Plugin Instances

With a plugin instance selected, you have a number of different options at your disposal in the detail pane at the bottom of the window.

Density Control

Copy/Paste Plugin State​

You can use the "Copy" and "Paste" buttons to copy the state of that instance to any other instance of the same type.

Reported Latency​

Plugins report the amount of latency that they add to the chain. This value is updated when the chain starts and is used for latency compensation.

Live Cue​

If you make changes to a plugin, the plugin will be saved into the live cue, either automatically if auto-update is on, or when you click "update" if not. This indicator shows you the currently live cue for the plugin.

Bus Config​

You can use this section to select the plugin's audio bus configuration between the different options made available by the plugin. For example, this might allow you to change between e.g. Stereo, Stereo with sidechain, or Surround modes.

note

If there are no bus configurations shown, you may need to re-scan your plugins: you will be prompted to do this in the Library Tab if this is the case.

The sidechain patch selector allows you to select the source for the sidechain input to the plugin, if supported by the plugin:

Sidechain Patch Selector

Smite​

If a plugin is misbehaving, or you just decide that you wish to terminate its continued existence for the hell of it without removing it from the chain and losing its configuration, you can Smite a plugin. This will kill the plugin and unload it from the chain. Audio will be interrupted when this happens, but once smitten, the plugin will consume zero DSP resources.

Bypass​

If you want to temporarily route audio around a plugin so that it bypasses the plugin's processing, you should select Bypass. The plugin will still be loaded, but audio will temporarily skip that plugin in the chain. Audio is not interrupted when you bypass/un-bypass a plugin, but the plugin will continue to consume DSP resources.
