2 The Pro-Codec Plug-In – Auditioning Codecs in Real-time

2.1 Auditioning and Comparing Codecs

Insert the Plug-In; this can be on any track that contains
some audio material but is most sensibly used on the output
bus.

By default, the Pro-Codec Plug-In has only a single codec
loaded –

AAC-LC, CBR, 256 kbps

. To change these settings,

just click on the row in the

Codec List to open the Codec

Settings Selector panel. To add another codec, click in one
of the four empty rows in the

Codec List.

To copy codec settings to a new row, just

Alt + click and

drag an existing codec row to an empty row.

To remove a codec, click the red

’X’ that appears when the

cursor is over a codec row.

When you start playback through the host, by default you
will hear the encoded audio (if the

MASTER IN button is

enabled).

To audition other codecs, click on the

MON button for any

active codec row.

For glitch-less bypass, toggle the

MASTER IN button. The

monitor LEDs at top right indicate codec or input as the
monitored signal.
