Routing Plug-Ins
After a plug-in has been assigned to a rack slot, you can specify
its routing. Plug-In routing determines whether the plug-in is
used as a channel insert or as a bus processor.
Inserting Plug-Ins on Channels
Each S3L system input channel, output bus, and Matrix mixer
provides two slots for plug-in inserts. Signal from the channel is
routed to the insert and returned to the same channel. You can as-
sign plug-ins to specific channel insert points from the Plug-Ins
screen or from the Input screen.
To insert a plug-in on a channel from the Inputs or Outputs page:
1 Go to the Inputs or Outputs page.
2 Click the first available Inserts selector.
3 Choose an available plug-in from the rack sub-menus. All cur-
rently available plug-ins of a compatible mono/stereo format
are listed in the sub-menus. Plug-Ins that are unavailable are
listed in italics. Plug-Ins that are already assigned as channel
inserts are shown with their insert assignment.
4 The plug-in appears in the Inserts list for that channel.
5 To open the window for an inserted plug-in, click its name in
the channel Inserts list.
To insert a plug-in on a channel from the Plug-Ins page:
1 Make sure the plug-in is already assigned to a rack slot. (See
“Assigning Plug-Ins to Rack Slots” on page 170.)
2 Click the Input (source) selector in the rack slot and choose a
channel from its Inserts sub-menus.
The rack slot automatically identifies and connects to the first
available insert slot on the selected channel. The Channel Insert
selector shows the current insert position. In the figure below,
