dow.

serts View.

lect the plug-in that you want to use.
Plug-Ins by Category and Plug-In Favorites
Pro Tools 6.4 and higher can organize plug-ins
by process category (such as EQ, Dynamics, De-
lay, and others), with individual plug-ins listed
in the category sub-menus. When this option is
selected, you can also designate frequently used
plug-ins as Plug-In Favorites to simplify naviga-
tion and plug-in assignment. The Plug-Ins by
Category option is available in the Pro Tools
Display Preferences. See the Pro Tools Reference
Guide for more information on plug-in Category
and Favorites features.
To remove an insert from a track:
■ Click the Insert Selector and select No Insert.
Inserting Plug-Ins During Playback
On Pro Tools|HD (Pro Tools 6.x only) and
Pro Tools LE systems, plug-ins can be inserted or
removed during playback, with the following re-
strictions:
◆ Plug-ins cannot be inserted or removed dur-
ing recording (Pro Tools 6.x only).
◆ A plug-in cannot be dragged to a different in-
sert location during playback or recording. Stop
playback to do this.
◆ Plug-ins that change a track's format (a mono-
to-stereo plug-in, for example) cannot be in-
serted or removed during playback. Stop play-
back to do this.
◆ Plug-ins that contain automation cannot be
removed during playback. Stop playback to do
this.
