Re: Stereo Effects & EDP

["mark francombe" <mark_francombe@hotmail.com>]

A very simerlar setup to me Mark, but its kind of annoying that i have to
dedicate certain effects to the Repeaters FX loop and then not  have them
available for NON loop material, thinking now of using the Repeater 4
channel-out option to my desk, but suspect that i will get into a right old
mess with pre fade and post fade issues. Does anyone make a mixer where the
Aux sends are neither Pre or Post but operate more like a DJ mix fader,
IE:one end completely dry, one end completely wet, but main fader operating
as per usual with Vol...

Suggested it before and it went down like a lead balloon, but would like to
see in diagrammatical form, the routing/setups of peoples rigs... Using
Microsoft Visio we could all make simerlar drawing that would be very usful
for the archives methinks,
