To cut out all the B/S, this is what I do. I use Cubase. Ok? So, I know its a little cumbersome, but, I record each track at a time as a sequence, then convert it straight to an audio track with the effect. But I only do that for patches that are programed with effects that I like. The ones that arent that big of a deal, I'll record them in Performance mode, then use Cubase for the effects.
Later,
