Adding Effects

Studio.HD has a built in effects library that can be used for live DJ gigs, or in our case, to add multiple effects to any of the audio tracks. Click the right arrow to show the effects and track volume panel. You can place up to four separate effects on each track. Under the "FX" menu, tap-and-hold an effect, and drag it to the desired track.

You can also drag up to four effects to the "Master" effect bar. This will apply an effect to the project globally, instead of to an individual track.

Tip: Pinch the timeline sideways to zoom in and out for more precise editing.

Pro Tip: To apply more than 4 effects on any particular set of audio, tap the clip, copy it, paste it in a new track, and align the clips. Then add new effects to the duplicated track.

Changing Effects

Tap "Hold" to change the effect permanently (as opposed to temporarily, like you might in a live performance situation). Drag the square around the quadrants to get a sense for the effect. Drop it where it sounds best. You can always tweak this later.
