When "Stop" is displayed, the input signal is rendered, "Play" renders the track
contents, "Record" renders the input signal. If the option is deactivated, the
user has to choose whether the input signal is shown or not. Use the "Force
monitoring" button (small loudspeaker symbol beside/above the peak meter in
the VIP/mixer).
Monitoring > Peak meter monitoring
This corresponds with the normal characteristics of the VIP, i.e. the track's
peak meter displays the sound card input level.
Monitoring > Software monitoring / Software FX monitoring
Software monitoring for cards with ASIO drivers is also possible if the card
does not support hardware monitoring (ASIO direct monitoring).
Software FX monitoring also calculates the track effects into the monitoring
signal with the exception of all high latency-affected FX inserts (e.g. FFT filters,
dehisser, or vocoder). The amp simulator, however, is applicable. Samplitude
11.5 Producer can therefore also be used as an effects device to play live
directly.
If you need all of the mixer effects, then use the conventional live input mode
(functions without ASIO, but is afflicted with higher latencies).
Furthermore, software or software FX monitoring must be active to be able to
play VST instruments live using the "MIDI in" port.
