Steinberg Houston
About Houston
Houston is a MIDI/USB remote control device designed especially for
use with VST audio applications such as Cubase SX/SL. With clearly
laid out controls (including touch sensitive motorized faders, rotary
knobs, transport controls and a jog/shuttle wheel) Houston allows you
to control virtually every mixer parameter in Cubase SX/SL, without
having to use the computer keyboard or mouse.
•
For details about parameters and hands-on mixing techniques, please
see the Houston documentation.

JL Cooper CS-10
Specifications
The CS-10 can remote control 32 channels (in groups of 8). The following CS-10 controls will remote control the following parameters
for each channel strip:
• Fader: volume
• Solo and Mute: solo and mute
• Sel: select channel for editing
The following parameters can be remote controlled for each selected
channel using the six rotary knobs on the CS-10:
Dial Parameter
Send 1 Effect send 1
Send 2 Effect send 2
Pan Pan
Boost/cut EQ 1 Gain
Frequency EQ 1 Frequency
Bandwidth EQ 1 Q Factor
•
The CS-10 function keys 1 - 4 are used to select channels 1 - 32 in
groups of 8.
Function key 1 selects channels 1 - 8, function key 2 selects channels 9 - 16, and so
on.
•
If you hold down the function key “Shift” and then move a fader, the
two indicators beside the fader will indicate whether the fader position
is below or above the current fader level in Cubase SX/SL.
If the upper indicator is lit, the fader position on the panel is above the fader level in
Cubase SX/SL and vice versa. When both indicators are dark, the fader positions are
matched for that channel.
•
The CS-10 Play, Stop, Record, Rewind and Fast Forward transport
controls control the equivalent functions in Cubase SX/SL.

4 – 14 JL Cooper CS-10
The CS-10 supports “MIDI Feedback”, allowing the mute, solo and selection status of channels in Cubase SX/SL to be indicated on the panel.
For this (and the fader position indication described above) to work, you
need a two-way MIDI connection between the CS-10 and Cubase SX/
SL.
