Chapter 11: UAD-2 Satellite
System Sleep
System sleep while UAD-2 Satellite is active is not supported. Before sleeping
the system, quit all plug-in host applications (including the UAD Meter & Con-
trol Panel) and disconnect UAD-2 Satellite. After wake, UAD-2 Satellite may
be reconnected.
Important:
Quit all hosts and disconnect UAD-2 Satellite before system
sleep.
Important UAD-2 Satellite Notes
For maximum system stability and reduced possibility of data loss, please ob-
serve these requirements when operating UAD-2 Satellite:
• Due to differing architectures,
when UAD-2 Satellite is connected. LiveTrack Mode is also unavailable with
UAD-2 PCIe cards when UAD-2 Satellite is connected to the same system as
the card(s).
• UAD-2 Satellite has a minimum hardware buffer requirement of 512 sam-
ples. The hardware I/O buffer setting for the host and audio interface can
be adjusted to a value lower than 512 samples when UAD-2 Satellite is con-
nected, and the UAD-2 Satellite drivers dynamically adjust to allow for the
lower buffer setting while still maintaining UAD-2 Satellite's minimum buffer
requirement of 512 samples.
Note:
For the lowest latency while tracking, disable any plug-ins currently
running on UAD-2 Satellite from the input tracks and the monitoring and/or
master output paths.
• All devices on the FireWire bus share the available data bandwidth of the
bus, including external hard drives and audio interfaces as well as UAD
plug-ins. The amount of UAD DSP that is available for UAD plug-in process-
ing can exceed the available FireWire bandwidth. For these reasons, the
value of the
“UAD Bandwidth Allocation” on page 66
setting is critical. See
“FireWire Bandwidth” on page 109
for more details.
• All three FireWire ports on UAD-2 Satellite may be used concurrently as a
FireWire hub, however FireWire bus power is not supplied to downstream
devices. See
for details.
• See
“Mixing FireWire Speeds” on page 108
for important information
about using FireWire 800 and FireWire 400 devices on the same bus.
