For the pros: automating sends as a pattern

Postby toysun » Fri Jun 22, 2012 10:44 am

Hi,
The screenshot shows what I want to do. It will work, but I'm wondering if it's the best approach.
(the channel strip is set to "no output" and those are bus sends...

I want to whip my audio routing through different channel strips (busses, auxes, I don't care...) on the beat, actually.
So eventually I'd be moving these little pre-built units around and using them on different songs. I'd like to have a 1/4 note one, an 8th note, etc...and more than 4 routings, too.

I've thought about/experimented with: trying to do with a "fake" surround mix, using automated switches in environment, routing to multiple strips and muting the strips rather than the sends, and of course, turning this automation in to MIDI and working it that way.

Anyone else have any thoughts?

I think you'd have to build this into your main template since send automation doesn't seem to want to export into midi files.

If you create regions with region based automation that contain the send switching, you could pack them all into a folder and hide that track for future use.

I've been dreaming of an LFO in logic that could be cabled to any perimeter. Or a time synced envelope. Then I wake and realize that Logic is owned by one of the biggest corporations in the world and probably doesn't care about my ideas...
