Effects Parameters
Each effect in an effects patch point has its own independent set of parameter
values. For example, you can apply a short reverb in one track and a long reverb in
another track. The dialog boxes for real-time effects contain the same parameters
as the offline effects, though there are a few differences:
• You can adjust the parameters while playback is in progress, so there is no
need for an Audition button.
• For Audio effects, because mixing is handled through the Track view or
Console view, there is no Mixing tab.
• You do not need to click OK for the effect to be applied.
Refer to the sections “MIDI Effects (MIDI Plug-ins)” on page 325 and “Audio
Effects (Audio Plug-ins)” on page 386 for descriptions of the effects and their
parameters.
How to Use Real-Time Effects
It is very easy to use the real-time effects in the Track view and Console view.
Here’s what to do:
When you place an effect in the patch point, an abbreviated name is used to
describe the effect. Sometimes the limited space makes it impossible to identify the
effect. If this occurs, simply rest the cursor over the effect for a second or two, and
a tooltip will pop up to display the full name of the effect.
To do this… Do this…

the effect to, and select an effect from the popup menu.

the Console view, drag an effect up or down in the effects bin.
