Process > Apply Effect > Audio Effects
Process > Apply Effect > Audio Effects
The Process > Apply Effect > Audio Effects command (which is greyed-out if you’re not currently
using any audio effects) opens the Apply Audio Effects dialog box. Applying an audio effect means
that the audio data that you apply the effect to is permanently altered to sound like it would if it was
flowing through an effects processor in real time. Applying an effect saves a lot of your processor’s
power for other tasks that must be done in real time.
Clicking
OK in this dialog box applies any audio effects that are patched into track inserts. but does
not apply effects that are patched into a bus. You can also check the Delete the effects from the
track inserts check box to remove the real-time effects from the track inserts after you apply them,
so the audio data does not receive a double dose of the same effects.
See:
“Real-time audio effects processing” on page 846
Process > Apply Effect > MIDI Effects
The Process > Apply Effect > MIDI Effects command opens the Apply MIDI Effects dialog box,
which allows you to apply any MIDI effects that are patched into a track to all selected data in that
track. Applying a MIDI effect means that the MIDI data that you apply the effect to is permanently
altered to sound like it would if it was flowing through an effects processor in real time. You can leave
the
Delete the effects from the track inserts check box checked to remove the real-time MIDI
effects from the track inserts after you apply them, so the track data does not receive a double dose
of the same effects.

“Applying MIDI effects” on page 950
“MIDI effects (MIDI plug-ins)” on page 796
Process > Apply Effect > Remove Silence
