Motu M4 - Can't record guitar...

Post by ironchef_marc »

Ok this is rather embarrassing. You'd think I could figure this out but I've tried everything.

I'm almost done migrating to DP11 and a Mac Studio. I had to upgrade my interface and got an M4. No issue until today when I tried to record some guitar. I get input signal on the M4 (I will hear my guitar if I press Mon) but no signal goes to DP or nothing in the Audio Monitor. I tried both channels, checked my bundles, input monitoring, audio patch thru, no sounds get to DP. What am I missing?
