2.1.4 Rack types: Stereo, Mono, Mono to Stereo .......................
Similar to outboard gear, the Waves Racks are configured to work in different modes:
Stereo processing: stereo channel insert, master, stereo groups, stereo in-ears
Mono processing: individual mono channels, mono Aux EQ’s etc..
Mono to Stereo: reverbs, delays etc…
There are 2 new buttons in the routing panel, just beneath the ripple route controls. These are mono > mono and mono > stereo
When routing a mono channel to a Waves rack, the signal can be routed to either the left side of the Waves rack, by selecting the mono >
mono function; or to both sides of the Waves rack, by selecting the mono > stereo function. If a stereo channel is routed to a Waves rack,
the left and right sides of the source channel feed the left and right sides of the Waves rack.
When a mono source is routed to a Waves rack, MultiRack will display that rack with a single mono input. Note that, depending on the
plugins inserted into the rack (ie. Reverbs) , the output of the rack may still be stereo. If this mono in, stereo rack is used as an insert on a
mono channel, only one side of the racks stereo output will feed the channels mono insert return.
If routing 2 mono channels to the Left and Right sides of a single Waves rack, a combination of ripple routing 2 channels and mono >
mono routing will achieve the desired result.
Waves Racks types are set by default through Console’s routing:
Depending on type of input (mono or stereo) Waves will automatically load the correct Rack type.
For Mono to Stereo configuration ( Reverb) turn on mono>stereo button
