Hi to all forum mates,

My question is I do hear the music run in Sony Vegas 5 DAW via the Headphone but I do not hear my voice or vocals at at the same time in the headphones while the MIC is
also attached in the audio interface? For perfect recordings one must hear the both with the headphones.

Please assist by a perfect answer.

Love to all forum mates and blessings!

Hi Hani, where are you ? I'm in New Zealand.

Click the channel header where you choose the input you wish to assign to the track and select "Input Monitoring" - if that was a choice way back then in V5 ! You would need to use an ASIO driver for your audio interface .

Alternatively does your audio interface have direct a monitoring function built in ?

Hi Geoff,

Thank you so much for your reply to my thread posting.Yes the input Monitoring was a perfect advice and it worked.

One problems arises and need a cure of that which is as follow:-

I do hear my voice and the music track via headphones both at the same time when the gain knob
iof the interface is set to the highest level at the end and thus while recording it all distorted and jumbled and when the gain is lower down than the recording goes perfectly but I do not again hear my voice or vocals but yes the music track only.

How to solve this problem.

Again I thank you.

Blessings!

Hani

You're probably not getting enough gain into the headphones whilst in the "input monitoring" mode, but the recording is at a proper level, and distortion free. I've had this same issue *(along with a delay in the record track), but you'll need to use an audio interface that has a separate gain control for headphones. This has been, in my experience, the only way to get enough gain of the 'live' microphone into the headphones whilst recording.

I realize this is an old thread -- but in neither my V17 or V14 do I have "input monitoring" appearing on my audio track options. I'm a seasoned Vegas user and have seen it in the past, but they aren't appearing now?? Any ideas?

"Options> Preferences> Audio Device". Set to ASIO.

Check the settings in your audio interface/soundcard as well.
