SOS with cueing!!!! please?

Post by buchnaner » Wed Jan 04, 2006 4:42 am

Here are my specs:

PowerBook G4
Live 4.0
Echo Indigo DJ
Novation X-Station

I, for the life of me, cannot figure out why in the bloody fuck I cannot cue with my equiptment. SO FRUSTRATING.

In Live I have my Master Out set to 1/2. Physically, I have a cord going from my 1/2 on my Indigo to my X-Station, which goes to my speakers.

In Live I have my Cue Out set to 3/4. Physically, I have my headphones plugged into 3/4 on my Indigo.

In Live I have the Master Track set to Cue.

I have two clips, one in Track 1 (crossfade assign A, audio to Master) and another in Track 2 (crossfade assign B, audio to Master).

When I launch the first clip, I slide the crossfade all the way to the left. Fine. I hear the track. Time passes and I want to cue the second track. So I click on the "headphone" cue button in the second track. Now I hear the track in my headphones, BUT I ALSO HEAR IT THROUGH MY MAIN SPEAKERS, even though there is no signal level appearing on the master volume. WTF. And when I slide the crossfader over to the right, the master volume gets louder and a signal level appears, as it should because I am fading the signal to the other track.

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills!!!! Please, can anyone help me with this, please please PLEASE? this shouldn't be this hard.... :( thanks
