Actually, I want to feed the recorder in stereo and the monitor in MONO. There is no way that I know of to do it RIGHT without the use of active components. A summing circuit made entirely out of resistors would either load down the audio outputs of the Amiga, or drop the level of the signal going to the monitor too much. It would probably reduce the seperation between the two stereo channels as well. If my opamp circuit works (and I'm sure it will) I'll send you a copy of the circuit if you want it. Another alternative would be to make up a circuit using transistors, which would require only a single ended power supply. (Opamps require + and – voltage.) However, I have the opamps, and usually have better luck with them! I've had a few days to fool around with Synthia. I'm not sure it will produce the type of sound effects I want, but it is very sophisticated, and will take me some time to fully explore. The manual could stand some improvement; it is full of typos, and the way the material is presented forces you to flip back and forth through different sections. -+WMS+
