Default How to monitor playback while recording?

I am wondering how to monitor recorded tracks while recording another. Say, I have 2 tracks recorded using VSTi's and want to record another VSTi while playing back the previous two tracks.

I have a standard Creative sound card, VSTi's are being played via USB controller, and have L/R monitor speakers.

Is there a way to set Reaper up to monitor with my present setup? If not, what additional equipment/sound card do I need?

Thanks!

You can do this all within Reaper. It is so easy that I am afraid I do not fully understand the question. Just hit Record and the other tracks will play back just as if you hit play.

Thanks. Yes, I was doing something really silly before. Reaper does a great job of monitoring while recording.
