Neve 33609SE
Overview The UAD Neve 33609SE is derived from the UAD Neve 33609. Its algorithm
has been revised in order to provide sonic characteristics very similar to the
33609 but with significantly less DSP usage. It is provided to allow 33609-
like sound when DSP resources are limited. Nobody with “golden ears” will
claim it sounds exactly like the 33609, but it still sounds great and is very us-
able in most situations.
The 33609SE interface can be differentiated from the 33609 by color and
the module name. The 33609SE background is black instead of the 33609’s
blue/grey, and the module name below the link switch includes “SE”.

Controls
The Neve 33609SE controls are exactly the same as the Neve 33609. Please
refer to the Neve 33609 section for Neve 33609SE control descriptions (see
“Neve 33609 Controls” on page 157).
Neve 33609 Latency
The Neve 33609 (but not the 33609SE) uses an internal upsampling tech-
nique to facilitate its amazing sonic quality. This upsampling results in a
slightly larger latency than other UAD plug-ins. You may enter a value in the
“Samples” parameter in DelayComp or TrackAdv to compensate. See “Com-
pensating Upsampled Plug-Ins” on page 95 for more information.
The Neve 33609SE does not require additional latency compensation be-
cause it is not upsampled.
Note: Compensating for Neve 33609 is not required if the host application
supports full plug-in delay compensation throughout the signal path, or when
it is used only on the outputs. See “Host PDC Implementation” on page 88.
