Reaper and UAD cards

I found a UAD-1e at sweetwater. Did you have a look there? maybe they're still on stock ...

I just got my first UAD-1e card last week from Sweetwater. So far, everything works just fine.

I dont know too much about the UAD-2 cards, but with the UAD-1s the difference in price depends on the plug-ins and vouchers. I guess for UAD-2 theres no difference. The cards themsleves do all they same. and: yes, the plug-ins show up in the usual Reaper vst list.

I picked up one of the UAD-1e cards that are $99 now.. and I must say, using it on a quad core in vista.. had no problems whatsoever, with REAPER's default settings.. used a bunch of plugs, loaded the card up to 90%, even used with reafir's creating more latency to be compensated.. everything really went smoothly (though not quite as smooth as the UAD-2).. strange! :)
