Sound chain, monitors/speakers

Hello!

FINALY! FINALY I GOT IT! IT FITS SO PERFECT IN MY FLAT... Of course I'm talking about my Mackie Onyx 1640 mixer that I got 4 days ago...!!!
It is just impossible to describe how nice and sexy it looks...!! LOL!!
And not to mention... my latency is now, without any calibration, 6ms in/12 ms out...

Anyway. In Cubase SX I now select Onyx Asio device to select the mixer...
Before I had my mixer I recorded thru my Guitar-FX unit (zoom) and thru the soundcard. And here is the question...

Is it possible to connect the mixer to the computer and then to my stereo and thus use my regualry stereo speakers until I get cash to buy a descent pair of studio speakers?
Is this a working temporary solution or something definitly to avoid??

If so, how do I send the guitar/mic signal to the mixer, then to Cubase SX in the computer, and from Cubase out to the stereo?

THX!!

You should have got a CD or DVD with the mixer. That should explain all. Check this out, too:

If your stereo rocks, you might well be better off with it than many budget studio monitors...

Well I've been thru the manuals and they are about average so to speak...

Got that working but I must be making a really simple fault somewhere...
The mixers led-lights next to the faders.. works fine.. but the sound won't show up in Cubase SX... Somehow I can't seem to get sound to computer... I feel this this must be a simple easy thing that I miss somewhere...

When I open "device->device setup->vst audiobay" and under there I find my onyx mixer which I installed earlier. When opening an old project, selecting a certain track and want to change its ins and out channel I can only select ASIO MUTIMEDIA crap... WHY? and HOW to change that is ain't so...?

The same happens if I open the mixer in cubase (F3). On top of each channel it says, input routing/output routing. Here, I can also ONLY choose the ASIO MULTIMEDIA crap... Of couse I would like to select Mackie Asio Onyx...

The installation of the onyx worked really fine(!)..but nevertheless the sound dont reach Cubase... any suggestions? My feeling of this is that it is a really basic thing that I do wrong somewhere... and that it should be easy to solve...but then, I'm also not a computer nerd...LOL!

THX!!!
