Muting Soft Effects
 
 
 

To remove a soft effect temporarily from the vertical edit, mute it. To put the soft effect back into the vertical edit, simply un-mute it. Muted soft effects are indicated by black LEDs on the soft effect button.

NoteIf you mute a Timewarp soft effect, only mix and trail values are muted. You cannot mute timing effects with the mute button.

To mute a soft effect:

  1. Select the element that has the soft effect you want to mute.
  2. Click the blue LED on the soft effect button.

    The LED on the soft effect button and the soft effect indicator on the timeline turn black. The soft effect is temporarily removed from the vertical edit.

To enable a muted soft effect:

  1. Select the element that has the muted soft effect.
  2. Click the black LED.

    The LED turns blue, and the soft effect is reapplied to the vertical edit.

NoteFrom the EditDesk record timeline, you can also toggle Alt plus the corresponding hotkey number to cycle between muting and reenabling a soft effect.
