Use Cases

Because of its versatile array of inputs and outputs, there are many ways to use the Colour Duo. This section

illustrates three of them.

Two-Channel Mic Preamp

Besides being a Colour processor, the Duo is also a pair of no-compromise microphone preamps. With the

Colour section bypassed, you can use them as a pair of transparent, low-noise preamps. Or engage Colours for

processing on the way in.

different sources.

• Create two tracks in your DAW and set their sources to the two line inputs you connected to in the previous

step.

• Start recording.

Stereo Bus Processor

Because of its stepped controls, the Duo makes an excellent stereo bus processor. In this example we will put the

Duo across the mix bus for some subtle finishing.

• Connect two outputs from your audio interface to the

• Connect the

chose in the previous step. That is, if you used outputs 3/4 you should also connect the Duo to inputs 3/4.

• Create a hardware insert and set the inputs and outputs to the channels you chose in the previous steps.

Check the documentation for your DAW if in doubt about how to create hardware inserts.

Hardware Insert for Mixing

You can also use the Duo as two independent Colour processors. In this example, we'll set up the Duo as a

hardware insert on two separate tracks.

• As in the previous case, connect the Duo's

interface. For this example we'll use channels 3 and 4.

• Choose the two tracks in your DAW you want to affect with the Duo. Let's use Bass and Kick for this example.

• Create a hardware insert on the Bass track using input/output 3, and on the Kick track using input/output 4.

• You can now use the two channels of the Duo as if they were plugins on the Bass and Kick tracks. When

you are ready to capture your processing, you can live render the individual tracks or live bounce the entire

session (consult your DAW's manual for how to do these).
