Hey guys

Whats the key command on a mac to de-activate a plugin? In windows I just right-click but Cant remember how to do it on the mac!

Cheers

on the cd (probably on your HDD too), there is a manual... all the key commands are in there...

Ive checked the mac key commands pdf and I can't see any mention of deactivating a plugin, only how to bypass??

What exactly do you mean by "deactivating" a plugin?

You can either remove it or bypass... what other means of deactivation do you need?

You can remove it, bypass it, and deactivate it in windows cos I do it all the time! Just wanna know the key command on a mac. When you deactivate it, the plugin uses no cpu, very usefull.

Alt click im pretty sure.

Apple+alt or apple+alt+ctrl I think.

Sub apple for command or something if your on a pc.

Oh, i see what you meant... I usually just remove plugins that I'm not using... makes more sense... at least to me... but yeah, should be Cmd+click on MAC... its Ctrl+Click on PC... i think...

control + apple click to bypass the insert completely and just apple click to bypass the plug.

the control + apple is useful for bypassing hardware inserts or deactiving to save dsp without losing the settings etc...
