Setup Scenarios

With VIP in Your DAW

The included VIP software lets you get the most control and function out of your Advance 61. VIP is
essentially a host for your plugins, a hub where you can create, edit, and manage your patches (presets) for
your various plugins. When VIP is used as a plugin, as in this scenario, all audio from VIP will be sent into
your DAW on its track. You can switch between Advance 61's Control Mode to control VIP or MIDI Mode to
control your DAW (see the
Tip: You can use Control Edit Mode to assign some knobs to MIDI CC messages instead of VST parameters.
This lets you control your plugin and your DAW while in Control Mode. See
more information.
Tip: As with other plugins, you can use multiple instances of VIP in your DAW, each on its own track.

With VIP in Standalone Mode (Without a DAW)

You can use VIP in Standalone Mode without a DAW. This works the same way as when used as a plugin
(described above) except the audio is routed to your computer's sound card instead of to your DAW. You
can use Advance 61's Control Mode to control VIP (see the
