Hello,
I need to have in my in-ear monitors the sound of my Kronos along with the click of the metronome sent by the drummer.
Is it possible to achieve this using audio inputs and excluding the external signal from the main outputs?

The headphones are directly tied to the L/R outputs.

I used a small 4 channel mixer to accomplish this.

I thought so. Someone told me to try to route Kronos internal sounds into additional outputs to do the trick of listening to audio inputs through headphones.

By the way which small mixer did you buy to accomplish this?

One of those Behringer 4 channel models. My reason was different from yours. I wanted to listen to my keyboard in stereo and still needed to hear the sound from the monitor mix. Now, we run the keyboards in stereo in the monitor mix so no longer needed.

My hookup was a stereo cable from the HP jack to the mixer. Another stereo cable from the monitor mix to the mixer. (all 4 channels)

The Main L/R to the house.

Your previous needs didn't differ so much from mine Smile

I want to be able to listen from my headphones to the sound of my Kronos along with the metronome (sent to me by the drummer) and, live on stage, a monitor mix.
My question was a starting point to learn if I could make it from Kronos routing capabilities, before considering a submixer to buy.

In fact the next step would be looking for a cheap submixer within the 100€ and I'm wondering if the difference in quality between a cheap Behringer (Q502 USB) and a Mackie (402 VLZ4)/Yamaha (MG06)/Allen&heath (ZED6) is audible and justified.
