You can choose to use the EQ on your desk, or go to an analog compressor via an insert on your desk, or plug fx inline, using the inserts. The magic of mixbus is mostly in the summing of the buses. (e.g direct outs from the desk) which I think you have. Having a setup like yours is infinitely flexible, providing you can come in on a channel and back out. It's a lot of work but it will give you a sound that no one else can touch. It's layers of mixers and only limited by your needs and imagination. You will be amazed at how good it can sound. This covers up allot of digital plugin sins. Bring the guitars and keys out to your console and send them out to amps mic them up and you now have a live band playing into your master mix. Mix the rest of your drums through a mixbus stereo out to your console. Do the same with your bass and lead vocal. This way you have real "tape" in your mix. Push them ahead in time to match the delay thru the tape machine. I would for instance mix the bass drum and the snare together (assign to the same output at the bottom of the module) go out to a track of a tape machine and then into the console. I call it hybrid mixing, the best of both worlds. You can also on a mac open another instance of mixbus (in terminal window (open -n -a "mixbus")) and record your mix into that. This way everything is in sync and you can punch in on your mix. I would normally use the mixbus main outs to listen to the analogue console return, (the mix). Then you go from your console back through the converters and back on to 2 tracks so that your mastermix is included in your session. This also gives you the option of using any of the mix functions of the interface you have, eq compression etc. The same thing can be done with the main out. You can come out one at a time through your interface or with some tracks mix them through the group busses (mix busses) and out to a couple of faders or aux returns on your console. I've used mixbus this way for many years. ![]()
