  • how do you make a dry audio thingy in the chain list?

  • @lomainzz Just right click and create a new chain in the list. It'll have no effects on it by default.

  • @JumpVector1 lol I'm not gonna do that.  Basically due to the limitations of the audio interface I was using, I used a Zoom H4N offhand as an audio capture device while recording the desktop videos, which is of course a noisy device. My mastering target is YouTube, and the video's purpose is instruction rather than artistic expression, so I decided not to fret about the finer points of sound quality like I normally would for a music track or a professional video, which this is not.

  • One question, how do you add say the same reverb to like 3 different vsts without assigning them to all vsts? like an effect bus? HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @ParanormalDub1997 Solution A. Put all the VSTs into an effect/instrument rack in one track, and put the reverb after the rack.  B. Make a track group and put the reverb into the group bus (at 4:51 in video). C. Right click, create a new "Return" track, put the reverb there and use the send knobs. D. Make an audio track that receives audio from the other VST tracks, and put the reverb there (at 4:40 in video).
