Hi there - I am hoping you all can shed light on this for me. This is my first post, and while not new to DAWS, still have tons of learning to do.
Ok so I have Ableton 11 and a MOTU M4, and I am trying to figure out how to have the Daw output and click/metronome be output through the headphones jack on the M4.
In Ableton, I have Cue out set to output 3/4 on the M4, and Master Out set to 1/2 on the M4. I can see via the output meters on the M4 that both are receiving output, however, only 1/2 are output through the headphones.
I have tried the 3/4 button and the input monitor mix dial, but its almost like that only works for ACTUAL input.
Thanks for any advice - appreciated.

Not familiar with Live, but in DP I would probably do this by outputting the click to a bus and then creating a couple of aux tracks with that bus as the input. Set one aux output to 1-2 and the other to 3-4. I don't know that there is any setting on the M4 itself than can achieve this.

Thanks - I will try that out.
I also thought out just getting a small mixer, running the 4 outs from the m4 into it and then using the output from the mixer
Essentially the same thing, but IRL.
