In-Place Rendering

In the Audio Editor, you can either process particular sections of an audio file or the entire audio file, to exclusively apply plug-ins to specific audio ranges or test the effect of different plug-ins on the entire audio file, for example.

You can access the Render in Place function:

  • via the Render tab of the Audio Editor.

    To start in-place rendering, click Start Rendering.

  • via the Master Section.

    Right-click Render, and select Render in Place

  • via the command bar of a plug-in window

Selecting Render in Place via the Render tab allows you to make additional adjustments in the Options pop-up menu. If you select Render in Place in the Master Section or a plug-in window, the following render settings are activated by default:

  • Fade in/out at boundaries

  • Exclude bypassed plug-ins

Note

Once an audio section has been processed, there is no automatic bypass of plug-ins or the Master Section.

Example

Common use case:

You intend to use a De-Clicker plug-in on an audio file, but you are not sure which of the three De-Clicker plug-ins that are available to you is most suited to obtain the desired results.

  1. Load the three plug-ins in the Master Section.

  2. Select an audio range, solo plug-in #1, and play back the audio range.

  3. Solo plug-in #2, and play back the audio range.

  4. Solo plug-in #3, and play back the audio range.

  5. Solo the plug-in that you like best, and click Render in Place, or press Alt-A.
