MOTU CUEMIX CONSOLE

MIX1 RETURN INCLUDES COMPUTER

The Mix1 return includes computer item in the

CueMix Console File menu refers to the Mix1 bus

that the UltraLite driver provides as an input to

host audio software. This input source delivers the

output of CueMix DSP “MIX1” (the ﬁrst mix bus of

the four on-board no-latency monitor mixes in the

UltraLite) back to your computer. This input

serves, for example, as a convenient way for you to

record the UltraLite’s MIX1 monitor mix back into

your host audio software (for reference and

archiving purposes).

When the Mix1 return includes computer menu

item is checked, any audio being sent from your

audio software on the computer to the same output

as Mix1 will be included in the Mix1 return bus.

When it is uchecked, computer output is excluded.

This menu item is essentially a pre/post switch for

the computer audio insert to the stream of audio

going to Mix1’s UltraLite output pair (and also

back to the computer).

SHOW METER IN DOCK ICON

This CueMix Console File menu item, when

checked, causes the CueMix Console dock icon to

display a small level meter that mirrors the main

output meter for the current mix being displayed in

CueMix Console.

PHONES MENU

The Phones menu allows you to choose what you

will hear on the headphone output, just like the

Phones setting in MOTU Audio Setup. However,

this menu provides one extra option that is

exclusive to CueMix Console: Follow Active Mix.

This menu item, when checked, causes the

headphone output to mirror the output of the

current mix being viewed in CueMix Console. For

example, if you are currently viewing Mix3 (the

Mix3 tab is active), the headphones will mirror the

Mix3 output (whatever it is assigned to).

CONTROL SURFACES MENU

CueMix Console can be controlled from an

automated control surface such as the Mackie

Control™. Use the commands in the Control

Surfaces menu to enable and conﬁgure this feature.

Application follows control surface

When checked, the Application follows control

surface menu command makes the CueMix

Console window scroll to the channel you are

currently adjusting with the control surface, if the

channel is not visible when you begin adjusting it.

The same is true for the bus tabs: if you adjust a

control in a bus that is not currently being

displayed, CueMix Console will jump to the

appropriate tab to display the control you are

adjusting.

Share surfaces with other applications

When the Share surfaces with other applications

menu command is checked, CueMix Console

releases the control surface when you switch to

another application. This allows you to control

your other software with the control surface. Here’s

a simple way to understand this mode: the control

surface will always control the front-most

application. Just bring the desired application to

the front (make it the active application), and your

control surface will control it. When you’d like to

make changes to CueMix Console from the control

surface, just bring CueMix Console to the front

(make it the active application).

When this menu item is unchecked, your control

surface will affect CueMix Console all the time,

even when CueMix Console is not the front-most

application. In addition, you will not be able to

control other host audio software with the control

surface at any time (because CueMix Console

retains control over it at all times). This mode is

useful when you do not need to use the control

surface with any other software.
