Hello. I am returning to DJing / producing after a 19-year layoff (long story). A lot has changed since I left the scene. I need help setting up my equipment properly. Here is what I have recently purchased:
- 2 Technic 1210s
- 1 Rane TTM57
- 1 Akai APC40 (Ableton controller)
- 1 Akai MPD18 (drum pad/controller)
- 1 M-Audio Oxygen 49 Midi Keyboard
- 1 M-Audio Profire 610
- 2 M-Audio BX5a Studio Monitors
- Ableton Live 8 - Serato Scratch Live 2
- 1 Mac Book Pro running OS X 10.6.3
I currently have my Rane mixer connected to the Profire from the MAIN Right & Left out to the Profire's line inputs 3 & 4 in the back. I have my studio monitors connected to Profire's line outputs 1 & 2 in the back.
Playing from Serato/decks works properly. However:
- I cannot play audio out of Ableton (I have change preferences)
- When I play a video on my browser (so I can train using tutorials), the audio will only come out of my speakers *if* Serato is closed. If open, then the browser's audio is muted.
Ultimately, my goals are to:
* DJ live and incorporate Ableton mixes
• Do remixes, medleys, etc in Ableton and incorporate scractching from decsk
• Produce original music using all my tools
Can you please help me?
