So... gdiy friends, truth be told I simply don't have that much experience using aux's outside of a daw.
For this reason I value your opinions, not only on feature suggestions, but creative examples of use, as this will help me get a better understanding of what to add or not to the modules.
For example, Abby pointed out that a hpf on the send bus may not be necessary as some fx gear would make the feature redundant.
Ian mentioned solo is not necessary, but a mute would make sense. Mutes just on the send module or also on the return?
(Edit: Assigning returns to the mixbus is the mute/on button in a way... Same with aux sends. : : ) Or is there something I'm overlooking? CV's for global aux mutes / fx mute automation?
On the creative side, I'm open to ideas. Would a phase switch be helpful? I can imagine flipping a verb, delay, etc. out of phase with the source might allow for some interesting results...
And lastly pan... my 6 aux channels are mono but each pair share a pre/post fade button, so...pan's on the send (cue imaging) and perhaps also on returns (fx imaging)?
Looking over a DDA CS8 skiz today , the aux section does not appear to deal with pan, only a balancing output scheme, so perhaps I'm overthinking this...
Thanks for trudging through questions on this fairly simple part of the console... Last one (for now): Should returns be assignable to group buses as well as stereo mix?
Thank you in advance for any thoughts you may have!
