Sending reverb output to audio interface outputs

Is there a simple way to output the Chromaverb plugin by itself -- just the reverb part without any recorded audio -- from an aux channel to an analog mixer? I'm hoping to use mixer faders to adjust reverb, without having to do this in Logic. Any ideas or suggestions would be much appreciated!

Honestly , I don't understand what you are trying to do. What do you mean with "output just the reverb part without any recorded audio"?

If you say you want to "use mixer faders to adjust reverb" do you mean the signal to the reverb or the output of the reverb?

Even if you send the reverb output to the mixer via your audio interface, you have to bring the output of the reverb back into Logic if you want to bounce your mix (unless this is for a live setup.

Another part of clarification: You cannot route an Aux Send directly to an Output Channel of you audio interface, only to Internal Busses in Logic. So there is no point to adjust the signal going into the Chroma Verb on an external mixer.

Here is a possible routing configuration:

• • Use a specific Aux Bus ("to Reverb") via the Aux Sends on the individual Audio Track to send portion of their signal to that Aux Bus ("to Reverb").
  • Create an Aux Channel Strip ("Reverb Return") with that Aux Bus ("to Reverb") as its input
  • Add the Chroma Verb to its Audio FX Insert.
  • Leave the Volume Fader of the Reverb Return Channel Strip at 0dB or any other fixed level.
  • Route the output of that "Reverb Return" to a its own Output Channel (i.e. output channel 3/4) on your Audio Interface
  • Connect output channel 3/4 of you Audio Interface to your Mixer Input
  • What you do next with reverb signal on the mixer depends on the purpose of your configuration
  • One thing to make sure is to the output of the Chroma Verb to 100% Wet and 0%Dry so you ge only the "reverb'ed" signal.

Hope that helps,

It all depends on the Audio Interface used. The signal path may look like that: Aux with Chromaverb Output > Audio interface Input > Audio Interface Output > Mixer Input. You need the proper number of Inputs/Outputs on the Interface.

Hope that helps,

Thanks Edgar,

Me too I'm not sure I understand what the OP want to achieve. My first impression was the OP wanted to send a pure wet signal to an external mixer for further processing.

Maybe I missed the point...
