How would i typically do this?
My preamp is an old mesa boogie studio pre.
It has mono send and stereo return.

I have three related questions for you.
I was uncertain whether ask for your help or not and eventually decided for this second option, I hope you'll help me focus on relevant facts.

when i record into Pro Tools it seems like I'm not making the best of my input gain. i have my first 8 channels going into my 002 via the ADAT light pipe and then i have another 4 channels going into the 4 line level inputs, not the pre's. I'm not using those..

Hello!

I will be repatching my small studio this week. To include a following :

16 Mic inputs to the control room.
4 Aux feeds to the floor.

Hey all. I have a quick question. I have 1 large rack, with a couple of pres, a compressor, eq, couple of verbs...etc.

Can someone explain "normalled"

1. What is fully normalled? what are the pros and cons and how is this used?
2. What is half normalled? what are the pros and cons and how is this used?
3. How is each used respectively and why are pieces normalled and not?

Thanks.

This is a topic that has bothered me for a long time, and now I need to solve it as I have decided to finally get a patchbayrather than dig around in the back of my rack every time I need to make some changes! :)

HI everyone

The forum seems a bit dead over the past few days, so I hope someone is around as I need HELP!

This is probably the most mundane and basic topic on the planet. I need to get a patchbay, and I know not the first thing about them. Everytime I've been in big studios it's been as a musician, and my own setup has never quite needed one.

Hello all,

Here's the scenario:
I'm running my mic preamp straight into my recorder
currently. I would like to split
the signal from the mic preamp and send the
additional output to my mixer so I can insert
into the mix bus for headphone distribution.
