problems with busses and cubase

[protoculture]

I'm trying to set up a bus to use, so that I can record my Virus into cubase into an audio track.

So at the top of the audio track i've selected the Echo I/O bus ( renamed to Virus-In Bus )... and the sound does come in through that bus. But NOT onto the audio track. I want to be able to record and add FX etc to the sounds of the virus.

My mixer looks like this...I want to set up Audio Track 1 to use the Virus-In Bus.... I can select it, but there's no sound coming through. It's just coming through the main Virus-In Bus and not the Audio Track 1 Bus.



[ Virus-In Bus ] ||| [ Midi Track 1 ] [ Midi Track 2 ] [ Audio Track 1 ] [ Audio Track 2 ]



I only have one input into the computer with the echo, would cubase be hogging that for general use?
