Cubase integration

Using Cubase, the AXR4 reaches its full potential, thanks to its capability to record and playback in 32-bit integer format.

Five different windows give comprehensive control over all settings: the mixer, the matrix mixer, the meter, show/hide channels and settings. This guarantees an excellent overview of all levels and routing at all times. These settings can be saved to the AXR4 to recall different scenes, depending on the chosen workflow.
