titchyblackcat Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Hi I'm new to USB recording and am using Cubase 12 pro. In the manual it show that the connections to the studio speakers when recording should be from the XLR sockets. Is it OK to monitor from the 1/4" output sockets ? or, will it damage the equipment. Also how do i get to the global settings using the Helix Edit ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you set your outs to line level, either levels should be pretty much the same, the main difference being that the XLR outs are providing a balanced signal which is less prone to whatever interferences. Usually, with shorter cable runs, it doesn't make much of a difference, if any. On 11/16/2022 at 10:20 AM, titchyblackcat said: Also how do i get to the global settings using the Helix Edit ? You don't. Apart from the global EQ, all these settings are only available on the hardware. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
