PatchMIx DSP
PatchMix DSP offers unmatched flexibility in routing your audio between physical
inputs/outputs, virtual (ASIO/WAVE) inputs/outputs, internal hardware effects and
buses. No external mixer is needed. You can add digital effects, EQs, meters, level
controls and ASIO/WAVE sends anywhere you like in the signal chain.
Because the effects and mixing are hardware-based, you can record using effects with
near zero-latency. You can even record a dry signal while monitoring yourself with
effects!
(See “The Order of Effects” on page 57.)
Mixer setups can be saved and
instantly recalled for specific purposes such as recording, mixdown, jamming, special
effect setups, playing games, watching DVDs, or general computer use.
You’ll want to keep up with the latest software and options for your E-MU digital audio
