important part inside Ardour itself. Examples of using routing inside Ardour
include routing audio from tracks to the <em>Master</em> bus or to other busses,
creating &lsquo;sends&rsquo;, routing the outputs from busses to the <em>Master</em> bus, etc. (see
chapter on <strong>Creating a Track</strong> for an explanation of tracks and busses). All
routing, both internal and external to Ardour, is handled by JACK.</p><h3 id=routing-in-ardour>Routing in Ardour</h3><p>The standard routing of inputs, tracks and busses in Ardour is determined when
a new session is created in the <em>Advanced Options</em> of the <em>New Session</em> dialog
box (see the <a href=../../getting-started/starting-ardour-on-ubuntu/>Starting Ardour</a>
page). By default, the routing is as follows:</p><ul><li>The audio device inputs are routed to the track inputs.</li><li>All outputs from tracks and busses are routed to the master bus inputs.</li><li>The <em>Master</em> bus outputs are routed to the audio device outputs.</li></ul><p>Note that when a new bus is created, nothing is routed to its input.</p><p>This routing setup makes sense for sessions containing only tracks, but to make
use of any busses (other than the <em>Master</em> bus) or to get creative with the
paths of the audio signals inside Ardour, we need to be able to change the
routing.</p><p>The <em>Audio Connection Manager</em> window (also known as the patchbay) is the main
way to make connections to, from ,and within Ardour&rsquo;s mixer. You can open this
window with the shortcut <strong>Alt + P</strong>, or through the
<code>Window > Audio Connections</code> menu.</p><p><figure><img src=en/ardour7-audio-connections-in-menu.png alt="Audio Connection Manager"></figure> </p><p>The patchbay presents two groups of ports; one set of sources, and one of
destinations. Sources and destinations are organized by tabs. The available
sources are displayed vertically on the left side, and the destinations are
displayed horizontally at the bottom.</p><p>In the screenshot below, notice that the <em>Hardware</em> tab is selected on the top
left (that&rsquo;s a source), and the <em><em>Ardour Tracks</em></em> is selected as a destination
in the bottom. This means that the matrix you see displays connections from
available hardware sound sources (for example, a microphone), into existing
Ardour tracks. </p><p><figure><img src=en/ardour7-audio-connection-manager-1.png alt="ACM 1"></figure> </p><p>The green dots represent a connection. The screenshot above tells us that
incoming sounds from <em>capture_1</em> (the first input source of your soundcard, or
the built-in microphone of your laptop) are going into Ardour track named <em>Audio
1</em>, and also that incoming sounds from <em>capture_2</em> are going into input of
Ardour track named <em>Audio 2</em>.</p><p>Notice we can see that <em>Audio 1</em> is a Mono track because it only has one
connection slot, while track <em>Audio 2</em> is Stereo since it has two slots (Left
and Right).</p><p>The next screenshot shows the signal path from <em>Ardour Tracks</em> (selected
vertical tab) into Ardour busses (selected horizontal tab). As mentioned
earlier, the default setting for all <em>Ardour Tracks</em> is that their sound goes to
the <em>Master</em> bus.</p><figure><img src=en/ardour7-audio-connection-manager-2.png alt="ACM 2"></figure><p>Note: remember that <em>Audio 1</em> is a Mono track? We saw it in the earlier
screenshot that <em>Audio 1</em> only has one input slot. But now on the screenshot
above you see that &ldquo;Audio 1&rdquo; has two outputs (left and right). This is normal:
we define whether a track is Mono or Stereo by its <em>number of inputs</em>, not
outputs. Mono tracks will hold a single channel of audio, but you can still
choose to place the sound on the left or the right speaker (or anywhere in
between). For more on this please see the <em>Panning</em> chapter.</p><p>Finally, let&rsquo;s explore a couple more tabs in the <em>Audio Connection Manager</em> to
see the sound going from the <em>Master</em> bus to the actual hardware outputs (your
loudspeakers or headphones):</p><figure><img src=en/ardour7-audio-connection-manager-3.png alt=ACM3></figure><p>As you can see, the selected source tab is now <em>Ardour Busses</em>, and the
destination tab is <em>Hardware</em>. This session happens to have only one bus, the
default &ldquo;master out&rdquo;. The green dots show that all sounds coming out of the
<em>Master</em> bus are going to system playback 1 and 2, which are the outputs of your
soundcard.</p><h3 id=how-to-connect-and-disconnect>How to connect and disconnect?</h3><p>To make a connection, click on the desired empty square in the matrix; a green
