In addition to the just-announced Ocean Way Studios plugin, Universal Audio (UA) has just launched v7.0 with two new Direct Developer plug-ins — SPL TwinTube and Sonnox Oxford Inflator.

Available now via UA’s Online Store, the SPL TwinTube Plug-In is $199. The Sonnox Oxford Inflator sells for $179. UAD Software v7.0 also includes the new UA-developed Ocean Way Studios Plug-In, available for $349.

Read on for the official information on these new plugins, as explained by UA:

SPL TwinTube Processor Plug-In

Developed by SPL for the UAD Powered Plug-Ins Platform, the SPL TwinTube Processor Plug-In is an authentic software version of the world-class tube effects processor, adding analog tube warmth, saturation, and harmonic distortion without impacting dynamic range. With two fully independent stages — which can be run together or separately — the SPL TwinTube Plug-In provides a wide-ranging palette of sonic shaping, from smooth and creamy overdrive to deep, growling saturation.
