Asio Direct Monitor Send/Return - E-Mu 1212M Owner's Manual

ASIO Direct Monitor Send/Return

This type of insert send breaks the signal at the insert point and sends it out to the
selected ASIO Host Input destination (such as Cubase or Sonar). A return source signal
is also selected which returns the signal to the channel strip from an ASIO Host Output.
The ASIO Direct Monitor Send/Return is unique in that it utilizes ASIO 2.0 zero-latency
monitoring. In order to utilize this feature, Direct Monitoring must be enabled in the
audio recording application.
While recording, the Direct Monitor Send/Return routes the signal to the recording
application, but monitors directly from the input to eliminate latency. During playback,
the recording application automatically switches the Direct Monitor Send/Return to
monitor the recorded track.
The Direct Monitor Send/Return also allows the recording application to control
volume and pan. Normally when using direct monitor recording you'll want to control
the volume and pan from the recording application. In this case, set the PatchMix DSP
stereo pan controls hard left and right, mono pan controls to center, and the fader to
0dB.
