    Even more soundcard questions...

    i think it has a bit to do with whether your going through a mono channel or stereo channel. Mono and stereo will come out on your speakers with a pan (when going through the mixer), the difference is that stereo channels are able to be panned before the signal actually enters the desk.. thus a...

I believe this would be the same on the outs. So like the councelman said a headphone amp would be suffice i think . Mip was asking "what...

    Acoustic guitar - warm silk sound

    hey there sax, well i usually stereo mic , if i use an xy config. up on the 12th fret then its rather thin (yet closer to that silky sound) , but if i use a spaced stereo pair then the mic aimed down at the bridge picks up a little too much harsh strum. It may just be this guitarist ive been...
