USING USM SOLO WITH UBM STUDIO
UBM Studio was designed to be easy to use. Follow these steps to get started:
1. Connect the PC to a UBM Solo with the included USB cable.
2. Connect an instrument or microphone to the input jack on the UBM Solo and set GAIN to
mid-position.
3. Launch the UBM Studio application and turn on the power to the UBM Solo. Note: If UBM Studio is
started without a UBM Solo connected, the plug-in windows will be blank. This is normal.
4. The first plug-in window will become active and you should see the activity on the level meter.
5. Adjust the MASTER output levels mid-position. You should now hear your instrument or mic through
the UBM Solo.
Loading and playing audio files
Audio files can be loaded into UBM Studio and played back along with the amplifier input for
play-along or Karaoke functions.
Click the LOAD button or drag 'n drop an audio file into the playlist window. Then you can use
transport controls to play back the audio file. The volume fader can be used to adjust the balance
between audio input and the audio file being played back.
Using the Effects window
UBM Studio has its audio input routed through a “channel strip” similar to a mixing console. UBM
Studio supports only 1 channel strip for UBM Solo because it only has 1 audio input. With the channel
strip you can add/change/edit sound effects to the input signal, save and recall presets, and
launch windows to edit the VST plug-ins.
The instrument select button pre-configures the channel strip and plug-ins for the best settings for
that type of input. Choose Guitar, Bass, or Microphone, depending on what is plugged into the UBM
Solo.
If you edit a preset to your liking, it can be saved using the SAVE button into 1 of 64 preset locations
so it can be instantly reloaded next time.
Preset and Parameter knobs
The UBM Solo has 2 knobs on the top panel that allow “remote control” of UBM Studio. This is useful to
change the settings without having to use a mouse. Use these controls to change the settings in the
UBM Studio plug-in window. Pressing the Parameter knob or the Preset knob will advance the control
to the next parameter in the plug-in window. Turning the Preset knob will change effects presets.
