preset.
To load a preset, select Load Preset and select a preset.
NOTE
You can also apply EQ together with insert and channel strip settings from track

Channel Strips
The Channel Strip rack is only available for audio-related channels. It allows you to
load built-in processing modules for separate channels.
Channel Strip Modules
The channel strips allow you to apply modules directly to specific channels. You can
change the position of specific modules in the signal flow via drag and drop.
Gate (Cubase Elements only)
Allows you to silence audio signals below a set threshold level. As soon as the
signal level exceeds the set threshold, the gate opens to let the signal through.
Compressor
Allows you to create smooth compression effects. Drag the compressor up or
down to change its position in the signal flow.
