I'm gonna have to watch some routing videos....... This is ALL over my head! Of, course, with only 2 tunes ready for mixing, I need to watch those. I'm starting to feel like I'm back at square one!
On both tracks, I just started adding amp sims to the individual tracks and then I think I should have bussed them, and then I think how can I have different settings, and then I think having them on individual tracks is best, and then I read about patch points and the comparisons to bussing, and I say....when is it going to stop???? And then I wonder why I can't simply drag an effect from one fx to another....
PS - all in good fun tho
:-) I hear you :-)
One thing I've learned recently is that there's no "RIGHT" way to do many things in recording/mixing - or any other project for that matter.
I used to feel very overwhelmed as well. Until I thought to myself "I'll become a bit familiar with a couple of tools/processes at a time, but not feel obligated to use them - and sooner than later I'll come upon a scenario where these new tools/ideas may help and be able to recognize them in context, and THEN decide which method/tool/plugin/whatever I prefer".
taking the pressure off myself AND the software/process ended up in me learning more than I ever have!
I hope this helps a bit.
