But I realized the order in which you select the devices matters. I have an audio mixer connected to my computer and was also selecting the Mac speakers in the multi output device but still not getting any audio at all. I wasn't getting any audio at all after creating the multi-output device using Blackhole and my main speakers. There are plenty more Ableton Live tutorials where this one came from.I wanted to post this because I was having the same problems. You need to change it back manually in the Preferences.Īnything to ask, add or remark? Just leave me a comment. If your audio interface is off, Live will default to No Device as Audio Input Device and Built-In Output as Output Device. If you’re using an audio interface, don’t forget to plug in headphones or connect it to speakers. This should always be a power of 2 (64, 128, 256, 512, 1024 and so on) to avoid issues with the driver of the interface. Or you can try to find a setting that gives you low latency without audio drop outs. A Buffer Size of 512 seems to work for most.You can set the Bit Depth in Preferences > Record/Warp/Launch. It’s not saved with the Live Set, but is set universally so beware if you tend to switch, e.g. (Note: Since Live 10 it’s possible to label them for convenience.) You can activate the needed mono and/or stereo in- and outputs under Input and Output Config respectively.Choose the built-in output or the one of your audio interface as Audio Output Device.Otherwise arming a track will greet you with some nasty feedback. You can also choose the built-in microphone, but then do yourself the favour and use headphones. Choose either the built-in input or the one of your audio interface as Audio Input Device.Make sure Core Audio is chosen as the Driver Type.Start Live and go to the Preferences > Audio.Check the manual if there are any other setup steps necessary. Connect your audio interface to the Mac (via USB or Firewire most likely) and to a power source if needed (most do).Check the manufacturer’s website for the latest driver (some offer none though) and possibly a control software.Looking for the tutorial to set up audio on Windows? If you have an audio interface, read on as there’s a little more to take care of.
If you simply want to use the built-in sound card, the process is pretty straight forward and you can skip the first two steps.
