& b# u9 [8 Z$ R- h- e
When you run Cubase, you may not see some of your outputs. This is probably due to the fact
% V) B. ]" c8 Othat another program is using them. The most likely culprit is the Microsoft wavetable
+ q9 E5 F5 ]+ e; |: k6 G# Ysynthesizer, which is being opened by Cubase as a MIDI output device. Exit Cubase and run the 2 w t8 z# `' k+ L

If your outputs still don’t show up, you may have some other software that’s doing the same thing.
; H7 H n1 z( J: t* f! h6 eLook in the “Setup MME” program for other programs that may be grabbing audio outputs or ( b( t7 o5 x9 I) v. {0 F4 C: O

This is because we support ASIO 2.0 Direct Monitoring. Direct Monitoring gives Cubase control ( |- H6 l& y1 H8 r
over the hardware monitors. When Cubase starts up, it uses DirectMonitoring to mute that
