Direct output and Monitor output diferences

I have a Kemper Powerhead. For both home studio recording and live perfomances I use Direct Out and Monitor Out for my 2 monitors. I use the same outputs for my small Soundcraft Notepad -12 fx for recording in my Adobe Audition DAW. The 2 outputs go to the first 2 (guitar signed) inputs on the Notepad mixer.

I noticed that the incoming signal from the Direct Output, while recording, differs substantially from the Monitor Output. The Direct Output signal is hardly visible or stays blank. I've tried several cables and switched cables between both Direct Output and Monitor Output and tried also inputs 1 and 2 on the Notepad. Every time it's the Direct Outpunt that causes the problem while the Monitor Output shows the full signal..

Am I'm doing something here? Or am I missing something?

Hi Burkhard, It took me a while to figure it out, bur now I got it:

- Monitor Output below set to to Master stereo

- Activate Monitor Stereo on top

--This makes Diret Output used for Monitor Stereo

And now both volumes l+r are equal.

Thank you for putting me on the right track.
