Preparing for the tutorial
This tutorial assumes that you have followed the instructions in Chapter 1 (Installation and Setup), and have therefore installed and
- One channel input (‘line in’), output (‘channel out’) and DAW return (the tutorial refers to Channel 16, but any will do).
- One insert (‘device’) send and return (the tutorial refers to Insert 1, but any will do).
- One FX send with stereo return (the tutorial refers to FX3, but any will do).
- Your main monitors and engineer’s headphones.
You will also need to create a session in your DAW with at least one audio track with its input and output assigned to the channel
you are using for this tutorial. Name this channel
Test.
Each step of this tutorial also presumes that your Matrix is in the state it would be if all the previous steps had been accurately
followed, and that no other buttons have been pressed in the process. If the desk doesn’t respond in the way described, please
review the previous steps as well as these preparatory instructions.
The tutorial will presume that you are using channel 16, simply because it is close to the centre section. If your setup requires
you to use a different channel, then that will work equally well. We also suggest that you create some obvious signal processing
for both the insert (an EQ with extreme settings, for example), and the FX send (a huge reverb, for example). Once again, we
will presume you have connected up DEVICE SEND and RETURN 1 and FX 3 (returning on Stereo Return 3), but if your setup
requires you to use different connections, then that will work equally well.
