Master section effects applied even in bypass

Is it normal that plugins inserted get processed when the main master bypass is on (red). The effect section stays green but I assumed this would be ignored if the master is off (although I see the playback section should still be active).

Cheers

This is normal. If you really want to slip the Master Section rendering, select the option in the render menu.

Ok cheers PG.

If one selects the option ‘Bypass Master Section’ in the rendering options, will this also bypass the Final Effects / Dithering?

Yes
