Maybe by routing the signal to an audio bus?

I am not sure if I understood correctly, but would adding insert enable you to do such routing you want?

hello thank s for reply,

as i understand , inserts are mainly design for getting external sound in Ardour. what i want to achieve is

instrument mixer with piano plugin
instrument mixer with kick plugin
instrument mixer with vocal sample > audio bus [mix plugin bus] : Audio bus have reverb,ping pong delay, mapitchshift :


arrangement as above (if you need any further explanation on it ,please ask).if i route all three tracks to audio bus, is there any possibility that i can send every instrument to a different effect plugin in that bus.i guess pin connection can help me in this.

just trying to find out a way to achieve this with your help.

What you want is an auxiliary send. Look it up in the Ardour manual and read that whole chapter. For some reason my device isn't letting me copy/paste the url. (Sorry)

If you want to have different effects for each track, why don't you add those effects to that particular track? Or not having more than one bus for effects is also option.

yes i do agree on what you are saying , i do know that, it is possible. but i was just wondering , if there is chance that with ardour can we completely change the sound , just using the pin connection , as i tried it is not possible in extent that i am thinking.it just work with two plugins when you add third plugin the routing of audio output get messed up.

i will explain what i was imaging, as i read through manual of ardour i was fascinated by pin connection , cause it can let you send any signal to anywhere in a signal chain , i thought that might also work in different manner , like if i decided that 3 plugins of a bus can receive different plugin inputs and i can merge that output in last plugin of bus , which can make different sound textures and profiles , that could generate all together something new.
if anyone can come around on how to achive this or want to understand the concept , please ask , we might discover something.
