External Effects

You can use external effects with WaveLab Pro. The External FX plug-in allows you to add external effect devices to the Master Section and to the audio montage via the Inspector.

In order to use external effects, you must set up external effect buses. External effect buses consist of send buses (output) and return buses (input).

Each audio bus can have only one active external effect at a time. If the audio bus has more than one external effect, all other external effects are bypassed. If an external effect is no longer used and another external effect uses the same audio bus, the other external effect is activated.

The external effects that you set up in the Audio Connections are available in the External FX plug-in.

You can use the External FX plug-in in the Effects pane of the Master Section and in the Inspector for audio montages as clip, track, and output effect.

Example

If you add an External FX plug-in as an insert effect in the Master Section, the audio is sent to the corresponding audio output, processed in your external effect devices, and returned to the plug-in via the specified audio input.
