Power Switch<br />

The Power Switch determines whether the plug-in is active.<br />

This is useful for comparing the processed settings to that<br />

of the original signal, or to bypass the plug-in to reduce<br />

the <strong>UAD</strong> DSP load.<br />

Click the rocker switch to change the Power state. Alternately,<br />

you can click the blue UA logo to toggle the Power<br />

state.<br />

Band Controls<br />

Each control set (L and R) has four EQ bands. Two bands are overlapping low<br />

frequency bands labeled L1 and L2, and two bands are overlapping high frequency<br />

bands labeled H1 and H2.<br />

Each of the four bands has a control for bandwidth, enable, frequency, and<br />

gain. All four of the EQ bands can be used in parametric or shelf mode. The<br />

controls are exactly the same for each band; only the available frequency values<br />

differ.<br />

Bandwidth Knob<br />

The Bandwidth (Q) knob defines the proportion of frequencies surrounding<br />

the band center frequency to be affected by the band gain control.<br />

The numbers represent the filter slope in dB per octave. The available selections<br />

are 4, 6, 9, 14, 20, and Shelf.<br />

When set to Shelf on the L1 and L2 bands, the band becomes a low shelving<br />

filter. When set to Shelf on the H1 and H2 bands, the band becomes a high<br />

shelving filter.<br />

Band Enable<br />

Button<br />

Each band can be individually engaged with the<br />

Enable button. All bands default to disabled.<br />

When a band is enabled, the button glows blue.<br />

To enable a band, click the Enable button or<br />

move the band Gain knob.<br />

You can use these buttons to compare the band<br />

settings to that of the original signal, or to bypass<br />

the individual band. <strong>UAD</strong> DSP usage is slightly<br />

decreased when a band is disabled.<br />
