Record FX only with Overbridge

#1

Hello all Elektron users,

I have a AR and I downloaded the famous Overbridge, my question is :

Is it possible to only record the FX with using the Main LR of Overbridge,
I unroute all the track of the main so normally only the return of the FX should be ear, but in my DAW, the MainLR of Overbridge is always everythings.
Did I miss something, can you help me please.

Cheers.

Open the AR Overbridge control panel thingy in your DAW, go to KIT - there you have something like “use global routing options” - uncheck that. Then you have the option to turn on/off the routing to main for individual voices/tracks.
It’s been a pretty mighty struggle with different routing options for me, too… Hope this helps.

Hey!

Thanks for the tip.

How would you route the channels, and record the FX in Ableton? I have assigned audio channels inputting CH 1 to CH 11/12, but there’s no option of selecting FX or an alternative name as input channel for FX.

Great tip! With this method you can use the “Main Mute Mask” to silence all dry drum signals from the track that you have your VST-plugin on, leaving you with FX only. THEN to record that FX on a separate track: Create another audio track (call it “FX”) and select “Audio To”: FX on the VST track.

Overbridge is f…ing genius… :slight_smile: So nice to have all channels going through USB and leaving free space on the mixer.
