[adude]

i just moved my computer and for some reason now i can hear myself when i record..im wondering if a setting change somewhere in my computer..caus the setup is all the same... the left and right inputs go into the main outputs and the xlr cable goes where it should..how can i fix this???

its all about monitoring settings and latency.

Describe your setup including daw and sound card and which driver system you are using

most of us find that to be a good thing.

Its called Direct monitoring. If you have latency then this is a bad thing, if not then its a good thing.

Actually, that would be foldback, though you don't hear that term so much these days. Is it delayed? If so, you'll want to change from software monitoring to hardware monitoring.

its not delayed..i..i am just not used to recording this way..though i will get used to it..maybe even prefer recording like this hopefully

You can hear yourself when you record? Do you mean as an echo, or did you mean you can't hear yourself, whereas before you could? No offense, but the mis-spellings and such make me think you might have meant something else.
If you can, though, get rid of the Sound Blaster and get a card meant for recording--like the E-mu 0404, $99.00, with zero-latency monitoring with effects, through an on board AUX buss. 48k - 24b recording resolution, too. (Up to 96k, if you want to go all out, but no effects up there.)

It can be either a good or bad thing. Generally one would want to hear what is being recorded, but in certain cases, for instance plugging a clean guitar in to get distortion via software, you obviously wouldn't want to hear the clean signal. Usually it is easy to toggle it on and off via the recording software, typically a little speaker icon.
