Audio Preferences - workaround?

Post by mattclarkmixer » Tue May 09, 2023 12:32 am

I'm running Live on my MacBook Air with a Dante audio interface (Behringer X32 rack).

If I open Live without my interface connected it defaults to system audio. That's not surprising to me.

My problem is when I connect up to the interface again it stays on the system audio setting in preferences. I've got my audio interface on first and then I boot up the Macbook and launch Live.

Wondering if there's a workaround or maybe a script I could run on system startup.

Maybe modifying the default preferences file?

what version of Live are you using? the current version lets you select "Use System Device" — Live then follows whatever audio device your Mac's system is using...
