Audio Effects
Cubase comes with a number of included effect plug-ins that you can use to process audio,
group, instrument, and ReWire channels.
The effects and their parameters are described in the separate document Plug-in Reference.
Insert Effects and Send Effects
You can apply effects to audio channels by using insert effects or send effects.
Insert Effects
Insert effects are inserted in the signal chain of an audio channel. This way, the whole channel
signal passes through the effect.
You can add up to 4 different insert effects per channel.
Use insert effects for effects such as distortion, lters, or other effects that change the tonal or
dynamic characteristics of the sound.
To add and edit insert effects, you can use the following inserts sections:
● The Inserts rack in the MixConsole.
● The Inserts section in the Channel Settings window.
● The Inserts section in the Inspector.
Send Effects
Send effects can be added to FX channel tracks, and the audio data to be processed can be
routed to the effect. This way, the send effects remain outside the audio channel’s signal path.
Each audio channel has 4 sends, each of which can be freely routed to an effect (or to a chain of
effects).
Use send effects in the following cases:
●
To control the balance between the dry and wet sound individually for each channel.
●
To use the same effect for several different audio channels.
