UAD Powered Plug-Ins Manual - 16 - Chapter 1: Introduction
The UAD System
The UAD Powered Plug-Ins package is a hardware-plus-software system that
consists of one or more UAD DSP cards combined with the Powered Plug-Ins
software. Multiple UAD package types are available in the product line to ac-
commodate your particular hardware system, processing needs, and budget.
The difference between each package are the UAD card type and the selec-
tion of plug-ins that are bundled with the card. Each bundle has either a set
of included plug-ins, or a voucher system that you use to specify the particular
plug-ins you want at our online store.
For a detailed overview about the UAD Powered Plug-Ins system and how it
operates, see Chapter 3, “UAD System Overview.”
