Audio And Fx [Mixer]; Parallel] Routing - Arturia TAE ORIGIN User Manual

Table of Contents

Five tabs are available along the top left of the LCD screen: the [MIXER], [2D ENV], [GALAXY],

[LFO1] and [LFO2]. The following section describes all these tabs in detail.

8.3.2

Audio and Fx [Mixer].

The [Mixer] tab allows you to adjust the volume, panning and FX routing of all the output VCAs

([Out 1, 2, 3 and 4]).

The left part of the mixer tab is composed of four identical columns representing the settings for

each VCA. On the top you can find the [FX 1, 2 and 3] knobs, in the middle the pan knob and at the

bottom the volume slider. The functioning of these knobs differs slightly depending on the current

mode of the mixer. Origin's effect mixer offers two modes to route the VCAs to the effects:

[Parallel] and [Serial]. The currently selected mode is displayed in the middle section of the mixer

tab. Below we will describe the functioning of both modes in more detail.

8.3.2.1

In [Parallel] mode, Origin's FX mixer works in a send/return configuration often found on mixing

desks. For each VCA you can control the amount of signal sent to all individual effects. The outputs

of all the effects are mixed with the "dry" output signals and then sent to the [Main] output. In this

mode the knobs function as follows:

[FX 1, 2, 3]: These knobs control the amount of signal sent to the corresponding effect.

When [pre] is selected on the [pre/post] switch in the middle section (see below), these

knobs function pre-fader. This means that the amount of signal sent to the effects is not

influenced by the volume slider of the VCA. For example if one VCA has its volume slider

all the way at the bottom, it can still be heard through the effects. When [post] is

selected (post fader configuration) the amount of signal sent to the effects is influenced

by the main volume slider of the VCA. This means that when a VCA has its volume slider

all the way at the bottom, it cannot send any signal to the effects.

[Pan]: These knobs control the panoramic placement of the VCA. This knob controls the

same parameter as the pan knob found on the corresponding VCA module in the [Edit]

page.
