Buses and routing
AUX buses
An AUX bus is a collecting bus combining all signals of the corresponding
"AUX sends" of the individual channels. AUX buses are usually used for
controlling real-time effects via the volume curve. For this purpose, part of the
signal of the desired mixer channel is sent to the AUX bus ("AUX send") and
effects are added. The AUX bus fader represents the "AUX return". This means
that the higher the volume of the AUX bus, the more effects in the mix will be
audible.
Hint: The AUX tracks contained in the VIP tracks are usually not objects. They
only provide dynamic effects to other tracks.
Submix buses
A submix bus combines several tracks. It controls the volume, panorama, and
effects settings of all tracks that are “routed” to the submix bus. For example,
all drum tracks (hi-hat track, bass drum track, etc.) can be combined to one
submix bus so that the entire drum kit can be controlled via the volume
controller of the submix bus.
Working method
 An AUX/a submix bus can be created in the mixer at any time. To insert a
submix bus after all channels, right click on the number of the last channel
shown in the mixer. In the appearing context menu, select "Insert Tracks ->
New submix bus". If the output of several previous channels is now routed
through this bus, the volume of all of these can be controlled centrally through
the new bus. If you have created an AUX bus with "Insert Tracks -> New AUX
bus", you can channel the signals of the previously created AUX sections into
the the newly created AUX bus. AUX buses are also the target for AUX sends
with a lower channel number.
