Logic as an fx unit.

Guys,

I recently acquired an 8 mono 2 stereo channel analog mixer for my 2kxl, with 2 aux sends.

I'm thinking about sending the aux to logic to access some reverb and delay. What is the best way to route all this? Is it possible to use logic as an fx and still use it to record the mix?

yes this is possible. you just need an interface that takes input. you can use the fx send on the mixer, the main outs, or the channel insert/direct outs. sometimes these are activated by inserting a 1/4" plug only halfway in.
keep in mind, you are going to get some latency, depending on the type of effect, speed of computer, etc etc. so if you want to monitor the fx in realtime, you'll have a tiny delay.

I tried it last night. Mad interference coming from the 2nd set of outs on my interface. Gonna try some better cables.
