Control Room (Cubase only)
• In the Inspector, a Studio Sends tab can be found. This
will display all Studio Sends for the selected track.
Please note that not all Inspector sections are available by default. To
show/hide a section, right-click on an Inspector section and activate/
deactivate the desired option on the context menu.
The Studio Sends tab in the Inspector
Each Studio can have a unique name in order to help
identify what it is being used for. For example, the four
Studios could be named:
• Vocalist Mix
•Guitarist Mix
•Bassist Mix
• Drummer’s Mix
The name of each Studio is displayed in the Control Room
Mixer. To hear the Studio Sends mix in the Studio output,
the input selector for each Studio must be set to “Aux”.

Setting up a Studio cue mix
The Studio Sends are very flexible. There are several ways
to create a cue mix for each Studio in a very fast and effi-
cient manner. Simple “more me” mixes and more complex
discrete mixes are easily accommodated by the Studio
Sends.
Using fader and pan settings from the Project Mixer
You can create a cue mix from the fader and pan levels al-
ready used in the Project Mixer and then alter them to
meet the needs of an individual performer. You can do this
with any single channel or group of channels at any time.
To copy fader and pan information from the main mix, pro-
ceed as follows:
1. In the Project Mixer, select all the channels that you
wish to copy settings from.
The following operations affect only selected channels.
