Adding effects in the Track view

You can add both MIDI and audio effects directly from the Track view. SONAR adds these effects in real-time, preserving your track’s original data.

To add effects in the Track view

1.	Right-click in the FX Rack of the track you want to add effects to.

 

A. Right-click here to add an effect

An effects pop-up menu appears. SONAR displays MIDI effects if you are editing a MIDI track, and audio effects for an audio track.

2.	Select an effect from the menu.

The name of the effect appears in the FX Rack and the effect’s property page appears. To delete the effect, right-click the effect name and choose Delete from the pop-up menu.

3.	Set the effects parameters or choose a preset.

Play your track and listen to the effect(s).

Note: If you use the same effects for more than one track, it’s more efficient to add the effects to an bus. See To patch a track through a bus.
