Arranging the order of plug-ins
Plug-ins are cumulative during playback. Because of this cumulative effect, you may need to arrange plug-ins in a certain order so that one plug-in’s processing does not adversely affect the next plug-in on the chain. There is no right or wrong way to order plug-ins, but some plug-ins work better when arranged in a particular order.
You can arrange the order of plug-ins in a chain in either the appropriate FX window or the Plug-In Chooser dialog.
Arranging the plug-in order in the FX window
1.Click the Track FX, Bus FX or Assignable FX button (
). The appropriate FX window (Audio Plug-In or Video Track FX) appears.
Assignable effects are available only in the full version of Vegas software.
2.On the plug-in that you want to move, right-click and choose Move Left or Move Right from the shortcut menu. Alternately, drag a plug-in to a new position.
3.Once the chain’s plug-ins are in the order that you want, click the Close button (
) in the upper-right corner to close the window.
Arranging the plug-in order from the Plug-In Chooser dialog
1.Click the Track FX, Bus FX or Assignable FX button (
). The appropriate FX window (Audio Plug-In or Video Track FX) appears.
Assignable effects are available only in the full version of Vegas software.
2.Click the Plug-In Chain button (
). The Plug-In Chooser dialog appears with the plug-in chain displayed at the top.
