windows 10, newest audicity, beringher xenyx 1202 usb = i am trying something that should be simple, i want to import an mp3 trax file, then sing and record a second track vocal to the music. i can hear the mix correctly through my headphone (attached to the 1202) but a flat blue line on the vocal track. i have overdub on when i called beringher and they referred me to audicity. are there drivers needed for win 10? thanks for you support

The setup process we published has you making a plain, ordinary, unexciting, non-overdub recording before you do anything else, and this is why. Go into Audacity and turn Overdub off. Turn everything under Recording off.

Those buttons seem fickle. One user claimed they got it to work with those settings, which are what the Behringer Forums say to use, and one never got it to work with any combination of those buttons and we never heard the solution to it. But you can experiment.

i want to be able to eq the windows 10 system sound (games, youtube, movies, etc) having asio drivers from focusrite, so far everyone recomends apo eq and others but no one work for asio, i've tried the voicemeter banana but the eq is only 3 bands and even when i change to the focusrite device when i go to use cakewalk there's a lot of clicks and pops in the sound

You can set your system to use the Focusrite with Cakewalk and the onboard sound card for Windows sounds. If your sound chip is a RealTek, it has "enhancements", one of which includes EQ with many presets.

Search Amazon for "Little Bear MC5" for example. Note that this particular mixer doesn't have a headphone amp, so if you want your headphones to recieve audio from both sources (rather than just plugging them into the Focusrite's headphone output), you'll need to step up to something like a Behringer Xenyx 502 or equivalent.

Use the Realtek's EQ for your windows sounds. It's not a good idea to have the Windows sounds and the DAW sharing the same interface, as you can run into various conflicts if you're running the DAW and Windows decides it wants to beep or whatever.

i've never had a console before, so i wonder if with one of this behringers i can do the thing of connecting both focusrite and realtek for listening and maybe at the same time using it for connecting instruments in the other inserts for recording

Probably not. Without delving into them, I'm going to hazard a guess that the Xenyx 1202 and 1002 are both 'N inputs to a stereo mix' devices. Larger mixers often have additional submix outs (eg. Mackie 1604), wherein you could have a second stereo mix (on submix 3 & 4) feeding the input of the Focusrite, and the main mix (submix 1 & 2) going to your speakers. But that's almost certainly massive overkill for what you're doing.

FWIW, I have two mixers in my setup. A small Mackie 1202 which I keep all my sound-generators connected to. The output of that mixer goes to the inputs on my Focusrite. Also provides me nice high-res level meters on the input signal. And I have a second 'output' mixer connected to my speakers/headphones. Both the Focusrite and the Windows audio are connected to that mixer, as well as the output from the 1202 and an ancient hardware reverb - this lets me monitor my vocal recordings (with reverb, that doesn't get recorded) at zero latency.
