Figure 10.131: “Configure Mixer”: Bus Strip routing to Monitor/Cue Controllers
So ‘Bus Output’ can be considered an extra post-fader bus send to any available analog or digital output,
SCP USB out, or as an additional return route to your Host computer. Bus Outputs are often used to feed
the 3d Record Panel, Spectrafoo (Metric Halo's host-based metering and audio analysis program), and
outboard hardware encoding and metering systems.
Bottom Color Bar
Clicking on the Bottom Color Bar brings up a macOS color selector, from which you may choose a color
for that Mixer strip. In the Appearance pane of the MIOConsole3d Preferences you may select whether to
color the entire mixer strip or just the top and bottom color bars.
Figure 10.132: Console3d Prefs: Appearance: Strip Color configurator
The Bottom and Top Color Bars mirror each other, so what applies to one applies to the other, except that
you may show or hide each independently with “Configure Mixer Strip Controls…”.
Scribble Strip
Double-click to name any Mixer strip. The name you enter in the Scribble Strip will be propagated through-
out the 3d user interface wherever a Mixer Strip name is found, including plug-in headers, Link Group,
Mute Group, DCA and Bus Assign selection windows.

Scribble Strip names are also used to name sound files recorded in the Record Panel.
