Zero-Latency Monitoring with your Multimix USB: 
 
Latency is the amount of time it takes for a signal (such as your voice or 
instrument) to get converted into digital audio, recorded into your program (such 
as Cubase LE), and then sent back out to your speakers (or headphones) for you 
to hear what you are playing.  This delay is usually only a few milliseconds, but it 
is long enough to distract, disorient, and otherwise annoy anyone trying to record 
him/herself (especially if you’re trying to record on top of exiting tracks in a 
program like Cubase LE). 
 
You can set up your Multimix USB mixer to monitor yourself without any latency.  
This zero-latency monitoring is extremely useful because it allows you to hear 
yourself while you’re recording without any irritating delayed echoes.  To set up 
zero-latency monitoring, follow these instructions: 
 
 
Installing and Configuring the Multimix in Windows XP: 
Setting up the Multimix is very easy—all you have to do is plug in the power 
cable and connect the USB cable from the PC to the Multimix and you’re ready to 
go.  No software installation is necessary under Windows XP. 
 
Maximizing Stability and Performance in Windows XP: 
The following is not required, but for better performance and increased stability, 
we recommend you set up Windows to route non-Cubase sounds to another 
sound output on your computer (most computers have built-in sound nowadays 
and you can route non-Cubase sounds to that output).  You can do this by 
following these instructions: 
 
1. Open the Windows Control Panel
