Effects Pane

Expands or collapses the pane.

Bypasses any effect processing during playback and when rendering.

Allows you to add an effect to an empty effect slot.

Allows you to specify how a VST plug-in processes the stereo stream. You can process all channels or only the left, right, mid, or side channel. This allows any VST plug-in to become mid/side capable.

Lets other meters in WaveLab Pro, for example, Oscilloscope or Wavescope, monitor the signal directly after this plug-in.

If no monitoring point is specified, the monitoring point is after the Final Effects/Dithering section and before the Playback Processing section.

The Master Level meter of the Master Section always monitors the level after the faders.

Once you have added a plug-in to a slot, you can click the plug-in name to open and close the corresponding plug-in window.

Lets you save and recall preset settings. The Presets pop-up menu offers additional options to save and load default banks and effects.

Allows you to load another effect to the effect slot. Furthermore, the following options are available:

• Remove Plug-in removes the effect from the slot.

• Shift All Plug-ins Down/Shift All Plug-ins Up allows you to move the effects to another position.

• If Active is activated, the effect is active. If Active is deactivated, the effect is excluded from playback and rendering.

• If Lock is activated, the effect slot is locked. The plug-in in the slot remains as is when a Master Section preset is loaded, or when Reset Master Section is used.

Soloes the plug-in.

Bypasses the plug-in during playback and optionally during rendering. The signal is still processed by the plug-in, but is not injected in the audible stream.
