Topic: use another output for second headphones

I have been trying to use total mix to route the main out to both 7/8 and one of the line out but I am not succeding.
how do I do that? I need to use a second headphone.

thanks

I am surprised that nobody has ever had a need to connect a second headphone to the fireface. i am sure that there is a way. hopefully someone will chip in.

Not sure how you think this might work. No other analog outputs are stereo. Look for a separate headphone amplifier that can connect to the line outs of the Fireface.

well i am not too concerned about the stereo out. it doesn't work because the output signal it's too low, does it?
on a second note i thought with total mix you could route two channels into a single output one.

Re: use another output for second headphones

...to get a mono (single channel) signal...like Jeff said (andy everybody else has understood) the TRS jacks on the back can not be used as stereo output to directly connect a (stereo) headphone. You need a cable adapter at least.
