Working with AudioSuite Plug-Ins
AudioSuite plug-ins differ from TDM and RTAS
plug-ins in that they are used to process and
modify audio files on disk rather than non-
destructively in real time. Depending on how
you configure a non-real-time AudioSuite plug-
in, it will either alter the original source audio
file or create an entirely new audio source file.
The AudioSuite Menu
AudioSuite plug-ins are accessed through the
AudioSuite menu.
Plug-ins can be organized by category, manufac-
turer, and favorites in the menu. (Pro Tools 6.4
and higher).
