11 CueMix Console
OVERVIEW
CueMix Console provides access to the flexible
on-board mixing features of the PCI-424 system.
CueMix lets you route any combination of inputs to
any stereo output pair. These mixes can be set up
entirely independently of your host audio software.
CueMix allows you to set up as many separate
mixes as there are stereo outputs in your system.
You can also save and load mix configurations.
CueMix Console can be used independently of
host audio software, or together with it. CueMix
mixing dovetails with the direct monitoring
(hardware patch thru) features of your host audio
software, allowing you to seemlessly mix in both
environments.
