D-Show Guide144
Active and Inactive Plug-Ins
To toggle the active/inactive state of a plug-in:
■ Click the appropriate rack slot Power switch. When active,
the Power switch is lit green. When a plug-in is unavailable
(and inactive), the Power switch is lit yellow.
Routing Plug-Ins
After a plug-in has been assigned to a rack slot, you can specify
its routing. Plug-In routing determines whether the plug-in is
used as a channel insert or as a bus processor.
Using Plug-Ins as Channel Inserts
Each D-Show channel provides four slots for channel inserts
(as well as one hardware insert slot). Signal from the channel
is routed to the insert and returned to the same channel.
You can assign plug-ins to specific channel insert points from
the Plug-Ins screen or from the Input screen.
To insert a plug-in on a channel from the Inputs or Outputs page:
1 Go to the Input or Output screen.
2 Click the first available Channel Insert selector and choose
an available plug-in from the rack sub-menus. All currently
available plug-ins of a compatible mono/stereo format are
listed in the sub-menus. Plug-Ins that are unavailable are
listed in italics. Plug-Ins that are already assigned as channel
inserts are shown with their insert assignment.
3 The selected plug-in appears in the Inserts list for that chan-
nel.
4 To open the window for an inserted plug-in, click its name
in the channel Inserts list.
To insert a plug-in on a channel from the Plug-Ins page:
1 Make sure the plug-in is already assigned to a rack slot. (For
more information, see “Assigning and Routing Plug-Ins” on
page 143.)
2 Click the Input (source) selector in the rack slot and choose
a channel from its Inserts sub-menu.
The rack slot automatically identifies and connects to the first
available insert slot (1–4) on the selected channel. The Chan-
nel Insert selector shows the current insert position.
If no insert slots are available on the channel, the selector dis-
plays a question mark.
