Hi everyone,
I’m trying to make sure that I’m recording my MD in the best way possible. Basically, I have two separate, balanced TRS cables running out of the MD’s main outs, left and right. They are going in to inputs one and two on the front of my Focusrite interface, and then within Ableton I have a separate track armed for each channel/input of the Focusrite (as opposed to one stereo track). Gravy.
My question is…since there are dedicated outputs for both left and right, how would I go about running the MD through something like a delay pedal? Would it have to be a special pedal with left and right inputs on the back? Obviously I wouldn’t want to just effect the left or right channel, and adding the pedal after the interface in the chain isn’t an option, since the Focusrite obviously goes in to my computer via USB.
Sorry for what’s clearly a very stupid question, but I’m admittedly dense when it comes to even the most basic of audio engineering…
