WhistleMan Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Hello, I'm fairly new to Logic and have been trying to figure out is it possible to use a hardware vocal effects pedal at the input recording stage so that when I play the recording back in Logic the effects from the hardware pedal are on the track. I have tried using the I/O plugin in logic but it's not working. The audio interface I have is the focusrite scarlett 18i8. I'm thinking I might need an interface with extra out channels on it. This one only has 2 line outs for the monitors and 2 headphone outs. The pedal is a boss ve 20 vocal processor. Thanks in advance for any suggestions. It's driving me nuts!!

triplets Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 This pedal is meant for live recordings, not after the fact. So if you record the vocals with the effect on another track, you're set. You're going mic - boss input and boss output Left for mono - line in on your scarlett. Should work perfectly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhistleMan Posted September 11, 2017 Author Share Posted September 11, 2017 Hi Tripletts. Thanks for your reply but I'm not sure what you mean. Do I set up 2 tracks? The first track is a regular track without the effects pedal so it's just the mic connected straight into the input of the scarlett? Then the second track is the mic connected to the effects pedal and that goes input 2 of scarlett from left mono out of pedal? I'm a bit confused sorry!!

triplets Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Yes, 2 tracks in Logic. One track is plain mic The other mic with the effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhistleMan Posted September 13, 2017 Author Share Posted September 13, 2017 Do I need an aux track set up for this process? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
