Hi Everyone, Totally new here :) but its a powerful source of ...just stuff :)
I have a serious hunt to see if anything can shed light on the problem, but Maybe I'm just wording it wrong?

Just got the desk set up today, everything is running fine, as a FOH desk

Now I have tried it as a Recording desk, and once again nearly everything has worked except... how the inputs sound in Adobe Audition.
They are totally raw! I have added gates, bit of compression blah blah to each of the channels im running, and you can see the gates active on the desk, but when recorded into Adobe its raw, no effects, gates etc, so I'm sure this must be an easy fix but I cant figure it out :(

I know ideally you may want that signal clean, but the gates are really the important part just for the drums

so any help here would be appreciated :)

Cheers
Glen

the only way I have been able to print eq / comp / gate to a daw is by using the p16 bus.... Only 16 channels but works perfect.

Generally you would want the original tracks raw. You can do all that eq and dynamics processing in post. There is no fixing a track that has already been screwed up in recording.

Really appreciate the reply guys :) dead right about leaving the sign ale clean but to get the gates working I would be happy with and a little EQ, basically using the channel strip and nothing else to influence the sound
but I just can't get my head around this at all
if I could get a little explanation OR a little walk through to process would help massively :)
cheers everyone

Glen, the channel direct outputs "pick off point" is before the gates, compressors or EQ.

Apologies if this comes up twice :)
hi Tim, can this be changed to after the gates etc?
cheers

Dear Glen,The X32 is configured to send all signals to your computer before all processing. This is typically desired as you often use different processing in live situations that you wouldn’t want to stuck with in the recording, as with multitrack you can always add it in afterwards.

If you do need to record the channel strip processing, you can do so with some routing changes on the console:


  1. Go to the “Card Out” page of the ROUTING menu, and change the first column to “P16 1-8”. If you want to do this with 16 channels, also change column 2 to “P16 9-16"
  2. Go to the “P16 Out” page of the ROUTING menu. Select “P16 Out 01” and choose “DirOut Ch 01” for “Output Signal” (should be set by default). For “Tap”, choose PreFdr (this option will include all EQ and dynamics processing).
  3. Select “P16 Out 02” and choose “DirOut Ch 02” for “Output Signal” (should be set by default). For “Tap”, choose PreFdr (this option will include all EQ and dynamics processing).
  4. Repeat step 3 for the remaining outputs, up to 16 channels (Output 3 to Dir Out Ch 3, Output 4 to Dir Out Ch 4, and so on).

Hope it helps!
