How can I get Ableton 9 to load without audio interface, which is away for repair.

You just jumped the gun on this one.

If you say so brother.

Have a good night.

This might be a silly question.. but what would you do with Ableton and no audio interface?

Perfect on the move, plug headphones in. Do some arrangements, create new drum pattern, make some cool sound designs on vst synths when you're away from home. Even make a track =)

All I do in ableton is make fart noises.

use your onboard soundcard and ASIO4ALL as a driver.

If I ever boot up LIVE with soundcard unplugged, if I'm away from my desk, it hangs like hell. Used to on an old Live 8 cracked copy I used and still does the same on legit 9.2 version.

Also works vice-versa, when I plug the soundcard in and I've been running off mobo soundcard.

LIVE DOES load, in the end. Just leave it to do its thing.

however, I have another soundcard (native audio 10) which I did use in place.

fact remains if hardware and drivers are not set up and running correctly, before running ableton live, then live will have a tantrum about it.

made changes to my setup, but essentially the soundcards are still there and all working properly.
