Hope everyone in is well Not at my GP5 rig at the moment but am trying to find out.
I currently run a fully mono GP5 Mac / Motu Live Rig with everything going out “Left” through my Motu M2
→ is it possible to run more than one set of “From/To Global Rackspace’s” within 1 x Rack and keep everything and all the “From/To Global Rackspace’s” all going out mono Left ?
As in the global rackspace you can only have 1 “From Rackspaces” Plugin, it makes no sense to include multiple “To Global Rackspace” plugins.
I cannot think of a use case where 64 Input channels of the “To Global Rackspace” plugin are not enough.
Yes this does work (I personally use it all the time) and is especially useful if you don’t want one signal chain affected by the latency compensation of a different signal chain.
Well, I did set the number of channels to my needs, yes. However this is a global setting and applies to each and every From Global/To Global block equally.
In my case, the external keys are preamplified in the global rackspace and received by the local rackspace via one From Global block, treated with FX, mixed with the local plugins and sent back to the global rackspace via one To Global block.
The vocals, for example, are coming into and leave the local rackspace via a separate set of the From Global/to Global blocks. This way the latency compensation system treats the two chains independently and doesn’t try to compensate for a latency introduced by the plugins in the keys’ signal chain on the vocals.
But back to Pianopaul’s thoughts: what are you actually trying to achieve?
I didn’t understand the functionality of how the From/To are to be used.
All I need to do is to go From/To the Global in 2 different parts of the Global chain - nothing complicated.
I -thought- I would need separate / discrete From/To for each of the 2 parts of the Global chain I wanted to tap into as I was accessing 2 x different locations of the Global chain
Looks like I just need to do this via the Number of Channels in the To Global Rackspace Block.
I reckon I can figure it out now I know how its “configured” to work
