210 Chapter 9 Working With Audio Effects

Chaining and Reordering Realtime Effects

You can add more than one realtime effect to a track, bus, output, or audio file project.

Adding multiple effects to an effects chain is called chaining effects.

When you add multiple effects, the effects are applied in sequence, meaning that the

output of the first effect becomes the input for the next effect, and so on, for each

effect in the chain. The order in which effects are applied is important, because each

alters the input signal, which includes the output of previous effects in the chain. You

can reorder effects and hear the difference in the way they alter the sound.

To add multiple effects to an effects chain, do one of the following:

m Double-click the effect you want to add in the Effect list.

m Select the effect in the Effect list, then click the Add Effect button.

The effect appears in the Effect Parameters area below any previously added effects.

You can now set the parameters of the added effect.

Note: Adding more than a few effects to an effects chain can cause extreme changes

to the sound of a project. This may be what you want, but in some cases can produce

undesirable results. Listen to the project as you add effects to be sure you are satisfied

with the results.

Select the effect you

want to add, then click

the Add Effect button.

You can also drag the

effect to the Effect

Parameters area.
