Reverb question

[Anorton]

I've been using JamUp Pro on my iPad 2 as my guitar processor plugged into the Blue Mikey 2's line in on my iPod touch 3 to use MultiTrack's punch in feature for a guitar track.

I record my guitar track in MultiTrack (on the iPod touch), paste it into Hokusai, send to DropBox, open in Hokusai on iPad, then paste into MultiTrack on iPad. I am unable to add MultiTrack's reverb or delay to tracks done this way. I've used a similar process with AmpliTube's guitar app and two devices, but without Hokusai and DropBox, and it worked. This is not my normal workflow, but I really like a particular guitar set up in JamUp and don't see another way to do it.

Any ideas as to why the reverb/delay doesn't work? Compression and EQ do work.

The reverb and delay are "send" effects added after the track channels send signal to them. They get mixed in at the master channel stage. If you want your guitar tracks to have multitrack's reverb and delay included with them you would have to "mixdown" with the effects set as desired.

There may be another way, but the above will work.

Why wouldn't my guitar tracks work like any other pasted file (drums, bass, keyboards)? Sorry. I don't understand what makes my guitar tracks respond differently.

Hmm, it shouldn't really matter how you get the tracks into the iPad, are you saying you can't add reverb/delay on a track on the iPad?

It's weird. Yes, no reverb/delay on iPad. I'm using the JamUp app on the iPad connected to an iPod touch via line in on Blue Mikey 2 to record the guitar in MultiTrack on the iPod touch. Interestingly, I can't add reverb or delay to the track on the iPod touch either. Seems like something with the audio produced in JamUp. Not a big deal, just curious about it.
