Re: Beginner Question: Routing and Volume

Just seen this. I suspect the OP has figured it out for himself by now but for the benefit of future readers I'll try and answer anyway. This situation is actually quite logical and straightforward once you get it but a common source of confusion for beginners. 1. How can I route Ableton OUT 1/2 to ...

Re: Is it possible to use Cuemix effects internally?

Yes but the return is an input. So in order to get it back out again to his Mains 1-2 he would have to record it and pass it out as a monitor mix. Which would be fine, except he wants to do this with 4 channels rather than just 1 or 2 and the return only applies to one output at a time. This is my u...

Re: Is it possible to use Cuemix effects internally?

It is a bit of a kludge but the simple answer is Yes.

On the Ultralite you will need to re route the various outputs back into the unit again as inputs. Then mix them down to two tracks. S/PDIF is ideal for this but going round a DAC/ADC loop doesn't have an audible effect either.

Re: AudioDesk 4 now available - free for MOTU interface owne

AudioDesk 4.01 incompatible with Windows Vista 64. Official.

Anyone got it working on 7 or 8.1?

Re: AudioDesk 4 now available - free for MOTU interface owne

Thanks Mike I'm on it. Might take a while. Seems like error 0x80070643 is something of a bucket code for a number of different issues. So I'm going to be careful and take my time. Don't want to make things worse given that everything else is currently hunky dory. I've already run the MS NET framewor...

Re: AudioDesk 4 now available - free for MOTU interface owne

Has anyone got this to install on Windows yet?

I've had several tries so far and always get fatal error 0x80070643 after less than 5% of the install process.

Have you seen this error. Did you figure out how to fix it?

Thx

Re: Mk3 Ultralite Hybrid and 'special' routing

When Main Out 1-2 is set to Main Out 1-2 it becomes it's own stereo pair. So you have 10 instead of 8. No mirroring. The simple answer is No. You can only send outputs from your DAW to outputs on your Ultralite. So you cannot really mix with them or rather only with inputs on the hardware. Some MOTU...

Re: Need Help with MOTU 828mk3 Hybrid Audio Interface - No A

Are you still there spacev2? You just need to chill out a bit and start again from the top. There clearly isn't a systematic problem with the drivers. It's something to do with your specific situation. In fact I have a suspicion I know what it is. In any event I will help you if I can. As a first st...

Re: Windows media player no headphones

I don't know for sure if this is your problem OP but it is consistent with the evidence and a peculiarity of Cuemix that might also confuse others. With nothing else running and in the OP's exact situation. Start the MOTU Audio Console. Change the 'Main Out Assign' from the default 'Analog 1-2' to '...

Re: Surround sound Ultralite mk3 hybrid

I'd love to be contradicted on this (anyone?) but I don't think it's possible. You need to decode the audio in hardware, that's ow Dolby maintains it's trademark. There may well be software decoders knocking about but they will be hard to find and probably illegal most places. It doesn't have to be ...

Re: what about Motu's interfaces and Windows 8 ?

Ultralite Hybrid updated to latest firmware and latest audio driver package (re)installed on Vista, 7 and 8.1 one week ago.

Upgrades went flawlessly and no significant issues so far.

I didn't get round to all the faff involved in a full on ABX test but I did reassure myself that any differences that did exist were so hard to detect it wasn't really worth worrying about.

Re: Routing PC Audio to Phones without Mains EQ

The PC audio is not available for the mixbus in CueMix.
This.

The easiest work around to get you going is to select S/PDIF as your main out, connect the S/PDIF out to the S/PDIF in (loopback) and then use a different mixer to output to speakers and phones.

Re: CueMix, Audio Express & Routing

I have an Ultralite. No experience with Audio Express. Strange to say you cannot do what you propose with an Ultralite. The assigned audio goes direct to the outputs you specify in you app. You can mix in other inputs to the same outputs but you have no direct control over the output via USB. The po...

Re: Ultralite mk3 multiple output playback simultaneously

There are many ways of achieving your objective. Do you have CueMix installed? Have you found the MOTU Audio Console? If so a simple method, which I thought was the install default but it's been a while, is to proceed as follows. In the audio console for Main Out Assign select Analog 1-2 from the dr...
