7 Effects

MultitrackStudio features a large number of built-in high-quality effects. In addition VST and DX plugins can

be used.

Effects are reached via Effect Slots. Effects can be selected by

clicking the slot's down arrow (or by right-clicking the slot). The

Effect Selector contains all native MultitrackStudio effects, VST

and DX plugins, Convolutor impulse responses and effect

presets. A search text can be typed to filter the list. VST and DX list items

have invisible tags so you can use 'vst' or 'dx' search terms to hide the

other type of plugin. When an effect's user interface is visible you can
press the F3 key to pop up the selector list. It remembers the search text,

so you can try the next effect which matches the search text easily.

Leftclicking the slot's button will show the effect's user interface. All effects
have a Bypass button. If the effect is not actually active (it's either

bypassed or its controls are in neutral position) the text in the effect slot's

display appears dimmed. Inactive effects do not use any processing

power.

Effects can be moved using drag-and-drop, keeping the Ctrl key down

while doing this will copy the effect instead of move it. Adding or removing

effects can be done while the transport is running.

The following effects are available:

(*): Pro Plus edition only

Presets

Presets can be loaded or created using the Presets button which appears on the effect's user interface.

Controlling the Transport

You can use either the keyboard or the mouse to control the transport while an effect's user interface is on

screen. In particular the Alt+Left Arrow key combination will be useful when setting up effects. Some VST

or DX plugins can gain "keyboard focus", which makes it impossible to control the transport using the

keyboard. You can click the righthand part (the "MultitrackStudio part") of the plugin window to restore

keyboard focus.

7.1 Automated Fader

The Automated Fader is a volume control that can be programmed to change over time. It can be used to

attenuate, amplify or mute part of a Track. It can also be used to turn off Reverb or Echo effects if used in

an Effect Return section or in a Parallel Effect.
