Adjusting the Plug-in Parameters

The procedure for adjusting the Plug-in parameters is common to all types of Plug-ins and all
sets of Channel properties. It is described in section
Plug-ins, and Parameter Pages in the Control
Native Instruments and External Plug-ins only: You can also adjust the Plug-in parame-
ters via the own user interface of the VST/AU plug-in. More on this in
Velocity / Modwheel.
6.1.5 Bypassing Plug-in Slots
You can bypass (or "mute") any Plug-in slot. When a Plug-in slot is bypassed, the Plug-in it
contains is temporarily removed from the signal flow and does not process the audio passing
through the slot. Instead, the incoming audio is directly sent to the next Plug-in slot for further
processing (or to the channel's output if you bypass its last Plug-in slot).
Bypassing Plug-in slots can be very useful in various situations, for example:
▪ Bypassing and re-enabling an effect during a live performance.
▪ Comparing the sound with and without an effect.
▪ Troubleshooting complex effect chains and routings ("Where does this strange reverb tail
come from?").

1. If you want to bypass a Plug-in of the Master, click the
of the Control area.

3. If you want to bypass a Plug-in of a Sound, click the Group of its parent Group in the Ar-
