Type this address into your web browser to

STAND-ALONE OPERATION
All settings, including mix settings and device
settings, are saved in your MOTU interface's
memory. They remain in effect even when the
interface is not connected to a computer. This
allows you to use your MOTU device as a stand-
alone mixer. You can make adjustments to any
setting at any time from the web app running on a
device that has a network connection to your
MOTU interface, as explained in "Setup for web
app control" on page 40.
