It can be but is NOT by default. If you set the FX to be insert then it will only be assigned to the channel you choose

So let’s say you send 2 mic channels to the fx engine won’t the return contain both mics? I guess what I’m confused about is you have a 16 channel board and let’s say you want all 16 to get reverb. Won’t the return for any channel contain all channels? Hope this makes sense.

@@bradharris3150 If you send 2 mic ch to the same FX, then yes the FX will contain both mics. Unless as I mentioned, you configure the FX to be an Insert, then its only the channel you specify. 2 - Also correct, if you want all 16 to have reverb, the return will contain all 16 channels. The option would be to use the 4 FX engines for 4 "groups" of mic vhannels. (Eg. Send 6 mics to each of the 4 FX engines). Alternately you could set each of the 4 FX to be Inserts and use them on only 4 channels. There is simply no way to get 16 individual FX (eg. One per channel) on the QU series boards. The max is the 4 FX engines available

@@soundadvicewithrob3083 copy that. Thank you.

Great question. It’s just a matter of tracing the signal path and deciding how you want to adjust it. Since the FXReturn is specific to an output, you can adjust the return if you only want the FX to change in one output but not in another. The FXsend simply puts signal into the FX engine so changing the send level will impact all outputs where you have added the FXReturn. Hope that helps

Check: Does your monitors are (physically) connected to the selected Aux/Mix/Bus. Also check the internal patching whethere the connected channel has been moved or replaced for some reason!

Thx for the kind words. Glad you found it helpful

Thx

@@soundadvicewithrob3083 I do mean second layer! I find it a very front facing console and not too much is hidden. It's also really fun to sort out the routing when using USB mode especially! Thanks for this video I send it around all the time to explain what I can't over the phone!

Use the FX send layer to adjust individual mics

@@soundadvicewithrob3083 Thank you.. I have one more question. I have a Mix with 2 Wireless Mic and a Backing track (Stereo MP3) , if I pop or speak too close to mic, the backing track level (on speaker ) goes down. Tried multiple mic and couple of mixers, Qu-16, Yamaha MG and Tascam Model 12. Any clue on what might went wrong ?. Issues with Speaker / Amp ?

What you are describing is called “Ducking”. When one signal is reduced when another channel has signal. Make sure that Ducking is turned OFF on the backing track channel

@@soundadvicewithrob3083 thank you ... But I see it's not the case.... And is not happening always... It's strange behaviour and not seeing it with headphone mix... Only happening with speakers. , No matter what ever the mix bus I use .. Investigating further 😄

@@soundadvicewithrob3083 Thank you for the reply. Yes. I have FX on Main L/R I’m following your video, but nothing in my monitors.

@@soundadvicewithrob3083 Nothing is muted. Now I’ve lost all fx. Out front is gone now. 😫

@@soundadvicewithrob3083 Hi. Ok so I’ve watched your tutorial again and have got my fx back FOH. But still no luck with the monitor

And what change did you have to make to get FOH fx back?

@@soundadvicewithrob3083 Is it normal to have bleed from the monitors though. What I was doing wrong was that I was turning down the slider for my mains, leaving no signal to work with, so I just turned down the volume on my speakers (Powered).

Thx Isaac. Glad it was helpful

Thx John. Glad you found us and also that you found it helpful.

Ive also started a seperate channel specifically for these QU series tutorials. ruclips.net/channel/UCepIavD0Gu54Vl68iuhroxA

FX are only applied to any mix via the FXreturn. Make sure that FXreturn on each mix is adjusted accordingly.

Hi and thx for the question. If you are referring to faders on the upper layer they are copies of the nine output master faders. Notice the box around the labels as a reminder that they are copies of existing controls

Thx Caleb. Guess it depends on which part of the globe you grew up in LOL. But thx for watching.

FX should typically be post fader. I have posted another video on pre and post

Thx and welcome to the channel. Glad you found it helpful

@@soundadvicewithrob3083 Ooh. Forgot to sub. All the Best!

Thx for the question. Any chance that mic is included in some other routing that goes to the wedges? Maybe it’s sent to an FX that is going to the wedges? Often the problems that are intermittent are the most difficult to track down. Since you suggest it only happens “at times” can you describe exactly when it happens?

@@soundadvicewithrob3083 thanks for replying brother. Finally figured it all out. What happened was, our sound guy was recording our service through logic but had the computer plugged in to the aux. So the mic was being sent to the desk, the desk to the laptop, and the laptop was sending it back through the aux. User error lol. Very amateur moment. Thanks for your help though. Love your content

Thx. You should be able to PAFL the FX Return channel to hear only the FX

@@soundadvicewithrob3083 is it possible to add eq in this reverb? I want to eq the drums tracks reverb only without affecting vocals reverb and of course without affecting the main channel eq of the drums. Thanks 🙏

The only way to “eq the drum reverb” would be to assign the drums to a separate eq and have the vocals on another reverb

Thx Lau. Glad you enjoyed the video. Good catch by the way... didn’t think anyone would have noticed LOL. At 4:57 I accidentally turned down the FX1 Master. When using the upper layer, the last 9 faders are copies of the 9 master faders (notice the labels all have a box around them). Later when I went back to the FX send layer of course the master had been turned down. Again, good catch LOL

Thx Matt. Glad you found it helpful.

@@soundadvicewithrob3083 now I’ve found your channel, well channels which why should I look for for more great QU and PA instruction? Thanks for the videos.

Rob McLaughlin I want to commit to the signal of a prerecorded vocal or instrument sort of like a plug in in pro tools. This will allow to not use as much DSP on my computer if I can use the Fx on my board
