Audio8, Ableton & VXT help

Today i just went and purchased some KRK VXT4’s. I have connected it through my Audio 8 interface via output 1/2 into the KRK’s and USB into my iMac.

I have managed to get the control for the volume through Ableton. But how can i use it so i listen to my itunes music through my VXTs and internet stuff like dancetrippin? Also is there shortcut keys in Ableton for volume control, iv either misplaced my manual or left it at my mates studio.. :smiley:

Thanks.

P.S, Feel kinda dumb asking this..

Go to Apple/System Preferences/Sound/Output and choose the Audio8 as the default sound device. That should route your system audio into the 1/2 outputs of your A8.

Thanks, i eventually got this, but i still can’t get the sound through the KRKs. But all settings changed.

I have also been able to get everything else working i was asking.

If I recall correctly those settings could not be found in the system preferences. I think you need to use the Audio/MIDI-utility (or whatever it’s called, start a spotlight search for “audio midi”). I’m at work right now and have my MacBook at home, so I can’t look up the exact details atm.

Edit: Google says it’s called “Audio Midi Setup”…
