when i record now it only records to the left channel irigged it to go to both but i wanna know why it only went to the left and also not a cep prob but why do the headphones not work when i plug em in tot he outputs
 
after puttin it in i found out the headphone doesnt work in the 3 or fourth output can anyone help?
 
Dunno. But I'm running Cool Edit and AA on a Delta 44 with no problems, so I'm guessing the problem isn't the soundcard, but a setting somewhere.
 
ok so far for me to record in mono i have to record it to the left channel even though on play back it comes out in both moniters which is ok

now how do i make it that the out put use the two moniters AND the headphoones?

all 4 outputs are mono. You'd need to run a left & right out say outputs 3 & 4 to a headphone amplifier then plug your cans into that


That's the great thing about upgrading to a decent quality soundcard....suddenly all your other gear needs upgraded too. Before you know it you're in your late 30's, divorced and STILL throwing money into a bottomless pit. Enjoy ;)
 
is the headphone amp a must cuz the headphones if i plug em into 1 or 2

Well, yeah, headphones are gonna need some kinda amp. You're gonna need to run the signal from the soundcard through some kinda amp if you want to hear it - a mixer, for instance - so that you can hear your stuff either through headphones or speakers.
 
what im saying is that my headphones work if i plug em in either one or two well the left side works but i can rig that i just got a idea that if i just put the vocals being recorded to one side and add the beat to another id be gona this is still theory imma test it now
 
The jack sockets of the cards breakout box are mono and balanced. They are line level and not intended to drive headphones directly, although they may have amplifiers capable of doing so to some degree, they are not designed for it. You really should use a headphone amplifer.

Although they are mono jacks, the computer sees them as left and right channels of a stereo pair, 1/2, 3/4 etc.

If you want to have both headphone and monitor speakers, you could use output 3 (left) and 4 (right) for the speakers amplifiers and select Delta 44 out 3/4 as the main stereo output bus in your software (options, device order in CEP multitrack and set 3/4 for use in the Edit view (EV)).

In the soundcards driver control panel, you can set output 1/2 to run off the Monitor Mixer (it won't let you use 3/4 for this). With the headphone amp running off Output 1 (left) and Output 2 (Right). The faders in the Monitor Mix will let you monitor any of the inputs and outputs over the headphones. With the speakers running off 3/4, you will only hear stereo playback of recordings. Assuming you can switch your speakers off, this setup will let you monitor everything over headphones while recording without the speakers getting picked up by the microphone.

In the CEP multitrack, each track has a properties dialog. This lets you decide whether it's a mono or stereo track. If it's mono, pick left or right inputs to suit what you have plugged into the Delta inputs.
1/2 - Left, 1 is the "left" input from jack 1
1/2 - Right, input from jack 2
3/4 - Left, 3 is left input from jack 3
3/4 - Right, input from jack 4
With stereo tracks, the left and right channels match the jack numbering as above.
Once recorded, mono tracks have no left and right and will be panned centre unless you change the panning with the pan control.
 
new question the way the card is its like if it was muted that i cant hear my vocals if i speak into it how do i make it unmuted?
 
not that if i speak into the mic while not recording no sounds come out when before the delta i went to the audio props and just unmute the mic but now the delta is the main card and i have no clue how to do it
