Re: [AN1x] Stoopid Newbie Troubles

Hello Dave !
i think that your problems are there :

Yes, because both channels are not mixed properly . If you need only a 
mono signal to plug in your sound card or mixer you must use the "L- 
mono" output only with a mono cable . Don't plug anything in the other 
line output (A.K.A. "Right"). Using a mono sound as this you cannot have 
all the stereo based effect like dynamic panning. But it will sound 
correctly . I've tried it in a guitar amp (mono, of course) and the 
sound was OK. Not very good because the frequency range of a guitar is 
narrower than a synthesizer and the guitar amps are designed 
for....guitars. But it worked ; in fact it was to test the auxiliary 
input of the amp...
Cheers
