Only FX sound is called "wet", as in the normal signal being "dry" and the amount of "wetness" is applied using the mix knob on any FX unit. So 100% mix is 100% wet. Cool video man, I've never really thought of using pads and mobile devices like you do.. but I haven't really dived into it before either since I've been HW sequencer and then DAW. I guess these devices are just as powerful these days when used properly. :D
The BUS SENDS can also be set to "PRE-fader" or "POST-fader", by long-pressing on the BUS icon. Seems like AUM defaults to PRE-fader, but there might be situations where you want a track's FX send level to be relative to the track's volume (POST-fader). And another option for switching among FX is simply keeping a few FX loaded on the same BUS channel, and activating/deactivating them by sliding their icons to the left, to take them out of the signal chain. That gives you the option of using any or all of the FX in the chain simultaneously (in series), change their order, etc. AUM is just incredible! Also, a word of caution about sending FX busses to other FX busses: it's easy to accidentally send a bus to its own input - which would cause a feedback loop. Conveniently, AUM alerts you to any feedback-causing routing by showing a dashed white outline around the icon of the bus send that's causing the feedback loop.
Your comment here is almost verbatim what I was going to write… You can also re-order the fx slots by pressing on them and sliding to the right and then where ever you want it on the chain.
@@chitlun And the bypassing of FX slots can all be automated too - with a CC, Note, or Program Change (like just about everything else in AUM). For example, I set up Rozeta LFO with a tempo-synced square wave, routed it to the mixer channel with the FX slot I wanna bypass, used the LEARN function under the FX's BYPASS parameter while the LFO was running, and now I'm watching the FX slot sliding back-and-forth on its own, bypassing and activating in sync with the tempo. So cool, so easy.
Tbh, I was completely dumbfounded by your original AUM bus set-up vid. I thought for a moment that I was missing a trick 😉 Good to see you correcting it to the way I’ve always done it 👍🏽
I’m not sure if you mean the FX Send one that I corrected or if you mean the one about down mix and recording? This video is a correction of my original FX send video that I put up a day before this one. I’m not correcting the Down mix and recording one because when it comes to that type of work I still port all my channels directly from the output to a down mix bus. I find it to be a better workflow for me to do it like that. Especially now after I realised that the FX slots can send audio to busses too.
No worries Jakob...I usually mix the way you showed in the first video in AUM. I like this option too tho. I usually mix this way in Ableton. Great job! Thanks!
A Very helpful video, thx so much! Great tip at the end, sending effects send to effects send; allowing transformation of a basic reverb to otherworldy. Endless creativity.
You always make me smile and are always amusing, even when you occasionally fumble. Actually this is a great way to reinforce the procedures, by contrasting the less efficient method with this amended recommended method. It is the kind of thing that so many people can easily overlook, ie: honing in on the menu item at the bottom of the list ... so easy to miss when there are so many option choices tucked away in not-so-obvious menus.
Lol jeez i have never knew this either. Never used or noticed the send bus in AUM so far. But this is exactly what i was looking for. Thanks for this video Jakob! 👍
If you allow me to contribute to your awesome instructional video, You can prevent the sound of the source app from continuing to sound on the send channel when you raise or lower the channel fader of the source app on the main channel. You can do this by going to the main channel where the source app is placed, then on the effect section where you have already learned how to place a send, you just have to keep the send effect pressed and the “post” or “pre” option will appear, you just have to touch the “post” option and voilà. Now you can control the level of all your send channels including the main one using only the main channel fader where you have placed the source app.
Just after I saved my first song in months that foe the first time integrated iOS sequencers and iOS effects in my eurorack setup ... and I had that short noise when adding a plugin ... half a day too late for that song but super good to finally understand send effects in general. Thanks!
Another thing about AUM, isn’t it suppose to be able to save states of AUs? I’m not finding that to be the case. For example a current project has a bunch of Iceworks synths and Stepbuds, also KB-1, all AUs, every time I open it I need to reset the presets, for the KB-1 and the synths. Is this something I’m doing wrong? Or is it a problem with AUM, or with those particular apps? It seems to happen a lot.
HELLO!!!! Please, tell me how to make automation happen in a certain plugin while I play TS-11, I really need faders in Koala FX to make a move without my intervention while playing TS-11, is it possible to do this without a midi controller ? It seems that the output, apparently, is the connection of the kaos mini pad 2s, but I really want to do without it.
Personally, adding fx to sculpt sounds is part of the creation and changes the music I make. It’s a part of the sound.. You wouldn’t tell a guitarist to record their parts dry, and then add in their pedals later, right? The way the pedals change the sound changes how they play.
I agree with Marcus here for the most part. However I’ve many times in the past had people playing instrument that I record where I’ll do double recordings. One for me and one for the band/artist. The one for me I’ve recorded dry so that I can do what I want with it later. It all depends on what you’re looking for in a sound. When I produce music I’ll many times turn of the fx in a Synth only to add other fx inside my DAW (Cubasis). But when I do live-stuff I always use fx.
@@JakobHaq certainly would, its unfortunate that many otherwise excellent apps leave out a swing control (Fugue Machine being just the most recent one to frustrate me crazy on this issue). If there was some kind of master swing control it would solve a lot of these problems.
Jakob Haq well, guess what, it seems that anything routed through that new app Cality can have swing added to it in Cality, whether or not any extra notes are added by Cality itself. Cality is an AU, so that’s incredibly useful, now any sequencer without swing can have a swing effect. Sweet as hell!
FX is short for effects so the signal with FX on it is the effected signal. Also, if you place an effect in the signal its placing an effect as opposed to placing an effects. I watched both videos and if both work why not keep both up? Someone might find it useful. You never know.
I'm pretty sure people come to watch this video to learn about the topic. You can save time by avoiding dumb introductions. Also, you kept taking about your previous mistake and repeated it, something that nobody cares specially people who didn't watch it. You should make concise videos going straight to the point, specially if you're going to fill them with commercials.
This vid is a bit special ... make sure you check my other ones before you judge my content and my ability to make videos. Also if you don’t like the intros then I’m sorry, I won’t be changing that.

