AUDIO SIGNAL FLOW
To reiterate, the send volume type determines whether audio from the track is routed
to the Send Track before or after the track fader and volume automation. Here’s a
diagram of the audio signal flow in Mixcraft:
1. Clips (with clip-level automation)
2. Track Insert Effects
3. PRE-Fader Send*
4. Track volume and pan
5. POST-Fader Send*
Send Track Effects
When adding an effect
to a Send Track, we
recommend using a
preset designed for a
Send Track. (They’ll
have the word Send in
the title.) These presets
will already have the
wet/dry mix set to
100% wet in order to
avoid the problem of
having the dry signal’s
volume controlled by
the channel fader and
the effect’s dry signal
balance. If the clean
volume appears to
behave strangely
(“Why can’t I turn
this darn channel
down!%^&?”), click
fx in the Send Track,
then the Edit button
next to the effect.
Now adjust the dry
mix down to 0% and
the wet mix up to 100%.
* Depending on the send volume type, the audio from a track will be sent at one of the
starred * points in the audio signal flow.
