Title: DrumBrute - Novation Nio - Ableton Setup..
Post by: Sounds on October 08, 2017, 12:16:53 pm
Hello,

I was following the tutorial on setting up the microBrute with an audio interface and Ableton Live,
It kind of refreshed my memory on how i would go about setting up external equipment in Ableton.

So, I plugged in an usb cable into the Brute and then into my laptop, then opened up ableton
I can see the volume graphics in Ableton as the Brout sends the midi notes to the midi track.

I then plugged an old cable into the headphones connector on the Brute and then the other two ends into my novation nio inputs. (red/white)
I couldn't get good sound coming out from the mix out on the Brute, but that's prb down to the cable I'm using.

I opened an audio track in ableton this time and managed to get things setup, i can see the volume control moving in the audio track.
But.. the only way i can hear what's going on is if I plug my headphones into the Nio audio interface.

What do I need to do to hear the sound in my laptop?
I suppose it doesn't really matter as I can hear the brute in the nip now, even if i use effects in ableton.

Just curious what i need to do to get the sound from the laptop rather than the audio interface.

Thanks

Hi Sounds,
If you want the music to come out from your laptop's speakers, you need to use your integrated laptop soundcard.

Regards,
Y.
