-<h2>To Reorder (Move) Processors</h2>
 <p>
-  Processors can be re-ordered using drag-and-drop. Dragging a processor 
-  allows it to be moved around within the chain, or copied to another 
-  processor list on another track or bus.
+  Processors can also be dragged and dropped from the <a href="/working-with-plugins/plugin-sidebar/"><dfn>Favorite Plugins</dfn> window</a> to an appropriate spot in the Processor Box.
+</p>
+
+<p class="note">
+  The <dfn>Favorite Plugins</dfn> window can be populated via the <a href="/working-with-plugins/plugin-manager/">Plugin Manager</a>, or by dragging and dropping an existing processor from the <dfn>processor box</dfn> to the <dfn>Favorite Plugins</dfn> window.

+
+<p class="note">
+  Some processors have their own bypass controls that are independent of the one that Ardour provides; this can make it appear that the plugin is non-responsive when its independent bypass control is active.

+<h2>Selecting Processors</h2>
+
+<p>
+  A processor in the <dfn>processor box</dfn> can be selected with a <kbd class="mouse">Left</kbd>-click on it; it will be highlighed in red. Other processors can be selected at the same time by <kbd class="mouse">Left</kbd>-clicking on them while holding down the <kbd class="mod1">&zwnj;</kbd> key, and ranges can be selected by <kbd class="mouse">Left</kbd>-clicking on them while holding down the <kbd>Shift</kbd> key

 <h2>Removing Processors</h2>
+
 <p>
-  Context-click on the processor you want to remove, and select <kbd
-  class="menu">Delete</kbd>, or <kbd class="mod3 mouse">Right</kbd>-click on it. 
+  Context-click on the processor to be removed, and select <kbd class="menu">Delete</kbd>; or <kbd class="mod3 mouse">Right</kbd>-click on it; or <kbd class="mouse">Left</kbd>-click on it and press the <kbd>Delete</kbd> key. If multiple processors are selected, they will all be deleted at the same time.
