The <strong>UAD</strong> Software<br />

The <strong>UAD</strong> <strong>Powered</strong> <strong>Plug</strong>-<strong>Ins</strong> software consists of the <strong>UAD</strong> installer, the <strong>UAD</strong><br />

plug-ins, the <strong>UAD</strong> Meter & Control Panel application, the <strong>UAD</strong> card drivers,<br />

and the user documentation.<br />

<strong>Powered</strong><br />

<strong>Plug</strong>-<strong>Ins</strong><br />

The <strong>UAD</strong> <strong>Powered</strong> <strong>Plug</strong>-<strong>Ins</strong> software installer contains all the<br />

<strong>UAD</strong> software components (plug-ins, drivers, and documentation)<br />

and copies them to disk during installation. There is<br />

one <strong>UAD</strong> software installer for each OS platform (Windows<br />

and Macintosh). The <strong>UAD</strong> software installer is identical for all<br />

<strong>UAD</strong> hardware variations.<br />

<strong>Powered</strong> <strong>Plug</strong>-ins are the VST, RTAS, and Audio Units<br />

plug-in files that are loaded within the host application. The<br />

plug-ins are where the graphical user interface (GUI) is seen<br />

(Figure 17 on page 75) and where the various control parameters<br />

can be manipulated to achieve the desired result.<br />

The <strong>UAD</strong> software installer always installs the complete suite of all available<br />

<strong>Powered</strong> <strong>Plug</strong>-<strong>Ins</strong>. All of the installed <strong>UAD</strong> plug-ins may not be licensed however.<br />

The included licenses depends on the retail package bundle (see “Bundled<br />

<strong>Plug</strong>-<strong>Ins</strong>” on page 43).<br />

Optional<br />

<strong>Plug</strong>-<strong>Ins</strong><br />

Most <strong>UAD</strong> plug-ins require optional licenses to run without restrictions. Optional<br />

plug-in licenses are obtained at my.uaudio.com, the Universal Audio<br />

online store. Licenses can be purchased separately, or they can be purchased<br />

with “vouchers” that are bundled in most retail packages.<br />

Demo Mode<br />

<strong>UAD</strong> plug-ins that are unlicensed can be run in Demo Mode in a 14-day trial<br />

period without any functional restrictions. See page 46 for details.<br />

Vouchers and Licenses<br />

Your account at the my.uaudio.com online store is where bundled <strong>Powered</strong><br />

<strong>Plug</strong>-In vouchers are redeemed and where additional licenses can be purchased.<br />

See Chapter 4, “My.uaudio.com” for details.<br />

Note: When you purchase an optional license, you don’t download that individual<br />

plug-in. <strong>Ins</strong>tead, you download a newer authorization, which enables<br />

the plug-in file that is already installed.<br />
