USB input routed to out 2?

[bkrodgers]

Am I missing something? I know I can route audio output from my computer to the Axe, and that it'll play through output 1 on the Axe. Whether that's playback during recording or just jamming along with a track, it's a nice feature. The only problem is that I don't usually have my monitor plugged into output 1. I use output 2 for my monitor, and output 1 is for when I want to run XLR out to FOH. In the situation where I'd want to use this USB input, I'd want it to go to the monitor. I keep my cable for the monitor audio and power connected in the rack and coil it up in the back. While it's certainly not a huge deal to unplug from output 2 and move to output 1 when I want to use this feature, it's a mild pain to have to do so.

I realize that out 2 is used by some as an FX loop, so the USB input being routed to that would cause it to feed back into the signal chain. But I don't use it that way -- I use the two outputs as equal, separate options for different purposes. I'd like the USB input -> output feature to be available on both outputs. Is there an option I'm missing to enable this, or does this need to be a feature request?

Would copy out 1 to out 2 help you possibly with this?

post this to the wish list. not possible at this time. copy out1 to out2 doesn't do it either. regardless, he'd still have it on out1, which he doesn't want.

Actually, changing it so it follows copy out 1 to out 2 might be a perfectly good alternative to adding a new option for it. I'd think if you're using things the way I do (same signal on both outputs, mainly for volume control on the front), you'd have this enabled and you'd want the USB in->out option to follow the copy to output 2 behavior as well.

Mods, feel free to move to wish list. Or for that matter, maybe it could even be considered a bug (or at least oversight) that it doesn't follow copy out 1->2 already.
