Ableton Forum

Allright everyone I'm new to recording. I am attempting to record live dj mixes to my laptop using ableton live 6.0 and a m-audio fast track pro. I have a pioneer djm-800 with a s/pdif output. I am attempting to connect the digital output to the digital input on the m-audio interface. When doing this I get no signal that is able to be monitored by the m-audio and i see no signal in the ableton live mixer. Also I have noticed the s/pdif is not even a selectable input for ableton but you may select it as output. Is there anyone out there who can coach me through my dilemma.
Thanks everyone
William

is the SPDIF-in active in the M-Audio mixer?
also you have to activate this input channel in the menu:

"option -> preferences -> audio -> channel-config -> input-config"
