    Once again, great stuff. After a couple of years of loving their product with what I *could* do with it, but knowing I was seriously missing the proverbial boat, I'm starting to feel like I can build out the multiple routings I've been needing for quite some time. Great stuff and much appreciated!

    As relates to cumulative latencies when using AD/DA conversions in series in my post below, I just did some checking on the M-32 AD and DA conversion latencies which, I believe, may be somewhat close to the converters in the UFX+ that is being used in this example. I checked the UFX + manual and could not locate AD DA sample latency numbers, but using the M-32 specs, after the oversampling computations…
    At 48kHz sample rate the DA conversion is .6ms
    At 48kHz sample rate the AD conversion is .77ms
    …..so a round trip conversion would be 1.3ms.
    To my thinking, using Totalmix as a patchbay to route signals to/from two analog devices at 48kHZ would introduce :
    0.77ms on the initial signal AD conversion
    1.30ms on the ADDA through the compressor
    1.30ms on the ADDA through the EQ
    3.37ms total
    ….before the signal hits the DA (0.6ms).
    Wouldn’t this 3.37ms latency create an “actual” out of phase relationship with other tracks being played back through Totalmix? As I mentioned, I thought I noticed some phasing.
    This is not meant as criticism. I really love these tutorials and appreciate your efforts in explaining the potential available in Totalmix .
    Much respect.

    Thank you! Until now (and for 10 years since I have UFX 1) I had neither insert nor need for complex rooting. I had gradually created a template corresponding to my needs without ever retouching it too much for fear of losing my settings. Today, thanks to your 3 videos that I just discovered, I was able to dive back into this wonderful and powerful software that is Totalmix and get the most out of it, with a view to a significant change in my workflow. Thank you and thank you again for your patience in these many explanations. Your approach is that of the teacher that we would all have liked to have had during our studies!

    There’s always good better and best. As you’ve stated; there are hardly any usable tutorials of TotalMix FX but now I found the best tutorial of RME TotalMix FX software on the channel [ RME USA Audio - Synthax ]. The video is called “An In Depth Look At TotalMix FX”. Although it does not deal with all the options within TotalMix FX, it covers a lot of them and in a very pleasant way and pace without any hesitation due to repeating itself over and over again; so the learning pace is very well timed and it gets one over that "hump", you mentioned, within seven minutes, so no steep learning curve. Also it is far more less overwhelming and less distracting due to the use of also a smaller interface instead of showing and labeling the endless rows of inputs, playbacks and outputs again and again. So you can save yourself a ton of time and effort by watching that video yourself, to learn what topics are not covered and how to improve your didactic skills. Hope this helps.

    Thank you Barry. This helped me a LOT! Now all I need is more I/O for my interface. I'm acquiring enough hardware that the 8 channels on my interface just isn't enough. I have an old Fireface UC that doesn't have MADI and has only 1 ADAT port. I have plans to get a Focusrite Clarett OctoPre so I can get 8 more channels of ADAT-accessible I/O. The Pulse 16 would be great but I don't have enough ports on my old interface to access all 16 channels. For now, 8 additional I/O ports will be enough for the hardware I have. There are always work-arounds if I need to daisy chain hardware devices. They are all in my patch bays so I can just re-patch things if necessary.

    • @PurpleMusicProductions

    Great video! I'm a beginner so a lot of trial and error and YT videos to go through. All the hardware you've got I'll never have so I'm dependent to a DAW, in my case Reaper, using a RME UCX II as my interface to record and have fx applied to my signals. In the RME UCX II goes a Prophet 12 synth, a Roland TR 8 S, a microfone and a guitar. Out go my two monitors and a headphone. To me it seems easier to have all that hardware instead of having only three hardware outputs; left and right monitor and headphones. I find it a steep learning curve to learn how to use TotalMix combined with recording in a DAW. As far as I understood your videos so far I'll need the loopback function on the outgoing channels in TotalMix to record in Reaper. BTW: you are right about needing a signal indicator on the input channels one loops back to.
    I'm looking forward to more videos about TotalMix. Subscribed.

