3 – Auxiliary processing (AUX 1 – AUX 2)
We gave the possibility to the final user to go even more “deeply into the hole” with two full stereo
auxiliary loops. These two loops (processors) can be fed by the returns of each one of the three main
parallel processors (FX1/2/3), or even by dedicated internal dry signal coming out of L3.
Doing this way, the mixer can be configured into two different modes (without touching a cable!):
●
5 parallels: five full stereo processors can be placed in parallel, one to each other;
●
3 + 2 (dual mode): three full stereo processors, connected in parallel one to each other, can be
also placed into other two other stereo processors, connected in parallel one to each other as
well.
Again, you can switch from these two modes in real time, by selecting them from the front panel and
without touching any cable.
What are the advantages of using AUX processing?
Well, they’re multiple. Most of the iconic sounds back in the days were obtained by placing one
particular devices into another, and not in parallel. By upping the game, also group of effects in parallel
to each other were placed in series into another group of effects.
This is also a very creative processing. Let’s talk about a stereo delay and a stereo reverb for example.
What’s the most correct way to wire them? The most correct answer is to wire them in parallel, since
they are both time based effect, so their processing should start from the same exact moment. But,
why not to be a little more creative? Why, for example, to hear the reverb coming only on delay repeats
and not on dry signal, giving a wired sense of space and depth?
Let’s try to configure this, by having:
•
Our standard dry signal;
•
Stereo Delay into FX1;
•
Stereo Reverb into AUX1.
What can I do from now?
Well, by always keeping our dry signal active (DRY), we can procced in two different ways:
DELAY // REVERB:
§
We turn on DRY button (we let the dry signal coming to the speakers);
§
we turn FX1 button on (we activate the parallel send to our delay devices);
§
we turn AUX1 button on and we increase AUX1 pot near corresponding DRY button (we’re
sending the dry signal into reverb, for a parallel processing, like we’ve done for FX1)
What I should expect to hear? A nice regular ambient, where delay’s repeats and reverb’s reflections
start from the exact same time, give us an all around classis space.
DELAY -> REVERB:
§
We turn on DRY button (we let the dry signal coming to the speakers);
§
we turn FX1 button on (we activate the parallel send to our delay devices);
§
we turn AUX1 and we increase AUX1 pot near corresponding FX1 button (we’re sending the
output of delayed signal into reverb, for a two stages serial processing).
