The effects do not become inactive unless you are in Low Latency Mode.

Don't confuse Low Latency Mode as the same thing as turning your Hardware Buffer size (in Playback Engine) to lower settings (like 128 or lower). Those are two different things.

With Low Latency Mode, you could have your Hardware Buffer size set high. This would be the thing to do if your computer is choking with 128 or lower buffer settings.

If you have Low Latency Mode off and low Hardware buffer sizes, then you will get low latency and your plug-ins will stay active. This is the best option if your computer can handle it.
