Thanks to all for the responses on this topic. I'm
frankly astonished at the gear I can afford for a little
home studio now - 20 years ago when I worked in college radio,
having stuff like this would have been prohibitively expensive.
Now that I can afford it, I find there's a lifetime's work
learning it all - but what fun!

It's funny you should mention this - I just worked out
a way of doing this when using the cedar closet... err..
vocal booth when the vocalist wants a different mix than
what I'm hearing.

I use the mixer in my Delta 1010 for the "engineer's"
mix and send outputs to my outboard Behringer mixer, the
output of which goes to my new Behringer 4 channel headphone
amp. (How _do_ they make this stuff so damn inexpensive??)
I then have a LOT of leeway to do a decent headphone mix.

Taking careful notes here - this is GREAT advice!

Whew, I feel better :)
