Adding Appropriate Processors In Insert Mode

September 27, 2007

In my project I have used 2 processors: The EQ eight and the Redux. Both of them have been inserted into the master channel as the I want to use them on a number of different scenes and thought it would be easier to put them on everything then trigger them live when I want to use them, and the types of processors I will be using will be appropriate to all types of audio, (unlike say the beat repeat effect which is too much for some complex music tracks but effective on acapella’s). The processors can be dragged to the top of individual tracks in the same way.

  • I chose the processor, in this case the EQ eight in the audio effects section in the file browser
  • I clicked and dragged this over to the top of the master channel then dropped it into the box at the bottom. The EQ is now loaded
  • I now chose a preset I wanted to put into the EQ. I chose cheesy speaker after going through most of them, as I thought it was an appropriate sound to drop out and when you turn the processor back off it really gives it a kick
  • To give it some final adjustments I changed the filter to high cuts, which cuts frequency above a specified level and adjusted the frequency till I liked the sound of it.
  • I assigned a key to the on and off button of the processor so I could try it throughout the set easily and see where it would fit.
