fx chain signal flow

[charles kasler]

Does the signal flow in an fx chain go from left to right? So I could change the order of EQ & compression, for example? Thanks.

Signal flow goes top to bottom. I am unaware of any view in Cakewalk that goes left to right? Please post a screen shot.

Open an FX chain GUI and you'll see it left-right.

Here's a screenshot. How do you get the top to bottom layout you have?

See the arrows between effects? Left to right.

Yes, it flows Left to Right, and yes, you can rearrange the order to suit your preferences

OK I figured it out that view is when you use the effects bin and I'm showing the  Pro Channels Effects Chain.

But same difference. Signal flow is always top to bottom or as in this case left to right as clearly indicated by the arrows. Same in Vegas movie software the effects are shown left to right.
