guess I was being dense! Connect the outputs of your audio interface (doesn't matter which ones but let's use 3 & 4) to the inputs on the RNC. which is essentially what you are doing with the RNC patch anyway. If you have to trace something like that down you'll want to do a round trip latency and loop back sync test. If you discover that you have a sync issue, it is probably a global issue that has effected every over dub you have been doing. Your RNC has an analog signal path so everything should be synced just fine. You don't need to worry about any "insert" stuff because that is latency compensation for digital effects and stuff. (I'm assuming you are using the Focusrites monitor outputs for your monitoring.) Hook up the RNC left and right outputs to your Focsurites 5 and 6 inputs. Set the outputs of the "mixdown" track to your Focusrites "Monitor Outputs" a.k.a. I'm going to pick 5 and 6 arbitraily for this example. Set the inputs to a pair on the Focusrite. Now, add a stereo track to your project and call it "mixdown". ![]() Hook up the RNC so the outputs 3 and 4 go to the RNC left right inputs. Set the output of your "master" bus to the Focusrites output 3 and 4. Send all the tracks and buses in your mix to you "master" bus. Here's one example of what you can do: In SONAR set up a Bus you call "master". ![]() They told me I would need to setup the software that came with the AI to route the signal in and out of compressor, then back into AI?ĭoes this sound right to you? Do I insert the external (compressor) insert in the master channel to affect the final mix, do I use a bus or something else?Īpologies for being a bit of an idiot with this, but I am completely new with outboard gear! Someone mentioned to me that because its a digital signal coming from AI and going into an analogue compressor then out again back to digital this would be wrong. I know this may be a stupid question and the answer will be really simple, but when I add it as an external insert in Sonar X2 Producer it doesn't seem to be affecting the sound at all. I have the ins and outs connected to my interface, what I want to do is use it on the final mix. ![]() What am I missing about your question? I still have a pair of these in my rack, they really are very handy! If you've connected the outputs of your interface to the compressor, and you are feeding it stereo material then the channels will track.
