Engaging/disengaging Talkback and 
Listenback
To  e n g a g e  Ta lk back or Listenback, press on the 
Ta l k  or  L is t en  buttons and then release to 
disengage. Talkback and/or Listenback is engaged 
for as long as you hold down the mouse button. 
Option-click to make the buttons “sticky” (stay 
engaged until you click them again — so you don’t 
have to hold down the mouse). If you would like to 
engage both Talkback and Listenback at the same 
time, enable the Link button.
Figure 10-5: The Talkback and Listenback buttons.
Controlling Talkback and Listenback volume
To  c ont r o l  t h e  vo l u m e  of  the Talkback and/or 
Listenback mics, adjust their input fader in CueMix 
Console. This fader controls the volume of the 
input, regardless of which bus mix is being 
displayed in the CueMix Console window. In other 
words, once an input has been designated as a 
Ta l k b ac k  or  L i s tenback input, its fader becomes 
global for all CueMix buses.
MIX1 RETURN INCLUDES COMPUTER
The Mix1 return includes computer item in the 
CueMix Console File menu refers to the Mix1 bus 
that the Traveler driver provides as an input to host 
audio software. This input source delivers the 
output of CueMix DSP “MIX1” (the first mix bus of 
the four on-board no-latency monitor mixes in the 
Tr a v e l e r) back to your computer. This input serves, 
for example, as a convenient way for you to record 
the Traveler’s MIX1 monitor mix back into your 
host audio software (for reference and archiving 
purposes).
When the Mix1 return includes computer menu 
item is checked, any audio being sent from your 
audio software on the computer to the same output 
as Mix1 will be included in the Mix1 return bus. 
When it is uchecked, computer output is excluded. 
This menu item is essentially a pre/post switch for 
the computer audio insert to the stream of audio 
going to Mix1’s Traveler output pair (and also back 
to the computer).
PHONES MENU
The Phones menu allows you to choose what you 
will hear on the headphone output, just like the 
Phones setting the MOTU FireWire Audio 
Console. However, this menu provides one extra 
option that is exclusive to CueMix Console: Follow 
Active Mix. This menu item, when checked, causes 
the headphone output to mirror the output of the 
current mix being viewed in CueMix Console. For 
example, if you are currently viewing Mix3 (the 
Mix3 tab is active), the headphones will mirror the 
Mix3 output (whatever it is assigned to).
CONTROL SURFACES MENU
CueMix Console can be controlled from an 
automated control surface such as the Mackie 
Control™. Use the commands in the Control 
Surfaces menu to enable and configure this feature.
Application follows control surface
When checked, the Application follows control 
surface menu command makes the CueMix 
Console window scroll to the channel you are 
currently adjusting with the control surface, if the 
channel is not visible when you begin adjusting it. 
The same is true for the bus tabs: if you adjust a 
control in a bus that is not currently being
