FireWire Panel

The UAD FireWire Panel (

Figure 13 on page 79

) is where settings specific to

UAD-2 Satellite are configured (FireWire settings do not apply to UAD
PCI/PCIe devices). The UAD-2 Satellite is an external UAD device that con-
nects via FireWire as opposed to PCI/PCIe or ExpressCard (see

Chapter 11,

“UAD-2 Satellite”

for details).

Note:

The FireWire Panel is only displayed if UAD-2 Satellite is connected.

FireWire System

The FireWire System parameters pertain to the configuration of the FireWire
bus. These settings affect UAD-2 Satellite performance and can also affect ex-
ternal FireWire audio interface and hard drive performance if they are con-
nected to the same FireWire bus.

The primary function of the FireWire System settings is to reduce the UAD-2
Satellite FireWire bandwidth allocation and/or link speed when other
FireWire devices are on the same bus, or if other performance issues arise.

Note:

The FireWire System settings cannot be changed when UAD plug-ins

are loaded. Quit all UAD plug-in host software to make changes to these set-
tings.

Important:

FireWire device connection methods can affect the FireWire

bus speed. See

“FireWire Bandwidth” on page 141

for details.
