Apollo Solo USB Manual Unison 169
Unique Behavior of Unison Inserts
Console’s Unison inserts have some operational differences compared to standard
inserts, as described below.
Available UAD plug-ins
Only Unison plug-ins are available for selection from the Insert Assign Popover when
inserting UAD plug-ins into the Unison insert. Non-Unison plug-ins are not visible in the
Insert Assign popover with Unison inserts.
Note: All available Unison plug-ins are installed during the normal UAD Powered
Plug-Ins software installation process (they are not separately installed).
Linked insert enable and plug-in enable controls
Console’s Unison insert enable/disable switch and the Unison plug-in’s
on/off switch in the plug-in interface are linked. Changing either on/off
setting will also change the other setting.
Disabled Unison plug-ins
When a Unison plug-in is unintentionally disabled (for example, when UAD-2 DSP
resources are exceeded upon insertion), the red disabled indicator (see Insert State
Indicators) does not appear as it does with non-Unison plug-ins. However, in this
situation (unlike standard UAD plug-ins) the following indications do occur:
• The power switch within the Unison plug-in window is switched off
• The Unison insert’s enable button is switched off
• Apollo Solo USB’s top panel preamp gain level indicator color reverts to green
Note: The above functions can be re-enabled after adequate UAD resources are
made available.
