: R3 v5 @/ a" Q; R+ j4 @9 X3 E* o/ }2 ], I& s; f% T
DirectMonitoring for Mia is a little tricky. Cubase (or any other ASIO program) doesn’t know
' S5 Q$ ]' j/ W. \about Mia’s virtual outputs; it just sees Mia as four inputs and eight outputs. Unfortunately, Mia’s
( k6 B5 G* N5 {" Pmonitor mixer can only route real inputs to real outputs, and there is no obvious way to convert 8 W& ?& _! h, R, T
from the virtual outputs to the real outputs. * m5 t! v1 G% h6 K$ l5 P& W

Therefore, if you are doing DirectMonitoring with Mia, the input will be simultaneously sent out

that another program is using them. The most likely culprit is the Microsoft wavetable

Why is my first input monitor always muted when I run Cubase?

This is because we support ASIO 2.0 Direct Monitoring. Direct Monitoring gives Cubase control

If you don’t like this behavior, you can always go to Options/Audio Setup/System…., click on 1 n3 d5 Y( o$ F6 @# J
“ASIO Control Panel” and uncheck the box labeled “Enable ASIO 2.0 Direct Monitoring”. This will
