This section describes the procedure for recording to the Cubase AI4 software we installed earlier via the MW mixer.
For details on operation of the Cubase AI4 software refer to the pdf-format manual provided with the software.
Cubase AI4 Setup
1
To prevent the playback sound from
Cubase AI4 from being directly re-
recorded, set the MW mixer’s 2TR IN/USB
switch to TO MONITOR (
).
2
Launch Cubase AI4.
Windows:
Click [Start]
→
[All Program]
→
[Steinberg Cubase AI
4]
→
[Cubase AI 4] to launch the program. If the ASIO
Multimedia dialog window appears, click [Yes].
Macintosh:
Double-click the [Application]
→
[Cubase AI 4].
• If you specified a file destination when installing
the Cubase AI4 software, launch the applica-
tion from that location.
• Create a Cubase AI4 shortcut or alias on your
desktop so you can easily launch the program
when required.

Select [Device Setup] from the [Device]
menu to open the Device Setup window.
Windows:
Select [VST Audio System] in the [Device] field on the
left side of the window. Select [ASIO DirectX Full
Duplex Driver] in the [ASIO Driver] field on the right
side of the window. A dialog window will appear asking
“Do you want to switch the ASIO driver?”. Click
[Switch].
Macintosh:
Select [VST Audio System] in the [Device] field on the
left side of the window. Select [USB Audio CODEC (2)]
in the [ASIO Driver] field on the right side of the win-
dow, and click [OK]. Skip ahead to step 6, below.
Under Mac OS X you can select either [USB
Audio CODEC (1)] or [USB Audio CODEC (2)]
in the [ASIO Driver] field. Normally you should
select [USB Audio CODEC (2)], but if you will
only be playing back and mixing previously
recorded data you can select [USB Audio
CODEC (1)] to lighten the load on the com-
puter’s CPU.
