Click the Details triangle to reveal the track's effects settings.

Drag the sliders for the Gate, Compressor, Echo, and Reverb effects to adjust the
amount of each effect. Choose a new setting from the Equalizer pop-up menu to adjust
the equalization. If your song is playing, you hear the changes in real time.

Choose an effect from one of the Effect pop-up menus on the left, then choose an
effect setting for the effect from the Preset pop-up menu on the right.

Additional effects you can add include treble reduction, bass reduction, amp
simulation, chorus, flanging, phase shifting, and tremolo.
