How do I get mono sound? I have ONE cube, a HOSA Audio Signal Selector, and 1/4" cable/splitter, but it sounds like half of a stereo image, not mono with some instruments almost completely dropped out. Can anyone recommend a better setup?

Hi Timothy. Well...if you're using one of these as a mixing studio monitor one thing you could try is: in your DAW, on your master channel, insert a simple plug-in that has a "mono"-izing switch. In Logic Pro 9 the gain plugin has a mono button. In FL studio you could use stereo shaper OR turn the "stereo spread" knob anti-clock-wise to mono the signal. I'm sure there are other ways of doing that in other DAWs. OR, you could buy a monitor controller that has a Dedicated "mono" button. OR you could what I do: I have a mackie mixer that all my inputs AND outputs from my computer are routed to. So in my mixing board, the outputs of my computer run into channels x and y. on both of those i set my AUX 4 out (which is wired as mono on my board) to Unity gain. Then i connected my C50A to the AUX 4 out. Now, any time i need to check my mix in mono, i just turn down my main control room monitors, and turn up my AUX4 send master knob, and boom - i hear my mix in mono. On my board there is also a "Mono Mix" output, but it's volume control is at the back of the mixer, so the AUX knob is easier for me to grab. So there is both a software and one type of hardware solution. I Hope that info is helpful. Good luck!

Jeffrey - I don't have that; where can I get it? I did a search on monoprice, but nothing relevant showed up. SocialLogic - I dunno what it's called but it's definitely not the coaxial input port (coaxial is the same used for subwoofer, I thought - and this receiver has two inputs, since it is 7.2)I've had it for about 10 days, and I'm still tweaking around with the settings. What audio mode do you guys generally use when playing Blu Ray? :)

I am wondering did this still happen when listening in "Mono" mode not "Stereo?"

You could if you had two XLRs and two mics for left and right. Then you would have both audio channels. Otherwise you have just the one channel and one mic. I prefer just the mono while shooting and recording. Then I balance it out in post, and in stereo.

So, I deleted my earlier post. Getting 2 audio sources to play simultaneously is actually pretty easy. The mixamp has a line in for spdif (optical) and your typical aux 3.5mm jack. I hooked my computer via spdif and my TV via aux. You'll get both AND be able to toggle the balance with the right earcup game/VoIP switch. (I initially thought it didn't work, as I was 100% to my computer source, hence my deleted answer. Don't make my mistake). I would recommend the spdif from your console and aux from your computer, you'll get better in game sound. The balance feature is really nice, and it is tailored to your exact needs.

No not at all. It's possible that you have the mono setting set louder then the left. If it's not that then it's possibly a defect

I'm not sure about that. My Experience has been with vocals only. I record to a Mac book using audacity and so far I have not encountered any issues but everything I do is in mono both channels on purpose

It is mono, not stereo. I chose this model after having a one-sided version for many years because it blocks ambient noise as well as delivers sound to both ears.

Sorry I never responded... You can do 4 mono or 2 stereo. A lot of this varies on your software. I didn't like the ProTools Express software and grabbed Music Creator 6 Touch and that only allows 2 inputs max (doesn't matter what hardware you have) so I upgraded to Sonar X3 and yes I can do 4 tracks with that.

Even if you split a mono signal into two channels,it still won't be stereo,it will just be two mono channels,this mixer would require 2 discrete stereo channels in,to create two channels out.

I use mono since it is just one speaker. You can use it in stereo. There are three inputs, one can be 1/4 guitar cable or a mic cable. If I connect to our PA system I run one to the Behringer and one to our PA. This is a pretty good little amp.

Use Stereo mode or Mono. - outputs identical sound through all speakers. See page 28-29 of user guide for more sound settings.

I've just bought two based on the existing answers to this question (previous answers said that YES, the input is stereo). Now I find out that the input is only recognized as mono on both ubuntu and my other macbook. The box says "iCB758 v1.2" so maybe it was stereo with v1.0 or v1.1. In any case I'm really disappointed, if someone from iLuv could respond that would be great.

I pull mine through a mixer, into my interface and into my DAW. The only thing is is that you need to do this with mono cables otherwise your output will be terrible. I love how the volcas sound, so any effort you put into this will be well worth it. PS; I had low output until I switched to mono cables.

To the best of my knowledge, it doesn't matter. If the source is stereo, you will listen to that, and vice versa for mono...

Nope all inputs are mono on this, but Pyle does sell some that are stero I will try to find the link I have it some where. My mono (this one) and the one that does stero sound (my other Pyle amp) both work great like you could never believe. Sorry that it doesn't have stero hope this helped, Awesome

I capture both channels from the ART USB Dual pre into my DAW, which is Sony Sound Forge Audio Studio. I then have the option of mixing the channels to any degree that I want in the software, and then saving the final mix as a stereo sound or 2-channel mono.Of course, you also have the option of using just one mic. You will get a single channel output, which you can duplicate into your second channel (in your DAW software) and save the final mix as 2-channel mono.Hope this helps.
