Logic Pro

The UAD Plug-In Window

A typical UAD Powered Plug-In window is shown in Figure 16. The graphical

user interface (GUI) typically contains several control parameters, for modify-

ing the behavior of the plug-in, and display elements such as meters, for visual

feedback. The UAD Toolbar is also displayed.
