Mute recording track

[Nutsboat]

Is there any way to mute the track being recorded so it does not have any audible output from the monitors? Latency work around I think.  The delay from playing the instrument to the sound out of the speaker makes recording new tracks difficult.  If I could mute the track being recorded it would help.

MixPad currently features support for playback to ASIO, DirectSound and MME devices and recording from ASIO and MME devices.
NCH recommends ASIO for both playback and recording. ASIO will provide the best performance and the lowest possible latency and offer the greatest accuracy when synchronizing recordings. ASIO will also allow you to play and record from multiple channels of the same device. If you don't have an ASIO capable sound card then you should choose DirectSound as your playback option and MME as your recording option.
Another option is to install the driver from ASIO4ALL which provides a layer over the regular soundcard, allowing it to be used as an ASIO device by software such as MixPad. You can download it for free from http://www.asio4all.com/
