Helo,

How to turn on Master FX third party plugin (LoudMax64 plugin) programatically in C#?

I have been searching forum posts but I am not able to find the answer.

Thank you in advance for help

Marcin, this post shows how to add and effect using a script to an event, track, media, or project.

Is that what you're looking for or are you looking for something different?

No, I meant something different. I meant Master FX which is able to apply only audio plugins. It is a button on upper bar of volume bars.

@marcinzm, that video would still apply. It shows how to add video effects to an event, track, media, or project for video effects. The same would apply for audio effects except you would use this to access the Master audio bus Effects:

myVegas.Project.MasterBus.Effects.Add(projectAudioEffect);

And the audio effects can only be added at the event, track, and project levels.

I'll write a new tutorial on adding the audio effects.

After some tests, I would be more interested in how to turn on the audio plugin already applied on Master audio Bus Effects. I wouldn't like to add new Project Audio Effect, but I would like to only turn on the audio plugin which already is there and it is already applied, but it is turn off.

Can you help me to achieve the goal?
Thank you in advance

Just go through the list of effects on the MasterBus and you can easily turn them on or off. By default, once added they will be "on".

For example, this will "turn on" all effects on the audio MasterBus

            foreach (Effect eff in myVegas.Project.MasterBus.Effects)
            {
                eff.Bypass = false;
            }

Thank you.

I did the similiar code to yours:

Effects lista_effektow_audio = myVegas.Project.MasterBus.Effects;            
foreach (Effect lea in lista_effektow_audio)
            {
                if (lea.Description.ToString().Equals("LoudMax64    (VST2, 64 Bit)"))
                {                    if (lea.Bypass)
                    {
                        DialogResult dialogResult = MessageBox.Show("Wtyczka \"LoudMax64    (VST2, 64 Bit)\" jest wyłączona. Czy chciałbyś ją włączyć?", "Wtyczka LoudMax64", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo);
                        if (dialogResult == DialogResult.Yes)
                        {
                            lea.Bypass = false;
                            myVegas.UpdateUI();
                        }
                    }
                    break;
                }
            }
