Grouping Tracks
The UAD DelayComp plug-in is generally used on track inserts. However,
Requiring
when many tracks require delay compensation, instead of placing individual
DelayComp
Delay Compensator plug-ins on each track you may find it easier to send the
output of each unprocessed tracks to a bus or group. Then simply put one
UAD-1 Delay Compensator on that bus or group.

tervention when UAD Powered Plug-Ins are used in hosts that support full plug-
in delay compensation. See
Insert
Situation: You have a song with bass, drums, and guitar. You want a room
simulator on the guitar so you put an RS-1 on an insert of the guitar track. Re-
sult: All tracks are perfectly aligned.
Solution: None needed. Delay compensation on track inserts is handled au-
tomatically by most host applications.
Situation: You have a song with bass, drums, guitar, and 2 vocal tracks. You
Send
want a fantastic reverb on the vocals so you send both vocal tracks to the UAD
RealVerb Pro via an effect send. Result: The RealVerb Pro effect return plays
late in relation to the dry tracks.
Solution: Send the output of all the tracks (including the dry vocal tracks but
NOT the RealVerb Pro return) to a different send/group/bus and put one
UAD DelayComp with a Plugs value of 1 on this send/group/bus that con-
tains the dry tracks. Keep the Sample value at zero.
Situation: You have a song with bass, drums, guitar, and 2 vocal tracks. You
Group/Bus
want a smoother vocal blend so you put both vocal tracks on a group/bus for
compression with the infamous LA2A. Result: The vocal tracks play late in re-
lation to the instrument tracks.
Solution: Send the output of the unprocessed instrument tracks (but not the vo-
cal tracks or LA2A return) to a different group/bus and put one DelayComp
with a Plugs value of 1 on this group/bus that contains the unprocessed
tracks. Keep the Sample value at zero.
