Recording with Kemper and Focusrite Scarlett interface

This sounds a little odd to me ( bit of a poor joke there)...

I use a scarlett 18i8 but in mono...straight out of the main outs and it sounds really good. Conversely I've never had a great sound out of the headphones.

I think people have touched upon the possible issues but the outputs will sound different for different reasons ( different monitoring, no space setting etc).

I might be wrong but I suspect its not an issue with the interface and probably not a stereo vs mono thing....

?

Im going to get the gear out later and put i a post about my findings with AKG 701s

Im resurecting a old similar post in doing so,

But for the sake of debate so be it.
