UAD's "Sonar Compatibiity Mode"--should it be selected?

Just noticed that the "Sonar Compatibiity Mode" box is not checked on my UAD2 card configuration.  Should it be?  I am using Sonar X2 64bit.  Never had an issue, but it surprised me.

    No, it's a holdover from the UAD 1 cards and a much older version of SONAR.  I always had better results with it off even back in the day when it was supposed to be useful.  I don't recall what it was technically supposed to do.

    They call 'em fingers, but I've never seen 'em fing.

    I found that Sonar Compatibility Mode actually caused problems with some particular UAD plugins.  After unchecking it, these problems disappeared.
