FX Sends??

[bohunk06]

Some one please help me... I don't know what I am doing wrong. I am trying to use the FX sends in Studio 4 for the first time. Usually I just insert all my FX on each track, but that was really slowing down my maching. So I was told to use the sends. So I set up an FX track for reverb. Then I went to my snare track and set that reverb in my FX send. But I don't hear anything. I tried adjusting the level of send and other things as well, but don't hear any reverb. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!!

Ok, nevermind. I figured it out... I'm just a dumbass. I guess I forgot to consider that the FX send is now a "track". So when I solo'd my snare to adjust the send, it was actually muting the FX channel. Duh!! Solo both the snare and the FX channel and bingo...there it is.

I actually find it a bit annoying in cubase, because it wont automatically unmute an FX track when you create a new send. For example if I solo a track, and start adding new sends, the associated FX tracks stay muted until I unmute them.

Its frustrating at 4am when you trying to write music and your brain doesnt quite work
