Hi there, I've made a search around here and all over the net and I'm still having doubts about how to connect my gear to the patchbay.
I have the following hear:
- Akai eie pro (which I use as a mic pre, I don't have a mic pre). It has 4 mics inputs, 4 TRS outputs and 4 TRS insert jacks.
- I use reaper DAW.
- Tc electronics 2290 delay (it has 1 input and 2 outputs L&R)
- Tc electronics 1210 chorus/flanger (it has 2 inputs and 2 outputs)
- dbx 160a compressor (1 input and 1 output)
- lexicon PCM 90 with expanded memory for more fx (it has 2 inputs and 2 outputs)
I've send a question on Eie forum about how to add this external gear, and they suggested me to buy a patchbay.
I've read about the outs are on the top and the in are the bottom jacks. I've also understood about the three types of conection my patch bay has (normalled, half normalled and throu).
My question is how to connect all this gear to the patch bay.
My idea is to record my guitar tracks with some compression (dbx 160a) in a track (sometimes I want to compress a recorded track into another track for e.g. To add compression to the whole song). Then I want to run that track (dry only with compression), process it with my external fx gear and record it in another track.
They suggested me to connect the mic in the EIE input, outputs 1 and 2 to my studio monitors, dbx compressor into insert1 Jack; eie outputs 3&4 to external fx and then go back to EIE inputs 3&4. Create a bus in reaper to send the dry track to be processed by external fx units and record it in a wet track.
I'm a bit confused on how to connect all these gear in the right way to get the results into the patch bay (I could do it great without the patchbay, but it's not a flexible way.
I'll be really thanks if someone could help me.
