| I haven't used any other speakers to monitor yet, but the mix, and the recording in general, is still in its early stages, so this isn't horribly devastating. I'll post a sample tomorrow. When I got h ... |

Well, I know Protools can do it.
No problem there.
As far as wiring - Which M-Audio box are we talking about?
The Solo has separate line inputs, as does the FW410...

Not if you know how to wire everything up, nor if your DAW can input from one side at a time... (Input 1 = Stereo In Left...)
