Using the Plug-in Window
Hands-on operation of plug-ins takes place in the plug-in window. This window allows
access to all plug-in parameters. Each instance of a plug-in has its own plug-in window,
allowing each to have discrete settings.
The plug-in window is automatically opened when you insert a plug-in. This behavior
can be overridden by turning off the “Open Plug-in window on insertion” checkbox in
the Logic Pro > Preferences > Audio > General tab.
To close a plug-in window:
m Click on the X icon at the top left of the plug-in window.
Note: Closing the plug-in window does not deactivate the plug-in.
To open a closed plug-in window:
m Double-click on an assigned Insert or Instrument slot (the name of the plug-in is shown
on the slot).
To hide or show all open plug-in windows:
m Use the Hide/Show All Plug-in Windows key command (default: V).
Adjusting Plug-in Parameters
This section briefly touches on interaction with common parameter elements you will
find in Logic Pro plug-in windows. Full details on the parameters of each individual
plug-in can be found in the Logic Studio Instruments and Effects manual.
To switch plug-in window buttons:
m Click on the button.
