[QUOTE="Jim Schmidtke, post: 66900, member: 1844"] re: X32 Discussion Rob, Here's the way we do it: We route all 32 channels of the console to the card outputs (feeding the DAW). We route card inputs 1-4 (from the DAW) to the first 4 AUX inputs. We link the first two Aux inputs as a stereo pair. We assign the DAW main L & R output to card 1 & 2 (feeds console AUX 1 & 2 inputs) We assign the DAW metronome to card 3 (feeds console Aux 3 input) All of the above routing always stays the same. We never have to change it. So first, lets say we record the rhythm section (up to 32 tracks at once). We bring up all the channels being recorded (as well as AUX 3 if the band needs to hear the DAW metronome). Next, using the DAW, we rough mix the rhythm section tracks. When we're ready to do overdubs, we bring up the AUX 1/2 stereo pair (from the DAW main L & R) and the channel(s) we're using for the overdubs. Put another way, we only use the console for recording and developing headphone mixes. We never use it for mixing down recorded tracks. We only use the DAW for that. Again, this is only the way we do it. For sure it's not the only way. Hope this helps. -Jim [/QUOTE]
