I am using Cubase LE 4 with a Lexicon Alpha to do some simple recording. I have a microphone plugged into the Alpha's XLR jack, which I guess is the right (as opposed to left) input. The alpha RCA outputs go to my two speakers, or sometimes headphones plugged into the speakers.

When I record into a stereo track, I only hear playback through the right side. I figured that was because there was nothing going into the left side, which explained why when I panned all the way left it went silent. I tried recording into a mono track, but nothing recorded. I just had a blank track. I tried to check that the track was hooked up to a bus, but I couldn't really tell.

Is there some way to toy with the buses to make this work? I must be making some really fundamental mistake, but I don't know what it is. Any and all help is appreciated! Thanks in advance!
