This is basicly another “What am I doing wrong?” thread. But before you refer to the manual (RTFM :P), you might wanna read up on this one. You could find the info here useful. 😉
So, here goes. It’s a trick I always do in Reason.
I’ve made my own tape echo patch in a Combinator. This patch is fed normally from aux 1 on the mixer, but I connect the post-echo signal to a mixer channel instead of an aux return. This way I can then send some of the post-echo signal to the reverb, which gives a nice blend to the echo.
Now, since Podium rawcks even harder than Reason, it’s obvious I have the desire to apply the same principle in Podium. 8)
The way I’ve figured it, I need 3 different send/return busses to do this. One for echo, one for reverb and one for echo->reverb.
I manage to get echo and reverb send/returns working fine. But, when I make the final required mapping, which feeds the reverb from the post-echo signal, the echo return mapping is disabled. But, for a very short period of time, the reverb is actually fed the intended signal from the echo. 😡
Common sense, logic, and the way the mappings are arranged in the hiarchy tells me there’s no way a feedback loop should occur. Yet still, Podium disables the echo return mapping “as it would feed into itself through a mapping on a previous track. :frustrated:
So… What am I doing wrong?
