Moving and Copying RTAS Inserts
You can move and copy RTAS inserts from one track to another. However, you can only move
mono inserts to mono tracks and stereo inserts to stereo tracks.
RTAS plug-in effects on inserts a, b, and c in the Track Control panel
To move an RTAS insert from one position to another, do the following:
t Click an RTAS insert button and drag it to an RTAS insert button on a new track or to a new
insert button on the same track. If the destination RTAS button already has an insert on it, the
new insert replaces the existing one.
To copy an RTAS insert from one position to another, do the following:
t Alt+drag (Windows) or Option+drag (Macintosh) an insert button to an insert button on a
new track or to a new insert button on the same track.
Ordering RTAS Inserts on a Track
When you combine RTAS plug-ins on an audio track, the order in which you insert them affects
how your Avid editing application applies the effects. This can produce different results for your
sequence. Your Avid editing application processes RTAS effects in order from left to right as
they appear in the Track Control panel (insert a through insert e). For example, if you insert a
compressor plug-in to the right of an EQ plug-in, your Avid editing application applies EQ effect
first and then applies the compressor effect to the result.
You must have one empty insert on your audio track so you do not replace an existing insert
when you reorder the inserts.
To modify the order of RTAS inserts on a track, do the following:
t Click an RTAS insert button and drag it to an empty insert button in the Track Control panel.
