Chapter 4: Operation
Live or mixdown?
The AVP functions equally well processing audio during its original perfor-
mance or later during the mixdown process. However, if you have the
choice (which you typically will for everything but a live stage perfor-
mance), we strongly recommend using the AVP as an insert effect during
mixdown. This will allow you to experiment with various settings while
auditioning their effect in the context of the entire mix.
If you do choose to work this way, and plan to use the Microphone
Modeling function, it is important that you document mic data for each
recorded track. This should include the mic used, whether a low-cut filter
was engaged, as well as the average distance between the mic and the
signal source (singer, instrument, etc.). This information will be required to
properly set the Source Mic controls during the mix.
Patching the AVP into your system
Depending on your specific setup, there are a number of ways to patch
the AVP into your system. We’ll cover the most common below.
As an insert effect using your mixer’s channel insert jack(s)
This is probably the most common setup for the AVP. It will function as a
pre-fader effect on one of your mixer’s input channels.
