[OKN]

Ok, Sorry if this is a dumb question.
I am looking to ugrade/crossgrade to a ProTools HD system, I was also looking at getting the D-Command console.
I am interested as to how the Xmon works with the ProTools software. Will I need to create a buss that out puts to the Cues? Can I simply do a "Master to cues" type thing to get the backing track to the cues, then add any other incoming signals I wish to be in the cues?
Nornally when tracking, I open up 20 or so tracks, then take and take and take to a new track each time, I find this the easiest way to comp the vocal down to the best take. Can I simply mirror a signal from the input to the cues section, or will I need to set up a send from every channel I wish to record on?
How much latency is there using the Xmon? Is this latency always the same no matter how much processing is going on inside protools even if some of the processing is RTAS?

Thankyou in advance.

One other thing, Have all the monitoring issues with the XMON been fixed, the dimming staying latched and such.
