Adding an Assignable Effects Chain |
|
From the Insert menu, choose Audio Assignable FX (or click the Insert FX button in the Mixer window) to create an effects chain to which you can route tracks in your project.
You can create up to 32 assignable effects chains in your project, and each chain can contain up to 32 effects.
To add effects quickly, you can drag plug-ins and plug-in packages from the Plug-In Manager window to the Mixer window. Drop on an existing assignable effects control to add plug-ins to the chain, or drop on an empty area of the Mixer to create a new assignable effects control.
When input monitoring is on during audio recording, audio effects chains that contain non-in-place plug-ins are displayed in yellow (
) to indicate that automatic plug-in delay compensation is being used. Chains that cannot be used for live monitoring are automatically bypassed and are displayed in red (
).
