UAD DSP Performance Meter Application
Overview The UAD Performance Meter is an application that displays the current CPU
and memory status of the UAD DSP hardware card in realtime. Its small float-
ing window enables you to monitor the resource load of the UAD, while si-
multaneously using your host application.
It also contains system information and configuration windows that enable
you to confirm the UAD is functioning properly, check the version of the soft-
ware drivers, and adjust the UAD buffers.
If multiple UAD cards are installed, the displayed CPU and memory usage is
the total for all installed cards. Usage statistics of individual cards can be
viewed using the System Information window (see page 40).
