Topic: Recording dry, but monitor with reverb |

I know this is easy to do now a days. I'm running direct into Protools 10.
I want the track to be dry, but while I'm recording, I'd like to hear a bit of reverb in the headphones without latency. Do I split the signal into a second bus?

Not necessary. Use your effects and just bring the return to a separate folder. That way you can add the amount of reverb you want without recording it. If you bus the reverb then you only need to use the plugin one time.

My Roland Octa-Capture has the built in ability to add reverb to the local (headset) monitor only.

How are you setting up your template ? I run every track with PT8 with effects while recording, they are in the BIN and POST the raw track. They can be turned on, off or adjusted while recording but they are not part of the raw track. That's the whole point of effects with DAW's...
If you have a latency issue I would resolve that first, you should have zero or negligible latency if you are set up properly.
Search google for PT's setup for latency, there are many excellent guides.

Thanks Tony, I 'll give it a shot. I'm over complicating it in my head. My experience in trying this before was with old mac DAW software called Deck where it was difficult abd had latency issues.

This was an extremely basic question. There is loads of information on the internet on how to do this. Sorry I was so lazy in posted this question here. There are several ways to do this, of course. The common way appears to be to create a new track that is an AUX track and put the reverb effect there. If you are tracking steel, simply send to the AUX track as well and put the reverb plug-in on the AUX track. So even if there is any latency, it will be on the Aux track and only hit the reverb. You control the wetness of the reverb coming to your headphones with the AUX track fader and most of the time, you probably won’t hear any of that latency at all. Thanks to all for your help on this.
