DirectMonitoring for Mia is a little tricky. Cubase (or any other ASIO program) doesn’t know 0 d) t9 Z5 q# V$ Y4 ]
about Mia’s virtual outputs; it just sees Mia as four inputs and eight outputs. Unfortunately, Mia’s & s& z" U( Y4 ^7 G

( i3 F! P3 Y" V3 Q( X) J& S
This is because we support ASIO 2.0 Direct Monitoring. Direct Monitoring gives Cubase control { n3 `# z7 i; F
over the hardware monitors. When Cubase starts up, it uses DirectMonitoring to mute that
