Topic: ADA8200 preamp + Totalmix + outboard comp
Hello...
I would like some assistance with routing my Babyface Pro with a compressor(ART VLA II ) via a Behringer ADA 8200 preamp thru lightpipe.
Here's my current setup and routing:
1) Babyface Pro in and out to ADA8200 vias Toslink cables. Successful sync.
2) Line out of compressor to line in on ADA8200 (input 8)
3) Line in of compressor to line out of ADA8200 (output 1)
To test in totalmix, I started by running a track out from StudioOne to an ADAT out and can successfully see activity on meters.
In my DAW (Studio One), a track is playing and sent to line out 8, with an additional track to set to record the output of the compressor coming back from the ADA 1. I still get no signal on the compressor meters. I think(?) the problem is with my routing in TotalMix.
I'm sure the problems stem from my newness and routing issues. I have read the manual, Ramses signal flow primer, and other resources but am still lost. Its probably a pretty simple explanation but I need it spoon fed to me -- embarassed icon.
I apologize if this stuff is so obvious and that I didn't explain myself well. Any suggestions would be helpful... thank you for your time.
