Output Select Section
 Output Select Buttons Changes the Output Mixer Displayed
The FireStudio Tube mixer has four output mixes: one for each of the FireStudio
Tube’s four stereo outputs: Main, Line Outputs 3 and 4, Line Outputs 5 and 6,
and Headphones.
 Mixer On / Off Button Enables or Disables the Associated Output’s Mixer
When the Mixer On button is illuminated blue, you will be able to create a zero-
latency mix for that output. When the button is off, the DAW streams for that
output will be patched directly to the output.
 Post Fader Output Meters
Displays the Output Level of Each Stereo Pair
These meter postfader levels, which means they represent the actual audio output
levels of your FireStudio Tube.
Master Output Section
 Master Output Fader Changes the Selected Output’s Audio Level
Move the Master Fader up and down to increase and decrease the level of the
selected output’s audio.
The amount of boost or attenuation, measured in decibels, is displayed below the
Channel Fader. The range is from –∞ to 0 dB.
Two virtual LED meters to the right of the Master Fader display the prefader
levels of the audio signal.
The peak value in dBFS of the channel’s audio is displayed directly above the
Master Output’s virtual LED meter.
NOTE: If the peak values display “CLIP,” then your mixer channels and/or your
DAW playback levels should be reduced. The clip indicators clear when
the mouse pointer hovers over them.
