The MultiMix 8 USB FX enables a bidirectional stereo signal path, so musicians can record the stereo Main output into their computer and listen back using the mixer as an interface from software to headphones and monitoring loudspeakers. Enlarged knob-to-knob spacing improves ergonomics and ease-of-use.
The newly-designed mixer introduces a sleek new appearance for the MultiMix series and incorporates new, removable end caps, which can be helpful for squeezing the MultiMix 8 USB FX into smaller spaces in tightly-packed setups.
For lush mixes, the internal effects processors enables you to add extra depth to live sound--like a long delay on the vocalist's channel--or beef up dry recordings with some extra ambiance. Decrease Clip Gain. To apply a static change to clip gain, click on the Clip Gain Info button in the bottom left corner of the clip. You'll notice a floating fader come into view.
As you move your mouse up or down, this increases or decreases the amount of gain you are applying to that single clip. You'll notice the size of the waveform also increase or decrease with this change. This is due to the fact you are making changes to the actual audio file on the hard drive, thus increasing or decreasing the "recorded" level, before it flows through the mixer. Notice in the picture above, the difference in size. In the top most picture, Clip Gain is reduced, resulting in smaller waveforms.
In the 2nd pic, Clip Gain is increased, resulting in much taller waveforms. This would be the same result if we turned up or down the gain on the pre-amp as we were recording. Although it is effective to make wide sweeping changes, you also have the ability to make dynamically change the Clip Gain over time.
By utilizing the tools, you can effectively draw Clip Gain changes to make precise changes over time giving you the balance you are looking for. The easiest way to make an adjust to individual section is to select the are and use the Trim Tool to increase or decrease the Clip Gain. This is especially helpful if a particular section needs adjustment, but not the entire clip. If you need to get even more specific, you can use the Grabber Tool to draw Clip Gain changes over time.
Once you click on the clip gain line, you'll drop an anchor point which can be moved and manipulated along with other anchor points. Notice the pic above how much of a change has been applied to the Clip Gain.
Instead of relying on a selection based change, I have added as many anchor points as I needed in order to draw the shape. You can also use the Pencil tool to draw in the changes as well. You can use all of the sub tools, other than Parabolic and S-Curve. Yes, Random does work, although I would suggest against randomly drawing gain changes to your audio files. Above is an example of a bass part we recently recorded. Most things are ok, other than the part in the middle where the waveform is noticeably bigger than everything around it.
Four on the Floor Xpand! Harnessing the four parts together to build one amazing Patch is where Xpand! The Voice Mode for each part can be set to polyphonic or monophonic.
Polyphonic parts can have up to 64 voices; monophonic parts offer First, Last, Highest, or Lowest priority making it easy to designate a bass, lead, or solo instrument. Sounds Galore Using everything from wavetables and FM synthesis to sample playback, the expert sound design team at Air Music Tech has carefully created thousands of ready-to-play Xpand! Creating your own is easy, too. Each knob changes function depending on the part selected, offering hands-on control of the most critical sound elements.
Select the Easy mode, and all six knobs now control all four of the common parts in a patch simultaneously for quickly performing those crucial edits. As a long-time Sibelius user and with some interesting composer contacts, I expect to look at how this works in some depth.
You know why? And, oddly, the process of even trying to review something as broad as a tool like Pro Tools just about short circuits any music logic anyway.
Update: keep the comments coming.
