Feels good to know that you're not wasting time when beginning to learn a new application. I can now feel comfortable with the decision to keep MAX/Msp as my "audio plug-in manufactory" until my available computing power makes it possible to replace my pre-loop hardware with all laptop processing. > I had to add one more step to that tutorial and insert a program > change filter on the line between my midi input and the audio > switcher so that I could operate mobius without inadvertantly > changing my vst chains. Nice! I too discovered the pc filter bidule yesterday late night when reading the manual in bed on a laptop. This is great news to med because it means I can keep my FCB1010 pedal with the same MIDI PC bindings as I use with the hardware set-up (tc fireworX). And I can take my time to replace the twenty fireworX sound patches with software multi plug-in setups (eventually also new MAX patches) > Once I had this all laid out I've only had to tweek it a bit but > I've been very happy with the results.

I also put chains of effect plug-ins first then through Mobius and then the Mobius master through a freeverb. I would like to wrap it up with a stereo compressor (Sonalkis, for a more musical mix and to be able balance the mix dynamically from the level of my live input in relation to the Mobius stuff)) but I had to sacrifice that to save up CPU cycles. Instead I still use my external hardware RNC (REally Nice Comporessor) as the last unit before the PA. I'm also having great fun with the SiR convolusion reverb VST plug- in! (tip for you that don't know about SiR). I like to keep it in the beginning, pre loop, and play though it as a performance effect. I have bought amazing convulotion impulses from http:// spiritcanyonaudio.com. That's a cheap way to find unusual effect sounds to play with.
