Since your DAW will receive every sound coming out of SonicCell with
the following setup, be sure to mute all of SonicCell’s synth sounds
while recording live audio so you don’t record them on the live audio’s
DAW track along with your audio. You can do this by muting the
synth sounds’ MIDI tracks in your DAW, or by muting their parts in the
SonicCell Editor on your computer.
Here’s how to record with SonicCell’s reverb, chorus, or mastering effect:
