UAD System Manual - 75 - Chapter 7: Using UAD Powered Plug-Ins
Windows The default preset location is inside the Presets folder, which is created within
the folder specified during software installation. For example, if the default lo-
cation was selected when running the installer, the location would be:
• C:\Program Files\Universal Audio\Powered Plugins\Presets
Note: This default location can be changed during installation; the new lo-
cation will be remembered as the default.
Mac On Mac OS X systems, the default preset location is:
• Startup Disk/Library/Application Support/Universal Audio/Presets
Copy/Paste
Settings
Settings can copied and pasted directly between
UAD plug-ins (within the compatibility guidelines)
without using the interim step of creating a preset
file.
To copy/paste settings between UAD plug-ins, select Copy Settings from the
drop-menu of the source plug-in, then select Paste Settings from the drop-menu
of the destination plug-in.
Note: If the menu displays “Cannot Paste Settings” then settings were not
copied first, or the paste destination is an incompatible plug-in.
LiveTrack Mode
Overview LiveTrack Mode reduces latency on an active UAD-2 plug-in to the
lowest possible amount. This feature is highly useful for monitoring
processed audio when recording live performances.
Reduced latency in LiveTrack Mode is accomplished by circumventing the
standard buffering processes. Normally, UAD-2 signal data is buffered at the
audio interface I/O sample buffer size (such as 128, 512, or 1024 samples)
which results in a processing delay.
In LiveTrack Mode, UAD-2 signal data is transferred and processed “immedi-
ately” instead of being buffered, resulting in reduced latency.
Note: LiveTrack Mode is available exclusively with UAD-2 PCIe devices.
When a UAD-2 FireWire device (UAD-2 Satellite or Apollo) are in use by the
system, LiveTrack Mode cannot be used.
