MOTU has a new free software update for all users of the company’s “mk3” FireWire audio interfaces. The new software includes CueMix FX, which provides graphic, onscreen access to the mixing and processing features built into interfaces such as the 828mk3, 896mk3, UltraLite-mk3, and Traveler-mk3. CueMix FX also provides visual audio analysis tools including a real-time FFT display that can be super-imposed on top of the graphic EQ curve, a real-time spectrogram “waterfall” display, which can be combined with the FFT display or can operate separately, and an oscilloscope that can be used to analyze and compare harmonic content, view transients, detect clips, observe the effects of processing, and much more.
