Using Sends and the Auxiliary Bus

Multitrack sessions in Acoustica are automatically set up with an Auxiliary Bus (Aux Bus). This makes it possible to route audio from each track for effects processing.

The most common usage is to add reverberation on the auxiliary bus. This reduces CPU usage since only one instance of the reverb processor is required and the amount of reverb for each track can be set using the Send knobs in each track pane:

Each track pane has a Send knob (rightmost knob, left of the Level Meter) that controls the output level to the auxiliary bus.

The Auxiliary bus has controls for volume, pan, effect inserts just like the master bus:

The Auxiliary (Aux) bus is indicated above by the red rectangle.

Just like effects inserted in a track, you can add effects using the Processing Chain button which opens the a processing chain control (see The Processing Chain).
