How come when I plug my ipod into one of the phono jack inputs on my mixer, I can't hear it playing through my monitor mix along with my mics?
I'd like to be able to play along to a track or tracks with my drums, and record that as a single mono track in Cubase.
It's a Yamaha MG166C-USB mixer. Each of the inputs has XLR, and a couple of standard jacks that an instrument can plug into, and I noticed if I took the cable out of the ipod on the ipod end of it, I could hear THAT in the mix..that scratchy noise stuff.
I'm just using a guitar cable at the mixer, stepped down with a little adapter thingy (which I've proven good..all components are verified good) to a small headphone jack at the ipod. I've used the guitar cord to patch through some simple microphone applications before, with the same headphone adapter to the microphone IN port on my laptop, with no problem.
But could this be a stereo/mono problem with the mixer's input? I'd think it would at least playthrough one side of my monitor headphones if that was the case.
Help?
