is there only 1 stereo output in Live

Post by jerom » Fri Jul 04, 2003 5:09 pm

Hi,
I'm running Ableton live shortly for live-performances. Before we worked with seperate drum-machines and sequencers. Because we are working with live-drums on stage I need to split up the signal into "Beats" and "Sequences" (for monitoring and the front of house mix, etc...) I can't find the way to do it...is it possible in Live anyway??

You needs a sound card/interface with more than one output, naturally. In OSX you'll want to check the Audio MIDI utility (Applications -> Utilities) to make sure they're all enabled. Then check Live's preferences. Then(!) just use the drop down menu on each track to select an output.

still some audiotrouble with EMI 2/6 and Live

Post by jerom » Thu Jul 10, 2003 9:57 am

...seemed everything was working out just fine, but there 's still a problem. everytime I physically take the usb connector from the EMI 2/6 away from the powerbook (when it's shut off, for transport) next time i start up ableton the audio is disabled and the routing is gone...any ideas?? (logic doesn't have that problem, it's just ableton)

tx!

yes, plugged in at startup..the core-audio somehow resets to internal soundcard again, and I have to redo the setting again..I'll have to check it before every concert i'm afraid..

Tis very weird indeed. I'm using a 2/6 as well, on OSX, and this doesn't happen to me. 'fraid I can't really help you any further. You have the latest drivers?
