I've just purchased my studio 68c usb interface, connected to one pc it works fine.
What I want to do somehow is to connect a stereo signal from a 2nd pc and monitor it in stereo so I wont need an additional mixer. What I tried is to connect the stereo output from 2nd pc to the interface on channel 3-4 with rca-trs calbes but it handles them as two separate mono signals. Is it possible somehow or do I need a mixer? |
Hi and welcome to this forum
I don't own a 68c but monitoring inside the interfaces tends to be mono (assuming non-stereo sources like a guitar and a mic) unless UC allows you to set inputs/outputs to stereo. UC (Universal Control) is the driver installer and control app for changing interface settings. Same in the Studio One's I/O settings: You get to choose if Studio One should handle inputs/outputs as mono or as stereo channels. |
MátéNovák wroteThanks, I checked the UC but I can only set the sampling rate from there. I can set stereo monitoring from Studio One but the interface handles the inputs as 2 separate mono tracks by default. To get to the mixer in UC, just left-click anywhere in the window that's not a drop-down menu, like on the image of the interface. The mixer looks like this (for my 1810c; yours might look a little different). Click on input 1, and then click on the stereo button top left (looks like an infinity symbol). It will toggle between Ch. 1 showing panning in the center or Ch. 1 and Ch. 2 with Ch 1. panned to the left and Ch. 2 panned to the right. Note that in the first image, Ch 2 disappears. You'll have to try both settings to see which works for you. Hopefully, one of the two will. |
