| 990110. In one of our former 'State of Affairs' articles
on the Editorial Page, we once made a joke about an undocumented feature of the EWS64XL, a
third Output. To our surprise Sascha Düx sent us an email that in fact it's possible to
create such a third Output! So give it a try. There actually is an undocumented
'Out-3' or at least the possibility to have three simultanous stereo-outputs: Set the
output switch (Control Panel) to "A". The analog Out-1 now functions as CODEC
Output, while the Digital Out-1 still works as SYNTHESIZER Out-1!
If your software allows multi driver output routing (Samplitude Studio does), you can e.g.
route a stereo Drumloop to Codec play, a stereo Vocal track to Wave play #1 and a stereo
guitar track to Wave play #2.
Select "4 ch" Wav output in the FX-Panel, set Wave #1 to 100% Out-1 and Wave
Play #2 to 100% Out-2 in the Virtual Channels.
Now you should hear the stereo Drumloop at analog Out-1, the stereo Vocals at digital
Out-1 and the stereo guitar both at analog and Digital Out-2.
I have tried this, and it works (I used my DAT-recorder as a DA converter to listen to
digital Out-1). |
