Default Re: soloing a track in headphone mix?

Depends on the interface(hardware and software, if applicable). This is where experience and ingenuity will help you decide how to route audio to accomplish this. For instance, in my setup(DIGI003) I feed the main send to the headphone amp(so everyone gets the main mix) AND I can add(with AUX sends) "more me"(or more whatever) to each of the 4 headphone mixes. My dilemma was, how can I(the engineer) solo anything without interrupting the main mix(that is the basis for all the headphone mixes)? My solution was to add a send to every track(all at -0, all in Pre-fade, and all disabled and built into my session template). If I want to solo anything, I switch my monitor controller(Presonus Central Station) to a different input(what those sends feed) and enable the send(Ctrl-click). So, with a Ctrl-click, instead of a mouse click only, I can solo for me, without affecting the main mix feeding the phones. Figure out what works with your equipment
