Add Delay Compensation

tracks to keep them time-aligned.

Simply insert an E-Delay Compensator plug-in into the same insert location you
used for E-MU PowerFX on any other audio tracks. That’s it.

Preferences

The Preferences menu allows you to:
• Toggle the Tooltips On or Off
• Extra Buffers - Check this box if excessive stuttering occurs when

using E-MU PowerFX in your VST Host application. This box
should be checked when using Fruity Loops.

• Render Mode - Induces realtime rendering in applications

which do not support realtime rendering.
