UAD Powered Plug-Ins Manual - 30 - Using UAD Powered Plug-Ins

Automation Every UAD Powered Plug-In parameter can be automated if this feature is sup-

ported by the host application. Each host application has its own particular

methods for automation. Consult the host application documentation for spe-

cific instructions on using automation with the application.

Powered Plug-Ins reduce their UAD DSP load when bypassed or disabled, but

not their memory load. This feature allows for automatable load balancing of

DSP power, and keeps the track delay constant to avoid on/off clicks.

Note: If there is not enough DSP available when automating, the plugin may

not turn on.
