4.4 Overview of Audio Track Effects Table 4.8 Most Common Application Techniques for Effects. Type of Effect Compressor Limiter Gate Expander Equalizer Reverb Insert X X X X X X Send Comments 179 Any dynamic effect needs to be inserted to affect 100% of the original signal The Equalizer needs also to be inserted on the channel strip to filter the entire original signal Ambience effects such as reverb, delay, and echo are usually used as "send" since they are often shared among several channels at the same time. You can use them as "insert" (which I don't recommend) and control the dry/wet ratio by using the "Mix" control directly from the control menu of the effect Delay Echo Chorus Flange X X X X X X X X Modulation effects such as chorus and flange can be used equally well as "insert" or "send"
