Apple Logic Pro /LogicExpress Discussion

Mike,

Your email is a bit confusing.   If I read you correctly, the FA-101  
(which I know little about) can't do what you want, which is to  
control each input independent of the others.  For that, you would  
need something like the FP10 or one of the firewire mixers by Alesis  
or Behringer.  With the FA101 you have 2 choices - 1) use a mixer  
with direct outs as a front end monitoring unit, or 2) monitor  
through logic.   I've never been able to tolerate software  
monitoring, but many people feel they can get latencies low enough,  
and your setup should be more than capable of doing that.  So mess  
around with the settings to see if you can get it low enough to be  
usable.

I'm confused by that fact that you have this problem only when  
recording and monitoring at the same time.  Recording into Logic  
shouldn't change what I am reading your problem to be.  Could you  
clarify that?

Best of luck,

Gregory
