help please!

ok so i bought a new delta 44 today and i've taught myself how it works and whatnot. On my computer i have 2 different soundcards (an audigy and the delta). right now i have the delta44 set as the default recording card and the audigy is the playback card. i can record and playback no problem.

my problem is that when i am just getting levels i cant hear anything. all i can hear is what i've recorded. even while recording i cant hear anything.

i am using cool edit pro as my recording software and i am using an mixer as my preamp

any suggestions? might it hafta do with the fact that i have nothing pluged into the outputs on the delta? im just figuring that i can use the same set of speakers for my computer as recording monitors

Im not sure if that will work.
In other words, recording to your 44 whilst trying to monitor real time with your SB.
I think in order to monitor while recording you will need to tie the outputs of the 44 to your speakers or monitors.
Also be sure to check that record monitor in the 44's control panel is active--not muted.
