System information
If the Mixing Console Window is visible, you can use the Insert FX control region in the assignable
effects channel strip to edit the assignable effects chain. For more information, see "FX Send
(Assignable Effects) Channel Strips" on page 375.
Deleting an assignable effects chain
When you remove an assignable effects chain, it is deleted from the project. You must recreate the chain if
you want to use it again. If you want to keep the chain, but do not want to use it in your current project,
you may save the chain as a preset. For more information, see "Creating and Using Effects Packages" on
page 310.
To bypass an assignable effects chain without removing it from the project, select the Mute button
in the Faders control region of the assignable effects channel strip. For more information, see "FX Send
(Assignable Effects) Channel Strips" on page 375.
Right-click an assignable effects channel strip in the Mixing Console window and choose Delete from the
shortcut menu, or select an assignable effects channel strip and press the Delete key.
Automating effect parameters
If a plug-in supports it, you can use envelopes to automatically adjust effect parameters over time. To
automate assignable effects, add automation envelopes to the assignable effect's audio bus track. For
more information, see "Audio Bus Tracks" on page 246.
For more information about automating effect parameters, see "Automating Audio Effect Parameters" on
page 263.

For more information about using specific plug-ins, click the Plug-In Help button in the Assignable FX
window to display the plug-in's help file.
Routing Tracks to an Assignable Effects Chain
Routing tracks to an assignable effects chain allows you to assign multiple tracks to a plug-in chain.
In order to route tracks to an assignable effects chain, you must first add an assignable effects chain
to your project. For more information, see "Adding an Assignable Effects Chain" on page 307.
