Universal Audio UAD-2 Quad Omni PCIe DSP and Plug-In for DAWs

Simply add more cards for additional outboard FX or more mix channels as your needs grow. Pro power-users can now use up to four UAD-2 Quads for the most demanding applications with equivalent potency to 40 UAD-1 cards!

UAD-2 includes an all-new unified Meter and Control Panel for UAD-1 and UAD-2. The new Meter/Control Panel design offers improved status monitoring, easy Quick Plug-Buy and Software Update.

There's also improved rollover help and a new streamlined web shopping experience and completely re-designed UA website with integrated A/V Demos, tutorials, in-depth webzine articles, FAQ's and enhanced support so you can really get the most out of your UAD-2. You can use up to 4 UAD-1’s and 4 UAD-2’s in one system using the same software license.

The LiveTrack mode reduces latency on an active UAD-2 plug-in to the lowest possible amount. This feature is highly useful for monitoring processed audio when recording live performances. In LiveTrack Mode, UAD-2 signal data is transferred and processed “immediately” instead of being buffered, resulting in reduced latency. NOTE: When LiveTrack is active, host CPU loading increases. LiveTrack does not reduce the latency of your Audio Interface.

Each UAD-2 Quad Omni is powered by two Analog Devices 21369 SHARC floating-point DSPs. UAD-2 adds the real magic of analog to your in-the-box mixes using UAi - UA's unique modeling technology.
