Make sure “click” is activated for your VST Connections output.

Probably not. Maybe by using ASIO4ALL? ---

> [@Flanx](#): > > Is there any way I can have my input as lexicon but my output as my laptop speakers? Flanx: Good to see your recording all right now. IMO - use external speakers instead of your Laptops speakers like the diagram shows on P.16 of your Lexicon alpha Manual. 😉 IMO – Your Lexicon Alpha should be your Dedicated sound card 😉 Jack 😃😃 ---
