Excellent answers as usual from Eric but I would like to clarify a bit further.
When you select a send on a given track in logic, the "return" channel for that is automatically created.
When you use a bus, you can't dictate the amount of that channel you want to "send" to that bus (without pulling down that tracks channel fader). In this respect the bus is absolute, in terms you route all or nothing where as with a send you can send any amount form 0 to 100 % of that track to another destination.
AFAIR (not in front of the computer now), Busses in logic are also absolute in that they re-route the output of that channel to a bus channel, where as a send splits off a copy of the signal leaving the actual output untouched.
Busses themselves cannot be automated as well - you would have to create an aux track and send to that if you wanted it to have automation.
So basically, for applications where you need to have a wet/dry balance, then use a send.
If you want to send one or more tracks to another track then use a bus.
If you want to control the same perameters on several tracks at once, create a group, then select what perameters are to be joined (bear in mind it is relative control so if you have one at 100% volume and the second track at 50%, when you pull down the 100% to the 50% mark the other will now be at 25%).
Hope you get what what I mean. |
Its funny cos I was only this weekend gone looking into the difference in AUX and buss's. I had an idea but wasnt 100%. Thanks for the clarification guys.
