Insert effect/off

Post by hydraphonic » Sat Oct 23, 2004 6:43 am

Hi,

In one channel, I have 2 clips. When one clip plays, I want a certain effect off, when the other plays, I want it on.

Is it possible?



Thanks,


Rob

You need to read about clip envelopes in the manual... they will allow you to accomplish this quite easily.

Thanks V,

I'm aware of clip envelopes but cannot find a way to direct one to an effect on/off.

Do you know of a way?

point the clip envelope then at the parameter that will best let you "bypass" it ... for a delay you control the wet/dry with a clip envelope, for a lowpass filter you control the frequency, etc.

set one clip to turn the effect to the desired effect amount, and the other to return the effect to a bypass-like state.

be more specific what effect are you trying to use?

I want to automate Predatohm. Unfortunately there's no wet/dry or on/off within the plugin itself....

Mmm... perhaps I could make a "dry" preset, and change patches.....

possibly, if not you can use clip envelopes set to mixer and then send A or send B (assuming your effect will work as a send effect as well) and automate the channel's send level.
