Hi Dan, I enjoyed the LA3A screencast. I do have a question though. Are you sure that the "plugin delay compensation" parameter is enabled in the LA3A's VST Properties page, in SONAR? I have had issues in the past where SONAR did not automatically enable it by default. I wondered why I had delay/phasing issues when using some UAD-1 plugins, until I discovered that the PDC parameter was not enabled. I have had to manually enable PDC for some UAD-1 plugins, when using SONAR, in the past. SONAR has full auto PDC and putting the LA3A on a bus should not cause any PDC issues. Also, the issue with plugin defaults being out of whack when first opening some UAD-1 plugins (LA-2A had this issue as well), I believe this has been fixed in SONAR 7.01. BTW, the LA3A defaults properly (Gain @ "5" & Peak Reduction @ "4"), in REAPER 2.007. Doing parallel/bus compression is fully delay compensated, as well. A nice vocal dual compression trick is to use the LA2A followed by the LA3A (in limit mode). ;) Cheers, Billy Buck

Thanks for the awesome comment. I went in and individually enabled the delay compensation. After restarting Sonar the problem was fixed. I did encounter another problem though when attempting to export though. I would get a strange clipping noise on the exported file that was not there when playing back in Sonar. Turns out that there is a Sonar Compatability option in the UAD properties, under the UAD-1 Meter application. When that is turned off the problem goes away. Strange. I will address both of these issues in a future screencast. Thanks again.

Yes, the new UAD-1 SONAR Compatibilty mode is meant to address a long standing "native cpu munching" issue, during playback, when using a lot (more than 5 or so) of UAD-1 plugins in SONAR, on tracks & buses. It totally solved the native cpu munching I would routinely get in SONAR, but it did have the side effect of introducing gapping/distortion in a mix render. This typically affects those of us with multi-cpu DAW setups. As a workaround you can disable the SONAR compatibility mode from the UAD-1 Performance Meter when exporting your project. The latest SONAR 7.01 update has fixed this. This is now a parameter you can set in SONAR's aud.ini that addresses this issue automatically when rendering so you can just keep the SONAR compatibility mode enabled now. Cheers

I see. That makes sense. I don't have any trouble with CPU munching on my dual core intel system. Thanks again for such helpful feedback. I finally ordered S7PE and will start a series on that as soon as I get it.
