A simple audio "send out" from anywhere in the effect chain.
Posted: Mon Jul 11, 2011 3:49 pm
I'm not sure this already exists as a builtin audio-device in Live 8, but is there a way to route a copy of a signal (like Y-splitting to the current track fader and another track) to another DropDown-menu-specified track in your project?
Something like... (sorry for the cheap ASCII illustration):
So with this, you could redirect / interrupt an effect chain on a track for further processing in another track (or send track), outboard processing, or simply for places that calls for specific monitoring.
You'd be free, as usual, to add effects BEFORE and AFTER this Ableton Live device.
The dropdown for Audio-OUT would have the following available selections:
- Any Audio-Tracks (except self);
- Any Send-Tracks, and;
- the Master-Track;
The dropdown for Audio-IN would have the following available selections:
- Match output (the "auto redirect" if you will, it basically listens back to the signal from the selected Audio-Out track);
- Any Audio-Tracks (though, if only those affected by the selected Audio-Out track could be identified, that'd be great!);
- Any Send-Tracks, and;
- the Master-Track;
Regarding the Audio-In part:
Does Max For Live have the ability to "listen" at other tracks without having to setup special devices at those specific signal end-points? That'd be great and make this more user-friendly, in my opinion.
Has anyone stumble across a similar device, or think they could build one up relatively quickly?
(I would if I knew how the heck to work Max4Live!)

Code: Select all
//Track 1 effect devices:
/ \/ ::NEW:: \/ \
| Some random | Audio Out to: Track 2 [v] (Dropdown list) | More |
| effects | Output Level: [Volume Knob in decibels (db)] | Effects! |
Audio In =>| here... | | |=> Audio Out
| (ex: EQ, | Audio In from: Track 2 [v] (Dropdown list) | (ex: EQ, |
| Compressor)| Input Level: [Volume Knob in decibels (db)] | Beat-Repeat, |
\ /\ /\ Reverb,etc) /
