Yes hardware is best. Using envy24control or mudita24,
go to the
patchbay tab and select "Digital Mix L" and "Digital Mix R" as your
output to 1and 2 outputs. Then on the first tab "Monitor Inputs"
unmute the track(s) you are using for mic in and set the levels where
you want. Then goto the next tab "Monitor PCMs" and set the levels of
the audio coming from the Ardour tracks you already have. That will
setup your monitor mix. The ardour inputs will see the levels set by
the analog volume controls
Works quite nicely. Moreover, I found out that it is possible to
route, using QJackCtl, individual Ardour track outputs to other playback
inputs (3,4,5, ... 1 and 2 being for Ardour's main mix) and then create
a custom monitoring mix using envy24control. That's great.
Although it seems the number of Ardour tracks can easily outgrow the
number of system playback inputs. I've never used busses in Ardour.
Next I will try to group certain tracks in a bus, then have the output
of a bus routed in a system playback input.
Is it possible to save and recall envy24control and QJackCtl
setups to save time in wiring stuff ?
Thanks.
