FX Question

I have a Behringer Xenyx 1204FX mixer, sending it's mains into my computer. I can turn the mixers effects on and play, and the FX is sent to the computer, and is heard in the playback. But I can't figure out how to get the FX signal into the headphones so I can hear what is being sent to the computer. All I get in the headphones is the dry signal. Do I need to use a patch cord to route the FX signal from one place on the mixer to another? I'm not very experienced at all this and any insight would be helpful. Thanks

A little more information might help us sort this out for you.

Are you using recording software?
Are you using the heaphone jack on your computer or your mixer?

The headphone output on your mixer uses the Control Room signal so you'll need to check that the signal routing for the effects are setup to send the processed signal to the Control Room. This will probably be a simple push button near the Control Room level faders.

I've been using Audacity for quite a while, but I'm trying to learn how to use Cake Walk - Guitar Tracks as the Audacity is quirkie and dies on me plus I get issues with latency with it and not the guitar Tracks. And I have the headphones into the mixer, not the computer.

I don't have the Control Room outs hooked up. I don't own a pair of good speakers. Maybe that needs to be my next investment and not another guitar.:lol: Also, "Control Room level faders"? Oh, I just looked, I have a single level knob that says PHONES/CTRL R. That's what I use to control the volume to the headphones. I'll keep looking, studying, thinking and trying, thanks.
