Working with Realtime Effects
You can add realtime effects to a track, bus, submix, or the Master bus in a multitrack
project, or to an audio file project, and then adjust the effect parameters to control the
way in which the effects alter the sound of the track or project.
For more information about signal flow in Soundtrack Pro and the various points in the
signal flow where you can add effects, see “
Basic Signal Routing in Soundtrack Pro ” on
page 263 and “ Using Sends and Busses ” on page 270.
