Question Regarding Outputs
Periodically I do cover versions of songs, and I begin by importing the "original" into PT to use as a reference. Once I am near completion of my own version, I've of course inserted numerous compressors, EQ's etc. on the Master Fader. At that point, in order to make a comparison between the original version and my own, I have to individually bypass each plug-in on the Master Fader in order to hear the original version without the additional processing. I know I can't have two Master Faders with the same output (one with processing and one without), as PT won't allow this.
I'd appreciate any suggestions about an easy way to toggle back and forth. Thanks! |

Re: Question Regarding Outputs
Instead of assigning all your tracks directly to the output 1-2, use a buss as a "stereo buss" and assign that to output 1-2. This allows you to import a track and assign it directly to the "mains" and it won't have your plugs on it. This has the added benefit of giving you pre fader inserts on the "stereo buss" which master faders do not have.

Dmazureks bussing technique is both effective and practical, whether for this specific function or many, many more. I don't know any "top shelf" mixers who do not employ this. good luck.. SB |
