I have worked with the Waves plugs for years, so I know them rather well. I
have never heard the UAD-1, though. What I can say about the Waves plug-ins
is that they can handle every job, and they sound awesome - although perhaps
a little too clean/cold for some people. But you've got the PSP plugs for
giving your sounds some attitude. The Waves plugs are great for all kinds of
jobs, from processing a track or complete mix through editing a little
mistake in a drumloop or even a whole mix. Say, you've got a great mix, but
the snare is too loud, and there's no way to remix. Just take the C1 with
side chain, find the frequency of the snare, compress that frequency, and
you're done!

I think that very precise work is not the strongest point of the UAD plugs.
On the other hand I'm sure they are all plug-ins with a great sound. They
also have a character of their own and will "colour" your programme
material. If that's what you're looking for it's a great choice.

Hope this helps a bit.
