UAD Powered Plug-Ins Manual - 113 - Chapter 9: UAD Delay Compensation
Live Processing
The previous discussions of delay compensation applies primarily to play-
back and mixing of existing tracks. During recording (tracking), the primary
concern usually centers around getting the absolute lowest possible latency
out of your hardware and software combination. The lower the latency is, the
closer you can get to a realtime, “ears match the fingers” performance situa-
tion in the digital environment where some latency is unavoidable.
Realtime latency is displayed in the System Information panel (page 65)
within the UAD Meter & Control Panel application.
UAD-1 Minimizing realtime latency is simply a matter of setting the audio I/O inter-
face device driver buffer setting as low as possible before system overloads
or diminished audio quality (such as distortion) occurs. The manufacturer of
the sound output device in use may offer additional tips for optimizing latency
on systems that use their hardware.
UAD-2 The UAD-2 has an advanced buffering architecture that delivers no additional
latency when tracking by using LiveTrack Mode. See “LiveT
rack Mode” on
page 89 for details.
