Hi To all.
For me, Home recording is a Hobby and it is not my main profession.
I just have fun from time to time.
And from that, this is my simple setup
Just for Clarifying diagram shows only one Interface, one preamp, one sim, and one compressor.
i have separate only inputs and outputs.
I'm making beats/melodies, sometimes sound design, recording 1 or 2 guitars, and making myself occupied with some fun activities.
I'm using Reaper
Recently I purchased Art Mpa II and DBX 1066 for 2 reasons
1. I have a lot of professional training and workshops that I'm Making from home Online.
2. Just to have some fun
I decided that I what to try to use the external compressor with the recorded audio, Guitar, melodies, beats etc....
But I hit a hard rock.
From Focusrite 4I4 output 3and4 goes to DBX comp and then the output goes to the same Focusrite4I4 In 1 and 2.
Unfortunately, a nasty feedback loop is happening when I try to record a -12-6db level.
Do you think, looking into my setup, that I mess something up, or my audio card is just not made for that?
Sorry if my questions are very noob but I have never tried using the external analog units with my Daw.
Thanks in advance.
