Channel Routing Window
In the Channel Routing window, the following options are available:
Parameter Description
Routing Presets Opens a window that contains presets for the Channel Routing
window, including channel labels.
Show all Channel
Meters
Enables displaying of all channel meters and statistics counters
regardless of the currently selected channel group. When this
option is deactivated, only meters belonging to the currently
selected channel group are shown.
Activating this option is useful when you are using dual-mono or
mid-side processing. This option allows you to see channel meters
for left and right, or mid and side channels together.
Input and Output
Routing
Allow you to route external plug-in inputs to internal plug-in
channels and vice versa, and to route internal plug-in channels to
external plug-in outputs. The plug-in has a pre-defined number of
internal channels, but the number of input and output channels can
vary depending on the host application’s track or bus on which the
plug-in is inserted.
Note that if the input routing selector is red, the selector refers to a
non-existent input channel. You can correct this by selecting an
existing channel. External side-chain inputs are denoted by
parenthesized labels, for example, “(IN3)”, “(IN4)”.
Mid/Side Pairs Allow you to assign internal channels to mid/side pairs for encoding
and decoding. The mid/side encoding is a wide-spread technique
that allows you to process the middle (center) and side (spatial)
information in stereo signals independently of each other, thus
offering a great deal of control over that signal’s stereophony.
Mid/side encoding works with paired channels only and thus
requires two channels to be assigned to the same mid/side pair. An
input signal is mid/side encoded before it is processed by the plug-
in, and decoded afterwards before it is routed to an output of the
plug-in.
