What are the best practices for using sends and returns in FL Studio mixer?

由人工智能和领英社区提供技术支持

Sends and returns are powerful tools for mixing and processing audio in FL Studio. They allow you to route signals from one or more mixer tracks to another track, where you can apply effects, adjust levels, and create parallel chains. In this article, you will learn the best practices for using sends and returns in FL Studio mixer, such as how to set up send tracks, how to use pre and post fader sends, how to avoid feedback loops, and how to optimize your CPU usage.

1 Send tracks

Send tracks are mixer tracks that receive signals from other tracks via the send knobs. You can use send tracks to apply effects to multiple tracks at once, such as reverb, delay, compression, or EQ. To create a send track, right-click on an empty mixer track and select Track Mode > Send. Then, use the send knobs on the source tracks to adjust how much signal you want to send to the send track. You can also rename and color-code your send tracks for better organization.

Something else to keep in mind: - You can use the send knob in FL to send multiple tracks to one track to consolidate. (Creating a Buss)

2 Pre and post fader sends

Pre and post fader sends are two ways of sending signals from a source track to a send track. Pre fader sends bypass the source track's fader and send the signal at its original level. Post fader sends follow the source track's fader and send the signal at its adjusted level. You can switch between pre and post fader sends by right-clicking on the send knob and selecting Pre/Post. Pre fader sends are useful for creating parallel effects, such as parallel compression or distortion. Post fader sends are useful for creating natural-sounding effects, such as reverb or delay.

3 Feedback loops

Feedback loops are unwanted situations where a signal is sent back to itself, creating a loud and distorted sound. Feedback loops can occur when you send a signal from a track to a send track, and then send the signal back from the send track to the same track. To avoid feedback loops, make sure you mute or lower the send knob on the send track that corresponds to the source track. You can also use the routing window in the mixer to visually check and edit your routing connections.

4 CPU usage

CPU usage is the amount of processing power that your computer uses to run FL Studio and its plugins. When you use sends and returns, especially with multiple effects or high-quality settings, CPU usage can increase. To optimize your CPU usage, try using fewer send tracks, grouping similar tracks together, using effects with low CPU consumption or FL Studio native plugins, low latency settings and buffer size in the audio settings, and smart disable and freeze options to disable or render inactive plugins.

MIDI tracks can use up a lot of CPU, especially when using third-party plugins such as Serum. You can reduce CPU usage by rendering MIDI tracks to audio.
