Hello all,
I am the recipient of a freebie subwoofer within the past few days and am doing a little pondering as to which way I would connect it to my set-up. Briefly, I am using an M Audio 1010LT going to separate home receivers for my multi-channel routing. I have the ability to create another separate channel on the soundcard to route to the sub. However, I am using 5/6 as a mixdown channel in my arrangement to one receiver, and I'm thinking instead of using up 7/8 for the sub, I would instead save it for future expansion.
What I'm instead thinking is just pull a L / R line from the "record out" off the back of the receiver that is on the soundcards mixdown line to feed the sub.
The sub has an adjustable cross-over, so I'm thinking it probably isn't going to make too big of a difference in sound by creating a separate line from the soundcard and routing pedal ranks to it vs. just taking a line off the back of the receiver to go to the sub.
Thoughts on this?
Thanks in advance,
Marc
