SFP Recording project

Hello all.

Been wondering what does your recording project in SFP looks like..

i work with SX2, my recording project looks something like this:

Z-Link Source (8 inputs) -> ASIO2 DEST
ASIO2 SOURCE (Stereo pair) -> LUNA2 ANALOG OUT

no use of the SFP mixer...

How do u guys work? do u run everything through the SFP mixer first and then to cubase?

i'd love to hear some of your techniques.

if you use a mixer and monitor off the mixer, you have a zero latency system as far as overdubs go....

using a mixer is good. you are able to tweak your sound on the way in with scope tools, and as garyb said, no latency. You'll have to global disable monitoring in cubase.

many of us here use our seq as a multitrack tapedeck and do everything else in SFP.

are you recording 8 tracks at once?

Yes sure!
My sampler is connector (all 8 analog outs) to my a16 ultra inputs 1-8. This goes in to Luna through Z-Link.

I seperate each sound on the sampler to its' own output and can process each sounds individually in SX.

And if you are monitoring through SFP then u lose all power of VST plugins (realtime monitoring with VST FX)

As a 3 DSP Card user i can't load enough effects in SCOPE i mostly use the VST effects.

hi
i use to start with a project like this
8 asio2 (stereo)
8 z-link (mono)
8 adat (mono)
......into mixer (eg STM1632)

Then i use eg 5 asio2 dest, witch i connect/disconnect to what i need then for.
sometimes directly from z-link source, but most often from a mixer source.

"I seperate each sound on the sampler to its' own output and can process each sounds individually in SX."
Now you can assign each to a seperat asio2 source, and hear them with the effect you want, VST and/or SFP.

"And if you are monitoring through SFP then u lose all power of VST plugins (realtime monitoring with VST FX)" no

"As a 3 DSP Card user i can't load enough effects in SCOPE i mostly use the VST effects."
Thrue, but you can use both, or even record in stages, if needed.