dot will appear to indicate the connection is made.</p><p>To undo a connection, simply click on an existing green dot and it will
disappear.</p><p>There is a neat trick you can use when you need to map many mono/stereo outputs
to many mono/stereo inputs: rather than making many single clicks, draw a
connection line. Here is how you do it:</p><figure><img src=en/ardour7-drawing-connection-lines.gif alt="Drawing connection lines"></figure><h3 id=practical-example-of-routing-to-a-bus>Practical example of routing to a bus</h3><p>In the following example session, there are two guitar tracks and one
unused bus called <em>Guitar</em> bus, all Stereo.</p><p><figure><img src=en/ardour7-audio-connection-manager-4.png alt="ACM 4"></figure> </p><p>Suppose you want to send the output from the two guitar tracks to the <em>Guitar</em>
bus instead of the <em>Master</em> bus. This can be useful to control the volume of
both guitars with just one fader (in this case the <em>Guitar</em> bus fader) or
placing two instruments into the same virtual room by using a reverb plugin on
the bus. Then the output of the <em>Guitar</em> bus, which is the sum of the two
guitars, goes directly to the <em>Master</em> bus.</p><p>Here is how to edit the patchbay to get the desired routing. Select <em>Ardour
Tracks</em> tab from <em>Sources</em> (vertical tabs), and <em>Ardour Busses</em> from
destinations (horizontal bottom tabs). Undo existing connections from both
tracks to <em>Master</em>. Then create connections from both tracks to <em>Guitar</em> bus.
The final result would look like this:</p><p><figure><img src=en/ardour7-audio-connection-manager-5.png alt="ACM 5"></figure> </p><p>Now both guitar tracks are routed to the <em>Guitar</em> bus, and no longer directly
connected to the <em>Master</em> bus. We then make sure that the <em>Guitar</em> bus is, by
its turn, routed to the <em>Master</em> bus (the output routing of a bus is edited in
the same way as for a track), so that we can still hear the sound from both
guitar tracks. Now we can control the volume of both guitar tracks together by
changing the fader of the <em>Guitar</em> bus. What&rsquo;s more, we can now add plugins to
the Guitar Bus to process the sound of both guitar Tracks together.</p><h3 id=track--or-bus-specific-views-of-the-patchbay>Track- or Bus-specific views of the Patchbay</h3><p>The <em>Audio Connection Manager</em> (Patchbay) that you open with <strong>Alt + P</strong> shows
you the complete matrix of every single source and every single destination
available in Ardour. Sometimes this is too much: you just want to quickly change
the routing of a single track input or output, for example. Ardour allows you to
access a relevant subset of Patchbay connections when you click directly on the
<strong>Inputs</strong> or <strong>Outputs</strong> button of a track or bus in the mixer strip.</p><p>The <strong>Inputs</strong> button is at the top, and the <strong>Outputs</strong> button is on the bottom
of the strip. Clicking on either one will show you a menu of connection
options. In the screenshot below, for example, you would click on the <strong>1/2</strong>
button right under the track name <em>Guitar 1</em> in order to access this menu:</p><figure><img src=en/ardour7-editor-mixer-in-out.png alt="Editor Mixer In Out"></figure><p>You may select a connection right there from the menu, or choose <em>Routing Grid</em>
to see a simpler version of the <em>Audio Connection Manager</em> with only the
<strong>Inputs</strong> or <strong>Outputs</strong> of the selected track or bus.</p><h3 id=all-ardour-connections-are-jack-connections>All Ardour connections are JACK connections</h3><p>It is important to realize that any routings that you make or disconnect from
within Ardour are in fact JACK routings, which you can see from other
applications like <em>Qjackctl</em> or <em>Catia</em>, depending on your operating system.
Below is an example of a <em>Catia</em> window (Linux only) displaying the same JACK
connections discussed above:</p><figure><img src=en/Ardour4_Catia_Example.png alt=Catia></figure><h2 id=continuing>Continuing</h2><p>In this chapter, we covered how to manage routing inside Ardour, or between
Ardour and the sound card. However, one of the strengths of using the JACK
system is that it can also manage connections between applications on the same
computer. To gain a better understanding of how this works, please continue to
the chapter <em>Routing Between Applications</em>. If you would prefer to work only
with Ardour, then skip ahead to the section on <em>Arranging Tracks</em>.</p><p>NEXT: <a href=../routing-between-applications>ROUTING BETWEEN APPLICATIONS</a> or
