203 Mixing

1. The Master Out chooser selects the output on your interface to be used as the main output.

2. The Cue Out chooser selects the output on your hardware interface to be used for cueing.

This has to be set to an output other than that selected for the Master. If the desired outputs

don’t show up in these choosers, please check the Audio Preferences.

3. Activate cueing by setting the Solo/Cue Mode switch to “Cue.“

4. The tracks’ Solo switches are now replaced by Cue switches with headphone icons. When

a track’s Cue switch is pressed, that track’s output signal will be heard through the output

selected in the Cue Out chooser. Note that the Track Activator switch on the same track still

controls whether or not the track is heard at the Master output.

5. The Cue Volume control adjusts the volume of the cueing output.

Note that when cueing is set up and activated, the output of audio ﬁles that you are previewing

in the browser is also heard through the Cue Out.

15.7 Track Delays

A Track Delay control is available for every track in Live. The control allows delaying or pre-de-

laying the output of tracks in milliseconds in order to compensate for human, acoustic, hardware

and other real-world delays.

This section of the interface can be shown or hidden using its respective Mixer Section selector.

The Track Delay Control and Selector.

We do not recommend changing track delays on stage, as it could result in undesirable clicks or

pops in the audio signal. Micro-offsets in Session View clips can be achieved using the nudge

buttons in the Clip View (page 102), however track delays can be used in the Arrangement

View for such offsets.
