3. At this point the mix is going out all 8 analog outputs and then being summed to stereo in analog in

the D-Box, and now it has to be recorded back into the DAW. If you have any outboard gear that you

like to put across the whole mix, this is where you would put it- between the D-Box Sum Output and

the Aurora line input. Once the cables are plugged in properly, all you need to do is:

• Create a stereo Aux Track to receive the mix in the DAW. This allows you to put plugins across the

whole mix, and record them to the final print track.

• Set the input of this Aux Track to 7-8 (or whichever line inputs you chose for your mix return), and

the output to an internal buss that you aren’t already using.

• Create a new stereo audio track in your DAW to monitor and record the mix.

• Set the input of this track to the buss that you used for the output of the Aux.

• Put that track on input monitor mode so that you can hear the mix even when you’re not recording

it. Set the output of that track to be the AES out of the Aurora, which will be sent back out to the

D-Box.

4. Select DAW on the front of the D-Box in order to monitor through the D-Box D/A, which will allow you

to hear the very last step in the mix process. This completes the full round trip of the mix, going from

DAW to D-Box, back to DAW, and again out to the D-Box for final monitoring.

*When using an AES16e card, the Aurora AES i/o is used to connect to the card, and therefore cannot

be used to connect to the D-Box. To connect the Aurora to the card, you will need this cable:

. In order to feed the D-Box DAW input, you will need to use the
