E-MU VST E-Wire

In practical use, however, you’ll probably never need to use more than one E-Wire VST on a single track since PowerFX effects can be placed in series. We have included this feature “just in case” you need it.

Here’s one more example of how to use the E-Delay Compensator with different numbers of PowerFX/E-Wire sends on each track. The delay compensation on each track must equal the track with the maximum number of PowerFX/E-Wire sends. See the diagram below.

Cubase VST or Cubasis

Track 1

Insert	Insert
PowerFX	PowerFX
or E-Wire	or E-Wire

Track 2

Insert	Insert
PowerFX	E-Delay
or E-Wire	1

PatchMix

DSP

Since track 1 uses two PowerFX/E-Wire inserts, the delay of all the other tracks must equal two. Track 2 has one PowerFX/E-Wire insert and so adding one unit of E-Delay keeps it time aligned. Track 3 doesn’t use a PowerFX/E-Wire insert and so needs two E-Delay Units to remain in alignment.

Grouping Tracks

When several tracks require E-Delay Compensation, you can send the output of each track to a group or bus and use a single E-Delay Compensator on the output of the group or bus.

•E-MU Digital Audio System and PatchMix DSP must be installed.

•E-Wire is compatible with Cubase SX/SL/LE, Cubase VST, Wavelab, and Cakewalk Sonar (via DirectX-VST adapter) among others.
