UAD Powered Plug-Ins Manual - 103 - Chapter 9: UAD Delay Compensation
Host Application
Settings
For optimum results, the “Plug-in Delay Compensation” option setting should
be enabled in the host application. This will provide automatic latency com-
pensation when UAD plug-ins are used on track inserts (and
sends/groups/buses if full compensation is supported), so the UAD Delay-
Comp will not have to be used. This option is usually found in the audio or
plug-in preferences window. The specific location of the setting for this option
within some popular applications is as follows:
• Cubase 5.x: Options Menu>Audio Setup>System...
• Nuendo 1.x, Cubase SX 1.x: File Menu>Preferences>VST
• Cubase SX 2/3, Nuendo 2/3: Always on.
(Steinberg’
s Constrain Delay Compensation feature can be used to disable
delay compensation on individual plug-ins: Devices Menu>Plug-in Informa-
tion)
• Emagic Logic Audio (PC): Options Menu>Preferences>Audio Preferences...
• Apple Logic Pro: Preferences>Audio...
• MOTU Digital Performer 4.5+: Setup menu>Configure Audio System>Con-
figure Studio Settings...
• Cakewalk Sonar, Sony applications, Mackie Tracktion: Automatic.
(No preference for enabling/disabling other than tur
ning off or removing
plug-ins that require delay compensation.
• Samplitude: Options Menu>Project Properties>Mixer Setup...
(Project independent; session file must be open to configure)
• Ableton Live: Options>Delay Compensation
• Pro Tools: Options/Playback Engine>Delay Compensation Engine
UAD-1 Delay Compensator
The UAD-1 Delay Compensator (UAD DelayComp for short) is a simple
UAD–1 plug-in which can be used to synchronize unprocessed tracks with
those that are processed by UAD Powered Plug-Ins. It provides a mechanism
of delay compensation for situations when the host application does not im-
plement automatic plug-in latency compensation, such as on sends, groups,
and buses (see Table 6 on page 102).
