Apollo Solo Manual Using UAD Plug-Ins 215
Status Indicator
The Status indicator in the UAD Toolbar displays information about the current state of
the plug-in. Each state is described below.
Start Demo – When START DEMO is displayed, the 14-day trial period for the particular
plug-in has never been activated. Clicking this button will start the demonstration period
(you can also start the demo in the UAD Control Panel’s Status Column.
Important: The 14-day demo period can only be activated once, and cannot be
stopped or restarted during this period. Don’t activate demo mode unless you have
adequate time to thoroughly evaluate its sound and functionality.
Demo Active – After starting the demo, and when the plug-in is still within the active
14-day trial period, the number of days remaining in demo mode is displayed here.
Disabled – When DISABLED is displayed in red, the plug-in will not process audio. This
can occur in two situations: either the demo period has expired (click the Buy button!),
or the UAD DSP is overloaded and there are not enough UAD resources to run the
plug-in.
Blank – When no text is displayed in the Status area, the plug-in is licensed and
operating normally. In this state, the Buy button is not displayed.
