It only allows the slots and I think a few other options like the spdif.
The LS9 does not allow you to use "any" input and "any" output for insert send and return, which is stupid. This channels fed the rest of the desk as usuall. From the octa capture outputs I went trs to xlr into 8 more channels which were zero'd out. Today I had channels to burn on an LS9 so I took 8 mics to post fader insert sends to my 8 channel output card then to trs into my octa capture. I tested it as much as I could using the demo. I bought the waves multirack and hte Dugan. Soundgrid / Digigrid isn't something I am interested in due to the cost, though it can work well.Ĭheck out Waves' plugin latency chart, linked below - basically anything listed as more than 0 will likely be off your list: More do-able IMHO for FOH applications, more a challenge if dealing with monitors. With a fast laptop and a very low latency audio interface at 96K, if you are very careful about choosing only the more basic plugins with the lowest latency (ie no linear phase, signature series, etc) you could probably arrive at something usable, and with a few gigs under your belt you might get on well with it like John P seems to be doing. I guess it depends on your application and level of tolerance. I gave it a try a few years ago and found that it was fine for reverbs and delays, but for things like compressors, gates, sample replacers etc there was obvious latency, and manually managing the latency was frankly a headache, even though it was doable.
Easier done if you don't have to worry about monitors from FOH and those latency considerations. To deal with this you would need to implement delay on each channel of the console that was NOT routed through Multirack to account for the multirack latency, or route all of the channels NOT in multirack to a buss and apply delay to that buss (assuming your console supports this or you burn up one of your interface IO's sending an unprocessed signal as a buss insert through multirack to inherit its delay).

It helps you calculate the delay each plugin will incur and can delay all of your interface's outputs to match the delay of the plugin with the most latency, but when you combine plugin latency plus the latency of your ASIO or CoreAudio driver (even at 96K with low buffer settings), there is noticeable delay incurred. Harry, the latency issue using Waves Multirack is a headache. Mainly I'm just ignorant as to how this all works. This is just a simpler way to do that, if it works. Back in the 1990s I carried my own FX rack with gates comps and DSP. If there is a desk with the artist, and the mix is there, I am inclined to go with it.
I can't go after tours until my last short person is ready for prime time and that is still 5-10 years away.
I'm also trying to land more fill in work on the live music side. Be nice to have this stuff in the kit I already carry and rather than request a dugan card a yamaha desk, just have tis in my kit for rental back to the client. Tomorrow I fill in for someone for 3 days and I don't even know what gear will be there. I am never on the same desk twice in a row. Then I'd like to be able to use the FX as well for other things. If logic prevailed I would not own 5 Earthworks mics for a measurement rig! My number one first purchase would be the Dugan plugin.
