Modulators are not restricted to units
Modulators can now grasp mixer and task controls too, this implies one LFO can modulate any instrument at the similar observe, in addition to the observe’s panning, sends, and different parameters. Customers can transfer that LFO to the task point so as to add modulations to all units, channel strips, and delivery objectives
New Efficiency Gestures
