but after using EnergyXT for the last couple of years I’m finding it hard going so far
I can’t believe that it’s so difficult to route multiple tracks to a single plugin instance
In fact Podium even gives an error message when you try to do it! – whaaat!!!This is something (to me anyway) essential when recording a song – so that I can keep parts on separate tracks for maximum flexibility
I found a previous post that states that the only way to do this is to set up group and child tracks – excellent solution – except that it seems that I can’t record onto child tracks
The other way I’ve found is to create multi-timbral instances and then create copies of the individual instances (if that makes sense)
I find that I can’t make a copy of a non multi-timbral instance for some reasonagain this works – but I then get an error message if I try to put tracks together as group/child –
this all seems crazy to me – am I missing something??
Actually, it’s really easy, but not at all intuitive – I couldn’t find anything in the manual where this was explained and definitely wouldn’t have thought of it by myself. Check out this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RbrtFct9b38 It uses Addictive Drums as an example, but the same process applies to any multi-timbral vsti. I figured out what to do before the video was even finished and I’m a long way from being a pro sound guy.
