|
||
fader that can be used to route the signal to other points in Ardour.</p><p>Also known as <em>auxiliary sends</em>, they tap the signal at a specific point in
|
||
the signal flow (pre-fader, post-fader, before or after EQs and other plugins,
|
||
etc.) and send a copy of that signal somewhere else, without affecting the
|
||
normal signal flow downwards to the channel fader.</p><p>In Ardour, you can easily add <em>sends</em> to tracks and busses through the mixer
|
||
strip. Sends are processors, just like plugins.</p><h2 id=when-is-a-send-useful>When is a Send Useful?</h2><p>In earlier chapters, we built a drum kit pattern with four separate tracks:
|
||
kick, snare, hihat, and clap. Let’s say now you’d like to add a reverb to the
|
||
drums. You could of course add a separate plugin for each individual track,
|
||
and tweak their settings separately, but this method unnecessarily increases
|
||
the amount of work. Every time you want to change a reverb setting across the
|
||
board for all drums, you’d have to open all four reverb plugins and change
|
||
them in the same way.</p><p>This is where sends come in handy: you can use them to add a particular
|
||
effect to a set of tracks without creating multiple instances of the same
|
||
plugin.</p><p>Here’s the overview of how we will do this:</p><ol><li>Create a single bus with the desired plugin.</li><li>Add a send to each drum track to which you want to apply the effect.</li><li>Route these sends to the bus.</li></ol><h2 id=creating-the-bus-and-adding-a-plugin>Creating the Bus and adding a Plugin</h2><p>Create a bus (<code>Track > Add Track, Bus, or VCA...</code> in the menu), name it
|
||
appropriately, and add a plugin in the pre-fader region (right-click just
|
||
above the fader’s blue rectangle in the processor box), as discussed in the
|
||
previous chapter, <em>Using Plugins</em>.</p><p>In this example, we have created a mono bus called <em>Drums</em>, and added the
|
||
<em>ACE Reverb</em> plugin to the bus.</p><figure><img src=en/ardour7-ace-reverb-in-mixer-strip.png alt=sends1></figure><h3 id=bus-inputs>Bus inputs</h3><p>The “-” display in the bus input button indicates that nothing is routed to
|
||
this bus yet. We will take care of this later.</p><h3 id=bus-output>Bus output</h3><p>Before routing a send to this bus, first make sure that the bus outputs are
|
||
routed to the <em>Master</em> bus, as shown below (button at bottom reads “<em>master</em>”).</p><figure><img src=en/Ardour4_Sends_2.png alt=sends2></figure><p>Also, open the plugin window (double click on the <em>ACE Reverb</em> rectangle) and
|
||
set the plugin’s signal mix to 1.0 <em>Blend</em> value.</p><figure><img src=en/ardour7-ace-reverb-settings.png alt=sends3></figure><p>This ensures that the bus carries all of the processed signal from the plugin,
|
||
and none of the unprocessed signal to the <em>Master</em> bus. Remember, the
|
||
unprocessed, ‘clean’ signals are still available from their original tracks,
|
||
so there is no need to duplicate them in this bus.</p><h2 id=creating-and-routing-sends>Creating and Routing Sends</h2><p>Now we can create sends in the other tracks and route them to the bus inputs.</p><p>Like plugins, sends are also created in the processor box. Go to each of your
|
||
drum tracks, right-click in empty space of the processor box, and create a
|
||
<em>New Aux Send…</em> directed to the appropriate bus (in our case, named <em>Drums</em>).</p><p><figure><img src=en/ardour7-adding-aux-send.png alt=sends4></figure> </p><div class="notices tip"><p>If you do <em>not</em> see the <em>New Aux Sends…</em> option in the menu, it’s probably
|
||
because you did not create any bus yet. Go back to the previous step to create
|
||
the bus.</p></div><p>You should now see the send displayed in the processor box:</p><p><figure><img src=en/ardour7-post-fader-send.png alt=postfader></figure> </p><p>The little <em>Send</em> slider you see just below the green rectangle is the send
|
||
fader, which controls how much sound will be sent from this track to the bus.</p><h3 id=post-fader-vs-pre-fader-sends>Post-Fader vs Pre-Fader Sends</h3><p>Notice that the image above shows a post-fader send (it sits <em>after</em> the fader
|
||
rectangle). In post-fader sends, the send level is controlled <em>first</em> by both
|
||
the track/Bus Fader and <em>second</em> by the send fader.</p><p>In a <em>pre</em>-fader send, on the other hand, the send level is controlled only by
|
||
the send fader, independently of the track/bus fader. A pre-fader send would
|
||
look like this:</p><p><figure><img src=en/ardour7-pre-fader-send.png alt=prefader></figure> </p><p>You can drag the send rectangle up and down the processor box to make it pre-
|
||
or post-fader as needed.</p><div class="notices tip"><p>The choice of pre- or post-fader depending on the type of effect plugin used and
|
||
the desired result. For this exercise, either one will work.</p></div><p>A send behaves just like any other plugin in the processor box. You can
|
||
deactivate it temporarily by clicking on the small LED, and you can right click
|
||
on the rectangle to access other options, including <em>Delete</em>.</p><h3 id=send-fader>Send Fader</h3><p>To control the level of each send, simply click and drag the send fader to
|
||
increase or decrease its volume.</p><p><figure><img src=en/Ardour4_Send_Fader.png alt=sendfader></figure> </p><p>The <em>Drums</em> bus is now receiving the sum of all tracks, and applying the effect
|
||
to it. A single plugin applied to the bus controls the effect for the mix of all
|
||
drum sounds routed there. This way, you have independent control over the “dry”
|
||
sound of the original tracks, and the “wet” sound of coming out of the bus.</p><p>Because sends are very useful for this kind of work with effect plugins, they
|
||
are also commonly called “Effect Sends”.</p><h2 id=continuing>Continuing</h2><p>Now that you know how to add plugins to a track, as well as how to add sends
|
||
to tracks to create plugin busses usable by any number of tracks, it might be
|
||
helpful to learn about a few other plugins useful in the mixing process.
