Hey Dick,
no need to throw shade at me. As I wrote in the original post “he insisted”. Against my recommendation that was, as I of course usually record a dry signal and effect it later. And as I wrote “I’ve never had to use it’ because people are usually convincable to not record an impure signal. He wasn’t and I’m not gonna argue with him when he insists and as long as he pays, he shall get what he wants. In the end it didn’t even matter for that session because it turned out he was woefully underprepared and he isn’t scheduled for another two weeks. If I have misinterpreted your tone then please ignore the “shade”-thing.
Anyway thanks for the information. I knew the jacks are simply marked as input but my old boards, from when I was still doing analog recording, all had the function to plug an Insert effect for live stuff so I thought “what the hell, let’s just try” and was surprised when at least some effect was added to the signal, dry as it may have been.
I don’t have the wiring diagram in my head and I don’t know what software magic A&H may have sprinkled in there, that’s what got me to ask here.
So to summarize:
On the Qu’s there is no intended way to do Insert effects. I don’t do live stuff, but even for that it would be a Send/Return FX loop or onboard effects.
