Opening a Soft Synth’s Property Page

Software Synthesizers

Two things happen: the soft synth’s interface appears, and the soft

synth’s name appears in the track’s or bus’s FX bin, with a bypass

button next to the name.

3. Set the soft synth’s parameters (choose sounds, effects, etc.), and drag

its interface out of the way.

4. Click the Output field of a MIDI track to display the output menu.

5. Select the name of the soft synth that you patched into the audio track

or bus.

6. If the soft synth is multi-timbral, choose a MIDI channel for the MIDI

track.

7. Also in the MIDI track, select a bank and patch.

Now you can record some MIDI data into the MIDI track to play the soft

synth with. See To Play a Soft Synth with Recorded MIDI Data.

You can also play the soft synth in real-time from a MIDI controller. See To

Play a Soft Synth from a MIDI Controller.
