Monitoring in Logic through Focusrite Pro 26io

When I use the i/o utilities plug in to use outboard effects, even if I have all the faders down I can still hear the audio. The same thing happens when I record guitar with plug in amp modeling. I can hear the processed signal but also get the DI'd clean guitar just as much.

There is a Hardware Monitoring option in the drop down menu that stops the bleed but it removes ALL of the audio. Not just the problem signal.

I've read the manual of the Pro 26 and fiddled with Logic for hours and it's burning my head out!

Also, is it normal not to be able to solo tracks when mixing through the i/o utilities plug in?

I'm on Logic 8 and using the Focusrite 26 IO (which is doing my head in right now!) Grrrrrrr

Then you've either got direct monitoring on in your interface, or check your routing in Logic's mixer.

Which drop down menu? If you mean in your audio interface control panel, then yes, direct monitoring should be off.
In addition, you don't talk about how you have things routed in Logic, but you should make sure Software Monitoring is turned on in Logic. Then, to hear for example your processed guitar, either record-enable your guitar track (set to the input your guitar is plugged into) or hit the channel monitor button.

You have to think about which channels you're soloing. If you are soloing channels, you are effectively turning some of them on and others off. Again, you are not specific as to what you're routing - you may want to keep the I/O aux channel in solo-safe mode.
