2.5 Digital Sends and Returns
When using the StudioLive as an audio interface, it is important to understand
the terms “digital send” and “digital return.” Because the audio interface
in the StudioLive is completely integrated with the other functions of the
mixer, the USB I/O is designed to work as an independent bus. You can
route (send) signals from other buses to the digital transport bus, and its
output (return) signal is hard-coded to designated mixer channels.
The StudioLive 16.0.2 USB 18 available sends and 16 returns.
2.5.1 Channel Digital Sends
Every Digital Send is hard-coded to be sent pre-fader from the input channels of the
StudioLive. These sends can be pre- or post-Fat Channel EQ and dynamics.
To record the EQ and dynamics processing on any channel, simply enable the
Post button in the Digital Out section. It will illuminate, indicating that the
Fat Channel signal path is being routed to the Digital Send. If this mode is not
enabled, the signal sent will be post-trim and post-analog insert (if applicable).
There also is an additional pair of Digital Sends dedicated to record the
Main bus. These sends are always post-Fat Channel and post-fader.
