Multimix 8USB track problem

[Soul Coming]

OK, I have the Multimix 8 USB and I use it as my soundcard. I record into my laptop using Cakewalk 2002. I recorded a guitar track on track one, and I wanted to add a track of lead over it to track two. When I did, it recorded the lead, AND the rhythm track onto track two. Not what I had in mind. I know I can record individual tracks on this thing, but I'm not doing something right, right? It's either got to be a setting on my mixer or on Cakewalk that I haven't set right. This is a dumb newbie question, I know, but I'd appreciate the help. Thanks in advance.

I don't know cakewalk at all, but I would check the inputs you have specified for the second track. Also, make sure you don't have the "2-track to mix" button down when trying to record, or it sends the output from the sound card back through the mix. Use the "2-track to control room" for monitoring instead.
