Dumb Q for you boys 'n girls.
I have up to 24 channels of outputs available to me - 8 of while are lower quality.
I was thinking of mapping these to dedicated headphone mixes (Cue Mixes) for the talent.
DAW's such as cubase should allow me to do aux mixes of this kind.
However, there is delay (latency) involved in the foldback of the instrument to headphones in that case. (e.g. the mic has to go through AD - Processing - DA before making it back to the musician).
Obviously, this is a common problem. My initial thought to resolve this would be to mix a little of the microphone input directly with the DA output, giving you live monitoring on top of DAW mix output. As far as I know, this is already quite popular.
What happens when you have voice effects? if you mixed the DAW output and Live-Mix, then you could face strange phase issues, right?
What do folks do in the real world?
Cheers
