Let's say I have the Motif plugged into channels 5 and 6 of the mixer. Wouldn't 
I then turn up sends 1 and 2 on both channels 5 and 6?

  OK, aren't you using aux sends to feed your audio interface?  If you are, you 
should only have one send turned up on each of the two inputs that you have 
your keyboard connected to.  So for example, for the left side of your 
keyboard, you would only turn up send 1 and for the right, you would only turn 
up send 2.

    I have the xs, and the strings are not sounding in audio as they do in midi.

      If you are recording your midi keyboard and have everything set right, it 
should sound identical as it does originally.  If you are recording a fat 
string patch, you should hear the stereo imaging of the sample.  You have the 
motif es, don't you?  most of those sounds have good stereo imaging.  Of 
course, bass or some of the vintage rhodes sounds will be mono.

        Setting it to stereo. I just learned today though from someone on 
midimag that it could still sound mono even if you record stereo until you 
start panning stuff.

          When you record you rmidi track, are you setting the input of the 
audio track to a stereo source, or are you recording it to two separate mono 
tracks?

              What do you have the outputs of the fa66 connected to?  If they 
are connected to a pair of inputs on your mixer, do you have the inputs hard 
panned to opposite sides?

                Hello,

                I'm recording instrument tracks in Sonar with the input of the 
track being stereo. I'm using the edirol fa66 as my soundcard. I know all my 
connections are correct, and all my settings in sonar for playback and 
recording are set to the edirol. For some reason though, the tracks still sound 
mono, (with the instruments sounding in the middle rather than surrounding.) I 
hear this through mixing headphones. Any suggestions?

                Thanks.
