Key zones for Audio effects?

Post by vertecs » Wed Sep 29, 2010 9:19 pm

Hija,

I know, You cant place an instrument rack after another instrument rack. Nesting doesn´t seem to help either.
But is there a way to have a chain with an an instrument (rack) first and after that a rack full of audio
effects with key zones?

My idea behind this is to have NIs Kontakt first an the the effects where one note on the keyboard triggers
the samples and the note-specific effect aswell?

Any suggestions from You LIVE heads?

Cheers

Why not creating an audio effects racks after the instrument racks, and instead of key zones use the chain selector?

Thanks for the answer,

that won´t help, because I want the effects to be triggered by MIDI notes and not the chain selector.
Using the chain selector would mean another automation in the arrangement and with multiple
notes multiple effects should be triggered.

A drumrack would fix this too, but I don´t want to have my sounds store within an drumrack for
this special project.

So, anyone else with an idea?
