The Effects Library

Once you install third-party effects on your workstation, they appear in this panel of the Effects Library alongside the Fairlight FX that are always available. Audio plugins let you apply effects to audio clips or as a real time process on an entire audio track (affecting all clips on that track), to add basic dynamics or tonal processing compression, limiting or EQ, noise reduction, or creative spatial effects like delay or reverb.

Similar to the Media Pool, the Effects Library’s Bin list can be opened or closed using a button at the top left.


Effects Library Favorites

To save an effect as a Favorite:

— Hover over the far right of any effect to see a star