    Incredible. RME really dropped the ball with producing effective tutorials on Totalmix. You knocked the ball out of the park! Thank you for this. At some point I would really love to see a video that explains how you have your converters are connected to all the outboard gear. In particular how do you use the Ferrofish pulse within the RME ecosystem? Is the Pulse connected to your RME converter? Thanks so much.

    • @chrisscott7092
      @chrisscott7092 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Don't overthink it. The Pulse 16 is just additional IO. Connect it to the UFX+/3 via Madi and you're in business. The Pulse 16 is an AD/DA but in practice you will never think about it.

    You managed to sum up in 30 min what took me probably days to finally figure out!
    What many might find helpful imo is a quickie on routing a stereo source to a mono input only outboard gear. Best I figure is first splitting the stereo source to two mono channels, then sending each at a time, recording the corresponding receive channel/track x 2. Complicated with very little room for error but with some rewarding results if done correctly. Any other method (other than recommending buying an identical pair!). Thanks.

  • @julesc8054

    I'm wondering if the Matrix view of the mixer wouldn't be better for this type of routing. It will give a better over view of the mixer state and allow you to more easily see any levels that should not be routed.
    Start off by having both the matrix and the mix window open and visible when you make adjustments in the total mix mix window and this way learn where your most used X-points are. Once you are familiar with the matrix mixer setup a total mix view preference to remove excess crospoints and transition to the matrix mixer. The shortcut keys for opening both the matrix and mixer windows should also help with this.

    You seem very knowledgeable with this software, thanks for all the info. The problem I'm having is this: Instead of wanting to record through my hardware like you explain here, I'm trying to slap a hardware compressor across my mixbus. I have it all set up hardware wise right (7-8 out of the Fireface into the comp back out the comp into 7-8 of the Fireface.) Great. The problem is when I pull up 7-8 on Totalmix im getting phasey feedback. Ive tried everything I can think of. Please tell me you can help. FRUSTRATED!

  • @johnc.4625
    @johnc.4625 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Hey Barry, how are the converters in the Ferrowfish vs the RME. I’m considering the same setup, however using the Ferrowfish as adat for the db sub connections , l believe it means the AD conversion coming back from the hardware will be done at the Ferrowfish not the Rme. Was wondering about the Ferrowfish converters. Thank you.

  • @petersmith374
    @petersmith374 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Thanks for this Barry! Just transitioning to RME UCX II from Presonus Studio 192 interface and Studio One. In my previous setup, I just used the PipelineXT plugin in Studio One on the main bus to route signal to my outboard bus compressor and thought I could do the same thing with RME. However I have not been able to achieve the same result. With the plugin enabled, it seems that there is some signal bleeding in addition to return signal from the outboard gear creating some phasing but I can't see where it is coming from in TotalMix. Have you tried using Pipeline XT? If I can't get it to work then I guess I can achieve the same result using some additional bussing, but not as convenient and not as easy to be able to switch between the dry and processed signal just by enabling/disabling the Pipeline XT plugin.

  • @tatuparssinen
    @tatuparssinen ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Great stuff! Just wondering, you will introduce an additional da and ad conversion for each hardware piece whereas with something like manual patching or flock you do the da+ad only once for the track. And even better if you utilize analog summing you would have da only once for each track and only one ad for the final 2bus (preferably with higher quality ad-converter). But is this a non-issue?

    • @BarryJohns
      @BarryJohns  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Yea you will be doing additional DA/AD this way. The conversion is very good so I don’t concern myself with that. I do have patchbays, that all my gear is connected to so if I’m tracking on the way in, I patch them, if doing hardware inserts there is of course DA/AD happening.

  • @robertjoyce8527
    @robertjoyce8527 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Sooooo….. to create separate cue mixes for zero latency tracking and send/return from a hardware reverb processor for the performers instead of using the Totalmix DSP….I think I’ve got my head around it but need to play around with it a bit.

