2-BUS+ : Routing Scenario
15. ROUTING IN PRO TOOLS (ONE OF MANY OPTIONS)
[SCREEN SHOT OF PRO TOOLS 11 ROUTING PICTURED ABOVE]
For this example, we assume you’ve wired 16 analog outputs from your interface or D/A converter into the 16 inputs of the 2-BUS+, the
stereo MONITOR OUTS to a balanced input on your monitor controller (not directly to your speakers), the stereo MAIN OUTS back into your
DAW interface and sent the digital output to your monitor controller for the final mix. (Refer to the wiring diagram ahead).
Next, open your DAW and create 8 stereo aux tracks that correspond to their associated outputs. In other words, Aux 1-2 has Analog 1-2
of your interface as its output, and internal buss 1-2 as its input. Subsequent busses follow the same pattern (see picture above). You can
name these aux tracks once you know what you will be sending to them (i.e. Drum Buss, Background Vocals, Effects, etc).
Assign tracks from your session to these busses according to how you would like to split up your stems (i.e. all guitar tracks are bussed to
3-4, all percussion tracks are bussed to 5-6). For important mono tracks such as kick drum, snare drum, lead vocal, or bass guitar, you can
utilize the mono buttons on the 2-BUS+ by sending these tracks to buss 1, 2, 9, or 10.
Note the return to your DAW (in this example 17-18) is on an AUX because you may want to instantiate a plug-in here. That AUX is assigned
to the stereo track named “Mixdown”. This will be your final printed master.
