Thanks Mike I figured it was output patching after a late night. To get the playback working I had made a couple of rookie mistakes – first I had one input coming into one of the stereo inputs – plugged that into 15/16 and solved that. Second you have to route the playback from the USB channel by channel to hear the recording – took me too long to figure out how to do this: from the track first screen hit “function” to access the channel routing ! Thanks for your input – as always 90% is intuitive and the last 10% takes time and trial and error and lots of reading the manual and googling!
