if i understand what you are saying, than you only need a soundcard that has monitoring (cueing) function.
like m-audio fast track pro, or something like this
:wink:

You need a sound card that has TWO sets of stereo outputs in order to be able to cue.

I'm managing to do it with one stereo output... it just means mixing and cueing in mono.

I'm using two single to double phono adapters in my L/R soundcard outputs and plugging each set of phono leads into seperate channels in my mixer... Keep the volume up on the channel for the master out, and monitor the other channel with your headphones :)

Then when your finished you can listen back in stereo if you stick the volume of both faders on your mixer up!
