I don`t know why Sonar X3 don`t have personal FREE for ALL people ProChannel Delay - it is philosophical question. :)
 
This is gift is good.
 
I have FX Chain persets for moderm delay and if I need it for ProChannel I drag it.
In this pic. you can see standart presets.

 
In my studio I have other:
Delay 1/8, Delay 1/16, Delay 1/4, Delay 1/8*, Delay 1/4T and other.
I click and drag... and I don`t need to setup delay. This preset have all what I need.
 
You can make it and make interesting Delay Presets whis Waw-waw filter and other FX. FX Chain - it is simple and FREE way to do it. :)

Yanno... I totally forgot we could drag regular non PC FX into the Prochannel. How the heck did I forget that? lol
 
Edit: and a better question... how the heck do I DO that? I remember seeing the vids and threads about it when X2 came out but I don't remember running across anything in the first 800 pages of the manual (where I stopped reading... gotta get back to that) and it hardly ever gets brought up.
 
hmm...
 
Nevermind... it's an FX Chain thing. I thought for some reason it was a different module that only mapped to one effect. I just misunderstood them initially when watching the promos then when I learned about FX Chains I didn't realize it was the same thing.

Yeah Beep, I use the prochannel like a fx bin many times. I like the visual it gives me for routing orders along with the quick and easy mouse drag to change the routing. I find the fx bin still useful though, like when I want to copy an efx from one track to another. That exercise is easier for me using bins. The other, other, other things I like about it - it adds another placeholder to save efx and settings, very simuilar to efx chains, more like a big ole prochannel chain - that's nice for when I want to change a track template. I probably use prochannel presets way more than efx chains. -- The prochannel efx handling will dominate usage for me over the fx bin once they offer us the capability to save presets on individual modules!!! That upgrade has to be on the drawing board somewhere. I know I've put in feature requests...  Cheers
 
 
Edited to say Thanks Cake for the delay efx. I will enjoy it!   :)

Hi, musicroom. Although I haven't used FX Chains much yet I really think they are an awesome idea. I'm not sure if other DAWs have anything similar but if not these things are BIG point in Sonar's favor. I gotta try something now... I'm not sure if the ProChannel FX Chains module knobs can be grouped across tracks but if they can it would really solve my TH2 problem. I need an easy way to control TH2 across MANY tracks simultaneously and the only way I could do it before was to make changes on one track then copy the sim over to the rest of the tracks. Not very good for mixing (because you can't hear the changes across all tracks in the mix) or workflow.
 
BTW all that other weirdness got sorted out. All is cool now. Cheers. ;-)

Beep there must be a way to have one of the tracks send midi/automation to all the others so that when you manipulate that track, all tracks adjust to the changes.

Got it!

Enjoy!
 
Good to see you back around these parts as well.

Hmm... that would work however I don't really use a controller to mix with. The only controller that I have that has enough pots is my Oxygen 25 and I a) rarely hook it up unless I'm recording something and b) it's a little finicky about mapping to certain things. If I can't get what I want going internally though this idea will likely be put to use. Thanks muchly. ;-)

Maybe set a midi controller to all the parameters you want. Have the controller on it's own midi channel and the parameters set to receive on the same channel.

Quick Group won't let you do this for all tracks that have the effect, then using just one track to control all selected tracks?

Maybe set up TH2 with FX chains in the PC with controls set to the parameters in TH2 you want to adjust and then group them together?

At work right now can't try this to let you know if it works.

Yep, this is what I was mentioning earlier. If that works them I'm good to go. All I really need are controls over stuff like Gain, Drive, Varifire and some pedal controls.
 
hmm... I wonder if the cab mic distance/position settings can be assigned to FX Chain parameters as well. That might be a little too weird though.
 
Another piece of the puzzle will likely be those internal TH2 assignable controls. I'll be messing with this soon so all should become clearer. Frankly back when I was trying this stuff out before I really had no idea what I was doing. Should be easier now.
 
Cheers.
