Brian, My setup is as follows: Plugged into my output jack of my Sound Blaster, 
I have a stereo Y jack that is 3 or 4 inches long, one male plug and two 
females. I have my desktop speakers plugged into one and in the other I have 
another stereo Y which is a patch cord approximately six feet in length, 
because it needs to be able to reach my Behriger 12 channel  mixer which is of 
course routed to my Delta 1010. This patch cord has a half-inch male plug just 
like the other except at the top of this Y, you have an RCA plug on each, which 
is plugged into the tape monitor of my mixer. Below my control room volume 
knob, I have a button that allows me to patch JAWS through to be heard along 
with Sonar when pressed and muted from being heard through the mixer when 
depressed, but I can still hear JAWS through my desktop speakers because they 
have their own separate line out from my Sound Blaster card. You can pickup 
these items at any Radio Shack electronics store. Hope you can make some sense 
or use of this bit of info. Robert.

  Mike,
  That makes sense I think, but for my jaws soundcard, it is built in to my 
computer daw...

    Hello my name is Mike C from Montreal,
    What I do is I have my V-studio 100 for Sonar solly, and line in my sound 
blaster card in to one of the inputs of the V-studio.
    This way you could have Jaws on the same headphone.  I then use my mackie 
1620 onix which has the output of the V-studio, and use a pre amp headphone 
system  in one of the monitoring busses of the mackie board.
    This way my clients are only hearing the music, and not Jaws, while I hear 
Jaws through the head phone of the V-studio, as the V-studio has a separate 
headphone jack.

    Sounds a little complicated, but this system insures the best set up for my 
needs.

    Hello Mike!
    I have been wondering how to best achieve having jaws and my client going 
through the same headphones so I don't have to wear two pairs of headphones.  
How do you do this?  For my audio interface, I am using the mackie Onyx 1220I 
mixer which is a mixer and an audio interface all in one, but how would this be 
done or how do you achieve this?  Thanks so much mike!
    Brian

      Brandon,

      As you've probably have read from the replies to your inquiry, it's 
definitely not recommended. I use a small line mixer that I got for around 60 
bucks, and everything works great. The mixer has a headphone jack on it, and 
I've got plenty of outputs that I can feed everything to my amp.

      Hope this helps.



      Mike

        Hello,
        If I switched jaws' output to my external sound-card along with Sonar, 
would I run into any problems?
        Right now I'm wearing two sets of headphones and it's not very 
comfortable, so I'd like to just use one.
        Thanks,

        Brandon Keith
