Thanks for the insight Guitarhacker, you have some point here.

The FG connects to the pc via usb. It is an Asio driver, and gives a "Fantom Input" and a "Fantom Out" port at disposal.

On the FG side, I only set as input "usb audio", and arm the "mix" key.

If I don't arm the "mix" key, nothing will be 'heard' on the FG, which also means, I can't hear any sound, since both DAWs (RB and Magix Samplitude) don't allow me to use different cards for input and output - as a 'simple' software like Audacity instead does. If I select Fantom G then I can only use fantom input for input and fantom output for output. If I select the internal audio card, I can use the internal pc audio card and because of this I can't hear any sound from the Fantom, since it is connected via usb.

I don't think it would be possible to set the FG in order to keep the incoming DAW audio signal from being mixed in. But I will further investigate in that direction.

With Reaper it works because I can use the FG Input for the input, and the local pc audio card for the output, hence no sound will be sent to the FG. The same applies to Audacity.

The Midi side works as expected with no hassle.

I'll definately give a try to Sonar, I think the X version has everything I need, is a bit pricey but hey, so are also the others.

Since you are a Sonar user, do you know if from within the software you can select the external audio card as input, and the internal pc audio card (if any) as output ?

Cheers,
Sergio.
