When I record my vocals into ACID Music 3.0 or Sound Forge Studio, the plaback only comes thru one of my monitors. I use the Delta 44 audio card, the Audio Buddy mic preamp and Roland MA-8 monitors. I just want to hear my vocals thru both monitors. Any suggestions?

I know you can't specifically select a device for output in ACID Music 3.0, but can you select a specific input for recording?

It also sounds like one channel is being recorded. How do you have your cables connected to the Delta 44?

I have 4 outputs/4 inputs on the Delta 44. The cables running from my montiors are hooked to outputs 1 & 2 on the Delta 44. My mic has one cable running into input 2 on my AudioBuddy mic preamp. The preamp has one cable running into input 2 on the Delta 44. I'm using stereo cables for the monitors and TRS cables for my mic hook up.

Thanks for your help!!

Ahhh...each input on the Delta 44 represents one channel; inputs 1 and 2, for example, form a stereo pair. Because you're running only one cable from the preamp to input 2 on the Delta 44, you're only recording one channel of audio.

The solution? Hook up another mic to the Audio Buddy and output that to input 1 on the Delta 44. You should then be able to record in stereo.

HTH,
