156 MIXER
Submix busses
A submix bus combines several tracks. It controls the volume, panorama and effect
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 then be controlled via the volume controller of the submix bus.
Aux routing
By right-clicking the channel AUX sends and selecting "Track AUX sends" from the context
menu, the dialog as shown above appears. In this dialog all available AUX busses are
listed. You can enter the intensity of each AUX bus in numeric values, or by moving the
orange bar (the bar is not visible in Off mode).
By default all AUX busses are routed "post" in Samplitude. Activate the corresponding
“pre” box for pre-routing. In the FX routing dialog you can determine the precise position of
the "pre" and "post" AUX busses within the effects chain.
Using the "Pan" button you can use a complete panorama section for every AUX send,
which is analogous to the stereo editor of a track. Thus you can, for example, make a
change to the stereo width or the phase inversion of the AUX send.
New AUX bus: Creates a new AUX bus.
Reset AUX sends: All AUXes are reset to "Not routed".
Significance of the effect processing and signal manipulation
order
The sequence of the effect processing and other manipulations (volume and panorama
automation) often affects the result. Some effects depend on the input signal level.
All dynamics functions and those that remove or reduce noise (Dehisser and noise
reduction) are dependent on the input signal level and, in some cases, on the frequency
response of the input signal. If you have found an optimal setting for the parameters, you
should not apply other changes to effect blocks that precede these types of effects. For
example, use the Ddehisser and the multiband dynamics section in the mix master only
after all other changes have been applied in the individual objects and the mixer channels.
It is therefore important to understand the signal flow in Samplitude. You can change it in
the FX routing dialog.
