I Guess Lemury would be the one the person to answer this..ok for the most part I am using the Default KX setup except for a few additions....what I am wondering...I have read quite a few time that the mixer page is not needed..so then I can Lose the X-routing module correct?..ok then if that correct then how do I configure the DSP using SRC's to still have my 5.1...
do I need to set each one for a stereo pair and then patch them to the surrounder+...
I am currently on a DSP page learning mission..taking your advice!
I just need a few pointers..
OK..to clarify..I just want the simpliest DSP setup to get 5.1 using PROFX..than I can save that as my base...an add from there..is this possible?...I have been trying but I get mixed results.. Thanks for your time

[color=yellow]Yes. that's correct.[/color]
[color=yellow]X-routing is nothing more then any other DSP mixer[/color]
[color=yellow](except for the fact that it's controled by kX Mixer. ..Kinda mixer in a mixer in a mixer etc...) which ties the whole default bunch together.[/color]
[color=yellow]It's the first one should toss.[/color]

[color=yellow]Yep, also correct. Simple isn't it?[/color]
[color=yellow]However, if you connect the SRCs straight to the surrounder,[/color]
[color=yellow]you loose seperate 5.1's channels level controls of course.[/color]
[color=yellow]If you need that (i don't), put one of the many level/gains plugs in between.[/color]

ok thats what I am a little fuzzy on..how many SRC do I need for input to surrounder..then I guess I can use the Klt for the outs right?.....no your right I don't need all that leveling as long as it's not clipping I am happy....can you rough it out for me..I understand kinda how it would be done..earlier I set a SRC to 0/1 then patched that toL/R on the Surrounder...but is that correct?......Your plugs are the least resource intensive so I would like to use them as me base Patch..thanks for your help BTW

[color=yellow]Nah,..I know you're smart enough to figure this one out yourself.[/color]
[color=yellow](Besided, I'm not a 'surrounder' addept)[/color]
[color=yellow][/color]
[color=yellow]Just take the Wavegenerator and Peak, and 'beep through' the Xrouting plug[/color]
[color=yellow]to find it's mapping/signal routing.[/color]
[color=yellow]How hard can that be? [/color]
[color=yellow](is a good exercise on signal routing btw)[/color]

yah..lol I guess that goes with the theme for today..learn the DSP..I don't know why I was looking for you to map it for me....If I run into trouble I can't correct..i'll let ya know.....THX..I didn't notice I was getting lazy in todays lesson

The light went on when I figured out that the labels on the surrounder were like compass points. in_nw was north west, lol. Looking at the router helps too. I use five src's in all. FX bus 0/1 and AC97 line-in go into stereo mix with gain and that's my main left/right source. Surrounder top two.

Then my AC-3 signal is handled by the other three src's FX bus 4/5,(nw ne), 6/7, (sw se), and 8/9, (n and lfe.) The remaining surrounder inputs are for side and rear center speakers I think. Top is hilarious, maybe a ceiling speaker who knows. I left those empty.

I put gains and eq's in between surrounder outputs and K1lt. Works like a charm.
I tested with an AC-3 file and all is where it should be.

I use SB Live 5.1 with Soundworks speakers and sub, sounds great with the new drivers.
