Plug-Ins

Pro Tools LE provides a collection of Real Time AudioSuite (RTAS) Plug-Ins that can be used
to process audio tracks. RTAS Plug-Ins are provided for common effects such as
equalization, compression, and delay.

Using Plug-Ins

Plug-ins are placed in a track insert. An insert, as its name implies, is used to insert
something in the audio path of a track before you hear it. For example, an insert can be
used to place a compressor in a track, and compress the audio before it reaches the audio
outputs.

You can easily add a plug-in by clicking a free insert on a track, and choosing a plug-in from
the pop-up menu. You can do this during playback or when playback is stopped. Note that
you can add several different instances of a plug-in in the same session, depending on your
CPU’s power. For example, the demo session uses the 4-band EQ Plug-In 3 times. Once you
add a plug-in to an insert, you can open it to view and adjust settings by clicking on the
plug-in name next to the insert.
