External Insert Plug-in
New Features in SONAR 7
Return Level—This is a +/- 24dB trim to the level that is passed from the
external send. This parameter is automatable.
Return VU Meter—This meter shows the signal level entering the external
return.
Return Port Picker—This control lets you choose any available hardware
input. This is the port you that you should connect to the output(s) of your
external gear. All input ports that are already used in the project are
excluded
Note: Input ports that are used by the External Insert plug-in are
excluded from all track and bus Input controls.
Delay Measurement—This control shows the last measured round-trip
delay through your audio hardware. Click the control to initiate a new
measurement.
Manual Delay Offset—The center control displays and resets the manual
delay offset. The buttons to the left decrease the manual offset by 1 or
10 milliseconds. The buttons to the right increase the manual offset by
1 or 10 milliseconds. All delay buttons are disabled during
playback.
Note 1: Time-based effects such as reverb and delay can artificially
increase the latency measurement. Before manually measuring the delay,
you may want to bypass the external gear (if Bypass is supported by your
external gear).
Note 2: The delay is automatically re-measured if the Audio Buffer size is
changed in the Audio Options dialog or if ports are changed.
