Individual outputs & Main output

Elektron Gear Analog Rytm

Hi guys,

Simple question: Is it possible to have just some instruments come out of individual outs and the rest through the main outs?

I just tried it with the kick, and why it does come out from its individual out, it is also coming out from the main out. It is possible to isolate the individual outs in some way?

Tracks always send to their individual outputs. The settings only allow you to turn off track sends to the main outs and fx.

I do realise they send to their individual outs, but why do they send to the main out as well in this case?

In the settings menu there is a page for audio routing, you’ll be able to disable tracks from going through the main output or fx.

There are lots of reasons why you’d want to do that, eg to feed an fx processor as though it were a send or insert for a particular track.

The question is more, why would you not want the individual outs to be active at all times? I can understand that on some tracks eg you might want the snare separated and on some, mixed, but you should still have an external way of muting the individual out, no? Whether on a mixer or in a DAW.

Thanks VanillaSun

finalform: I use a 24channel external mixer, and up until now, i was feeding every single external out to a channel of the mixer. I do realise however, that I really miss the FX on parameter locks, which are obviously lost when you use individual outs.

So I was thinking of just doing my bass elements (kick & base tom) as individual outs, as those rarely have any FX on them, and the rest (hats, claps, rides) to go via the main outs to a single stereo channel of my mixer. This way I can have the p-locks during my production…

Or can you imagine a simple way to solve my issue?

I’ve got mine setup similarly, all elements are recorded dry and i’ve got only the FX coming out the master feeding into AH for a bit of saturation.

I am kind of stuck on the workflow here. Is there a way to have the FX sends be POST volume on each 1/12 sounds in the Rytm? Thanks

According to the sound architecture figure on p. 13 of the manual, both fx sends are post Amp/Vol, but before Mixer/Track level.

Edit: just trying out and being confused: when I change the track level, it also affects the track’s fx send. I thought that amp vol was pre and track level post fx send, but this seems not how it works… well, back to the discussions on AR gain staging…

Hi, I have a similar (“n00b”) question here,

so finally I have produced my tracks in the state to record them live into external source for later mixing and polishing.

So my question concerns: Is it possible to get more individual outs than 2 for this purpose? Or do I have to do some kinda of a trick to get more than 2 cue separate channels out? (e.g. pan masters far right and left + 2 individual cues = 4?)

Reason to do this is simple: a need for a later mixing and same time to get that live feel in arrangement.

Thanks!

I guess you are talking about the Octatrack and not the Analog Rytm (topic of this post), because the Rytm has individual outs for all of its tracks.

On the Octatrack you are limited to 2 stereo outs (cue + main) or - as you guessed it - use hard panning left/right to get max. 4 mono outs.
