Ableton Forum

My audio interface has direct monitoring and computer choices. There is no sound
when I choose computer. I can see that both audio and midi is going into my DAW
but I cannot hear anything. I have connected headphones to audio interface and
to computer but no sound.

No mention of your audio interface model or pc specs or anything that could be useful to help, therefore not much to help with.

does the Master track in Live show activity?

spend some time with the audio settings and the help guide in the lower left corner of Live. when in doubt, reboot after you make a change. this part of DAW setup can be a pain but once your learn your system and it makes sense it's not much of an issue. you need to learn your computer's audio routing better, it takes time.

I have tried to get this working for about five weeks now, there's no joy left, I think this was a mistake, an expensive one. My interface is audiofuse with hardware synth and midi keyboard

:have you set the correct ins and outs within Abletons Audio settings inc selecting the interface you have.

yes

keyboard midi to synth midi in, synth midi out to interface

synth usb to sinterface

keyboard usb to interface

interface usb to computer

in/out settings, audio interface

Have you turned the inputs and outputs on thou?

Everything routed correctly within Audiofuse software?

come again

mac osx catallina

1. synth needs midi in from keyboard out to respond keyboard activity
2. synth midi out to interface midi in
3. synth audio (L/R) out to interface line in (L/R)
4. synt USB out to interface USB in
5. keyboard USB out to interface USB in
6. Interface USB to computer

Settings DAW
audio in / out, interface

Try bypassing the interface USB and going directly into the Mac. Also, open the Audio/MIDI utility and check to see if all your devices are showing up and enabled. Core audio can sometimes get confused about USB stuff.

I had a similar problem with my Focusrite audio interface (or so I thought) ... no audio no matter what i did .... I tried everything including a complete re-install of Live and the Focusrite drivers... hours and hours of fiddling around and no joy....

I finally solved the problem by switching on my monitors.

True story.

Sorry to hear you're having so many problems.... this forum has a lot of good ideas and advice... hang in there!

my interface shows up in midi settings but no signal at all from the interface.

i have connected my audio out from interface (speaker A/'b) to my sterio (amplifier)
is that an issue?

which is correct output for stereo amplifier speakers? They works when
direct monitoring, but I dont know if they causes other trouble
