Kris, here are some more useful points: You may want to carry out your recording in separate stems rather than having all crammed into the same stereo file. The reason for this is of course that you will be able to line up the stems in a mixer and mix them for better sound and musicality. Like for example separating the dry guitar sound and the effects will let you find the perfect balance for that when mixing, even varying the dry/wet balance through out the tune. The way to record this way is almost the same as the other method but instead of fetching source input from the Master you fetch source inputs from Return Tracks. Create as many Return Tracks as the number of stems you want to separate your recording in and then simply use the effect send of the playing tracks to send signal to the appropriate Return Track (stem).
