Stereo mode is on.
In
Stereo mode (Stereo LED is on), the Instrument and Mic/Line 1 input
signals are sent to the Left Main Out, while the Mic/Line 2 input signal is
sent to the Right Main Out.
In
Mono mode (Stereo LED is off), each pair of input signals is mixed
together and sent to the Left and Right Main Outs as a mono signal. One
pair includes Instrument or Mic/Line 1 and Mic Line 2.
This does not affect the signal that is sent to the computer.

Phantom power can be turned on for the combi-jack input pair via the 48V
buttons on the back panel. Dynamic microphones do not require phantom
power to operate, but are not harmed by it. Most condenser microphones
do require phantom power to operate. If you are unsure about the phantom
power requirements for your microphone, consult your microphone’s docu-
mentation or contact the manufacturer.

The I
•
ONIX U22 unit gives you the ability to hear your analog input sig-
nals directly and immediately while recording without having to adjust levels
in software and before the delay caused by digital converters and computer
recording latency. This zero-latency analog monitoring is controlled by the
Monitor Mix knob, which you can use to adjust the blend between the
live analog inputs (called “Direct”) and any sounds coming back from the
computer via USB (“Playback”). To adjust the playback mix coming back
from the computer (previous tracks, effect returns etc.), use the faders on
the Mixer screen of the software. To hear only the live source input signals
plugged into the U22, turn the Mix knob fully left to Direct. To hear only
the mix from the computer, turn the Mix knob fully right to Playback. The
output from the Monitor Mix control is routed to the Line and Headphone
outputs.
