Universal Audio has just announced the availability of a new version of UAD Powered Plug-Ins Software.
UAD Software Version 5.4.1 provides functional and sonic improvements to the FATSO Jr./Sr. Powered Plug-In, as well as a new "Clear CPU Affinity" setting for Windows users, which reduces CPU spiking on most multi-processor systems.
This update is recommended to all UAD owners — and especially FATSO Jr./Sr. plug-in users and Windows users on multi-processor systems.
Note that FATSO Jr./Sr. v5.4.1 session and preset settings are not backwards compatible with v5.4.0.
