Mix1 Return Includes Computer; Show Meter In Dock Icon; Phones Menu - MOTU Traveler User Manual

Engaging/disengaging Talkback and
Listenback
To engage Talk back or Listenback, press on the
Talk or Listen buttons and then release to
disengage. Talkback and/or Listenback is engaged
for as long as you hold down the mouse button.
Option-click to make the buttons "sticky" (stay
engaged until you click them again — so you don't
have to hold down the mouse). If you would like to
engage both Talkback and Listenback at the same
time, enable the Link button.
Figure 11-5: The Talkback and Listenback buttons.
Controlling Talkback and Listenback volume
To control the volume of the Talkback and/or
Listenback mics, adjust their input fader in CueMix
Console. This fader controls the volume of the
input, regardless of which bus mix is being
displayed in the CueMix Console window. In other
words, once an input has been designated as a
Talkback or Listenback input, its fader becomes
global for all CueMix buses.

MIX1 RETURN INCLUDES COMPUTER

The Mix1 return includes computer item in the
CueMix Console File menu refers to the Mix1 bus
that the Traveler driver provides as an input to host
audio software. This input source delivers the
output of CueMix DSP "MIX1" (the first mix bus of
the four on-board no-latency monitor mixes in the
84
Traveler) back to your computer. This input serves,
for example, as a convenient way for you to record
the Traveler's MIX1 monitor mix back into your
host audio software (for reference and archiving
purposes).
When the Mix1 return includes computer menu
item is checked, any audio being sent from your
audio software on the computer to the same output
as Mix1 will be included in the Mix1 return bus.
When it is uchecked, computer output is excluded.
This menu item is essentially a pre/post switch for
the computer audio insert to the stream of audio
going to Mix1's Traveler output pair (and also back
to the computer).

SHOW METER IN DOCK ICON

This CueMix Console File menu item, when
checked, causes the CueMix Console dock icon to
display a small level meter that mirrors the main
output meter for the current mix being displayed in
CueMix Console.

PHONES MENU

The Phones menu allows you to choose what you
will hear on the headphone output, just like the
Phones setting the MOTU FireWire Audio
Console. However, this menu provides one extra
option that is exclusive to CueMix Console: Follow
Active Mix. This menu item, when checked, causes
the headphone output to mirror the output of the
current mix being viewed in CueMix Console. For
example, if you are currently viewing Mix3 (the
Mix3 tab is active), the headphones will mirror the
Mix3 output (whatever it is assigned to).
