First, let's click the Insert Bus button in the Mixing Console window to create a new bus for our
alternative mix.
5. By default, the bus is named Bus A. Let's double-click the bus label and type "Mark's Headphones" in
the box to give our bus a more descriptive name.
6. Now we need to route our headphone bus to one of our sound card's outputs.
a. In the Mixing Console, click the Output button in the I/O control region on the cue mix bus.
A menu is displayed that lists all of our sound card's outputs.
To show or hide the I/O control region, click the I/O button in the View Controls pane.
b. Choose the output where you want to send the headphone mix.
c. Connect the performer's headphones to the selected output.
7. Now we need to create our headphone mix.
a. If the Sends control region isn't already visible, click the Sends button in the View Controls
pane. Notice that each track now has a send for Mark's Headphones (Bus A).
If you have multiple busses in your project, you can adjust the height of the Sends control
region until all sends are visible, or you can click the Channel Send button for each track
and choose Mark's Headphones (Bus A) from the menu.
