The Plug-Ins panel
Controls Mode
This setting determines how UAD plug-in parameter knobs respond to adjustment. Three
control modes are offered: Circular, Relative Circular, and Linear. The behavior of each
mode is described below.
Linear (slider) – In Linear mode, the knob is adjusted by dragging horizontally or verti-
cally instead of by rotating. This behavior is similar to moving a physical fader.
Circular (jump) – In Circular mode, the software knobs behave similar to physical rotary
knobs. Values are changed by clicking on the knob then rotating in a circular direction.
When the edge of the knob is clicked, the parameter value jumps to the mouse position.
Relative Circular (grab) – Relative Circular mode operates similar to Circular mode, but
the knob value does not jump to the mouse position when clicked. Instead, the knob
value is modified relative to its original value.
In Relative Circular mode, click anywhere on the knob to make an adjustment originating
at the original value (it’s not necessary to click on the current knob position).
