ULN-2 Quick Start Guide

The Talkback Source at the top of this window can be set to any mono audio input. “Listenback”
sends the currently selected Monitor Controller source to all Cue Sends when selected. Multiple
independent Cues Sends are fully supported.
A logical place to start would be to name the first two Aux mix buses “Cue 1” and “Cue 2”, then add
more Cue and effects mix buses as you build up your session; this allows you to provide independent
monitor mixes to performers during tracking.
Probably the most straightforward application of Cue Sends in an MHLink domain would be have an
MHLink box at each musicians‘ station with one Cue mix output assigned to the headphone jack of
each box. That way each person has direct monitoring and their own independent volume control
knob with plenty of inputs for their mics and instruments, and it all still appears to the DAW as a
single audio device.
