External FX Plug-in
The External FX plug-in allows you to add external effect devices to the Master Section and to the audio montage via the Inspector.
-
To open the External FX plug-in, add it to the effects list of the Master Section or Inspector.
- Picture
-
Allows you to add a picture to the External FX window. You can add a picture of your external effect to remember the settings that you have made to the external effect, for example.
-
To enlarge the picture, right-click it and select Show Picture.
-
To remove the picture, right-click it and select Remove Picture.
-
- Audio Bus
-
Allows you to select the audio bus of your external effect.
- Latency
-
External effects can introduce latency. WaveLab can automatically compensate for this if you select Auto (only active during rendering), or you can set this latency compensation yourself (in milliseconds). The latency introduced by the ASIO driver is automatically taken into account by WaveLab.
Detect allows you to measure the latency of the audio signal.
- Send Gain/Return Gain
-
Allows you to adjust the send gain and return gain. This should normally be set to 0 dB. If necessary, adjust the input level on the external effect.
The level meters allow you to check the incoming or outgoing signal of your external effect device.
The indicators at the top of the Send Gain/Return Gain sections indicate clipping that leads to distortion when you convert the send signal to an analog signal.
