Re: effective mobius,mixer and soundcard routing

["L.Angulo" <labaloops@yahoo.com>]

Thanx kevin,yes this is the way ive always routed my EDps with a hardware 
mixer,aux send to edp and out to a channel.Actually this is the way i 
cnnected my soundcard right away as soon as i got it but i was getting 
weird oscilating and noise results and i figured out it was because i had 
to turn all the faders down the software mixer,in other words i was using 
2 mixers at the same time.It sounds great now!
However i am still not completely satisfied because there is a soundcard 
to connect,a hardware mixer and a laptop to worry about,compared to my 
hardware setup i still dont see many advantages to this(setup time wise) 
except for the felxiblity of mobius and software/soundcard pristine sound 
quality.
