HI I'll try and answer this. Your piping the master out of the source track complete with all effects to Jamin (try hearing just the master outs, are the effects on there yes/no?) You need to be sure what your monitoring, ie: are you hearing the right outputs? I normaly run jamin outputs to 2 extra inputs on my mixer to be sure that what I hear is what is going to disk. Jamin will allow you to output to multiple outputs, you must hear what the new tracks are 'hearing' Ok so you have: Ardour: tk 1 source music Left tk 2 " " Right These two tracks have effects on them going to master out (on the master outs) Are you running these two tracks into jamin and bypassing the master? Make sure your hearing the final mix and not just the source through Jamin. Hope this helps.
