From what I understand, the Insert I/O is a TRS effects loops. The usage would be to plug your mic into your board, then run a loop from the Insert to your EQ/Comp/Etc. back to your insert. Correct?
My question is: Why bother with the Insert loop? What do you gain (besides gain staging, no pun intended)? It sounds smarter to me to run the mic through the EQ/Comp/Etc., THEN into the board. OR run the mic into the board and route through the effect aux sends. But, I don't see what is gained by going into the mixer, out the insert, back in the insert, and beyond.
Can someone shed some light on this one?
Thanks!
