Harrison Labs MIXBUS V2.0.2 - Manual (Page 12)

Under each tab is a list of Jack ports. Click on any port name to connect it to the currently selected input.
• Rescan: If any new Jack applications were launched since the dialog was created, click Rescan to show the
new state of the software.
Track/Bus Inspector
Found under the Window menu, the Track/Bus Inspector allows you to route the track inputs, outputs, and redirects
from one convenient location. The tracks/buses are listed on the left, and the right side is similar to the track I/O
dialog, but it allows connection to redirects as well.
The Jack Menu
The Jack menu provides some "global" controls over Mixbus's connection to Jack.
• Disconnect / Reconnect: Mixbus can be "disconnected" and "reconnected" with the Jack server. Normally this
is only used for troubleshooting.
• Latency: On systems that support it, the latency "buffersize" of the soundcard can be adjusted "on the fly" with
these menu entries. A smaller latency setting makes Mixbus feel more responsive, and reduces the delay from
soundcard input to soundcard output. A larger latency setting provides less DSP usage, and a more stable sys-
tem with fewer clicks or glitches, even with a high CPU load.

Note: If you select the "ardour" tab, you will see that you can select any Mixbus port to feed the track, includ-
ing another track/bus output, or the output of the Master bus. This is a quick way to "bounce" the output from
one or more tracks to a single track, or to set up a routing scheme for complicated effects setups. Ardour's routing
provides nearly infinite flexibility, but does not guarantee the timing of complicated routing, so please check the tim-
ing of any complicated bus setups.

Note: The Mixbus sends, and the Master assign button, are not re-routeable with JACK routing. The mixbus
and master sends are an inherent part of the Mixbus engine. By default, all tracks are connected to the Master
bus.
