In the example, each vocalist is receiving his/her own monitor mix because they each have their
“own” Scarlett 18i8 headphone output. Focusrite Control lets you define up to four separate stereo
mixes (or eight mono) and these mixes may include previously recorded DAW tracks as well the
current input signals. Here, just two stereo mixes are being used.

When using Direct Monitoring, ensure that your DAW software is not set to route any inputs (what you
are currently recording) to any outputs. If it is, the musicians will hear themselves “twice”, with one
signal audibly delayed as an echo.
