MOTU AUDIO CONSOLE

Return Assign
The Return Assign menu lets you choose any pair of
Track16 audio outputs. The audio signal from this
output pair is then sent back to the computer via
the Stereo Return 1-2 bus. This stereo return bus
from the Track16 appears in your host software
alongside all other Track16 inputs, wherever your
host software lists them.
The Track16 stereo return bus can be used for a
variety of purposes. For example, you could use it
to send a final mix being played through the
Track16 back to the computer, where you could
record it for mastering or archiving purposes.
As another example, you could use the stereo
return bus to capture tracks played from your host
software, along with live inputs being routed
directly through the Track16 hardware via CueMix
FX (with or without CueMix effects processing on
the live inputs).
