Mixer Routing and Busing

After you have a mic or an instrument plugged in to your mixer, you want to be able to send the signal somewhere. This is where the signal Routing/Busing comes into the picture. The place where the signal ends up is referred to as the Bus. You will utilize busing when you want to: a) Mix an entire song down to a stereo mix via the Master Bus, b) mix several tracks together before sending them on to the Master Bus, c) use the Control Room Bus to listen to your tracks through the monitors, and d) adding effects to your tracks via the Auxiliary Bus.
