Making Inserts Inactive
Plug-in and hardware inserts can be made inac-
tive to free up their resources for other uses.
When a plug-in insert is inactive it retains its as-
signment, position, and related automation
playlists. However, it will not pass audio and
does not consume any DSP or TDM resources.
When opening sessions, inserts will automati-
cally be made inactive in any of the following
situations:
• The system has insufficient DSP resources.
• A plug-in is not installed.
• A plug-in type is not available (RTAS or TDM).
• Opening the session results in plug-in type
substitutions. This can happen if the type is
available but substituting would result in an
unsupported condition, such as opening a
session containing a TDM plug-in for which
an RTAS version is unavailable.
To make an insert inactive, do one of the following:
■
Control-Start-click (Windows) or Command-
Control-click (Mac) the Insert button.
– or –
■
Make the track inactive. See “Making Tracks
Inactive” on page 145.
To toggle inserts in the same position on all tracks
active or inactive:
■
Control-Start-Alt click (Windows) or Com-
mand-Control-Option click (Mac) an Insert but-
ton in the position you want to toggle.
To toggle inserts in the same position on all
selected tracks active or inactive:
■
Control-Start-Alt-Shift-click (Windows) or
Command-Control-Option-Shift-click (Mac) an
Insert button in the position you want to toggle.
