FX容器
Introduction
介绍
This advanced topic is not really suitable for beginners.
这个高级话题并不适合初学者。
REAPER’s FX containers allow you more flexibility and a greater capability in creating and managing FX chains than simply running two or more FX in parallel with each other.
REAPER的FX容器使您在创建和管理FX链方面具有更大的灵活性和能力,而不是简单地并行运行两个或多个FX。
This advanced topic might take a little longer for you to get your head around.
这个高级主题可能需要更长的时间才能让你理清思路。
It’s more appropriate for experienced users than for beginners.
它更适合有经验的用户而不是初学者。
To understand FX containers and how they work, let’s take an example.
为了了解FX容器及其工作方式,让我们举一个例子。
The actual FX used are for illustration only and are not the focus of the exercise.
实际使用的FX仅用于说明,并非练习的重点。
What matters is the technique, which could be applied using other FX.
重要的是这项技术,它可以应用于其他FX。
We will build two parallel FX chains rather than just two parallel FX.
我们将建立两个并行的FX链,而不仅仅是两个并行的FX。
This concept is illustrated by the diagram on the right.
这个概念如右图所示。
To achieve this, REAPER will need to:
为此,REAPER需要:
Pass the audio signal into a container.
将音频信号传递到容器中。
This container will need to consist of enough channels as are needed to allow for (in this case) two parallel chains, i.e. four channels in all, one pair for each chain.
该容器需要由足够的通道组成,以允许(在这种情况下)两条并行链,即总共四条通道,每条链一对。
As the audio stream exits the container, the outputs of the two parallel channels will need to be merged as they are passed on thru channels 1/2 of the FX chain to any subsequent FX (in this example, ReaLimit).
当音频流离开容器时,两个并行通道的输出将需要合并,因为它们通过FX链的1/2通道传递到任何后续FX(在本例中,ReaLimit)。
To recap, channels 1/2 are used by default by the track to send audio output to the master.
概括一下,默认情况下,轨道使用1/2通道向主控发送音频输出。
So, to summarize, a container will need enough inputs and enough channels (in this example, four) to allow the different streams to be processed independently of each other, and enough outputs (again, in this case four) to allow the streams to be merged as they exit the chain.
因此,总的来说,容器将需要足够的输入和足够的通道(在本例中为四个)来允许不同的流彼此独立地处理,以及足够的输出(在本示例中也是四个)以允许流在退出链时合并。
That’s a lot of theory to take in! Let’s see how it’s done in practice.
这有很多理论要借鉴!让我们看看它在实践中是如何做到的。
Example 1
示例1
To set up the FX container described above:
要设置上述FX容器,请执行以下操作:
1. Click on the track’s FX button, then Add, then from the displayed list of FX double-click on Container.
1.单击轨道的FX按钮,然后单击“添加”,然后从显示的FX列表中双击“容器”。
A container is added to the FX chain and its empty window displayed.
将一个容器添加到FX链中,并显示其空窗口。
Immediately after the container, in the far left column, add ReaLimit.
紧接在容器之后的最左列中,添加ReaLimit。
Select the container.
选择容器。
Your FX window should now resemble that shown on the right.
您的FX窗口现在应该类似于右边显示的窗口。
2. Click on the container’s button labeled 2 in+out to open its pin connector window.
2.单击标记为“2 in+out”的容器按钮,打开其针脚连接器窗口。
Here you can define its parameters.
在这里你可以定义它的参数。
We’ll get to the pin connectors shortly.
我们很快就会找到针脚连接器。
First, notice that by default the container inherits the same number of input/output channels as the track - in this case two.
首先,请注意,默认情况下,容器继承的输入/输出通道数量与轨道相同——在本例中为两个。
3. Set the number of container channels, inputs and outputs to (in this example) 4 and complete the pin connector matrix as shown here (right).
3.将容器通道、输入和输出的数量设置为(在本例中)4,并完成此处(右侧)所示的针脚连接器矩阵。
Instead of 2 in+out, the container’s pin connector button will now read 2/4 in+out.
容器的针脚连接器按钮现在将读取2/4 in+out,而不是2 in+out。
4. This directs input from track channel 1 to container inputs 1 and 3, and from track channel 2 to container inputs 2 and 4.
