shown in the project track and can be edited. The parameter can be
automated using the fader.
Activate automation parameters by checking the "Auto" control box.
The parameter selection is saved for each plug-in so that the next time you use
the same plug-in in a different project, the same parameters are used. This
way you have the advantage that every frequently used parameter of the
corresponding instrument is available immediately after it has been opened.
Instrument panel and parameter dialog
The instruments editor (panel) is opened when an instrument is loaded and can
be opened again at any later time by right clicking the VSTi slot displaying the
instrument name. Alternatively, the VSTi editor can also be opened by right
clicking the record button on the track -> Instrument output -> VSTi editor.
The graphical interface opens by default. If the selected instrument (or plug-in)
does not have its own interface, the parameters dialog will open. This display
mode is limited to just a few control elements and can only be opened via the
menu of the instrument window. Use this mode if you find the panel of the
plug-in too unclear or if it takes up too much space on the screen. In this
dialog eight freely selectable parameters of the instrument are clearly and
numerically displayed. Bar controls can be used to adjust the parameter
values.
The parameter selection is saved for each plug-in so that the next time you use
the same plug-in in a different project, the same parameters are used. This
way you have the advantage that every frequently used parameter of the
corresponding instrument is available immediately after it has been opened.
Dialog menu
Further options can be found in the menu of the instrument window:
Bypass: Deactivates the instrument and mutes it. Note that some instruments
use up processing power if bypass is switched on but are still located in the
insert slot. In such cases, the instrument should be removed completely from
the insert if it is no longer required.
Monitoring: This option must be switched on if you wish to be able to hear the
instrument when it is being played or recorded. If you wish to always have
monitoring active when the track's record button is pressed, then please select
the "Tape monitoring" option in the system/global audio options ("Y", "Audio
setup" tab) dialog.
