Audio Interface preset

Click 

Launch Quick Setup

 (item #10 in the Device 

tab on page 12) and choose the 

Audio Interface

 

preset. Your MOTU interface is now set up for 
operation as an audio interface with any host 
audio software. For details about customizing the 
audio routing to and from the computer, see 
“Working with the Routing grid” on page 67.

CHOOSE THE MOTU PRO AUDIO DRIVER

Once you’ve made the preparations described so 
far in this chapter, you’re ready to run your audio 
software and enable the MOTU Pro Audio driver, 
which allows your host software to use the 828es 
as an audio interface.

For Mac OS X audio software

For audio software running under Mac OS X, go 
to the menu item or preference where you choose 
the audio device (Core Audio driver) you wish to 
use, and then select the 828es by name. 

For Windows audio software

For audio software running under Windows, go to 
the menu item or preference where you choose the 
ASIO driver you wish to use, and then choose 

MOTU Pro Audio

. If your host audio software 

doesn’t support ASIO, choose the 

MOTU Pro 

Audio 

Wave driver instead.

Figure 8-1: Choosing the MOTU Pro Audio ASIO driver in Cubase.

Where to go in popular audio hosts

Here is the location for this setting in various 
popular audio software host applications:

Other audio software

Consult your software’s manual for further 
information.

REDUCING MONITORING LATENCY

Monitoring latency

 is a slight delay caused by 

running an input signal through your host audio 
software and back out. For example, you might 
hear it when you drive a live guitar input signal 
through an amp modeling plug-in running in 
your audio sequencer.

This delay is caused by the amount of time it takes 
for audio to make the entire round trip through 
your computer, from when it first enters an input 
on the 828es, passes through the interface 
hardware into the computer, through your host 
audio software, and then back out to an output.
