+1 on what cgarges wrote. i have most of the master section on my ghost up on the patchbay. sometimes the patch points get dirty and cause problems like what you mention, but if you're going direct in...i dunno. it should work. most of the time i have whichever 2channel compressor i use patched up t...

I've got an API 16ch Line mixer for sale or trade. I'd like to get 5k(obo) or trade for some sort of awesome reverb box like a bricasti or a lexicon 480l. this unit sounds AMAZING and compared to most line mixers it gives you more options than the rest. you get panning, 2aux sends, input select, mut...

i think by now the word 'stereo' means you gotta use 2mics minimum(or2tracks). i often hear of people tracking a guitar amp with two mics and calling that stereo. from what i recall stereo originally came from greek land and meant something along the line of 'solid' and 'three dimensional'. that bei...
