Hey guys! I wanted to ask here about connecting & monitoring when using a PCI-E soundcard. I've only ever used USB & FW, so things are a bit new to me as far routing, etc.
What I want is the ability to monitor any & all audio from the PC (browser, media players, DAWs) & my hardware gear connected to the ADA8200.
-Synths output to ADA8200 (MPC output would be 5 & 6 I forgot to put it in the picture)
-ADA8200 ADAT Out -> RME ADAT In (so that synth audio can reach the computer)
-RME Breakout Stereo XLR -> Stereo input on Mackie Big Knob (to monitor all PC audio, ie browser/DAW)
-Speakers & Headphones -> Mackie Big Knob
-ADA8200 Line Outs 1-2 -> Mackie Big Knob Stereo Input (to get audio from synths if ever the PC is turned off)
Here is a diagram I made up to show the setup, the best way I know how:
