Note:
The displayed sample latency number does not include the extra sam-
ples produced by upsampled UAD plug-ins. For more detailed information
about the extra samples and latency, see
Hardware
Section
Detailed information about each UAD device and its DSP is displayed in the
Hardware area (
). If you have several devices in-
stalled, use the scrollbar to see the other devices.
Device Status
For each installed device, a small picture of the hardware and its status is dis-
played. When the device displays Status: OK the hardware is operating
properly. The total number of UAD plug-ins loaded on each device is also dis-
played here.
Device Enabled
Individual UAD devices can be disabled using the Device Enabled but-
ton. This can be useful, for example, if creating a session on a system
with multiple devices that will be transferred to a system with fewer de-
vices or to streamline the performance of the host system when multiple de-
vices are not needed.
Click the button to disable an individual device. The device is en-
abled when the button is blue. For additional information regarding
multidevice use, see
Chapter 5, “Using Multiple UAD Devices.”
Devices remain disabled only while the UAD Meter & Control Panel applica-
tion is open. When the UAD Meter & Control Panel is quit, disabled devices
are re-enabled.
Note:
Disabling devices does not disable plug-ins already running on the de-
vice; it only prevents additional plug-ins from being loaded onto it.
Important:
For optimum results, quit any host applications using UAD
plug-ins before disabling/enabling devices.
DSP Load
If more than one UAD DSP is installed, information for each of the processors
is displayed. DSP, Program (“PGM”), and Memory (“MEM”) loads are dis-
played as a percentage of total available load for that processor.
The number of UAD plug-ins (“PLG”) running on each individual processor is
also displayed.
