AFAIK, the Uniwire VST plugin does not support multiple CPU's yet, and using more than one instance on a multi-CPU system causes serious problems in all DAW's I have (Sonar6 and 7, Tracktion2 and 3, Reaper). There was a "workaround" for Cubase (I think) that involved using on the "odd numbered" tracks to keep the multiple Uniwire VST's on the same core, but I do not have Cubase so I didn't try it (and this was quite a while ago).
There have been no updates to Uniwire since my experiences.
The most often asked for feature has been "multiple output support" from Uniwire VST. If it had this, the multi-CPU issue would not be as important.

UniWire 1.2 does. It is only available to Direct Install beta testers at the moment, although you can sign up for that at: www.museresearch.com/beta.php
From the release notes:
Included in the Receptor Tools 1.2 package, which is required for Receptor v1.7, is UniWire 1.2. Aside from fixing several bugs and improving overall compatibility, UniWire 1.2's most obvious new capability is that it works with multicore processors. You no longer have to disable multi-core support in your host application in order to use UniWire.
