Serato post fader effects method

    The fact that only prefader effects were available (or so I had thought) was bothering me, and since my Ecler HAK 360 does not have any effects, I thought of this routing method to deliver postfader effects efficiently and easily.

    The things you will need to achieve this are:
    A Rane SL-3 Or SL-4 Box. An SL-2 Will not work, nor will an SL-1.

    A mixer with an effects routing option.

    This is not a perfect method at all, and unfortunately the latency within this loop causes a constant repeater effect to be heard, if this is not used sparingly.

    The method:
    Assuming you have a simple two turntable setup. Plug the effects routing OUTPUT (EEF in my case) to the auxiliary INPUT on the SL-3. Plug the auxiliary OUTPUT on the SL-3 into the MIX input on the mixer (Effects return).

    In serato, enable auxiliary deck. Enable internal playing, start playback, load LiveFeed to this aux track.

    Configure your effects to run on this deck only, leave your effects toggled on constantly.

    Now when you toggle your external effects routing on your mixer, the signal will be sent into serato, manipulated on the AUX channel, and then sent out back into the mix POSTFADER.

    Only used it for echo-outs so far. Works a treat for that though.

    Set this up and it works. I was looking for a similar setup on the serato forums but couldn't find anyone doing this, so maybe a few people around here would also like to know this.
