Graphics

Enable Meters

Allows you to quickly turn on/off all meters

Show Tooltips

When enabled this allows informational notes to appear when the cursor/pointer is hovering on top of the features' controls

Frame Rate Limiter

Allows you to set the speed (frames per second) used to display and update meters.  You can increase the frame rate for smoother animation.  If you notice graphics performance problems in your host application, you can set the FPS value lower to limit the amount of CPU used fordrawing.

Opacity

Allows you to control the opacity or transparency of the interface. The slider will be disabled in host applications that do not support this feature.

Dim Controls When Bypassed

When this option is enabled, modules will be dimmed when bypassed. This feature helps to remind you when a module is bypassed, so that you don't make adjustments to a bypassed module unintentionally.

Solo/Bypass Indicators

Allows you to set the behavior of the Solo/bypass indicators. Options are Blinking or Solid.

Host

Delay Compensation

Using some of Nectar 's more CPU intensive settings and algorithms may result in a delay of the signal. This causes a delay when listening or mixing down. Fortunately, many applications provide "delay compensation" which is a means for Nectar to tell the application it has delayed the signal, and the host application should automatically "undo" the delay on the track. If your host application supports delay compensation, enable this option.If your application doesn't support Nectar 's delay compensation feature, or skips/stutters with this option turned on, you can manually correct the delay offset in the host application (i.e. manually edit out the short delay of silence).

See Delay Compensation documentation for more info.

View Buffers

This launches the View Buffers dialog, which lets you inspect the buffer sizes which your host application is using.

See Buffer Sizes documentation for more info.

Host Sync

This launches the Host Sync Viewer window which displays information about your current session/host application including Tempo, Transport State, Time signature, etc.

Low Latency RTAS/AAX Processing

This option only appears in the RTAS/AAS versions of Nectar and by default will be disabled. When selected this option will help reduce latency in Pro Tools, but will cause higher CPU usage.

Other

History depth

Lets you set how many levels or steps are remembered in the History dialog to control the size of the history log file.

Keyboard Support

Keyboard support must be set to full for all Keyboard shortcuts to be available. Available options include Full (full keyboard support), Minimal (only TAB, arrow keys, and ENTER), or None (Keyboard shortcuts turned off).
