VST - Control Room (Cubase Pro only)

This page contains settings for the Control Room.

Show Control Room Volume in Transport Panel

If this option is activated, the Transport panel will display the Control Room Volume if the Control Room is enabled. If the Control Room is disabled, the volume of the Main Mix bus will be shown in the Transport panel.

Auto Disable Talkback Mode

Allows you to specify if Talkback is disabled during recording, during playback and recording, or not at all.

Note

Set the Talkback DIM level to 0 dB so as not to radically change the mix level when punching in and out of record mode.

Use Phones Channel as Preview Channel

If this option is activated, the Phones channel will be used for monitoring. If this option is deactivated, the Monitor channel in the Control Room will be used.

Dim Cue during Talkback

If this option is activated, the cue mix heard in a studio will be dimmed (by the amount set in the Talkback Dim Level field in the Control Room) for as long as the Talkback channel is used. If this option is deactivated, the cue mix level remains the same during Talkback.

Exclusive Device Ports for Monitor Channels

If this option is activated, the port assignment for Monitor channels is exclusive. If your scenario does not require you to assign ports to several Monitor channels, it is recommended to activate this option. This way you can make sure that you do not accidentally assign ports to inputs/outputs and Monitor channels at the same time.

Note

This setting is saved with the Control Room presets.

Reference Level

The reference level is the level that is used in calibrated mixing environments, such as film dubbing stages. Use this option to specify the reference level that can be assigned to the Control Room level.

Note

You can also manually adjust the reference level in the Control Room settings.

Main Dim Volume

Use this to set the amount of gain reduction applied to the Control Room channel when the DIM button is activated.
