Audient ASP8024 HERITAGE EDITION - Foldback; Tracking with Effects

40
Foldback
You can use ASP8024-HE’s two Cue Mixes, to allow musicians to hear the live input and click/guide
tracks from your session. To bring a click/guide track onto the console, it needs to be sent to the
DAW/Tape Returns on a channel (or multiple channels). This brings the signal onto the LF path of
that channel. To help keep your session easy to navigate, it is recommended that you keep the
guide tracks separate from the recording channels (e.g. bring them in on the last channels on the
console).
To send the click/guide track, turn up the Cue Mix knobs on the channels you want to send. The
Cue Mix knobs default to the LF path, so to send the live input to the artist, make sure the SF button
is engaged next to the Cue mix knobs. Use the Cue Mix Solo button found on the Master Section to
monitor what will be sent to the artist, and then ensure the Cue Mix Master is turned up.
The Cue Mix can be routed to the Foldback Output using the “Live Room and Foldback Section” of
the Master Section. Press the Cue buttons under Foldback 1 to assign the Cue Mix to the Foldback
Output. It is possible to create a stereo foldback signal using the two cue mixes, using Cue A as the
left channel, and Cue B as the right channel.
Tracking with Eects
When tracking, it is possible to make use of the console EQ as well as using Channel Inserts,
allowing you to commit eects as you record. To insert a piece of equipment, press the Insert Active
button in the Mic/Line section of the channel strip.
For EQ, ensure that the SF and IN buttons are engaged on the EQ band that you want to use. It is
possible to split the Shelf and Parametric EQs between the Long and Short Faders by sending only
one to the SF path.
