It .is .possible .that .the .performer .may .prefer .to .hear .a .monitor .mix .of .voice .and .instruments .adjusted .
to .their .particular .taste. .Focusrite .Control .lets .you .define .a .custom .monitor .mix .for .the .artist .and .
this .mix .may .include .the .current .input .signals .as .well .as .previously .recorded .DAW .tracks. .You .can .
easily .route .a .musician’s .stereo .monitor .mix .to .Outputs .3 .and .4, .and .it .will .then .be .available .at .the . .
Clarett .2Pre’s .headphone .socket. .If .you .need .to .send .the .monitor .mix .to .more .than .one .musician, .you .
can .use .the .rear .panel .line .outputs .to .send .the .mix .to .a .headphone .amplifier.
When .sourcing .monitor .mixes .from .input .signals .in .this .way, .ensure .that .the .DAW .channels .you .are .
recording .are .muted, .otherwise .the .musicians .will .hear .themselves .“twice”, .with .one .signal .audibly .
delayed .as .an .echo.
Please .refer .to .the .Focusrite .Control .User .Guide .for .more .details .on .setting .up .monitor .mixes.
A note about latency
You .will .probably .have .heard .the .term .“latency” .used .in .connection .with .digital .audio .systems. .In .the .
case .of .the .simple .DAW .recording .application .described .above, .latency .is .the .time .it .takes .for .your .
input .signals .to .pass .through .your .computer .and .audio .software, .and .back .to .you. .Latency .is .rapidly .
becoming . a . problem . of . the . past; . the . Thunderbolt™ . interface . used . by . your . Clarett . 2Pre . is . much .
faster .than .the .USB .or .FireWire .interfaces .you .may .have .used .previously. .As .a .result, .you .will .nearly .
always .be .able .to .monitor .your .recordings .through .your .DAW .without .noticing .latency.
There .is .a .possible .exception .to .this: .when .you .need .to .set .the .recording .buffer .size .to .a .high .value .
– .this .may .be .necessary .when .you .are .recording .overdubs .on .a .particularly .large .project, .with .many .
DAW .channels, .including .software .instruments .and .FX .plug-ins. .To .overcome .this, .Focusrite .Control .
gives .you .the .option .of .sourcing .your .monitor .feed .directly .from .the .Clarett .2Pre’s .inputs
