HI, I hoping I can get a few ideas on optimal signal flow in my small home studio.
My signal path looks like this now....
mic/line in--pre--Apogee Rosetta 200(digital out to )--Echo Layla 24 computer interface--Cubase.
Then I am assigning my main 2 mix to Analog outs 1 and 2 (of Echo Layla) and running that in to a mixer(so I can control monitor volume w fader) , then to power amp/ monitors.
However, I just replaced old monitors w some Solo 6's and realize my current signal path is a little busy.
I am having a difficult time wrapping my head around the cleanest and most efficient signal flow. I'd like to make the most out of the Apogee in terms of conversion. Im just not sur how to use it to AD at beginning then into Echo then somehoww back in to Apogee(digitally perhaps? though this would entail switching the input on Apogee when switching from INPUT and PLAYBACK) then back out to monitors? Maybe Im trying to get too much out of it? Id like to avoid the DA conversion of Echo if possible.
I assume I also may have to get a monitor controller.
Any ideas?
Thank you,
Thomas
