“We launched the UAD Spark plug-in subscription earlier this year, bringing the authentic and inspiring sounds of classic studio and music gear to creators, with or without UA hardware. Today, we’re thrilled to be able to extend that vision and bring professional UA sound to our Windows community as well.” - Bill Putnam Jr., founder and CEO of Universal Audio
