Control
Differences
The UA 610-A and UA 610-B plug-ins (
) have simi-
lar controls and layouts.
For some parameters, the function of these controls is identical for both plug-
ins. In the parameter descriptions below, controls and/or descriptions that
are common to both plug-ins are detailed at the top of each control name sec-
tion.
Any differences and/or controls that are unique to each specific plug-in are
detailed after the common description.
Presets
The UA 610 plug-ins include presets in the internal factory bank which are ac-
cessed via the host application’s preset menu. The presets are also copied to
disk by the UAD installer so they can be used within Apollo’s Console appli-
cation. The presets can be loaded using the Settings menu in the UAD Toolbar
(see “Using UAD Powered Plug-Ins” in Chapter 7 of the UAD System Manual).
UA 610 Latency
The UA 610 plug-ins use an internal upsampling technique to achieve sonic
design goals. This upsampling results in a slightly larger latency (55 samples;
85 samples at 176.4 and 192 kHz) than non-upsampled UAD plug-ins. These
additional samples are automatically compensated by modern host DAWs.
See “Delay Compensation” in the UAD System Manual for more information.
Unison™
Integration
The UA 610 plug-ins feature Unison mic preamp technology integra-
tion with the mic preamp hardware in Universal Audio’s Apollo au-
dio interfaces. With Unison, Apollo’s ultra-transparent mic preamps
inherit all the unique sonic and input characteristics of the 610 hardware
preamp, including the mic, line, and Hi-Z inputs.
Realistic Tandem Control
Unison facilitates seamless interactive control of 610 preamp plug-in settings
using Apollo’s digitally-controlled panel hardware and/or the plug-in inter-
face. All equivalent preamp controls (gain, pad, polarity, etc) are mirrored
and bi-directional. The preamp controls respond to adjustments with precisely
the same interplay behavior as the 610 hardware, including gain levels and
clipping points.
