FX tracks
Two FX send controllers (FX1 and FX2) are located below the plugin
slots.
You can determine the volume at which you want the signal to be routed to the
two available FX tracks.
An FX track is a complete, additional mixer track which provides a complete
track FX rack and two plugin slots for use as a send effect.
A send effect differs from a normal effect found in the track (Insert) insofar as it
can edit the signals from multiple tracks or objects simultaneously.
The FX are usually hidden in the Mixer. They will be displayed as soon as one
of the FX send controllers is used.
In the first FX track the hall function is activated as standard as it is the most
important application of the send effects.
The volume controllers serve to regulate the volume of the FX track and
corresponds to the old AUX return controller. The mute button is used to
switch the FX function on and off. The solo button enables you to single out FX
individual tracks. The peak meter of the tracks, which send to the FX track, are
displayed in grey.
Live monitoring
Click the speaker button in a mixer channel to activate "low latency"
monitoring.
Instead of the objects, the channel now plays the audio signal arriving at the
sound card’s input – through all the channel’s effects and without latency! This
also applies to the AUX and master effects.
You can now add effects to your vocal or instrumental performance while
recording them, and you can ‘jam’ along to a complete arrangement in real-
time. (Please note that this only works during recording and playback, not
while the arrangement is stopped.)
