Using Plug-ins
Inserting and Deleting Plug-ins
Plug-ins can be either; software instruments, which respond to MIDI note messages, or
audio effects, which do not respond to MIDI note messages.
• All plug-ins can be added via the plug-in menu of an Audio Object.
• Effect plug-ins can be inserted into the Insert slots of all Audio Objects.
• Software-based instruments can only be inserted into special Audio Objects, called
Audio Instruments. These Audio Instrument Objects have a special
Instrument slot,
directly above their Output slots.
