On channel strips where Insert slot 1 is used: Option-double-click the EQ area to insert
the Channel EQ as the first plug-in, and move all existing plug-ins of the channel strip
one slot down (and redirect their automation data accordingly, if necessary).
Double-clicking the EQ area on channel strips with an occupied Insert slot 1 inserts the
Channel EQ into the next available (unused) slot.
You can freely insert the Channel EQ into any Insert slot as you can other plug-ins. You’ll
find it in the EQ section of the Plug-in menu. Note that only the first (topmost) Channel EQ
is displayed as a thumbnail graphic in the EQ area.
More information about the parameters of the Channel EQ can be found in the Logic Studio
Instruments and Logic Studio Effects manuals.
Working with Channel Strip Configurations
Channel strip settings (CST files) are channel strip–type specific. Put another way,
instrument channel strips feature a number of instrument settings (or presets), such as
Bright Pop Piano and Hard Flanging Clav, separated into instrument, GarageBand, and
Jam Pack categories. Audio channel strips offer effect routings optimized for particular
instrument, vocal, and other processing tasks. Similarly, output and auxiliary channel
strips provide channel strip settings for particular mastering or sweetening processes.
