3. To set the focus to a Sound channel: If the Mixer is currently displaying the Group channel
strips, in the Mixer’s top row double-click the blank space in the header of the Group con-
taining the desired Sound, then click the header of the desired Sound in the row below. If
the Mixer is currently displaying Sound channel strips, in the top row click the header of
the Group containing the desired Sound, then click the header of this Sound in the row
below.
Finally, load the effect in the focused channel strip:
► In the Plug-in List of the focused channel, click the little “ + ” to append the effect to the
list, or right-click ([Ctrl]-click on macOS) an existing Plug-in slot to replace its current
Plug-in, and select the desired effect in the Plug-in menu that opens.
→ The effect is loaded and directly starts to process the audio of the channel. The effect al-
so appears in the Plug-in Strip under the Mixer, allowing you to adjust its parameters.
In fact you don’t need to explicitly put the focus on the channel in which you want to load the ef-
fect: You only have to make that channel visible in the Mixer! You can then directly click the “ + ”
symbol or right-click ([Ctrl]-click on macOS) an existing Plug-in slot to load the effect in that chan-
nel. Nevertheless, setting the focus on the channel has the advantage of displaying the new effect
in the Plug-in Strip under the Mixer for adjusting its parameters — you can do this afterwards.
