Apogee FX Rack Workflow
Follow Your Own Path
With Apogee FX Rack you decide how you want to work
Native
Native mode lets you use Apogee FX Rack plugins in any DAW on your Mac without Apogee hardware connected just like any other plugin.
Print
The hardware DSP in your Apogee Element Series and Ensemble Thunderbolt interfaces, now activated by the Apogee FX Rack system, offer two additional workflow options when recording.
Apply Apogee FX directly to the Apogee hardware input - open the FX Rack in Apogee Control, apply your desired processing and record - FX processing is printed to your DAW track.
DualPath Monitor
DualPath Monitor - to preserve the flexibility to tweak your processing as you record and build your mix, DualPath Monitor offers a simple solution. When you open a native ApogeeFX Rack in your DAW, then link it to an Apogee hardware input, a parallel FX Rack is automatically opened in the low latency monitoring path. Changes made in either plugin are instantly mirrored, to maintain a consistent sound. Since most hardware controls, including mic pre gain, are accessible from your DAW, there's no need to switch between windows.
