Ableton Forum

Hi there,
I just downloaded the demo version from the official site, and I just can't seem to get any audio coming out of my system.

I have an M Audio Audiophile 2496 in a Digital Village PC...the drivers are installed properly, and I have selected them from the Preferences page, however still no audio coming out (ie to listen to the demo) whether I run Ableton on its own, or whether its in slave Rewire mode with Cubase SX.

I have also tried switching to different outputs in the M Audio Patchbay/Router program, but still no joy.

I apologise for the basic nature of this problem, but I don't know what to try next....is it potentially a driver problem with my soundcard, or have I overlooked something simple?

hi, have you checked the m-audio utility program, and made sure that your imputs and outputs are not muted

is it only live that is mute, or all of your audio programs

That was the first thing that I checked, and no, the inputs/outputs in the M Audio utility program are not muted.

Ableton Live is the only audio program that causes me such a problem.

Can you think of what else it could be?

I'd be grateful for your help as I really would like to try Live out before considering purchasing it (and moving away from Acid)...the idea of being able to use Rewire to work with Cubase is almost a reason!

No output here either...

I don't get it...

maudio drivers page has the info
