You can also bounce a submix to disk to free up
the voices for use by other tracks. See
Chapter 43, “Mixdown” for more information.
Send and Return Submixing for Effects
Processing
When you are submixing for reverb, delay, and
similar effects processing, use sends to achieve
traditional send/return bussing. You can use a
real-time plug-in or a hardware insert as a shared
resource for all tracks included in a submix. The
wet/dry balance in the mix can be controlled us-
ing the track faders (dry level) and Auxiliary In-
put fader (effect return, or wet, level).
To create an effects return submix with a plug-in or
hardware insert:
1
Assign each track’s main output to your main
mix outputs.
2
On the source tracks, assign a send (mono or
stereo) and select a mono or stereo bus path
from the Send selector. Configure the sends for
pre- or post-fader, as needed.
3
Choose Track > New .
4
Specify the track type (
Aux Input
) and format
(
stereo
), then click
Create
.
5
From the Auxiliary Input track’s Input Path se-
lector, select the send bus path.
6
Solo safe the track so that if you solo another
track that uses the effects send, you won’t mute
the effects return (see “Solo Safe Mode” on
page 191).
7
Assign a plug-in or hardware insert on the
Auxiliary Input.
8
Set the effect to “100% wet,” and set any other
controls.
9
From the Auxiliary Input track’s Output Path
selector, select an output path (main outputs).
Adjust the individual track faders to balance the
dry (unprocessed) tracks. With the send set to
pre-fader, the amount of effect is controlled by
the level of the Send Level fader or the Auxiliary
Input Volume fader. If the send is post-fader, the
Send Level fader follows volume level.
See Chapter 41, “Plug-in and Hardware In-
serts” for more information.
