Hi all. Just got my GAP Pre 73 yesterday. Ran it thru some basics to make sure each section/buttons worked etc. Now pls be gentle with me. I have some finished mixes (that were recorded in Sonar and mixed/psuedo mastered ITB) and have them exported as RIFF .wav files. I also use an Aardvark Q10 as my audio interface. My Q: Can I route the finished .wav file to come out of one of my Q-10's outputs in back, go into the GAP Pre 73 and then out of the GAP Pre 73 and into one of the front inputs of the Q10?? I would then open a new project in Sonar, and record that track "as is" with just the coloring of the GAP to warm it up. Can I do this with just the one unit?? Or would I have to get a "y" cable and take two outputs from the Q10 (eg: L,R mix with Out 1= Left, Out 2=Right) and then sum them together to go into the GAP Pre 73. I think I can, but wanted opinions first. FYI, I do know that my routing options on the Q10 do not allow a L/R combined to come out of one output, so my main concern is combining that signal to go into 1 GAP Pre 73 to use as a "color"?? Whew....think I said all this right. Your answers are greatly appreciated.
