Apple Logic Pro /LogicExpress Discussion

Hello Brian,
I am using a MOTU 24 I/O and the included CueMix Console software  
would allow you to select a combination of the inputs and route them  
to one of the outputs as a cue or headphone mix. ( I guess thats why  
they call it CueMix Console?) without any noticeable latency. The  
channels can also be controlled from a control surface, and I have  
hooked mine up with a Mackie Control successfully.

I normally track through the MOTU with a desk to control monitor  
mixes, so don't use the software much, but it is versatile and  
reliable for that purpose, even allows one of the inputs to be  
selected as a talkback channel to the cue mix, with a choice of  
latching or non-latching talkback button!

I don't know if the software works the same way with other audio  
interfaces, but I would guess it does, so I expect you could use it as  
you describe, but you would be a very brave man to use it as a mixer  
for a live performance at the same time!
