I think I finally figured out this mixing/recording setup pretty well. Here is my setup I did a wiring diagram of it (attached). I am asking for any feedback and also posting the diagram, maybe it can help someone else figure things out. Things I learned about this setup are:
1) The +4db out from the mixer are too hot for the Scarlett inputs, even on instrument. The rec out -10db works beautifully.
2) Splitting the rec out from the mixer allows me to run my computer speakers (rca only) without having to change the audio source in the computer settings.
3) This setup allows for recording or Karaoke playing/mixing along with whatever the computer is playing.
My question I have is: Why am I not getting a feedback or echo-back loop since I am running the output from the Scarlett right back into the mixer? And the output from the mixer back into the scarlett? It seems to work fine but I am not sure why I am not getting a weird loop problem? Can anyone shed some light on this?
