Was that new in 8.1? Not new anymore, yeah?....

Anyway, it does say "Now includes FREE precision mix rack" in the graphic banner.

EDIT: I guess this is a new version with a couple of bugs fixed, and those basic strip plugins updated to new "Precision" versions.
...but the ad graphics are still 88rs and Marshall Plexi.

I'll take it!

Ya, it's a stretch, all the other listed releases are already out. This release is really about the cs-1, not sure why they listed the releases from v8.1 :confused:

compatible with Pro Tools & Cubase - does that mean it's not yet compatible with other DAWs, or just reassurance that it is also compatible with those 2?

So this is made by Brainworx? If I google for it the first hit is a splice page with the title "UAD Precision Mix Rack by Plugin Alliance".

Their relationship just becomes more and more confusing to me.

Also from the new plugin manual it states improved sonics in addition to interface/features:

"The Precision Mix Rack Collection provides a modern interface, better controls,
added features, and improved sonics versus the prior CS-1 sub-module
plug-ins that they replace." (p. 102)

Hey all,

Glad you're digging the new Precision Mix Rack Collection. We hope it's going to be a nice *free* addition to everyone's toolbox. :)

We looked at the CS-1 and thought it would be much easier to take advantage of it it were broken down into individual plug-ins. We also took the time to look under the rocks and made a bunch of improvements so they look and sound great. Overall, they are much easier to use now and with the added features like true ping-pong delay in the delays, we hope you get a lot of utility out of them.

We did these in-house and the compatibility hasn't changed except for the addition of Cubase 8, Nuendo 7 and Pro Tools 12. The details are covered in the Release Notes.

Hope that helps!

Thanks for doing this! I have to admit that one of the reasons I never used the CS-1 was because of the GUI, just couldn't stand it. And I'm pleased to hear that there's also improvements under the hood!
I hope that Realverb gets the same treatment. :)

The make over is looking sweet, great job as usual. I'll load em up later and give them a spin :)

Does it load like a rack as in one instance?
