• MIDI-controlled effects
As the name suggests, Generator Audio Units plug-ins generate audio signals. In contrast
to software instruments, however, they do not require a MIDI note message to be
triggered.
Audio Units MIDI-controlled effects can be controlled via MIDI, unlike standard audio
effect plug-ins. As such, they are used differently.
