DAW/Interface Monitoring help needed - Why I can't monitor in stereo?

  • I have my Kemper main outs (L & R) going into my Motu M4 interface ins (1 & 2). When I use stereo effects from Kemper, I can hear the stereo field just fine from the Kemper headphone jack and from the Motu headphone jack when interface is in playback mode. However, if I turn the Input Monitor Mix knob down to 'Input" then I loose the stereo field and the sound is quite a few db's lower in volume. I suspect this has more to do with the interface itself than the profiler. But what would cause this to happen? Is there some setting in DAW, Motu, or the Profiler I need to set?

  • Ok. Stupid me. I forgot to press and hold the two blue MON buttons at the same time to monitor in stereo. Which will show no separated line in between the highlighted 1 and 2 on the LCD.



    Should I lower the db's for the Kemper main outs to Interface because from "input" to "playback" on the Input Mix knob still has a db increase, or does it not matter?
