This destination setting is called "Work mode." The n8 provides two Work mode options (ST MIX and HARDWARE MIX), and the n12 provides three Work mode options (ST MIX, HARDWARE MIX, 5.1 MIX). You can change the Work mode setting at any time as appropriate for your situation. For example, you can select ST MIX for recording, then change to HARDWARE MIX for mixdown. To select a Work mode, use the WORK MODE switches in the DAW Remote Control section. You can press a desired WORK MODE switch to change the Work mode in Cubase while Cubase is linked to the mixer.

As you turn the knob clockwise, the volume of the metronome increases. If you rotate this knob, then change the level in Cubase, the level of the n8/n12 metronome will change accordingly.

The following paragraphs describe each Work mode. ■ 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.
