RL of my dig.piano are plugged into RL of 2i2, it records amazingly in stereo, but the direct monitoring is still MONO.See manual here (page 11) Cant find anything about panning or stereo monitoring in that manual page.So how exactly should I pan You mean in a DAW You know theres no way to pan in the actual box.Nice quality and you should easily be able to monitor in stereo.
Most of the midi based functions are done in a DAW or in the various music software. Some software packages are more capable than others, so be aware of that upfront. In Sonar, its really easy to hear what youre doing in real time. IN fact, if you set the Focusrite up properly, and let it be the DEFAULT sound card, you dont even need any software running for it to echo the audio inputs back to your speakers in real time. To get a digital keyboard to echo back, you will likely need to either run its audio outputs into the audio inputs in the Focusrite or have a DAW running where you have a sampler set up and running from the keyboards midi input. For audio on the 2i2, that means having a left and a right output from the keyboard and putting one into the 2i2s right channel and the other into the left channel. Waaa laa. 2 channels and the result is stereo. Ive never tried to get stereo from midi and dont know if its possible. Its one of those things I never tried to do of had a need to do. Maybe someone else who works alot with midi can elaborate further on midi and stereo. To OP: I was just pointing out it will sound mono if the two outputs are not panned on their way to the listening device. The 2i2 headphone out may combine LR to sound MONO (both centered), but the outputs will remain 2 separate channels (LR). It has no mixer applet and may default to using either input panned center, instead of LR. If it has no control to pan these signals to the headphones (ala mixer applet) it may have both centered. If I had to make a choice in this situation Id probably prefer it as is so when recording a single channel (like a vocal mic) it isnt forced to the left side. BTW: Welcome to the forums. Thank you Im not sure about getting a Mtrack instead of 2i2, even if it has stereo monitoring I dont think its a good deal. Quote: To get stereo monitoring, you must have a stereo source.
