Dear Joeri, > Personally, I still think that monitoring is much more flexible when you set > it up with your external mixer... unless you have Protools of course, which > is also very flexible... of course you are right, but remember: our job way back then had nothing to do with midi/audi sequencing. We needed to setup a flexible PC-based system which was able to routine any incomming audio to any output available with just a mouse-click... it was a hard job, but the result is now very pleasant thanks to the routing capabilities of Cubase VST and our infamous programming skills ;-)) If you like to know more, I can include it in my next mail to you, which is halfways on its way... see ya there... Bye, bye Thommy
