Re: effective mobius,mixer and soundcard routing

[kkissinger@kevinkissinger.com]

Regardless of the mixer, to accomplish what you want you would need to  
configure your looper (in this case, your laptop/Mobius system) as a  
SEND EFFECT.

The profx8 has two Sends, namely the MON and FX sends.

Since you want to use your onboard reverb your FX send is already tied  
up, so that leaves the MON send.

For your return (I assume you want a stereo return) use either your  
9/10 or 11/12 strip.  This will allow you to send your laptop's output  
to the FX buss.  Be sure that your MON send is turned down -- else you  
will get feedback.  Also, make sure that the FX to MON pot is turned  
down else you'll get feedback.

Remember, you don't have to use the ST RETURN to return send effects.   
Also, the ST return can be used as two additional mixer inputs  
(although this input doesn't have any EQ, panning, or sends).

The MAIN OUT will go to your speakers.

Hope this helps :)
