3.1.4 The Device Window: FireStudio Project Mixer
The FireStudio Project’s Device window allows you to create five stereo monitor mixes. The mixes can be
renamed and saved. You can also rename your inputs and playback streams.
These mixes have no effect on what is being recorded in your host application. This has obvious advantages.
However, it is vital to remember that lowering the fader in the Device window on a channel strip that is
clipping will not lower the signal that may also be clipping in your host application. You must set the level for
the recording using the gain knobs on the face of the FireStudio Project. If your signal is too hot in your
DAW, lower them with these gain controls.
A quick note on playback streams: Wherever you see "DAW" in the FireStudio Project Device window, this is
a playback stream from your host application (or DAW). Traditionally, if you want to route a track in your
DAW to a physical output on your interface, you assign this output in your host application. Because the
FireStudio Project Device window provides much more flexible routing, you can now route this same track to
one output or every output, by itself or as part of a mix.
Output Select Section

Output Select Buttons Changes the Output Mixer Displayed
The FireStudio Project mixer has five output mixes: one for each of the
FireStudio Project’s five stereo outputs: General Purpose and S/PDIF. The
mix created for General Purpose outputs 1 and 2 will also be routed to the
main analog outputs and the headphone outputs.
 Mixer On/Off Button Enables or Disables the Associated Output’s Mixer
When the Mixer On button is illuminated blue, you will be able to create a
zero-latency mix for that output. When the button is off, the DAW streams
for that output will be patched directly to the output.

Post Fader Output Meters
Displays the Output Level of Each Stereo Pair
These meter postfader levels, which means they represent the actual audio
output levels of your FireStudio Project.
