Therefore, if you are doing DirectMonitoring with Mia, the input will be simultaneously sent out 3 |; t$ \! y; X& {+ T% i! Y

Help! I don’t see all of my inputs and outputs.
8 q5 |6 H8 z$ _: y8 V9 g& J- c4 e0 W: l
When you run Cubase, you may not see some of your outputs. This is probably due to the fact - u9 ?# h8 I; v( }0 A5 b/ r, ?" T4 }
that another program is using them. The most likely culprit is the Microsoft wavetable : K" J6 d& n* Q# T+ w5 B; D6 q2 M/ }
synthesizer, which is being opened by Cubase as a MIDI output device. Exit Cubase and run the
" j/ X( X; q( y8 W; D6 z, _, [“Setup MME” program. Select “Microsoft GS Wavetable SW Synth” and click the “Set Inactive” B& o8 I. r3 c# e

3 Z+ z; u3 Y% L$ s6 k" OLook in the “Setup MME” program for other programs that may be grabbing audio outputs or 9 K5 ? g' I/ c0 H# s- S r

This is because we support ASIO 2.0 Direct Monitoring. Direct Monitoring gives Cubase control 3 ^$ ]. \' g' d
over the hardware monitors. When Cubase starts up, it uses DirectMonitoring to mute that
