How do I hear the output of my DAW on more than one bus in CueMix?

Each CueMix bus is a mix of:

  1. The input sources that you are monitoring in the CueMix Console
  2. Any audio playing back from your computer that is assigned to the same outputs that your CueMix busses are assigned to

So to hear the output of your DAW on more than one bus in CueMix, in your DAW you will need to route the audio playing back to the same outputs that your CueMix busses use.

For example, let's say you're using an 828mkII and you'd like to create two monitor mixes, and the output of your DAW needs to be heard in each mix. We'll say the first CueMix bus is assigned to Main Out 1-2, and the second CueMix bus is assigned to Analog 7-8.

In Digital Performer, you would follow these steps:

  • Assign all of your tracks' outputs to bus 1-2
  • Create two aux tracks, both with bus 1-2 as their input
  • Set the output of the first aux track to Main Out 1-2, and the output of the second to Analog 7-8
  • Now all audio is being routed to bus 1-2, and is in turn routed to both Main Out 1-2 and 7-8

You can do the same thing in other DAWs by following similar steps to route your audio through a bus to multiple outputs; check your DAW's documentation for specific details.
