RME users: Is TotalMix FX a replacement for Control Rm?

Hey papi61 or any other TotalMix FX users:

At 13:45 on this TotalMix FX vid https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sCH3qVaLL-I they talk about the “Cue” button, but it is more of a complete solo button than an equivalent of the Cubase “Listen” button (the latter of course where the other tracks are not completely muted, but simply turned down some dB).

I thought the “Dim” button in the TotalMix FX Control Room might be the ticket, but apparently it only describes how much all the channels are dimmed when the Talkback Mic is active?

Can anyone point me to where I can learn about the TotalMix FX equivalent of the Cubase “Listen” button please?

Or if there’s no “Listen” button equivalent on the TotalMix FX - as I really like that feature in the Cubase Control Room … how crazy would it be to have the Cubase Control Room activated but everything disabled but “Listen”, and use TotalMix FX for the rest of the control room functions?

Thanks -

You can´t use totalmixFX for “the rest of the control room functions”, since Totalmix FX simply doesn´t have them.

Thanks for that tc.

I was thinking of TotalMix FX having functionally similar/identical to Cubase “Control Room”: “Speaker B”, different submixes that can be used in lieu of Cubase Control Room’s “Studio Sends”, the “Mono” button, the Talkback “Dim” button, to start with off the top of my head.

Why do you say, “TotalMix FX simply doesn’t have” other Control Functions … am I misunderstanding the above?

Thanks again -
