Chapter 4: API Vision Console Channel Strip

Displayed

Values

Knob settings, when compared to the graphical user interface silkscreen num-
bers, may not match the actual parameter values. For example, in the 215L
Sweep Filters module, the highest value shown in the plug-in window is 20
kHz. However, the actual value when the knob is at maximum is 40 kHz.

This behavior is identical to the original hardware, which is modeled exactly.
When the plug-in is viewed in parameter list mode (controls and/or automa-
tion views), the actual parameter values are displayed.

Artist Presets

The API Vision Console Channel Strip includes artist presets from prominent
API users. The artist presets are in the internal factory bank and are accessed
via the host application’s preset menu. The artist presets are also placed by
the UAD installer so they can be used within Apollo’s Console application.
The presets can be loaded using the Settings menu in the UAD Toolbar (see
“Using UAD Powered Plug-Ins” in Chapter 7 of the UAD System Manual).

This plug-in includes additional artist presets that are not available in the in-
ternal factory bank. These additional presets can also be accessed using the
Settings menu in the UAD Toolbar.

Unison™

Integration

The API Vision Console Channel Strip features Unison mic preamp
technology integration with the mic preamp hardware in Universal
Audio’s Apollo audio interfaces. With Unison, Apollo’s ultra-trans-
parent mic preamps inherit all the unique sonic and input characteristics of the
API Vision 212L hardware preamp module.

Realistic Tandem Control

Unison facilitates seamless interactive control of API Vision Console Channel
Strip plug-in settings using Apollo’s digitally-controlled panel hardware
and/or the plug-in interface. All equivalent preamp controls (gain, pad, po-
larity) are mirrored and bi-directional. The preamp controls respond to adjust-
ments with precisely the same interplay behavior as the API Vision Console
Channel Strip hardware, including gain levels and clipping points.
