UAD Powered Plug-Ins Manual - 89 - Chapter 9: UAD Delay Compensation
Important: The following sections about delay compensation apply only
when using hosts that do NOT implement full plug-in delay compensation!
Depending on the host application implementation, the delay compensation
feature may not provide automatic compensation when UAD Powered Plug-
Ins are inserted on sends, groups, or buses. In this situation, the solution is to
use the UAD Delay Compensator plug-in (“UAD Delay Compensator” on
page 90).
UAD Delay Compensator should not be used in situations where the host ap-
plication provides delay compensation automatically, such as on track in-
serts. Some host applications provide fully automatic delay compensation
throughout the entire signal path. UAD DelayComp is not needed at all in
such hosts (see Table 6).
These explanations of delay compensation apply primarily to playback only.
For more information about using UAD Powered Plug-Ins for live performance
and during recording, see “Live Processing” on page 99.
For information about using UAD Powered Plug-Ins on audio tracks while si-
multaneously running MIDI tracks, see “Live Processing” on page 99.
