interesting...
meaning that one only records the wet signal?

When I was making music in a full hardware studio, I had FX units, the Eventide Eclipse, Lexicon MPX-1 and a Lexicon MPX-100. 3 different reverbs were enough for the breakbeat tunes I was making in 2003, but the Eventide's algorithms were proper lush. So I would make a synth patch on my good ol' Doepfer/Analog Systems modular, put that through the Eventide or MPX-1, added FX and reverbs and when the time came to use different FX (and different synth part...the Doepfer/A.Sys modular is monotimbral, mono and has no memory), I would record as audio the dry synth sound, then record as audio the returns from the FX outboard and mix the dry and FX/return audio channels in Logic.
Working like that was pretty time consuming, but it was the most flexible way for the mixdown + I had just the returns channels to reverse, stretch sidechain the fuck out of...etc.

Yea this sounds like a good idea=)
But how can I do it?
Can someone explain in technical terms how a do this in for example cubase sx 3 with Virus TI?
Thanks,.. |

Hi all TI geeks out there=)
I just wonder...when i have finished my track and want to do the final mix and all...how do I do if i have like 7 different synths on the TI.
I can add Reverb and delays n stuff(FXs) from the TI i know..But if i want to use external EQ to the different synthlines..Do you bounce the trax? Cause Its only possible to use three different trax for mixing...hmm
So would be grateful for some hints here...whats your routine?
thx Peace!

Ok man, this is how u do it: U have 3 audio from the usb in the Ti Control and then connect the Virus 3 stereo(6mono) outs to ur soundcard, select in the TI control the 3 physical audios and u got 6 simultaneous channels to put eq on  I think 6 is good enough!  |

If you have Ableton (using the Snow as an example) you can set two channels to USB(x) L and USB(x) R, put a Utility plugin on those audio output channels with "mono" turned on, and get 2 stereo outs and 2 mono outs using all 4 midi channels and only 3 USB outs.

not really easy workflow but i would do that too,in my experience the more close to the source in the processing chain(if not on the source itself )you fix problems the best it is ,(fxs,distortions... everyhting should sound better with a clean source but sometimes it s not true) |

In Ableton you can render them both at once, on separate tracks, in realtime.
You don't even have to stop and start the audio to record. |
