The Waves just sounds a little more "mushy" to me, where the UAD is more punchy, which some may like more or less. The Waves SSL buss comp is probably the most respectable, but even that I prefer the UAD version since it has more life to it.
And the mkI SSL channel strips don't even seem to get much love on this board! Does that mean the Waves were terrible? No, but to my ear the UAD versions were better. UAD just sounded better in every respect. I have never used the real thing, but I will say that in direct comparisons of just these plugins, I thought the UAD versions were more transparent, had less artifacts and overall more dynamic range. the UAD (now mkI) SSL-both the channel strips and the buss comp. When I first moved to UAD from Waves, I did a lot of comparisons on my own tracks using the Waves SSL vs.
