Guys, I have a situation that I'm a little unsure how to deal with. I have an Alesis Multi-Mix 4 USB audio interface. This thing's pretty much bare bone as basic as they come. There is absolutely no effects on this thing at all. Absolutely none. They do make a model that has effects onboard, but mine is the step model below that.
So, I have a vocalist who is going to be recording later this week in my studio. They are a very good singer for the most part, but the issue is, they get a little nurvous hearing themselves naturally singing through a microphone. Therefore, it's always been their thing to doctor their voice up by splashing auto-tune all over themselves, which of corse sounds God aweful in the long run. What we would like to do is, though I have direct monitorring on my interface, which yes, I can turn on or off, I don't have a way of sending reverb through the direct monitor output, which I really wouldn't ideally wanna do anyway. I know in ProTools how to instantiate a reverb plugin on one of the inserts. I also know how to route an audio track through a send and then send the signal to an auxiliary track, but the thing is, short of bumping the wet mix of that reverb way up, then just bringing it back down in the long run, is there a way I can somehow have an effect like reverb, or compression, or whatever plug I choose to only go through the monitorring of ProTools? In other words, I want to hit shift R on the track to arm it, but I want seperet settings for what they hear through their headphones than what gets actually recorded into PT. Say I wanted them to hear themselves with lots of wet reverb, but I only wanted the actual recording on the track to have just a real real real slight shimmer of reverb which hardly is even audible. Can I somehow separate what they hear from what goes through the actual DAW itself? I just figure that if I can allow them not only to hear their voice back as they're singing, but if I can give them a little reverb, so they don't sound so dry, it may encourage them to relax a bit.