  • @theaustindude
    @theaustindude 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

  • @athonygraham8353
    @athonygraham8353 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great video Barry, thank you very much for doing these. When you go in and out of different hardware units in series, is it correct to say that the signal is being AD/DA converted each time? Is there a way to pass out of one hardware unit and into another without AD/DA conversion, using TotalMix without physically cabling them together in series? I hope I'm making sense here.

    • @BarryJohns
      @BarryJohns  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yea for each path you would have conversion happening, same as you would for hardware inserts. It’s doing the patching digitally, but you still have to have the conversion occur each time it goes in and out of your interface. Modern interfaces have outstanding conversion so the going out and back in would not be noticeable. If using an older RME that may not be the case.
      This would be the difference between doing the routing in totalmix vs a patchbay.

    Hey, really appreciate your videos. Ive recently acquired a UFX iii and a pulse 16 MX, using Madi for the 16 i/o. loving the quality. Thanks for another video explaining the routing matrix for the pulse 16, really helped me speed up the learning curve, its working great. Im currently trying to figure out how to route the FX (Dynamics and EQ) to a software playback channel so i can monitor it from my DAW and be able to use midi mapped hardware for muting and unmuting but cannot figure it out for the life of me. With all the routing capabilities, there must be a way to monitor and record the fx from total mix into my DAW. Any help is much appreciated. thanks.

  • @robertjoyce8527
    @robertjoyce8527 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Given that you have enough I/O (AD/DA) converters, this would eliminate the need for a hardware patchbay, however,….when used for committing a compressed, EQ’ed signal to DAW during tracking, it would also increase the number of AD/DA conversions vs using physical patch cables, plugging the output of a preamp > input of a compressor > output of comp > input of EQ > output of EQ > AD conversion to DAW(one AD conversion)
    Whereas, by using Totalmix routing as the patchbay, unless I’m missing something and the internal patching does create AD/AD conversions between devices physically patched to the AD/DA converters of the RME FF UFX+….
    Output of preamp > AD converter #1 > DA converter #1> compressor AD converter #2> DA compressor converter #2 > AD EQ converter #3> DA EQ converter #3>AD converter#4 > DAW (three AD/DA conversions and one final AD conversion to commit the processed signal to DAW….
    Each in series, A/D D/A round trip is going to add cumulative latency into the signal chain. Are you hearing any phasing? I think I may be but I am listening to this on an iPad, not at my workstation…..
    If the hardware was being inserted on channels in a DAW at I’m down with latency compensation, there would be one AD/DA compensation per unit channel (stereo or mono) but they would each be delay compensated and thereby phase aligned….
    I use an RME MADI FX PCIe card with M-32 AD and DA and ADI-8 QS converters which should be roughly equivalent to the FF UFX + in design and AD/DA round trip latency.
    These tutorials you have created are wonderful and a bit groundbreaking actually. Great job. Thank you. Losing my hardware patchbays is an appealing thought but I’m wondering how much the signal fidelity would be impacted by this many, in serial, non-phase aligned AD/DA conversions.

    • @robertjoyce8527

    Great video. 2 questions please.
    You route you mic to the outputs, and then you see it in your equipment input. So i guess this is because of the routed equipment you connected to the RME.
    How is you equipment is hooked up in practice?

    • @BarryJohns

      Remember, outputs feed inputs. So mic cable is an output, that goes into the input of a mic preamp, mic preamp output goes to the input of the next thing and so on.

