I finally picked up a UAD-1
I am using it with FXspansion's 4.2 beta VST adapter
Using it under wavelab using the wrapper, no problem works great
Using it in sound forge i get some weird problems.
Mainly when I load a second plug, it will say something like "this plugin could not load, expected buffer size is 512 buffer is 2408"
or some such. I have changed the buffer size in sound forge, on the card, and also on the vst adapter, no avail
In Vegas 3 the same thing happens.
In Vegas 4 beta, it seems ok except that many things like soloing the UAD reverb will cause the whole system to crash...prolly just a beta issue
anyhow there was a lot of wisdom floating around about configuring these cards long ago, but the old posts at the nuendo hardware forum are long since deleted, so I dont know where to turn
my system is
ASUS P4T-e
2 X RME HDSP 9652
neatgear or whatever network card you recomended a million years ago and matrox g550
running on XP
here is part of my ranting more on the subject

Well....c'mon..remember that the RME cards actually are able to handle IRQ sharing..I usually recommend slots 1 and 5 for that...yes, slot one does share with the AGP but it's ok..it's not going to hurt your performance...video is not bandwidth happy when set to 16bit depth...especially the Matrox cards when you turn off bus mastering..

Well, I can gaurantee any Asus board will share slot 1 and 5...when you see they are shared but with no explanation it means they are shared by each other!
I personally don't think it will cause you any grief...once you have those cards installed....put the other cards in one at a time and see if you can get them on their own IRQ.
The Matrox cards aren't 16 bit but can be by putting the bit depth setting in the display properties to 16bit!

Well, one of the key issues here is Direct X vs VST...the UAD card I believe is a more VST platform friendly device and you are using an emulator on it...I could be wrong though.
In the System Properties under Advanced hit the Performance Settings button...on the advanced tab make sure that the Memory usage is set to Programs and not System Cache...that's the only thing to watch out for...but I think you already have that done otherwise you wouldn't be able to install it in the first place.
You might want to try turning the UAD Perfromance meter off to see if that helps in any way
