Using the UAD Meter
The UAD Meter & Control Panel can be launched or quit at any time. It does
not need to be open or active to use UAD Powered Plug-Ins. It is completely
independent and does not require a host application. You can move the UAD
Meter to a convenient location on your screen by dragging its window title
bar.
Always On Top The UAD Meter window can be set to normal or “Always on top” (floating)
view mode. In normal mode, the window can be covered by windows of the
foreground application. When in ‘Always on top’ mode, the Meter window
always “floats” on top of other windows, even when other applications are in
the foreground, so you can always see the meter and access the disable but-
tons (
page 63 ). This setting is saved when the meter is quit.
To enable Always on top mode, click the control panel menu in the Meter win-
dow title bar (
Figure 8 on page 65 ) and select “Always on top.” The mode is
active when a checkbox appears next to the item in the menu.
Note: If “No Devices Found” appears in the UAD Meter window instead of
the expected buttons and gauges, then the UAD drivers are not communicat-
ing with the UAD hardware. If this occurs, double-check hardware and soft-
ware installations and/or contact customer support.
