UAD-1 Software Version 3.0 ReleasedSupport multiple cards on Windows computers January 16, 2003
Mackie in partnership with Universal Audio, has released UAD-1 software version 3.0 for both Macintosh and Windows platforms. Version 3.0, in addition to supporting the use of up to four UAD-1 cards in a single PC (Windows only), supports the new EQ plug-in "Cambridge". Multi-card support for the Macintosh will be available in Q2 2003.
"We're really excited about 3.0," said Universal Audio co-founder Bill Putnam. "The ability to use multiple cards in a single machine has been the number one request from our users for some time, which is actually quite flattering. The amount of processing power you can now get into your PC is just awesome!"
The Mackie UAD-1 was developed by Universal Audio and is marketed and distributed by Mackie Designs Inc. The Mackie UAD-1 package includes a proprietary high-performance DSP card, which powers a collection of audio processors known as Powered Plug-ins. The growing family of Powered Plug-ins currently includes: the 1176LN and Teletronix LA-2A vintage compressors, the Pultec EQ, RealVerb Pro, the Nigel Guitar Processor, and the CS-1 Channel Strip. The CS-1 is comprised of plug-ins developed specifically for the UAD-1, including EQ, compression, delay modulation, and reflection engine modules. Nigel is also a suite of plug-ins, including the Pre-flex amp and speaker cabinet modeler, echo, delay modulation, tremelo, modulation filter, compressor/gate and phasor. As with the CS-1, these components can be used together or separately.
Version 3.0 software is a free download for registered UAD-1 owners available via the Universal Audio website at: www.uaudio.com/ppi/home.html or the Mackie website at: www.mackie.com/record/uad1/index.html.
