Critical Install Steps for UAD 9 Sierra & DP Compatible

Post by waxman »

Uninstall previous UAD version and remove prefs before installing UAD 9

I recommend doing the following steps:

First I would do an uninstall.

Take special care to remove the preference files as this will help remove conflicts from previous installations:

Secondly, I would do a hardware reset. This will reset any settings you have made on your interface (don't worry it won't delete any console saves):

I also recommend doing a reset of SMC and PRAM. This will reset internal mac functions that could be causing conflicts:

Is this version now Sierra compatible? I looked on the site but couldn't find anything in the release notes that confirms this. Did I miss something? :)

Yeah but it's only compatible with TBolt Apollo's and Sierra.
