■ ST MIX
In this Work mode, all audio tracks are mixed in
Cubase, then output to the n8/n12 DAW monitor
channels (n12: L&R, n8: L&R).
To monitor the Cubase signals, turn on the DAW TO ST
[ON] switch to add output signals from Cubase to the
mixer’s STEREO buses, then monitor the signals via the
STEREO buses. If you wish to monitor only the output
signals from Cubase, turn on the C-R SOURCE SELECT
[DAW] switch.
■ HARDWARE MIX
In this Work mode, the output signal from each Cubase
audio track is individually input to each n8/n12 input
channel, then mixed and processed via the compressor
or equalizer.
When this mode is selected, signals from the DAW
(DAW inputs) will be sent to all the input channels, and
the DAW LED in the INPUT SELECT switch area will light
up.
■ 5.1 MIX
In this mode, audio tracks are routed to the Cubase
surround buses. The signals mixed to the surround
buses can be monitored via the n12 Control Room
monitor. For more information on surround monitoring,
refer to page 48.

• You cannot set Work mode to 5.1 MIX if you are
using Cubase Studio 5/Cubase Studio 4/Cubase
Essential 5/Cubase Essential 4/Cubase AI 5/
Cubase AI 4 since neither application supports the
surround environment.
• Before you switch Work modes, you must first
create I/O buses in Cubase so that audio data can
be transferred between Cubase and the n8/n12. If
you create a project using one of the n8/n12
project templates, the I/O buses will be created
automatically. If you plan to create I/O buses
manually, refer to the section “Bus connections of
n8/n12 and DAW” on page 60.