This is a good way of mimicking roots dub fx. Just slide the send bus on and off when you want certain portions of the sound to echo or plate reverb

Jakob, I dig your humility. Much more impressed with AUM after seeing this update.

Hi Jakob, thank you for using my suggestion in the screen capture in your video. I’m delighted as this is the first time this has ever happened.
My pleasure! I’m very grateful whenever the community helps me out like you did and many others did. This video is for all of you! ⭐️⭐️⭐️
I’m glad to be of help, and I’m willing to help out in the future if needed.
Great advice, thanks Jakob! I’ve never bothered with the Bus Send in the effects slot but will try it now. 👍🏻
Awesome🤜Quick question: how do you back up and restore projects from device to device without losing things along the way?
Just watching this now, totally dig that you made this, thanks a lot Jakob!
Lol jeez i have never knew this either. Never used or noticed the send bus in AUM so far. But this is exactly what i was looking for. Thanks for this video Jakob! 👍
Thanks Jakob. Very Very helpful. I have added this layout to my Set Up folder. Cheers.
Great tutorial Jakob. Learnt a lot from You. Thanks so much.
Thank you for clarifying the FX sends Jakob
Lot helpfull, in fact the winner on this matter, thks

good old insert vs send FX :-) Thanks for the fix!
Hi Jacob can you explain the pre and post send button in AUM? Bit confused on how it works - thanks!
I like the AUM as the best Bus Station in the World !!!
Thanks for the great help with routing matters'!

Super cool
is there a side chain possibility in the AUM mixer?
Much respect!
Ok this gives me a thought... is there any advantage to adding fx pre recording, like in this video, rather than adding them post in cubasis

When I produce music I’ll many times turn of the fx in a Synth only to add other fx inside my DAW (Cubasis). But when I do live-stuff I always use fx.
By the way, is there no way to add some kind of swing directly in AUM? That will adjust swing of all rhythmic elements in a particular project?
No, but it would be pretty nice to have something like it.
@@JakobHaq certainly would, its unfortunate that many otherwise excellent apps leave out a swing control (Fugue Machine being just the most recent one to frustrate me crazy on this issue). If there was some kind of master swing control it would solve a lot of these problems.
I have a hard time continue using any type of app that sequencing if it lacks swing/shuffle control, so I completely understand.
Jakob Haq well, guess what, it seems that anything routed through that new app Cality can have swing added to it in Cality, whether or not any extra notes are added by Cality itself.

I don’t see why I should keep the old one up when I’m explaining and showing what I did in the old one in this one too?
when you never used a real mixer...
I’m not sure what you’re getting at?
