Re: overdub problems

Your mixer may not have FX SEND, but many mixers do. It's normal purpose is to allow you to send sound to an effects machine such as an echo or reverb generator. But it also makes a dandy isolated mixer for special purpose jobs like this. Your mixer may have an AUX SND. Consult your instructions. Koz

Re: Create/record a sound that sounds like my own eating
