Individual FX-send to fader?

Is it possible to assign individual send to faders?

What I want to do is to have two delays and two reverbs to lead vocals and chanege their levels very fast from a song part to another. And same time change dirty voc to clens. That’s impossible via menu-surfing. Do not want to do this via scenes etc as levels dirref very mauch according to space.

Done this with Yamaha (QL/CL) using 3rd party MIDI-controller, probably would work with A&H as well, but could be nice to have this feature inside the console.

wich Qu? what you mean with individual?

btw… no menu surfing involved… I don’t get it

maybe you should read the manual first

Did read the manual, did not find the answer. I want to have my four fx-sends (2 x dly, 2 x rev) of lead vox on surface all the time. Asked for SQ, but why not in other product lines as well :wink:

wich QU?
QU-16 has only two dedicated FX sends
QU-SB and QU-PACK have no faders at all

and no it’s not possible
I guess you play an instrument at the same time…

on SQ you have the possibility to select a channel and then press “CH to All Mix” button and now you have all your mixes to that channel on the surface…
but you have to hold the button…for this mode… and this has reasons…
we don’t wont to change that behaviour just to fit your need and make the live for all others much harder

I think I mentioned that I want to make adjustments in FX-sends AND channels at very same moment. Dirty voc down, clean voc up, short delay down, lond delay and reverb up…

I think it should not be a big issue (at least in programming point of view) to make individual sends possible to assign them to faders. As well as any parameter f ex to user knobs. Of course it’s possible that the basic arcitechture of the operating system limits this possibility.

And my question was: If this is possible? I assumed not as there was no mention in manual.

And I messed the product line, what i meant was SQ-series.

You can assign the fx send/return faders to your custom layer, placing them right next to the vocal channel fader.

thats not what he wants to do

This is exactly, what I’ve done, but I do not want to adjust the fx send/ret masters, but the sends of (one) individual channel :wink:

and still this is not possible

this would break up the conceps of the console itself… this will make the Mix buttons useless and would introduce uncommon behaviour
we already discussed this earlier this year

and there where suggestions from different users as work arounds

try to search…

Does the answer given in the SQ section by https://community.allen-heath.com/members/mfk0815/
Work for you?

@Pidermite

WHICH QU are you using ?

The manual is difficult to find information in for sure.
Almost always the info is in there somewhere, but NOT all the time, and often when it is there it is hard to find as there is no index nor cross reference but merely a TOC which is far short of a true index for usefulness.

Pls try to rephrase the question and be more specific and complete.
I do not see the problem you seem to have.
We use a Qu32 so again which Qu do you use and exactly what is your real problem.

Or do you really have an SQ? Same question comes up in both forums.
There was an answer there although the link from above does not seem to go to the question or answer.

It seems like he has an SQ.

I was certain I posted a response here how to do crude work around to do what he wants to
do on a QU mixer and how to use all four FX slots on a QU16.

@MikeC

I saw some responses in the SQ discussion.
But Marks link went to Klaus’ info page not the message.

Not sure how I did that, sorry.

but if this is no better, it’s the 3rd post in the thread “Individual FX-send to fader?”

What I had posted or though I had for a QU work around
was splitting the needed input channels either with Y cables or if using a
stage doing the split at the routing.

One channel of the split would be the dry channel going to the main LR mix and
feeding any monitor mixes.

The other channel or channels of the split would be unassigned from the main mix.
Bring up the needed FX sends on those channels, with the FX sends post fade they
would be controlled on the main mix surface layer or assigned in the custom layer.

Edit…Ok that’s about what Mark posted on the SQ forum.

Yep. Using the custom layer on Qu (and obviously SQ too) you could also add a DCA to give an overall volume for all those split channels if that would be useful.

Yeah, this might do the job. Actually can use with Yamaha-system as well :wink:

ThanX

I am confused. Do you want to do this with the OU or the SQ?
And you know that the named Yamaha consoles are more in the league of the avantis and dLive?

The same method would work on both consoles as well as with Yamahas. And why not actually in allmost any brand.

Sorry for double posting, made the first post on wrong forum but did not want to remove it as there were allready answers.

SQ is the one’ I might have nexr spring tour (if it ever happens…)

…and mentioned Yamahas just because they are the ones I use most as our company has them.

The answer to my solution showed nicely how things can be figured out by talking bout them. In this case I just stucked with my mind to possibility to have the exact command on the fader but the solution was kind of detour. There are slight things to take care with, like if I want to have the same sound to FX send I must gang or group the channels. Of course this solution also give the possibility to send totally different sound to delay, like having highs and lows allready cut of in send or even something more extreme like sending distorted/flanged/what ever to fx…
