15.2. USING PLUG-INS 204
The Plug-In Unfold
Button.
You can view or hide the VST Plug-in's parameters by toggling the triangle-shaped button
in the plug-in's title bar.
The X-Y control eld can be used to control two plug-in parameters at once and is therefore
especially well-suited for live control. To assign any two plug-in parameters to the Live panel
X-Y eld, use the drop-down menus directly beneath it.
Once a plug-in is placed in a track, you can use it just like a Live device:
You can edit all of its parameters and drag it to different locations in the device chain
or to other tracks, according to the rules of audio effects and instruments.
You can map MIDI-controller messages to its parameters.
You can modulate its continuous parameters with clip envelopes.
You can also use the multiple I/O features of some plug-ins by assigning them as
sources or targets in the routing setup of tracks. See the chapter on routing for details.
