Master FX in AP4: how to activate it? -ACID Product Family

Subject:Master FX in AP4: how to activate it? Posted by: jam Date:3/2/2003 7:42:37 AM Hi, I wanted to add some reverb onto my tracks. Instead of using a plugin insert in the mixer, I wanted to add directly this effect into the Master mixer track. FX active in the master track, but can't find any slider to get a dry/wet level of the effect on the master mixer. What am I doing wrong? jam

This should display the Audio Plug-In tab at the bottom left of your screen (where Explorer usually is). You should be able to adjust your parameters from there. HTH One Love, Spy!

Subject:RE: Master FX in AP4: how to activate it? Reply by: jam Date:3/2/2003 2:07:53 PM Iacobus, I moved EVERYTHING but NO CHANGE at all. When I add a FX track next to the mixer, select the FT in all tracks I want to apply (in fact it applies itself to EVERY audio track), and move the dry/wet cursor (one moves ALL the others) it works. It's one of the first time I use FX, and I have to say I've read the manual a little for this part. I think I did everything correctly, but i can't say it 100% sure. It's not so important, as i mix in another application. Anyway, i'll look further with new tests... Regards, jam

Be sure that the Reverb is active in the chain via the Audio Plug-In properties window. If you can add a Master FX such as Reverb but get no results as I suggested there's something up. Iacobus

Hi,

FX active in the master track, but can't find any slider to get a dry/wet level of the effect on the master mixer.
What am I doing wrong?
