A powerful digital mixer is built into your io.  This digital mixer 

allows you to route your analog and digital inputs directly to the 

outputs, completely bypassing the computer. This hardware-based 

routing allows musicians to monitor their performances with no 

perceptible delay.   

 

There may be times when you find this functionality to be 

unnecessary.  For instance, when you are recording simpler 

projects that put less strain on your computer, you can generally 

choose lower buffer settings in the Alesis IO control panel.  This 

way, you can use the input monitoring feature of  your DAW 

recorder, and the latency (delay) experienced by your performers 

will be very slight. 

 

However, when you add more tracks and plug-ins, you will need to 

increase your buffer sizes in order for your system to keep 

operating smoothly.  At this point, it makes sense to mute the 

Input Monitoring on your DAW and use the IO14/26’s digital 

mixer. 

 

 

 

 

 

Once you have connected all your recording gear and established a 

computer connection (as shown by the   light on the io), open the 

Alesis Hardware Direct Monitoring and Routing panel by clicking 

on the shortcut on your desktop.
