Finder - Mono playback through line 5 on Ultralite 5

When playing an audio file back from the Finder window a stereo file plays through Computer USB Main 1-2 as expected. If I playback a mono file it comes through on Line 5 and I have to pull that up in CuMix to hear it. Any idea why mono files aren't playing back through the main USB? Thanks. Ultrali...

Ultralite 5 - Are the In/Out signals all Analogue?

Re: Ultralite 5 - CueMix out but no in!

It seems the MOTU likes everything to be switched on first. If I turn on the outboard gear, then the MOTU and finally the Mac, then everything works. If I switch on the Mac & MOTU first then the input issue arrises.

Ultralite 5 - CueMix out but no in!

Hi, I have an Ultralite 5 that I have just added a stereo compressor and EQ to - in/out on lines 3/4 & 5/6 respectively, mic on the front input 1. If I play something out of the computer or talk into the mic with 3-6 on CueMix up, then all the output from the Ultralite to the two hardware boxes ...

Output level on Ultralite mk5

I've noticed that the volume level seems a lot lower coming out of the MOTU than on the Forte - where i'd have the Forte at say -50dB to get the equivalent volume from the MOTU i'm cranking the output ...
