Conditions for AudioSuite Rendering with Handles, Fades,
Clip Gain, and Metadata
Most AudioSuite plug-ins provide several options for rendering clips, but only certain settings let you ap-
ply AudioSuite handles. For example, AudioSuite Handles are not available with Entire Selection mode
(since the point of this option is to render the whole selection only). Fades and crossfades, and clip gain set-
tings are preserved or rendered depending on the File mode and AudioSuite Rendering mode settings. Ad-
ditionally, clip metadata can be preserved for rendered clips under certain conditions. The following con-
ditions apply.

Some plug-ins that rely on the Edit selection for processing (including plug-ins that require an anal-
ysis pass) may not work as expected when using handles. In this case, it is recommended that the han-
dle length be set to zero.
Destructive recording and Destructive Punch recording are not supported with AudioSuite rendered
clips with handles.
