9.2.10 Hardware Inserts
You can insert external hardware processors into audio channels in the Console, using the
Pipeline plug-in (only in Studio One Professional). The Pipeline plug-in can be found in the
PreSonus folder of the Effects Browser when sorted by Folder, Vendor, or Category.
The Pipeline plug-in routes audio to a hardware processor and then back from that processor
through specific inputs and outputs on your audio interface, while automatically
compensating for the round-trip latency incurred in the process. You can insert an instance of
Pipeline in any Insert Device Rack.
To learn more about Pipeline, refer to section 13.11 of this manual.
9.2.11 Configuring Sends
A send is used to route the audio output, pre-or post-fader, from one channel to another
source, such as an FX Channel.
9.2.12 Send to an FX Channel
To simultaneously create a new FX Channel and create a send to that FX Channel from an
existing channel, click-and-drag an effect from the Browser into the Send Device Rack on a
channel. This will create a send for the channel to a new FX Channel with the selected effect
loaded in its Insert Device Rack.
You can also drag an audio effect into a blank space in the Console to create an
FX Channel with that effect loaded into its Insert Device Rack. To route audio
from a channel to an existing FX Channel, click on the Add Send button in the
Send Device Rack and choose the FX Channel from the list.
Alternatively, you can create an FX Channel by [Right]/[Control]-clicking in
blank space in the Console, or on any channel, and selecting Add FX. This will
add an FX Channel to the Console with no inserts, which can be the destination
for any send.
FX Channels can only output to the Main Out channel of the Console.
To quickly view the effects in the Insert Device Rack of a send's destination channel, double-
click on the send. You can then navigate the Insert Effect window as usual.
9.2.13 Send Level and Pre/Post Fader
Once a send has been added to a channel, the send device will appear in the Send Device Rack
for that channel. You will find an Activate button, horizontal Level and Pan faders, and a
Pre/Post Fader button. Click on the Activate button to activate/deactivate the send; this does
not affect the send's destination channel.
