The example shows how Studio Konnekt 48 and the Integrator plug-in allow integration of external digital effects devices with your DAW.

Connections:

Reverb 4000 is connected via S/PDIF coax 1/2 on Studio Konnekt 48

Studio Konnekt 48 is connected to your computer via FireWire

Objects:

Reverb 4000 is an excellent reverb and we intend to use this as a send effect in our DAW.

Please refer to the reference manual for your DAW for detailed information about setting up send effects. For each external effect, one instance of the Integrator plug-in must be set up. Each of the Integrator instances then represents one external effect.
