Using External Sends & Returns
An External Send/Return
breaks
the signal at the insert point and sends it out to the
selected external destination such as a compressor, a stereo effect processor or any other
audio device. Any physical input or output can be used.
To Insert an External Signal Processing Device:
1.
Right-click on the insert chain and select the
Insert Send/Return
(Physical Output
and Input). The popup dialog box shown above appears.
2.
Select the output and input you wish to use.
3.
Connect your external audio gear to the appropriate analog or digital connectors.
4.
If you’re using the analog outputs and inputs, you may have to adjust the levels in
the I/O Session Settings.
See page 31.
You can insert a level meter after the Send/
Return to make sure you’re getting a strong signal back from the external device.
5.
If you’re using a digital Send/Return, make sure that the external digital device is
synchronized to the digital input. Otherwise, poor audio quality will result.
(Alternatively, you can synchronize PatchMix DSP to your external device in the System
Session Settings.
See page 30.
