Inserts
If you have enough processing capacity, you can use up to 4 Inserts per Audio Object.
An extra blank Insert is created, as soon as all of the currently displayed insert slots are
used, up to the maximum allowed.
The Insert pull-down menu displays all available Logic plug-ins, as well as all correctly
installed Audio Units plug-ins.
Note: Shift–double-clicking on a used (active) Insert slot will open the Plug-in window
as a non-float window. Clicking on the minimize button at the top left of the window
will place the Plug-in window on the Dock. It can be restored by clicking on the Dock
icon.
Channel Strip Settings Menu
If you click on the word Insert on any channel strip, the Channel Strip Settings menu
opens. This menu allows you to load and save the entire routing configuration of a
single channel strip, including all loaded plug-ins and settings.
The ability to save an entire routing configuration can be used in a number of ways,
such as:
• Setting up and storing complex multi-effect configurations—on any type of channel.
• Similarly, the configuration of a particular routing configuration for use with multi-
output software instruments.
• Copying a routing or effect configuration between Projects.
• The rapid creation of new Templates.
The Channel Strip menu offers the following items:
• Next/Previous Channel Strip Setting: Loads the next or previous Channel Strip
setting in the list.
• Copy/Paste Channel Strip Setting: Allows to you to copy and paste Channel Strip
settings between channels or projects.
• Save Channel Strip Setting as: Saves the Channel Strip setting, and allows you to
name it.
• Once you have created one or more Channel Strip settings, a list of settings will be
shown below the menu functions. The active Channel Strip setting is denoted by a
bullet.