4.这将输入从轨道通道1引导到容器输入1和3以及从轨道通道2引导到容器输入2和4。
Output from container channels 1 and 3 will pass to track channel 1, and output from container channels 2 and 4 will pass to track channel 2.
来自容器通道1和3的输出将传递到轨道通道1,来自容器通道2和4的输出将传递到轨道通道2。
5. Using the Add button in the container window we can now insert the required FX into the container’s FX chain - for this example ReaEQ, ReaDelay, ReaVerbate and a second instance of ReaEQ.
5.使用容器窗口中的“添加”按钮,我们现在可以将所需的FX插入容器的FX链中——例如ReaEQ、ReaDelay、ReaVerbate和第二个ReaEQ实例。
Your FX window should now resemble that shown (above).
您的FX窗口现在应该与上面显示的类似。
6. The pin connectors for the first two container FX will both need to be set to receive input from and send output to container channels 1 and 2 only, as shown here (below left).
6.前两个容器FX的针脚连接器都需要设置为仅从容器通道1和2接收输入和向容器通道2发送输出,如这里所示(左下)。
7. Similarly, the pin connectors for other two FX will both need to be set to receive input from and send output to container channels 3 and 4 only (below right).
7.类似地,其他两个FX的针脚连接器都需要设置为仅从容器通道3和4接收输入并向容器通道4发送输出(右下)。
8. Finally, you can experiment with adjusting the various FX parameters - and save this file as a model that you might find useful for future use.
8.最后,您可以尝试调整各种FX参数,并将此文件保存为一个魔板,以便将来使用。
Note: A new container can be added to an existing FX chain by choosing Add FX container from the FX menu.
注意:通过从FX菜单中选择“添加FX容器”,可以将新容器添加到现有的FX链中。
You can also create a new container from this menu by selecting any FX or selection of FX in the chain and choosing Move to container from the FX menu.
您也可以从该菜单创建一个新容器,方法是选择链中的任何FX或构建FX选择,然后从FX菜单中选择“移动到容器”。
Example 2
示例2
In this example we will split an audio stream into two chains - left and right - and apply separate FX to each stream before returning the signal to the FX chain, one FX to channel 1 (left) only and the other to channel 2 (right) only.
在这个例子中,我们将把一个音频流分成两个链——左和右——并在将信号返回到FX链之前对每个流应用单独的FX,一个FX仅到通道1(左),另一个仅到通道2(右)。
A possible application for this technique could be on a vocal, using one EQ instance to add body, the other to add clarity.
这项技术的一个可能应用可能是在人声上,使用一个EQ实例来增加主体,另一个来增加清晰度。
In this case, the pin connector numbers should be left at its default settings - two container channels, two inputs, two outputs.
在这种情况下,针脚连接器编号应保留在其默认设置中——两个容器通道、两个输入、两个输出。
The pin connector settings for each of the two EQ instances could then not be simpler.
两个EQ实例中每个实例的针脚连接器设置再简单不过了。
The first takes its input from and sends its output to channel 1 only (as shown here).
第一个只从通道1获取输入,并将输出发送到通道1(如图所示)。
The second takes its input from, and sends its output to, channel 2 only.
第二个只从通道2获取输入,并将输出发送到通道2。
More Complex Applications FX containers are handy, but even they do have their limitations!
更复杂的应用程序FX容器很方便,但即使是它们也有其局限性!
More complex models can be created using REAPER’s pin connectors - for example, fine tuning your parallel processing requirements, or directing the output from some FX to a different track.
使用REAPER的针脚连接器可以创建更复杂的模型,例如,微调并行处理要求,或将某些FX的输出引导到不同的轨道。
For these and other related topics refer to to the JS: Channel Mapper-Downmixer in the REAPER User Guide.

Tip 1: FX containers can be even more powerful when combined creatively with other REAPER features.
提示1:FX容器在与其他REAPER功能创造性地结合时可以更加强大。
For example, you can have two or more containers running in parallel with each other!
例如,可以有两个或多个容器并行运行!
Tip 2: You can select any FX or number of FX in a track or item’s FX chain, then choose Move FX to container from their right-click context menu to move those FX into a new container.
提示2:您可以在轨道或对象的FX链中选择任何FX或任何数量的FX,然后从右键单击上下文菜单中选择“移动FX到容器”,将这些FX移动到新容器中。
