Hi everyone,

I’m trying to set up a mastering workflow on the ADI-2/4 Pro SE and would appreciate some guidance on whether this is possible (and the best way to approach it).

Constant routing (must stay always active)
USB Playback 3/4 → Rear TRS Outputs 3/4
This feeds my analogue chain and returns into Analog Inputs 1/2

This part works fine and should remain unchanged in all cases.

What I’m trying to achieve

I need 3 monitoring “states”:

State 1 – Main monitors (ADAT)

ADAT Out active
XLR 1/2 muted
Phones muted
TRS 3/4 stays active (insert return)

State 2 – Second monitors (XLR)

XLR 1/2 active
Phones muted
ADAT ideally muted BUT still clocking (my Trinnov Nova loses lock if ADAT is fully disabled)

State 3 – Headphones

Phones active (front TRS 1/2)
XLR muted
ADAT muted

Main issues / questions
Is there a way to store and quickly recall such output configurations?

Can ADAT be “silent” but still maintain clock (so connected monitors don’t drop)?

What’s the recommended way to handle multi-monitor switching on this unit?

Am I approaching this wrong—should this be done differently within the ADI-2/4 architecture?

The routing itself isn’t the problem—it’s the switching between these states that’s slowing me down.

Any advice or workflow suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
