Chapter 9: Studio Monitor Express (Windows) 59
The SME O/P Patch tab sets the physical output channels from each of SME’s monitors sections to the audio I/O hardware. Select
the desired outputs from the Hardware O/P drop-down menus.
Application O/P Patch
The Application O/P Patch tab routes the application outputs (such as Nuendo) to the audio I/O hardware outputs and/or SME
Inputs.
The Hardware O/P drop-down allows applications using the SME ASIO driver to route signal directly to the physical outputs (by-
passing SME).
The SME I/P drop-down allows applications using the SME ASIO driver to route signal into SME’s mixer. It is possible to select
both a Hardware output and SME Input simultaneously, creating a mult.
If the main outputs from your DAW application are Hardware O/Ps 1–6, they would typically be sent to SME O/Ps 1–6. However,
it is possible to route the speaker outs to a different order (such as SMPTE surround format) than your monitors. For example, out-
put 3 (which your DAW expects is Right Front but you wish to be Center) can be routed to the actual output you use for Center.
Application O/P Patch tab
Only outputs enabled in the Config tab are available from the Hardware O/P and SME I/P drop-down menus.
