Install Software
First
If you are installing UAD Powered Plug-Ins for the first time, install the software
before installing the UAD device(s). This is particularly important on Windows
systems. If you are updating to a newer version of the software or installing
additional UAD devices, it is not necessary to remove the previous UAD soft-
ware or hardware from the system, but you should still install the newer soft-
ware before adding new devices.
Note:
The UAD Powered Plug-Ins software installer is identical for all UAD
hardware (there are only two UAD installers, one each for Win & Mac).
Install Options
The UAD software is comprised of many components, and the version of all
the components must match for proper operation. When the UAD installer is
run, all existing UAD components are deleted to avoid version mismatch.
Therefore, it is necessary to select all the desired driver and plug-in format op-
tions during each UAD installation. Partial installations are not possible.
Important:
Select all desired options each time the UAD installer is run. Pre-
viously installed components are deleted during installation.
Win & Mac
Software installation and removal for Windows and Mac platforms have their
own particular procedures; each are described below.
Important:
Close all open files and applications before starting the instal-
lation procedure. Specifically, make sure the UAD Meter & Control Panel and
all UAD host applications are not running.
