You can't. His best option is assigning the output to Bus 1-8, not ideal. I used the d8b live for a lot of years, and It was nice to have a graphic across the stereo buss but I had a rack of 12 dbx 31 band EQ's to do wedges.

If you had the open channels I suppose you could try and do something with channel patching where you take the fx return of the EQ and channel patch it to a channel then turn up the aux there.... It makes my head hurt thinking about it. The possibilities for eletronic feedback loops is great, I would probably abandon this idea upon further thought. Your best bet is external EQ.

Un millón de gracias, Peter.
¡¡ Eres mejor que el 7º de Caballería !!

He comprobado que los EQs funcionan insertados/asignados a canal pero no consigo ecualizar las salidas AUX 1-8.
Estoy seguro que estoy haciendo bien las asignaciones/routings desde/hacia las tarjetas y auxiliares.

¿Sabes si éste plugin tiene esa limitación?Si no recuerdo mal, en su manual no tocan a la asignación en los Auxiliares aunque no podría jurarlo.

Saludos y gracias de nuevo.

Thank you very much for your help, Crash !!

It's a shame what I've read. Cannot believe it yet...
Why this limitation to assign plugins wherever you need them?

:(

Well... If I understand correctly, I can assign any graphic EQs from the virtual rack to whatever 8 busses and they (AcumaLabs EQs) will work using Analog BUSS OUTS 1 to 8 using the D25->XLR snake.

Am I right?

Thank you very much in advance.
Gracias de nuevo a ti también, Peter.

Yes, you understand what I am talking about with the bus outs. Even that is not a very good solution since your monitor mixes will be affected by you house mix fader moves. The d8b is ok in a live setting but it really shines in a studio. Unfortunately, with out having any way to assign any of the F/X card outputs to the auxes, it just makes it near impossible to do monitors without a rack of external EQ. It was just something that I don't think anyone thought to implement unfortunately. I'll keep thinking about it and if a solution hits me I'll post it here. Sorry dude.

Thank You one more time for your help.
I think it's a pity to dismiss that kind of feature onto D8B mixer... (sigh).

Please: Does anyone know if it is due to a software/operating system limitation or is due to hardware design?.

Best regards.

Sorry I didn't have better news for you. No matter, if it is software or hardware, you are still in the same situation. I would imagine it is proabaly a bit of both as to why it was not implemented. If it could have been, I bet it would have been upon further reflection. Having worked with a lot of those guys during my time at Mackie, there were a lot of sharp guys and gals involved with this product.
