Using PT HD native and UAD 2 Quad PCIE for MIXING ONLY
Hey guys,
I've been doing research about UAD and HD native. Apparently if you use UAD you get some latency issues. But what i wanted to clarify if these latency issues are a main problem for recording only? In general, i dont really care too much for latency, because when i record I just use light RTAS plug ins, and most of the time, i record RAW. My main purpose for wanting UAD is that i heard the plug-ins are stellar! plus, im mainly going to need them for mixing (in addition to my WAVES Plug-ins). If i use UAD plugs on a track that im mixing will it totally delay that SPECIFIC TRACK from the rest of the tracks? Or will it just cause latency with the whole session (for example: delayed response when pressing "Play"). Thanks guys!!! |

Re: Using PT HD native and UAD 2 Quad PCIE for MIXING ONLY
You might want to read up a bit about delay compensation and buffer size vs latency.
But to answer your question. If you are not tracking you will be fine. UAD plugs generally require a large buffer setting in ProTools to function properly. For me tracking with UAD at a low buffer setting is impossible (errors), though I have not tried them with their 'low latency "tracking" mode. With Native, tracking with as few Plugs as possible seems to work best, and use only those which have very little Delay (Apple click on the bottom of your fader to see the plug-in delay). UAD is great for final mixes, and if I have to overdub anything I just do a complete bypass on the UAD plugs

Does UA still bundle ATA Mellowmuse with their cards and would that help in this case with the delay comp that PT can't handle? I know that v5.2 of UA's software had it (ATA).
