Status Column
The Status column reflects the current state of each UAD plug-in. After the authorization
file is loaded, the status will show one of the following:
Authorized for devices
When the plug-in is fully licensed and authorized to run on all devices in the system,
“Authorized for all devices” is displayed here in white text.
When a plug-in is licensed but not all devices in a multi-device system are authorized
with the license, the Status column indicates which of the devices is authorized (e.g.,
“Authorized for device 1 only”).
Start Demo
The demo period has not been started for the plug-in. Click the “START DEMO” button
to begin the 14-day trial period. See
“Demo Mode” on page 145
for detailed informa-
tion.
Important:
The 14-day demo period for an individual UAD plug-in can only be
activated once, and cannot be stopped or restarted during this period. We recom-
mend you do not activate demo mode until you have the time to thoroughly check
out the plug-in’s sound and functionality.
Demo Active (days remaining)
If the 14-day trial period has been activated but is not yet expired, the number of days
remaining is displayed here in green text.
Demo Expired
If the 14-day trial period has ended, “Demo expired” is displayed here in red text.

Clicking the Help button (“?”) opens a link to the plug-in product page at the UA online
store, which contains information about the plug-in.
Buy Column
Clicking the Buy button (“$”) adds the plug-in to your shopping card at the UA online
