Peak Pro, global Plug to a whole project Options

[Quetz]

Hi,
I am using Peak Pro 5.2 (I know it is old...) and am trying to re-equalize a whole project with more than 30 songs. .


This is how I do, but I am apparently wrong somehow:

I import all the songs in the playlist,
the 30 songs appear in the Waveform View, as well as separate tracks (separate little windows actually) on my second monitor.


I activate 1 Plug-in, for example an EQ. (plug-ins/ Insert 1/ SSL EQ)
I exagerate the EQ treatment in order to clearly hear the process.

I can hear the difference using the plug or not using it by by-passing it, it works fine.

Whichever song in the playlist I listen to, the plug-in is activated and works as a global plug-in for the whole project. This is what I want.


But n I want to save it with the new EQ. :
I click on one of the songs in the separate little windows, song#1 for example and I try to save it with a different name (Song#1NEWEQ2014 for example) . i select the resolution16bits, 44.1 kHz, AIF,
It saves fine. Well ...apparently!
The new song appears fine in the Finder.

I listen to the new saved song, using iTunes for example: what I hear is the original file with no new EQ.

What is the step I missed?
Thank you for any help!!!

I also try to change the Vbox settings in the List View but nothing changes, whatever I do, the settings remains to "Off"

to finalize your plug in, from the Plug Ins menu, choose "bounce plug-ins".
the file will be processed. then Peak will ask if you'd like to disable or clear the plug-in. (or keep it active).
then save your file. the file now will play back in itunes or elsewhere with the eq settings 'rendered'.
good luck! i'm still using Peak now and then myself, though it's increasingly irritating as operating systems are updated. i miss Bias. dommage.

Thank you so much!!! Really helpful, I will try asap
Actually I am using the good old Bias Peak Pro 5.2 on an old Mac, works like a charm!

Peak is still the editor i reach for first. i've bought and use DSP Quattro, and a new one Triumph. but i like the ease and speed of Peak. i wonder if anyone else out there has a recommendation...?

If you are looking for a current waveform editor, you could do a lot worse than SoundForge for Mac. Sony built it from scratch when they brought it over from Windows and it works very well. The interface is clean, and it comes with useful tool. There is an upgraded version that gives you spectral editing, but I don't have that. I've been using RX3, and RX2 before that.
