Subject:Master FX in AP4: how to activate it?

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?

If I understand you correctly, what you want to do is click on the FX button on the Master fader. 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.

Spy, it's exactly that BUT: with or without the FX, the sound is THE VERY SAME!

!!!

Are you sure? Try an extreme setting, like dry out to infinity and reverb out to 0.0 dB.

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

?

So you add Reverb via the Master's FX Plug-In Chooser button and nothing happens per my suggestion? 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.
