Haven’t updated yet and won’t have the time to for a while,
Can anyone tell me if we are able to create our own mic/layer mixer channels in GA6 like the factory kits have?
It’s very cumbersome assigning layers to outputs over and over again for example a snare that has multiple mics/layers but also different articulations/strikes across multiple pads.
I’d like it to be this simple:
- I drag in 4 samples onto a pad, Layer Mode
1.)Top (mono)
2.)Bottom (Mono)
3.)Overheads (Stereo)
4.)Room (Stereo)
- I hit a button - ‘Create Layer Mixer Group’
- GA prompts me to name the Layer Mixer Group - i type ‘Snare’ an hit enter.
- It creates a Snare Layer group, of which I can now pick from a menu when I create all the other snare multi-layer pads. And so long as I get the layering in the same order (via proper sample naming), everything will work.
I can then have the option of A.) summing the Snare Layer mixer to a single Snare Sum output that goes to Cubase, or B.) I can assign each Snare Layer to an individual output (and perhaps simultaneously a sum - maybe each Layer Mixer Group should get a sub main bus) to Cubase.
Either way, I only have to do that work ONCE for all symmetrical multi-layer snare pads.
The other major benefit to this, is when saving a GA pad as an instrument preset, it can save with this Layer Mixer, and when they go to load it, the mixer just shows up in GA mixer as the Instrument Name… It would be way better because, some times currently loaded kits have outputs set in a way that don’t match with the preset instrument.
