Help with direct monitering

DannyK

Hi there,
How do I set up Kx and Cubase SX 2 so I only hear the monitered signal?
I used to be able to do it (with earlier ver of Kx) but now I can't.

I am using a Soundblaster Audigy Card (Platinum I think)

I used to be able to set up Kx so that I did not hear any signal until I clicked the moniter button in SX.
Then I would hear the signal with whatever VST effect I wanted to put on it in real time.
The only limitation being the latency which I could set very low.
Now I hear two signals.
One is clean and always there and when i click moniter i hear two signals ,the clean signal and the effected signal.
All i want to hear is the effected signal when I click the moniter button!!!!
Can't get rid of the clean signal.

I am only running 2 moniter speakers (left and right) not 4 and subwoofer etc

Help!!

Sorry if this sounds confusing I am very new.
Can anyone help?

The easiest way is to route the different signals (Dry/Wet) to different output busses in cubase, so master to wave/asio 4/5 and monitor to 6/7 or 8/9. Then route those different wave devices to different physical outputs of your card (front / rear) and mix them externally over a hardware mixer together to feed your speakers. The other way is to mix the different waves together with a mix-plugin in the DSP - so you never get a feedback and you can tweak the level of each signal path.
