Hi there, I am new to the mixing world. When I apply FX to my vocal track, I can hear it from the main L/R; but no matter what I do, I cannot get it to the monitor through Out1. I uploaded 2 snips showing my set up. Can any one help me please?
If Out1 is configured as “post fader” (in config->Outputs->Out1) the signal send from FX1 to Out1 is influenced by both the fader from FX1 to Out1 AND the fader from FX1 to MainLR. If the latter is not raised, you won’t here anything. In other words: With the “post fader” setting you can only apply FX to Out1 if you also apply it to MainLR.
If you set Out1 to “pre fader” you should be able to sent FX to that Output without sending it to MainLR.
One more thing: The Send from Inputs to FX is ALWAYS post-fader on the CQ. That means signal is only send from the input to the FX if BOTH the channel fader (sending to MainLR) and the send fader to the FX are raised. If you only send signal from the input to Out1 but not to MainLR, no signal will be sent to the FX unit.
That’s it! I switched to Post Fader and now I can apply FX to Out1. Thank you so much!
