Easy Setup of Loopback in TotalMix FX

[@error8418]

This feature alone has saved me so many headaches (and patchcables).

[@RMEAudio]

Couldn't agree more ;-)

[@Galaxis-X]

We need more videos about TotalMix FX Settings too, properly setup entire settings explenation as well routing and microphone chanel signal setup

[@RMEAudio]

Anything in particular apart from mic setups?

[@Galaxis-X]

@@RMEAudio for example i setup my new Condenser microphone on 48v and my signal shows only the left chanel when is active also by recording, can be also signal on L and R chanel as well or it is correct like that the green peaks only on L?

[@RMEAudio]

That is correct, since your microphone is a mono source. Check out our video about mono channels for a better understanding. :)

@@RMEAudio I am still having problems sending signal to my outboard gear. I always get a wierd hollow feedback sound.

[@Galaxis-X]

@@RMEAudio also i have problems when i want to activate my Headphones and if want to compare something to switch quickly from Monitors and Headphones, if you can make explanation about routing Headphones and recieving signal at same time on Monitors as well and how to save that to stay as permanent setup🙏😊

[@cherfr6]

Could you detail the recording in a DAW - REAPER preferably ? I want to see the Reaper's Routing Matrix, and other recording settings on the Record track. Thanks.

Hi. I use UCX1 and use 4 stereo loopbacks. this leads to me losing the input channels the loopbacks are routed into. does UCX2 allow me to not lose the ADAT/SPDIF input channels, if i use ADAT/SPDIF output channels with loopback?

[@RMEAudio]

The loopback signal has always priority. You have to use an unused channel.

[@LacklusterOfficial]

@@RMEAudio i'm wondering, how many loopbackable channels does ucx2 offer me? should i upgrade from ucx1 to ucx2 just so i could get loopback channels without losing adat out and adat in?

[@shubhshinde4438]

I record my vocals from the baby face pro lound and clear but after looking into the logic meter it shows that the signal is -25 dB how?

[@davidlai1996]

Can programs like Audacity or Windows audio mixer in general see the loopback channel? Because of my workflow, I'll need Windows to "see" the loopedback input channels so I can use them for recording or streaming, Zoom, Audacity, ETC. Thanks!

[@tedgerard333]

It does come in handy for recording stuff off the internet.

[@RMEAudio]

Indeed ;-)

[@drabbster]

Thanks! Finally able to use my studio-mics for Videocalls, thanks to this

[@RMEAudio]

Glad we can help you :-)

[@Jim951cup]

I want to use loopback to route the audio from a microphone connected to my Fireface UFX II to a video call app (Zoom etc.) but Zoom only sees inputs 1&2. Is there a more convenient way to avoid feedback (from the microphone to the monitor speakers) than to switch off the monitors at each call?

[@josephlandman1402]

Hi, guys, do you know if i can loopback a 14 channel signal? Im using a RME Fireface UC, Thanks!

[@krass76]

This feature is sooo useful for running system audio through VST plugins! Imagine, reference sound, all the time, outside and inside your DAW (so you can get used to it)! routing: system audio -> SPDIF out -> loopback to SPDIF in -> Blue Cat Patchwork (Math Audio RoomEQ/EQ for headphones + Ircams HRTF) -> analog out 1+2 since RME interfaces have low latency and CPU overhead due to good drivers, there basically is no drawback. Thank you RME!

[@RMEAudio]

Thank you :-)

[@nickgoogle4525]

Just Equalizer APO to have Math Audio Room EQ systemwide available. I use that all the time. Downside is that no ASIO applications are supported. Those you can host in Cantabile light and there have the audio go to the Mathaudio VST. I use that also for SPDIF input (CD) to filter it through MathAudio.

[@bharathj63]

Is there a limit on the number of loopback channels? As in the ufx3 for example, can you have 64 loopback channels?

[@RMEAudio]

Every output channel can be set to be a loopback channel.

[@johnhunter4181]

"Loopback will increase your workflow and boost your creativity" - then we get a 2 minute video on how to make the Loopback button to turn orange! - and that is about it. Now we can all destroy our hearing and tweeters with 100w of 'sophisticated' digital feedback. Yes I've seen the loopback button and I can make it go orange - I didn't need a video to manage that, but how about you actually explain how loopback might be used and how the heck it will boost creativity?

[@piano.university3346]

This does not work here with my new Babyface PRO FS. I am pretty familiar with RME since I am endorsed by you. But I work with OBS and want to get a stereo out signal including sounds from my mac (spotify). I sent the Playback to Adat 7/8 and then turn Adat7/8 up on my output 1/2. But I do not get sound. How can I get a proper Stereo Out sound with this?

[@glances.]

Love this feature, although I'm curious as to why the level on the mic is higher than what the loopback channel shows (usually like 3db difference). I see this on my own system as well.

[@everope]

Summed from stereo to mono = louder on meter

[@glances.]

@@everope since I've made my comment I've learned this, haha! Thank you though!

[@sebastiandior1315]

This can be used for bussing correct?

[@RMEAudio]

Sorry, but what do you mean by bussing? Loopback send the output signal back to the software input. You could use it to send audio to different software applications coming from other software.

[@sebastiandior1315]

@ i mean using it as a bus to combine inputs to one output. Bussing.

[@RMEAudio]

@@sebastiandior1315 For that you do not need loopback. That works just by routing inputs to outputs. But if you want to record that particular output, you need to activate loopback.

[@jprecords3603]

I don't know why it doesn't working on my computer. I am using Mac book pro 2018

[@ploytuell1332]

don't get it. why I don't just record the input channel to the DAW?!

[@error8418]

Doesn't make much sense with a microphone as shown here for demonstration purposes, but it allows you to route the output of any other software into your DAW.

Please make the loopback Channel have an Orange Color instead of nothing in it

coool i have an army-interface!!

[@myrtoch.9621]

huh? it doesn't work

[@chizzulwinduh1941]

@RMEAudio should be embarrassed and shamed by the really, very poor tutorials they publish. No real updated videos for the present day Totalmix, really poor communication and teaching skills, this is so bad. RME needs to get a 3rd party to do their tutorials for them, and one that knows the software and hardware and aren't following a German technical translated script. I can't believe they allow this amateurish, incomprehensible garbage to represent their excellent, world beating products. Get your hands in your pockets RME and pay for a proper tutorial library that people can actually use and understand. In this day and age, there is also a job in Software Development called UX, User Experience, hire some of those as well.
