  • Great job explaining. It was a great help to me. Thank you

  • Very direct and understandable

  • Great Vid but I would like to make two points, Firstly I would never use send to vary the amount of effect (although it is possible that you might want one channel to have a little less effect than another), I would drive the effects unit to just below 0db and use the return to vary the amount. Secondly it needs mentioning that it's better to have only the effect or wet signal returned to the mixer as original or dry signal can cause problems when returned to the mix.

  • Nice, straight forward, and no attitude.. very well done.

  • I found this tutorial to extremely well presented, well done,

  • Just like the others say, great teacher.

  • great tutorial!

    the only thing i would have to say is that in live sound, the aux sends are primarily used for monitor mixes with mixes this size.

  • dude you are amazing fast teacher

  • amazing......funny, simple, and clear. This guy rocks.

  • I like this guy! good personality for teaching.

  • use a computer!

  • Could you send the Input of the Effects Return into an Effects Pedal and send that back to the mixer and work like normally?

  • Nice and clear - makes all the knobs less intimidating!!

  • A true teacher. Clear, very informative, and simple.. Finally,- good looking out potna!

  • Thanks, thanks and bless!!

  • is it possible to just use the direct out on a channel to go to a multitrack recorder or is the group bus necessary?

  • either or, depends what works best for you or the project ur doing

  • Do you have a direct out per channel? Or are you referring to the "in/out" AKA "channel insert"? Those are usaully wired for "tip,ring,sleeve" type plugs and used for sending the individual signal to it's own independent processor/EQ/compressor or whatever and then returning to the channel. It's like having an effects loop that only works on each indivdual channel. I would use the busses. Post some songs when you're finished and let me know. I'd like to hear some new original music. Peace

  • You can still use the insert to send to the multitrack. It will likely be pre-fader, so no problem accidentally bumping the fader while recording. The insert will also likely be pre-eq, so you can play with eq settings on the return. Unfortunately, the line will be unbalanced, and therefore a little noisier than balanced bus outputs.

    Using buses to get to the multitrack instead, your fader and eq moves will be committed to the recording. That could be a bad thing or used to your advantage.

  • yes

  • a bus is like a 'zone'

  • Excellent video! Was exactly what i was looking for. Cheers!
