Does anyone have any recommended setups for using a MOTU 828 mk3 with cubase 6?
At the moment if i want 2 separate mixes (Control Room mix plus a performance headphone mix) i am creating a different group channel for each and assigning them to the corresponding output pairs on the MOTU.
This way i can send from one pair to the other - which i found you can’t do if they are standard output busses in cubase.
Is there a better way? Any tips at all using the MOTU and multiple outs in cubase would be really helpful!
Nothing to do with the 828 Mk3 (I’m using one)
I think you should have a look at Control Room Studio busses.
You could create one, assign the phone outs to that, and comfortably set a performing mix from the mixer…
Thanks for the prompt replies… I have looked briefly at the CR feature but it seems to exclude whatever pairs i assign in there from the main outputs section. Which must have put me off using it.
I would also like to have the audition tool map to my main mix. (which can’t be uncommon).
I will take a closer look at the CR feature again tonight and report back. Thanks again
by the way, could you elaborat eon “comfortably set a performing mix from the mixer” how in practice is that done? Using sends on each track i want the performer to hear? will the phones bus i create in the CR be listed in the sends options?
You really could start with reading the manual on studio sends.
Anyway, once you create a studio buss in VST connections, it’s sends become available in the mixer (extended view or in Channel Settings window)
