dm 3200
Hey guys I have a very simple setup. I just got my first outboard compressor. I have a dm 3200 running pro tools via the fireware card 32 in/32 out. Using 1/2 as my stereo out. How can I route a track in pro tools out to my compressor? The compressor is connected to the insert input under m/l ch 1. I know i can route it using the send and return inputs but i know there is a way to route it to go through the physical insert and then go back into protools on a new track.
 
Somehow you'll have to route your PT track to a physical output. The ASN send seems a logical choice, though you could use a different output. The channel inserts are internally wired to the M/L inputs. If you wish to connect your compressor to these inserts, use a cable to go from the ASN send to the M/L input. I would prefer using the ASN return. It gives you more flexibility.
