CUBASE, NUENDO AND OS 9 ASIO SOFTWARE
78
Driver menu as shown below. Make the other
settings in the dialog as needed for your system and
synchronization scenario.
Figure 10-3: Activating the 896HD FireWire ASIO driver in Nuendo
and Cubase.
THE ASIO CONTROL PANEL BUTTON
The Mac version of Cubase VST does not allow the
MOTU FireWire Audio Console to run at the same
time as Cubase. Therefore, the ASIO Control Panel
button in the System dialog as shown in
Figure 10-3 will not launch the MOTU FireWire
Audio Console. In the meantime, you can access
the MOTU FireWire Audio Console in one of two
ways:
Quit Cubase, and then run the MOTU FireWire
Audio Console from the Finder, OR
Te mp or a r i ly sw i t ch to a different ASIO Device in
the System dialog, and then run the MOTU
FireWire Audio Console from the Finder
In either case, any changes you make to the MOTU
FireWire Audio Console window will be reflected
in Cubase when you reactivate the MOTU FireWire
ASIO driver in Cubase.
NUMBER OF CHANNELS
In Cubase, be sure to choose enough channels in
the System dialog (as shown above in Figure 10-3)
to cover the 18 channels of input and 22 channels of
output provided by your 896HD — although the
number of channels may depend on how your
896HD is configured:
12 channels for analog I/O (including the
headphone out)
2 channels for AES/EBU
Zero or 8 channels for optical, depending on
whether you have optical turned off or set to ADAT
optical
For example, if you are using analog only, the
896HD requires a minimum of 12 channels (for 12
channels of output). If you are using analog and
AES/EBU, you need 14 channels.
As another example, if you are using analog,
AES/EBU and ADAT optical, you need 22 channels
(the maximum number of simultaneous output
channels provided by the 896HD).
In Cubase, set the number of channels in the
System dialog (as shown above in Figure 10-3).
ASIO DIRECT MONITORING
The ASIO Direct Monitoring option (Figure 10-3)
allows you to monitor inputs directly in the 896HD
hardware with no drain on your computer and
near zero latency. When you enable this option,
Cubase uses the 896HD’s CueMix DSP monitoring
features whenever you use Cubases monitoring
