Now its time to select the input and output channels. From the 

Devices 

menu, select 

VST 

Connection

. The 

VST Connections

 window appears. Select the 

Inputs

 tab: 

 

For every input channel you are intending to use simultaneously, you need to create a separate bus. 
Cubase LE 4 allows you add mono or stereo busses – what is better for your application depends on 
the situation. For example, if you record from a microphone, you typically would use a mono bus. If 
you record from a CD Player with a stereo line output, you would use a stereo bus instead as the 
signal you are recording is already stereo. With 

Add Bus

 you can add a new 

Mono 

or 

Stereo

 bus. 

The screen shot above shows several mono busses which allows you use each single channel as a 
separate mono input in your projects. In the 

Device Port

 column, you can assign a physical 

hardware input of ESU1808 to each bus. 

Select the 

Outputs 

tab to configure the output busses: 

 

As with inputs, your output busses can also be mono or stereo. The example above shows one 
stereo output bus that you are typically using as your master output and a few mono busses as well. 
Under 

Device Port

 you can assign the physical hardware output channel to each bus. 

You can now start using Cubase LE 4 by opening an existing project or creating a new project. The 
input and output busses you have created can be assigned to the individual tracks of your project.
