I am am in the market for some more high quality DSP and have decide to go native as opposed to UAD. Anyone have any strong opinions on UAD's merits.
R&D level are somewhat deeper than a lot of other small plug-in development shops.
Hi again, I have some engineering friends both with respectable production set ups but alas they do not own UAD cards. Maybe that tells me something..1)They did not hear the UAD either for the same reason I cannot or they did not like what they heard. I will ask in fact.
Good call, will check them out, thanks. Though my DAW is not internet enabled. Headphones on an EMU 0202 will have to do the trick on my online PC.
Thanks for the responses. I ordered a UAD2 Flexi on Friday and hope to get it soon. I was wanting to get the heads up on what's hot. Massive Passive was definitely on the list. Good to hear some positives on the other eq's as well. All input is greatly appreciated!Any opinions on the implementation of the SSL channel strip?
While this is more of a mastering forum, what is the latency penalty of the UAD series for "Through the DAW" tracking duties, etc? Just curious how much additional latency one should expect by running such DSP cards in a tracking environment...
Can't give an exact figure, but me and the artist are always aware when I've left a UA plug on the rough, lol. It's not workable as real-time.
