Paste DSP Settings Page

Pressing the DOWN/NO button in this page will have no effect. Pressing the UP/YES button will paste all DSP parameters from the temporary RAM buffer into the destination track. This process leaves the RAM buffer intact, so multiple pastes are possible without having to re- copy each time.

3.3RESET DSP SETTINGS

If you just want to "zero" the DSP settings on a Track, returning them to the factory defaults and turning them off, you can use the Reset DSP function.

To reset all DSP parameters in a Track, first select your destination Track, then press the TRACK DSP button repeatedly until DSP Page 7 is displayed, as shown in Figure 3.3.1.

Reset DSP Settings Page

Pressing the DOWN/NO button in this page will have no effect. Pressing the UP/YES button will prompt you with an "Are you sure? Y/N" message. Pressing DOWN/NO will cancel the DSP Reset operation. Pressing UP/YES in this screen will reset all DSP parameters (Track Gain, Compression parameters, EQ parameters, Limiter parameters, Normalizer parameters, and Track Fade parameters) in the destination track.

3.4RENDER DSP TO AUDIO FILE

MasterLink Track DSP is applied as a real-time process, allowing modifications to the DSP without changing the original Audio File. There are instances, however, where it is convenient to commit, or "render" the applied Track DSP to the Audio File, thereby permanently changing the Audio File. MasterLink Version 2.0 software gives you the ability to render your Track DSP settings to the associated Audio File.

NOTE: The Render DSP function is a destructive edit and cannot be undone once rendered. If you need to be able to recover the original, non-rendered audio data, be sure to make a copy of the Audio File before rendering DSP (covered in Section 2.6 of this Addendum).

Once you have made the desired changes to the Track DSP settings and decide you wish to render the DSP to the Audio File associated with your Track, press the TRACK DSP button repeatedly until DSP Page 8 is displayed, as shown in Figure 3.4.1.
