Lazy M Beats Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Alright, so I feel that i may be getting in over my head here because I am just beginning to dabble in bussing and routing (which I know is critical) so please forgive me if I have got something wrong or my vocabulary isn't up to snuff. Additionally, I love watching video tutorials so if anyone has a suggestions for a really good tutorial that might answer my question, I am all for it! Heres my issue: I have a drums section which includes a few dedicated channel strips for each part of the drums: Kick and layers, Snare and layers, a couple different hats, and a conga channel strip. I send the output of all of these channel strips to a bus so that I can glue them together with compressors and EQ and whatnot. What I would like to do is automate a filter to filter out everything in the drum bus EXCEPT the congas. The only way that I would know how to do this would be to put the filter individually on every channel strip that I would filtered before it goes out to the bus but I am sure there must be a better way.

des99 Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Bus all the drums except the congas to an aux channel (say, "DumSub") - put the filter on that aux channel. Then bus the output of that aux channel, and the congos, to a new aux channel (say "DrumAll") that becomes the overall drum subbuss for processing.

Lazy M Beats Posted March 21, 2015 Author Share Posted March 21, 2015 Thank you very much! I had never thought of bussing an aux channel to another aux. It makes so much sense! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
