    11.2. More than 2 send/return per channel In case you have more than one group on your CGM system, you can use the direct out of a channel linked to a group, patching it to the mono input of another channel linked to another group: in this way you’ll use the RED VCA of the original channel, and its CV, to shape the amplitude of your signal, then on the second, add the 3rd and 4th parallel send to it, taking advantage of the second group.

  • Page 10: Serial Send/Return (And Feedbacks)

    11.3. Serial send/return (and feedbacks) Let’s put it simple: the two sends are patched with a delay and a reverb. Now you want that also the delayed signal has reverb, but you can’t since the sends work in parallel. You can bypass this setting the return of the delay on a channel linked to the group of the delay and reverb, and gradually increase the amount of reverb send on that signal too.
