Hello!
I want to use an external mixer as monitor mixer. The problem is that I don't get any signal from the analog input routed to the analog output connected to the external mixer. I have choosen "Analog in 1" routed to "Line output 3" but I still don't get any signal to the mixer. I can see/hear the signal in my DAW (Cubase 7.5). I have also shift-clicked the output switch in the monitor preset section (greyed out). Still no sound from the routed outputs.

IIt is possible.
You do have several options available: daw, stand-alone.
In stand alone you can use the soft mixer to make one or multiple mixes and assign those to your ports.
But give me a moment to test something

Edit:
Well your doing it right
If you send your analog 1 ( mic ) to the line 3 output you will be able to hear the signal of the microphone.
You will get a one on one signal from input to output and will have volume changes by the use of the main volume button.
I send you an image so you can see if you missed something
Don't mind the upper faders they are doing nothing
But can you tell me which audio device you got from focusrite because i did this on a scarlett 18i20 and it works just fine.
Oh and can you tell me on which operating system cubase is running ?
I forgot to mention that my monitor output 1 and 2 are set to DAW 1 and DAW 2 so you can send these to the monitor mixer aswel to listen what is going on in your DAW on a separate track or stereo return. ( for headphone monitoring perhaps )
Please don't mind the comments about the faders ...... I uploaded another image
