Wondering if anyone out there has had experience using a Mackie Control w the UAD-1 PCI dsp card? I'm waiting for a Control, and was strongly considering purchasing the UAD to take the pressure of my B&W G3 400. However I noticed at the Mackie/UAD downloads page there is a list of "issues", including the fairly ambiguous note that the UAD does not work "correctly" with the Mackie Control in both MAS and VST. Tried e-mailing Mackie but no response yet. Anyone have any details on exactly what does not work "correctly"? Need to know how bad this is before I invest in the UAD... (SetUp: B&W G3 400, 700+ megs RAM, DP 3.x in OS 9, MOTU 828, soon a Mackie Control) TIA |

just checkin back -- thanks for the responses so far
anyone else w info on these issues, please chime in if you're so inclined, and TIA -- in the meantime: gramps: whether or not it was the answer i was looking for, it's a beautiful answer - lost of good info, thanks! I guess I'm starting from ground zero here -- so just to backtrack, it's true then that the Mackie cannot control any UAD parameters? Sounds like this is the case. Also sounds like if I'm willing to simply not use the Mackie when editing the UAD plugs it shouldn't affect the basic functionality of either (beyond that little problem of them not being able to communicate whatsoever of course...) [fyi - I actually got a quick response from a tech named Sean at Mackie, but he didn't have any details to offer (so far) other than to say the comm problem was imbedded in MAS and it was a MOTU fix ultimately.] azusa: sounds like you're diggin the card, which is great. The latency problem mentioned by you and gramps is a bitch, but I can deal with it if the net result is more CPU cycles for my audio. However the note about AGP video only is very disturbing -- I have a B&W G3 so it's PCI video only baby. Any other UAD users out there (or anyone from UA on this forum) who can confirm as well that the UAD does not play with PCI video cards? I have my original Rage 128 in storage, my current card is the Radeon 7000 PCI. To be honest the 7000 didn't seem to do much, and I can't afford to take advantage of the dual monitor outputs yet, so any info on the Rage OR the Radeon vis the UAD would be welcomed... Guess I'll check the UA site again too. Once again, thanks to all -- this is a great forum. mt |
