How to Use Multiple Inputs From a Delta1010 to Cubase

The M-audio Delta 1010 can be configured to record up to ten channels of audio simultaneously within a Cubase project. All it takes is selecting the Delta 1010 in your devices, and in your "Edit Channel Settings" on each of the audio tracks correctly. Each audio track within Cubase has the ability to be routed to each of the ten outputs on the Delta 1010 so that you can record multiple instruments at the same time. This tutorial will show you how to make the proper settings within the recording program in under five minutes.

Instructions

1. Open Cubase, click "Devices," "Device Setup," select the "Audio" tab, and choose "Delta 1010" as the audio source from the drop-down menu on that screen. This will tell Cubase to receive the audio signal from your audio interface by default.

2. Click on an audio track and navigate to the "Edit Channel Settings" section of the track on the left of the screen, then select one of the ten input channels from the Delta 1010. Repeat for up to nine more additional channels.

3. Click the "Record Enable" button on the left of each of the tracks that you want to record onto, then click the "Record" and "Play" buttons on the Transport screen. This will begin recording in Cubase and allow the independent channels of the Delta 1010 to be routed to the audio tracks.

Tips & Warnings

• Do not set multiple audio tracks to the same inputs coming from the Delta 1010, for recording may not be enabled if you do so.
