Mixers and Audio Objects

Choosing an Audio Object: If you have used the displayed
effect algorithm in another effect object, you can simply
swap between the objects. You can quickly compare set-
tings.
Insert Slot Selection: If you have installed more Plug-Ins in
other insert slots of the same effect object, you can quickly
change to the other Plug-Ins. This allows you to quickly
balance the settings of all the Plug-Ins within an object.
Plug Ins from Other Manufacturers
DirectX: MAGIX midi studio generation 6 supports the
DirectX standard, which allows real-time effects made by
different software manufacturers to be integrated into
MAGIX midi studio generation 6’s audio signal-flow.
Please follow the installation instructions from the Plug-
In manufacturers to ensure their correct installation.
There is an application on the MAGIX midi studio gener-
ation 6 program CD that allows you to exclude certain
Plug-Ins—the Plug-In-Enabler. Due to some technical
changes with the new audio engine, some Direct Show
plug-ins which appeared in generation 5 may not appear
MAGIX midi studio generation 6. If so, exit MAGIX midi
studio generation 6, and start the latest version of the
plug-in enabler in order to re-activate the deactivated plug-
ins, assuming that these had been working correctly be-
fore.
The Plug-Ins are automatically available in the Plug-In
menu, along with MAGIX midi studio generation 6’s own
effects. This is the menu which opens when you open an
audio object’s Insert button ( in an effect object).
Double click an inserted Plug-In to open its editor. If the
selected Plug-In does not have its own editor, MAGIX
midi studio generation 6’s standard surface will be used to
access the Plug-In’s parameters.
VST™2.0 Support: MAGIX midi studio generation 6
supports the use of VST™2.0 plug-ins. Of course, this
means that VST™1.x plug-ins are now also supported.
Please note the difference: VST™1.x plug-ins work as au-
dio-in/audio-out plug-ins, as do your built MAGIX plug-
ins, and are thus to be inserted in the effect objects (see
above). However, VST™ 2.0 plug-ins work as MIDI-in/
audio-out plug-ins, as do your built-in MAGIX synthesizer
plug-ins, and are thus to be inserted in audio-instrument
objects (see below). These support the stereo outputs of
the relevant plug-ins.
