Built-In Effects

Studio One features a number of high-quality, 64-bit, built-in audio effects and virtual
instruments. The following chapter describes each audio effect in detail. Virtual instruments
will be covered in a separate chapter.
13.1

Built-in Effect Micro Views

All of the built-in effects feature Micro Views, which are small, expandable control panels
within the Insert Device Rack that allow control over the critical parameters of each effect.
Using the Micro View in the Insert Device Rack will often prevent having to open the entire
effect interface, and it also allows easy monitoring of compression, gating, and other effects.
Try the built-in effects Micro Views in both the small and large Console views.

Built-in Effect Metering Options

Some of the built-in effects that feature Peak/RMS meters can optionally use K-System
metering, as discussed in the "Mixing" chapter. To view and select a K-System metering
option, [Right]/[Control]-click on the Peak/RMS meter of the effect.
Visually keeping track of various elements of audio playback while mixing and mastering can
be very helpful when making critical production decisions. The following audio effects are
excellent tools for visually monitoring your audio.

To expand the Micro View for any built-in effect, open the
Console and click once on the effect in the Insert Device Rack.
The Micro View will expand downward, revealing certain
parameters of the effect. Not all parameters of each effect are
available in the Micro View, only those you are likely to change
frequently.

Insert Device Rack. Use this to scroll up and down in the Insert
Device Rack to view any number of open Micro Views. To
collapse any Micro View, click once on the effect name at the top
of the Micro View.
