Selecting a monitoring source​

Each headphone output can receive a different source.

Select the source for each output through the System Panel in ORIA Control.

Available sources include:

  • USB L + R
  • USB 17 + 18
  • USB 19 + 20
  • Software Mixer — Master Mix
  • Software Mixer — Cue A
  • Software Mixer — Cue B
  • ADAT and Dante, when available and configured

Use USB 17 + 18 or USB 19 + 20 when a connected renderer provides a separate binaural headphone mix.

ORIA’s low-latency software mixer can create separate Cue A and Cue B mixes for performers while recording.
