Power switch: Every effect device in the rack may be switched on or
off separately. This button allows you to directly compare the neutral,
unedited sound of the audio object with the effect setting you have
chosen.
Reset: Every effect has a reset button that restores the effect
device’s initial default. In this state, the effect is not calculated into
the sound, and the effect is not rendered.
Preset selection list: Each effect device features a
selection of presets that are selected via the drop-down
menu.
A/B: The A/B button compares two settings with each other. If you
have selected a preset for the effect and make manual changes to it
later, you can compare the original preset sound with the new settings
by using the A/B button.
Note: The graphics displayed are only samples and these differ according to
the effects devices.
Non real-time effects
A few audio effects are not calculated in real time; instead, after the settings
dialog is closed, copies of the audio material are added for calculating the
effect. This way, no additional calculations will be required during playback.
To change these effects, use the undo function.
The following effects don't work in real time: Freely-drawn filters, gater,
reverse, invert phase.
Using audio effects
Audio effects can be added at different positions in the arrangement, at object
level, in a complete track, or in the master (i.e. everything you can hear).
Audio object effects
Object effects do not affe
ct the entire arranger track, but rather individual
objects. The advantage to this is that effects which are only required at a
specific point in the arrangement only use up processing power at that
particular point.
