Re: click track to headphones only

2002-01-31 by okant

Wow! It's been a week since I promised this; I am ashamed (had a busy 
week).

Anyway, here is how it's done with DTXV2:
1) In [UTILITY][SEQ] set click to MainL+R (default)
2) In same menus set MaToAux On (this send every sound except click 
to aux out).
3) Connect DTXV2 Aux out to your amp.

Your headphones will play everything plus click, your amp (using aux 
out) will play everything minus click.

It seems that for you DTXPress owners this probably will not work, 
because it only has one output.

One not particularly desirable option would be: Check if you can 
direct click to MainL (left) or MainR (right). Then setup your unit 
to send every sound to other channel and only connect you amp using 
that channel. You'll lose stereo this way.
