Hold
The meter Hold Time switch determines how much time will pass before the
peak values for the main meter and the gain reduction meter are reset. It af-
fects both the peak LED’s and the peak text display.
Values of 3 seconds, 10 seconds, or Infinite (indicated by the lazy-8 symbol)
can be selected.
Clear
The meter Peak Clear switch clears the meter peak value display. It affects
both the peak LED’s and the peak text display.
Precision Limiter Latency
The Precision Limiter has a 1.5ms look-ahead window to ensure clipping does
not occur. This look-ahead function results in a slightly larger latency than
other UAD plug-ins. See
“Compensating Upsampled Plug-Ins” on page 108
for
more information.
Note:
Compensating for Precision Limiter is not required if the host applica-
tion supports full plug-in delay compensation throughout the signal path, or
when it is used only on the outputs. See
“Host PDC Implementation” on
page 101
.
