Hello mes amis,

I have an Audiobox USB and HP 4.
My headphones play the L channel in my R ear and vice versa. This is distracting.
Is there some way to reverse the channels?
I would just turn my headphones around, but the earpieces are tilted and won't fit my head turned around.

Thanks.
Richard

Strange that this is happening, but thankfully, the fix is very simple. I imagine that you have 2 1/4" cables connecting the AudioBox USB to the HP4 (one going from Main Out L on the AudioBox into Input L on the HP4; one going from Main Out R on the AudioBox into Input R on the HP4.) Simply swap the cables on your HP4 - plug Main Out L from the AudioBox into Input R and vice versa. That should reverse the channels in your headphones.

or insert MixTool plugin on your Cue output. It has a channel swap button.
