To directly insert an effect into a channel strip:

1As the Inst 2 track is already selected, simply click the top Insert slot (the slot just below Inserts) on the left channel strip.

A menu of all available effect plug-ins is shown.

2Hover the mouse pointer over the Distortion menu item, and click on Bitcrusher in the sub-menu.

The Bitcrusher is loaded into the top Insert slot of this instrument channel. Its plug-in window automatically opens. The Library tab to the right of the Arrange window also updates, showing a list of Bitcrusher settings.

4Repeat these steps to insert further effects into Insert slot 2, slot 3, and so on.

∏Tip: An alternative way to load settings is found in the plug-in window header. This is discussed in “Editing Instruments and Effects” on page 58.
