onboard talkback microphone to the cue mix outputs.

6.5 Monitor Mixing in Studio One

You can set up monitor mixes with your Quantum interface using Studio

One’s unique Cue Mix feature. This feature takes over the monitor mix control

software for your Quantum-series interface and provides level and pan

control from within Studio One. Simply designate a pair or pairs of outputs as

a cue mix, and you’ll ﬁnd the Cue Mix controls in your Studio One mixer.

You can create a cue mix and send it to any output on your Quantum

(Mains, Headphones, General Purpose, ADAT, or S/PDIF). You simply need to create an

output bus and enable Cue Mix.

Power User Tip: It is possible to designate the main output as a cue mix. This is helpful if

you often record yourself and require quick access to monitoring for live inputs.

When the main output is designated as a Cue Mix, a button will appear on any audio

channel, with an assigned audio input in the Console, below the Mute, Solo, Record, and

Monitor buttons.

6.5.1 Cue Mix Functions

Once you have created a cue mix output, you will notice a special Send object

in the channels of the Console. This Send object is called a Cue Mix object.

In the Small Console view, Cue Mix objects appear in

the far left column of the extended channel.
