Apollo Thunderbolt Software Manual Console Reference 98
Aux Returns
Aux Overview
Console has two stereo aux (auxiliary) mix buses. Signals are sent
to the aux buses via the aux sends in Console’s channel input
strips. Console’s aux returns are used to control and process the
signals that are received from those sends.
The controls in Console’s aux return strips are similar to the
channel input strips, but instead of controlling a channel input,
they control the output of the aux mix bus. Both stereo aux returns
have four plug-in inserts for Realtime UAD Processing.
The aux sends can be post-fader and post-mute (channel faders
must be raised and un-muted to be routed to the aux bus, and the
send levels will reflect channel fader changes), or pre-fader and
pre-mute (channel faders and mutes do not affect the aux bus).
The aux buses in Console are designed primarily for send/return
processing using UAD plug-ins. Using aux buses for effects is a
great way to conserve UAD resources. For example, by using an
aux for reverb processing, only one reverb plug-in is needed on the
aux return instead of putting a reverb plug-in on each individual
channel.
Show Aux Returns
By default, the aux returns are not visible. To show the aux
returns, enable the AUX switch in the SHOW section of the
monitor column.

Aux Notes
• Aux 2 is unavailable at sample rates of 176.4 kHz and 192 kHz.
• The outputs of the aux buses have 32 samples of additional latency compared to
the monitor outputs. This is necessary to maintain the lowest possible latency for
the dry signals.
