Re: Gibson EDP/Allen&Heath Mixwizard question



Hey Andy,

I spoke too soon. It works, however after I put down the original  
loop, any overdubbing comes out extremely thin (EQ wise) the volume is  
there, but it sounds like all of the mids and highs are turned to 10.

I turned off all of the internal effects etc., and tried a couple of  
the other aux channels, but no luck.

Close but yet so far.

Todd
