Creating the ULTIMATE Axe-FX Rig (Wet, Dry, Dry, Wet)

[@bb-sw6ur]

Another informative video! I dont know if youve covered this but Ive been stuck on figuring out how to record wet, dry and DI tracks with SPDIF on my FM9. Getting the word clock settings right on my fractal, audio interface and daw right is a puzzle. Thanks again dude

Good idea! I'll look into it!

I really used to love the wet, dry, wet sound back when I was playing my Boogie dry with a stereo power amp with effects out through my effects loop. There really is no better way to maintain solid, defined headroom especially with a lot of delay and reverb...the dry channel really helps the guitar signal to sit well in the mix. I really enjoyed this video and was just trying to wrap my head around what you did with the mixer (it finally dawned on me after watching the video a couple of times that the two "dry" channels are actually a result of using dual amps)...channels 13 / 14 on your mixer are handling the two mono amp chains via output 1 from the Fractal while channels 15 / 16 are handling the stereo effects chain out of output 2 from the Fractal? I was also curious as to what digital interface you were using with your Studio One? I have been using a StudioLive 8 channel mixer as an interface to be able to mix various sources along with my FM9 but noticed that I had the same 32 channel mixer as you used in the video in my Universal Control as well. I am definitely going to be experimenting with this set up. Thanks!

Essentially yes, that's how I have things routed however due to easier cabeling set up, I used 13/14 for wet and 15 for a dry amount and 16 for the other dry. My interface is a StudioLive 16 console mixer running USB. I used Universal Control to show what I was doing on the console. I actually didn't capture the audio with Studio One, I ran my camera and screen capture and mixer into OBS to record everything at once. Might do a video explaining my video set up if that would be interesting.
