sorry if this seesm stupid, but anyway i am! :p
Is there a word for lsitening to your mix through your headphones, before being played out on the speakers? just curious about thato ne.
Also, is it important for a mixer to be able to do this? does it make it alot easier? |

offcoz you can, just turn up your headphone volume and have both channel fader down. And yeah it is pretty important that the mixer can do this.
And... this is a pretty dumb question actually... ;) |

Your mixer doesn't have cueing? Find the person who sold you that thing and slap 'em.

What kind of mixer are you using? |

| i think maybe what he meant is listening to both tracks at once, ie "the mix" in the headphones, something some mixers cannot do. |

| Listening to both tracks at the same time in the headphones is definitely not essential. Some people like it but if your mixer doesn't have that feature its not a huge problem. I never listen to both tracks in the headphones at the same time that makes it a lot tougher for me to tell which way I need to pitch bend. |
