Routing Insert Effects through Specific Audio Channels

If you insert a stereo insert effect on a multichannel track, the first speaker channels of the track are routed through the available effect channels. The other channels remain unprocessed. However, you can route the effect through different speaker channels.

1. In the track list, click Edit Channel Settings to open the Channel Settings window for the track on which the effect is inserted.
2. In the Inserts section, click Routing to open the Routing tab.
3. Double-click the signal diagram for the insert effect to open the Routing Editor.

   

   The first speaker channels of the track are routed through the available effect channels.

4. Optional: Activate Link to link the input and output channel assignment.
5. Click the arrow buttons to route different speaker channels through the effect.

   

Result

The effect is routed through different channels of the audio.

Note

To route a stereo plug-in through all 6 channels of a 5.1 track, add 3 instances of it and use different speaker channels for each instance.
