On a digital desk, what is "inserted" in the signal path to modify the audio in a variety of ways?

A plug-in is a signal processor, like reverb, EQ, or a compressor, which can be "inserted" into the signal path. They perform a multitude of functions and are produced by the console manufacturers or third-party developers. Some require an external server and computer setup to run. A digital console has its own native versions, but Waves 9 is an example of a bundle of these from a third party.
