Re: Gibson EDP/Allen&Heath Mixwizard question

Hi Todd,

Firstly, let's assume that you're using the EDP on a send other than
Aux 5, which you also say is an internal fx send.

The whole secret is that you don't *need* to use an input intended for
fx return  to bring an fx back into the mixer.
Bring them back on a regular channel, and then you can do any additional
routing with ease


For full flexibility you need to route the Mixer's FX out of the mixer,
and bring them back on a regular fx channel. 
I don't know your specific mixer, so I can't tell you if that's
possible.
However, if the internal fx has a send to a particular Aux then just 
put the EDP on that Aux and you're sorted.


If the internal fx only go to the main output and nowhere else
then your only option is to bring the EDP back on Channel 3
and add your fx onto the dry audio in the looper, that's not
going to get the exact sound you want in the case that you're looping
both guitar and voice, but then it's the best you're gonna get.
