UAD Powered Plug-Ins Manual - 83 - Chapter 6: UAD Meter & Control Panel
Used by other
devices
This number displays the percentage of FireWire bus bandwidth that is used
by all the FireWire devices connected to the bus EXCEPT for UAD-2 Satellite,
such as hard drives and audio interfaces. The number is used to help deter-
mine an optimum value for the
UAD Bandwidth Allocation parameter.
FireWire Gauge
The FireWire Gauge ( Figure 14 ) reflects the FireWire bus bandwidth cur-
rently used by UAD-2 Satellite and all other FireWire peripheral devices (e.g.,
audio interfaces and hard drives). The gauge graphically displays the
UAD
Bandwidth Allocation , the bandwidth used by active UAD-2 Satellite plug-ins,
and bandwidth used by all other devices on the bus. The FireWire Gauge in
the FireWire control panel is also displayed in the UAD Meter when UAD-2
Satellite is connected (see
Figure 7 on page 61 ).
The total range of the gauge is 100%, reflecting the total available bandwidth
of the FireWire bus. The
UAD Bandwidth Allocation is displayed in green,
UAD usage is dynamically displayed in blue, and usage by all other devices
is displayed in orange. The sum of UAD and peripheral usage is also dis-
played as a percentage of the total available bandwidth.
Important: FireWire bandwidth is unrelated to UAD DSP loads. See
“FireWire Bandwidth vs. UAD DSP” on page 143 for details.
