I have already mastered my VDAT tracks so no effects will be needed. So my B2003 will go right to MCCY's Satteq Wide, to the A16U, and VDAT direct to the Destination Module / A16 Ultra. The live vocals will use the AUX's and also Nuetron's ADT for the unison effect on the Chorus and Bridge sections, but will also be serialized. The AUX's can be bled over to an all AUX mix which seems to have no delay this way.
Since we will be recording live for the sake of rehearsals, naturally I want the best I quality I can achieve.
I can use SpaceF's FB5's valve that are built in to each channel, as they seem to add no delay, and the sound is to die for when I use it on synths or my ASIO 2 sends from Bidule.
Serializing the effects is definately the way to go when I get XITE-1, the summing of all sends into my cabinets have a better definition. I am glad I stumbled upon this.
If I were to replace my PL2404 sometime in the future, I will most definately get the Crest or S100 from Oram / Trident. They are the best rack solutions I have seen.
It seems to boil down to less effect, is better, and don't use more than one channel insert effect unless the added delays are to your liking.
If there is an abundance of leftover DSP power, I want my money's worth, so maybe even 96k. Hopefully this won't require re mastering the VDAT drums and vocals.
I must say, even though I have to create a few work arounds to get the quality I want, this live way of using Scope is by far the best sounding option besides thousands of dollars of hardware mixers, and outboard effects. Like around 25 Large !! This is all inside of an 8U SKB rack. Add the back saving work of tearing down a hardware rig every night and listening to whiny singers...................This is the only choice.
