Applying transitions and special effects
Virtual Studio Technology (VST) effects let you add interesting qualities to audio clips. If you own third-party VST
effects, you can apply and edit them just like standard audio and video effects. Premiere Elements detects any
compatible VST plug-ins that you have installed and adds them to the Effects panel.
Some third-party VST effects provide unique control interfaces. The control layout and processed audio are the
responsibilities of the plug-in developer. Premiere Elements simply presents the effect controls and results.
To use third-party effects, copy the effect plug-in into the Premiere Elements/Plug-ins/[location] folder, and restart
the program.
