Chaining and Reordering Realtime Effects

You can add more than one realtime effect to a track, bus, submix, or audio file project.
Adding multiple effects to an effects chain is called chaining effects.

When you add multiple effects, the effects are applied in sequence, meaning that the
output of the first effect becomes the input for the next effect, and so on, for each effect
in the chain. The order in which effects are applied is important, because each alters the
input signal, which includes the output of previous effects in the chain. You can reorder
effects and hear the difference in the way they alter the sound.

To add multiple effects to an effects chain
Do one of the following:

µ
