I’ve been doing more multitrack recording from my Digitone using Overbridge and it’s super helpful for bringing sketches into my DAW and fleshing out full songs.
However I noticed an odd oversight - I use Reaper so I just pin out the 8 track outputs to individual tracks and record all 4 tracks in real time. But I noticed yesterday when recording a track that the FX sends don’t seem to record on the track?
So the specific scenario here that I’m struggling with is that when you have a drum pattern with, say, snares and hats, you send (p-lock) your hihats to the delay set to 16th notes in order to get a 16th note pattern on the hats. But when I recorded the track I noticed that it was dry, so no hi-hat patterns.
Is there something I’m missing here? How can I record the FX for individual tracks?
As a workaround, I pinned out a new send for the Main L/R and the effects do appear there, but of course it’s all the tracks, not just the drums. Is there a muting trick that might help here, or any other tips?
