I have been playing around using the QU-16 for recordings the past weekend and couldn’t find a good way to record the effects on a separate channel from the original source…
What I wanted to do was basically to record a channel to a track with the internal desk effects on a separate track in my daw.
I found a way to record them separate by using a separate mix as my master mix out to my listening monitors.
Step.1 connect your monitors to 5-6 out.
Step.2 put down all faders on your LR mix layer.
Step.3 set your FX to pre fader
Step.4 put up FX1 & FX2 send and returns to 0 in your LR layer (if you have FX 3 and 4 routed to mix1 and mix 2 put up them as well.
Step.5 Put up your master level for Mix5-6
Enter your DAW and do the following set up.
Step.1 Create tracks for all audio inputs 1-24
1-20 will stream the tracks from your input to tracks.
23-24 will stream your FX signal.
Set your DAW to send its master signal to 21-22 out.
Enter the mix layer 5-6 on your desk, switch to layer two, select ST3 and hit the USB button (on the Preamp column) Put up the fader to 0.
So your monitor layer is now Mix5-6, Everything you put up in Mix5-6 will go straight out to your monitors…
You record your dry channels on separate ins and your internal desk FX on 23-24 in your DAW.
You playback things from your DAW on ST3 in the Mix5-6 layer. Or of course on any other wanted channel as well, just hit the USB button for a channel on the desk and set the same output in your DAW.
Now to my request… I would like to be able to route the FX to different USB-outputs. Or maybe a route possibility to route all channels on the desk to wanted USB channels…
