Hi there,
My name is Aleks and this is my very first post here.
I've tried to use the forum's "search" function to find a solution to my problem, but I was unsuccessful and I couldn't solve my problem either after reading carefully the online manual... so, in advance, I'm very sorry if this issue has already been discussed in the past.
A few days ago I switched from Pro Tools (thanks to the lovely $79 "10 Year Anniversary Offer")... I'm a newbie with Mixbus 32C and it seems like I really can't find my way in doing very simple things such as setting up a hardware insert on a track without causing a loop feedback.
I need to do a very quick pre-master reference CD for a friend of mine using my beloved analog hardware. So I started with a new project in Mixbus 32C and imported the tracks.
The soundcard I'm using is a RME UCX hooked to a RME ADI-2 Pro FS (high quality stereo ADDA unit) via SPDIF.
Now, here is the workflow I try to set up :
Stereo track "Port Insert Send/Output" to "hardware" SPDIF L & R -> UCX -> ADI-2 Pro FS (DA) -> Manley Massive Passive -> Manley Variable-Mu -> SSL Six with Portico 5042 (main insert) -> ADI-2 Pro FS (AD) -> UCX -> Stereo track "Port Insert Return/Input" to "hardware" SPDIF L & R
Then I would add a final limiter plug-in insert (Waves L2), before bouncing.
Mixbus' Master/Monitoring output is routing to output 5-6 of the UCX.
This was pretty much what I was doing with Pro Tools, but that workflow doesn't seem to work in Mixbus and it provokes a nasty loop feedback... what am I doing wrong ?
I feel a bit stupid not being able to do that kind of basic stuff and I really need to dig more into the Mixbus environnement to feel more confortable with it, but I'm a bit in a hurry for this project... could someone share a basic hardware insert template I could use ?
I need your help.
Thank you for your attention.
Cheers,
Aleks
