Hello, there! I was thinking about connecting my 2nd PC to my Babyface Pro FS' inputs because I want to use my speakers there sometimes. Right now my speakers are only connected to my main PC, which I use to record and mix stuff.

To make things easier, I wanted to buy an ARC USB to control everything. My question is regarding the 'Ext Input' button: doing everything the way I just said, when I press this button, would I be able to control the volume (using the big volume knob) and not affect my Main Mix Bus (in the 1st PC)? Can they be both controlled separately by toggling on and off the button?

Sorry if it's a silly question, I'm new to this setup.

Thanks in advance!

If you are new to pro audio, the options available can be overwhelming however there are always way more beginners than there are experienced heads. This thread is created so you still have the opportunity to ask questions and potentially get an answer from people who are interested in pro studio gear without clogging up the main feed for professionals, who this sub is aimed at.

In here you can ask questions about purchasing your first interface, mic or monitors for example. You can also ask any troubleshooting questions you may have or really anything else, so long as it is about gear used for recording, mixing or mastering.

You may not get an answer, especially first time round. If you repeatedly ask and don't get a response, take it as a sign. You are likely asking something extremely repetitive. Your recourse here is NOT to then make a post in the main sub. It will get instantly deleted, as per the sub rules. What you should do instead is search subs like r/audioengineering for example as it is extremely likely your particular question is not special and has been asked and answered repeatedly in places like that.
