Chapter 5: UAD Meter & Control Panel
Overview
The UAD Meter & Control Panel application is used to authorize UAD
plug-ins, monitor UAD device resources, configure the global UAD Pow-
ered Plug-Ins system parameters and confirm the UAD system is oper-
ating properly. The application consists of two components: The UAD
Meter, and the UAD Control Panels.
UAD Meter – This window (below) displays the current DSP, program,
and memory status of the UAD hardware (these gauges are also displayed within the Re-
altime Rack software application).
UAD Control Panel – This window (
see page 125 ) has multiple panels that display and
modify various system, plug-in, and configuration parameters.
With Realtime Rack, the UAD Meter & Control Panel application is used primarily for
UAD plug-in authorization after software updates, viewing the individual resources of
multiple Realtime Rack units, and starting demo periods for UAD plug-ins.
