U-CONTROL UCA202
To provide a professional recording interface between mixing console and computer, you can use the UCA202 in combination with a suitable mixing console that includes subgroup outputs. This type of setup allows you to record several signals in the computer at the same time, to simultaneously play back several takes or playbacks which have been recorded, and to listen to the whole recording via loudspea- kers (or headphones).

If the musicians want to hear themselves as well as the playback or previous recording takes, use the Aux Sends in the recording channels to mix in the recording signals with the monitor mix.
