One of my mates is migrating, so is in the process of getting rid of most of his unwanted and bulky possessions.
He's giving me a load of guitar pedals that are too knacked to sell but still work, distortion, phase, compression etc.
I wanna test them out with Ableton, as I don't really play guitar anymore.
What's the best way of doing this?
My interface is an M-Audio Fast Track Ultra, which has lots of inputs/outputs (most of mine don't work as I bought it dirt cheap), it also has 'inserts' but I think they only affect signal between the input and the ADC.
The way I was planning was to have a signal running out of outputs 3/4 (1/2 are connected to my monitors) and then from the output through the pedals back into inputs on the interface for Ableton to record from, with monitoring off, so no feedback.
Is there a more efficient way of doing this with send and returns, as I've only used outboard effects with mixing desks that do this with auxs and S/R.
Any tips would be great
