I have never owned an external mixer before so bear with me!
I have my Xone:22 set to work along with my Kontrol X1 to work with traktor.
I have Traktor set to mix externally with the Xone 22 through the use of an Audio 2.
Now, I plugged in my headphones, and since I do not have XLR I wanted to test out the Xone 22 so I set the CUE/MASTER to master so I could hear whats going on with the master through my headphones.
I plugged the Audio 2 into the back of the mixer into the "Line" slots, left and right respectively.
When I did this, I noticed that everything worked just fine, but the Channel Meters were not lighting up at all. They only lit to a static level of +3 db when I held the CUE/MASTER button halfway between the two option.
I decided to experiment, and I switched the RCA's into "Phono", left and right respectively. I noticed immediately that the Channel meters began to light up like they should. But out the headphones (master output) was EXTREME DISTORTION, especially on the low end. Sounds like a youtube video when someone has record a live show through a crumby phone mic.
What on earth is going on? I have a show tonight in about 3 and a half hours and would really love to get this sorted.
Thanks!!
