1.
 
Selecting the Alesis MasterControl:  Be sure that your MasterControl is shown here.  If it is not 
shown, then your computer does not “see” it.  Check the mixer’s connection to your computer. 
You can chain multiple Alesis Firewire devices together via their Firewire ports.  If you do so, you 
must choose one of them, here, as the clock master for your entire system. 
2.
 
Setting the Mixer Nickname:  You can change the name of the mixer as it’s seen by the 
recording program on your particular computer.  Once this is done, choose “Reset All” in Cubase’s 
Devices/Device Setup window (or the equivalent command in other programs) to make the change 
to the mixer flow down to the names of the input and output channels.

Specify the Audio Clock Source:   
y
 
Internal:  Use this setting if you are using the MasterLink 
on its own, without any ADAT or S/PDIF input devices. 
y
 
FireWire:  Use this setting if you have another FireWire 
audio device connected to the MasterControl and you 
want that device’s clock to drive the MasterControl’s 
clock.  No additional cables are necessary—the 
MasterControl will read the clock signal coming from the 
other device over the FireWire cable.  
y
 
ADAT and S/PDIF options:  Use an appropriate setting here if you are using an external 
ADAT or S/PDIF analog-to-digital converter. 
To open the control panel within 
Cubase in Windows, go to 
Devices 
f 
Device Setup… 
f VST MultiTrack
then under the “ASIO Alesis Firewire” 
Device, click the “Control Panel” 
If you’re using the 
MasterControl by itself, you 
don’t need to worry about 
clocking.  Just make sure that 
the “Clock Source” parameter 
in the MasterControl’s control 
panel is set to “Internal.”
