Plussaa sekä Kalmolle että Antille asian selventämisestä. Kun tuo avainsana (bus) löytyi, niin asia alkoi jo vähän valottua ja muualta löytyi heti lisätietoa aiheesta... ;) Alla pätkä, joka oli omasta mielestäni valaiseva - any comments?
 
"Buses and auxiliary buses are the same thing in Sonar. One can have any number of them. The real difference in them is only in how they are used. Any audio track can go to any bus either directly or via a send. Sends are a way for a track to give its signal to more then one bus. You can have any number of sends on a track.
So how are these things used you may ask. Anyway you want. A bus is named so to convey a sense of what it does. It receives a signal from either a track/s or from another bus or buses. An auxiliary bus (from now on known as an aux) receives input from sends. They can come from a bus or a track.
Auxs are use normally for effects that have impact on sound imaging. Such as reverb or chorus. Often an aux is use because one has a number of tracks that need the effect but one dose not want to insert the effect in all of the tracks. Itâ€s a way to keep the number of effects to a minimum. Other effects should not be use this way. These are composed of effects that impact sonic amplitude such as compressors and limiters. They need to be in a bus or in the effect bin of track. It is important to know that there are no rules here. All that was just said can be changed if one has a reason for doing so.
Buses are also used as sub buses. That is tracks can be grouped to one bus to make it easier to control them. Or to place a single effect or effects on a group of tracks via a single bus.
So what dose all this mean? It means that you have at your disposal a great deal of power and versatility with the way you can use you buses and aux.
One more thing that is intrinsic to an aux is that is it may receive only a partial signal from a track. This is controlled from the track in question. Further the aux can be reduced in volume as it outputs to another bus. This gives a lot of control over the effect in that aux ."
