Need Help: Is This Possible?

[Joe-H]

I'm using CoolEdit Pro 2.1 with WinXP and Audiophile 24/96 as my soundcard.

When playing two tracks at the same time in multi-track view, is it possible to route only one track out to a effect processor hardware while being able to listen to both tracks? Say that I playback two tracks in the multi-track view, but I want to add effects to one of the two tracks playing with an outboard effects unit. I still need to listen to both tracks playing. But in order to add effects onto to one of the two tracks (not both), I would have to somehow tell CoolEdit to route one track out into another channel of my mixer and then to my effects unit. Is it possible to do this with CoolEdit Pro and the Audiophile 24/96? The Audiophile 24/96 soundcard has only one L/R output so I don't know how this would be possible to do. Do I need a soundcard with more outputs to do this?

I would greatly appreciate your help.

Hi,
If you have an outboard mixer....you can do it in mono I think...
you have to selct the right outs for each track to go separately....

I send the outs from my card to channels 12 an 14 on my Mackie and monitor that way.....you could loop back to the ins on the card and monitor through the control room on your mixer...
send each track back through your board...one left...one right...and bus the effects on the one you want....
you will have to loop back in to cep to actually track it to the HD though...

just a thought,
Joe

Thanks for the reply joro.

I have a different way to do it. I'm going to send track1 to my old soundcard out to the mixer for monitoring. Track2 will be sent to the Audiophile soundcard out to the mixer for monitoring and adding effects.
