In this quick video, Chris shows two common, and useful ways we can route audio in Logic (or your favorite DAW), using Busses and Auxes.
Like a guy yelling to young kids “Get off my lawn!”, Chris and Jody tackle the similarities and differences of Busses and Auxes in modern DAWS. What exactly is a Buss? What exactly is an Aux? What do we use them for? Why would you use one over another? All the scintillating ideas about these mysterious items are found within this episode. Also, the latest Gold Star keyword is mentioned. For the truly brave listener there is also the Friday Finds for what will help your musical endeavors. It’s also not unlikely that there will be some nonsense discussed.