    I have 2 RME Fireface AD/DA converters, a Fireface 800 & a Fireface UFX+. I watched the first 2 sessions you presented because I hadn't watched them. You stated many times that to not watch them would potentially be a disservice to myself so I did. I really wanted a concise explanation of how to route signal through Totalmix(es) to a UA 1176 - 2 utilizing both RME converters. By the time I got to this lesson, I decided to call RME support rather than attempt to sit still while you bounce around like spit on a hot griddle explaining hardware connections for the most subtle of recording tasks, applying limiting & compression. I don't like to criticize because I can tell you are trying to earnestly communicate your experiences working with Totalmix. I think editing your videos to reduce redundancies would be by best advice to you. Thanks, though

      @@BarryJohns I called RME support. They have always provided excellent insights and guidance. I built snapshots where no signal flow is occurring whatsoever and all channels are mono. I then viewed the Matrix to observe how it appeared. I found doing so to be beneficial because the Matrix was completely empty. I plan to move forward slowly because I am utilizing a "wall of mics" similar to Phil Spector's wall of sound. I was trying to gain a deeper understanding of how to route signal to a compressor. Starting with no signal flow and building the Totalmix from scratch will allow me to understand then extrapolate.

    I’m curious as to what type of latency there is the further down the signal chain you route audio from external device to external device since you were only monitoring one channel at a time in Studio One. Just as a note to Studio One users, I was able to overcome a latency issue I was having when I changed my workflow from sending my source signal from channel to channel to capture external device signals to instead stay in one channel and using Pipeline XT for my initial hardware insert and then using the Splitter tool on that inserts to then daisy chain subsequent instances of Pipeline XT to as many hardware devices as I wished to build a signal chain to my liking with no perceivable latency that I could detect. Then I could just turn that signal chain on and off within Studio One just as I would using a plugin. Very convenient. I’m going to do a side by side comparison myself to see which workflow I prefer. Who knows, maybe I’ll find a way to utilize both workflows together. Hopefully 😊

      @@BarryJohns unfortunately not. I measured 34 samples with a single pass at 48khz. while that is incredibly low, it will add up once chaining multiple passes. total mix is very very powerful, yet chaining fx will still require a mix of software plus analog patchbays to keep it phase coherent.

    Forgive me if this has been asked already, watching this In the car. So does routing through totalmix eliminate the need to use pipeline to route hardware into studio one? Is is pipeline used for something different or when I don't want to monitor through totalmix.

    • @BarryJohns
      @BarryJohns  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If sendinding out of Studio One to hardware as an insert, then you need to use pipeline for that. If routing into various pieces of hardware before it hits your RME Interface, you'd do that with TotalMix. Have you watched all 4 videos?

    Hey there.
    Great stuff !
    I do have a question, maybe this has been dealt with later:
    When you are sending several mixes to several outputs, who do you listen to those various outputs via the headphones?
    Another to phrase this, probably still in a wrong way, is it possible to insert the headphones at the various outputs? It's probably a session on the "assign" that I need :)
    One obvious reason why we would one to do that is to know what we are sending. It's probably very simple but I have to say it's not second nature to me at the moment.

      No not at all. I have two patchbays. When I track I don’t route through totalmix, it’s when I use hardware inserts at times. But can you eliminate patch ays, yes if you have enough I/O. Remember every time you’re routing through total mix, you’re dealing with conversion happening both ways. You don’t have that when you use a patch bay.

      Are you sure you use Totalmix? The reason I’m asking is because if you did you would know that Barry is showing how flexible the routing is and how you can do some complex routing systems. In terms of straight forward routing, Totalmix is extremely easy as well( go to the output channel your speakers are on , raise the volume that your hardware channel is plugged into and boom you are done.) plus, it can be controlled through iPad, iPhone, another laptop or desktop as well. Flock audio does have advantages but you didn’t state any of them,

I was connecting the tegler cream rc and it seems like what was happening was using the pipeline plug-in, was interfering with the Tegler plug-in and causing too much latency or something. it was also trying to blend the dry and wet signals, which I didn’t want, but I got it routed properly. I bypassed the pipeline XT and went straight into the main for the master bus compressor and plug-in. I’ll have to bounce to new track and not render but it’s working fine, took a while, but I got it going thanks!….and I saved the snapshots and mixer layout to easily recall or input the tegeler when I start mixing.
