Correct Setup Of Mixer To Usb Audio?, Connecting Behringer 1604A to Roland UA Options

[Dunepilot]

I have recently bought a Behringer Eurorack MX 1604A, and would like to be able to link it (and my various
instruments) into my Edirol/Roland UA-30 USB audio box so that I can record and monitor incoming signals properly.

Using the pair of phono inputs and the pair of phono outputs on the mixer, marked 2-track 'Tape in' and 'Tape out' (not the main mixer outputs),
I am able to get a signal coming out of the USB UA-30, but only by depressing both the '2 track' and '2 track to mix' buttons. However, what this means is that every time I record and monitor using the mixer, I'm recording a complete main mix plus the new part I'm really trying to record separately.

Where am I going wrong

well, the makers of the driver (I think they're called Propagramma or something like that) claim that the latency is as low as 7ms, but from my own experience, I need to turn of software monitoring to be happy with using it in practise.

Also, I have found from my own recordings that a setting of -70ms on any newly-recorded audio tracks makes them _really_ sound in time, but that might be overkill on the part of my ears!


(in case you were wondering, because I bought the Edirol UA-30, that was back in the days when Edirol didn't give you ASIO drivers, so I had to turn to a third party vendor for the driver)

here's where I bought the driver

Thanks for all of your help, Baghun. I'll let you know how your suggested setup works once I've bought the adapters
