Hey Pete, Thanks for these instructions -- very helpful! On a slightly tangential note... Do you happen to know why inputs 1 and 2 (the combo inputs on the front panel) produce a mono signal for me, i.e. when I plug in a stereo cable and in the "0-latency" mode? Should I be panning them left and right from inside the Control Panel?
