One importantfeature to understandwellis the Follow control, which is set to “Off” by default.
When Follow is enabled in a particular user interface on a particular Monitor Output, the patch
point (source audio) of that Monitor Output will conveniently “follow” along with you as you
navigate to different processing cores in that user interface. Keep in mind that anyone else
