I have a Tascam M224 mixer and have 2 questions about effects loops:
1-I think I know how to hook up my compressor or echo unit into the effects loop, but I want to make sure:
send of effects loop to input of compressor
output of compressor to return of effects loop
Is it really that easy? Are there any drawbacks doing this when recording? Can I chain my echo unit in there too?
2-The M224 has an FRL send and return, which looks like another effects loop (maybe the "L" in FRL stands for loop?) I don't have a manual for the board yet. Is it simply another effects loop?
Thanks!
