need help bad

so i have an apc 40 and i wanted to be able to cue my tracks out of it so i went ahead and bout ‘komplete audio 6’

i figured it out to where i can cue my tracks, but the sound only comes out of one speaker, and one of my head phones. i dont understand. please help

What software are you using? And what hardware do you have, and how is it connected up?

Open traktor’s preferences, in Audio, make sure the Komplete 6 is chosen as your sound card, then go to routing, and put output 1 as your master and output 2 as your monitor, the L and R in each respectively.

I’m not sure how everything is supposed to look because I’ve never set up a Komplete Audio 6, which is different than a Traktor Audio 6.

Speakers should be connected to outputs 1 and 2 of the KA6, and Master output of your software should be routed there too.

Headphones should be connected to the front Phones port (select 3/4 using the switch) and the Monitor output should be routed to outputs 3 and 4 of the KA6.

I’m using ableton live 9

I have the audio 6 in through USB.
Apc50 in with USB

2 speakers and sennhizer headphones.

The headphones are in the headphone jack in the front, the monitors are in the 3/4 out pot in the back. But only one speaker on both the headphones and the speaker produces sount

Apc40*

I only have one jack for the speakers though

Okay, so.. on the back of the KA 6, you’ve got one speaker plugged into output 3 and one speaker plugged into output 4, right? Those aren’t stereo outputs..

Here’s how I have the audio setup in Ableton:

Yeah but I only have one cable for both the speakers. Maybe I need to go out and buy additional cables? The other thing is when I connect it to the ‘main’ out let I don’t get and sound out of either speaker, and I can’t figure out how to configure my controlled panel to send the sound out of main.

Yes, you need 1 cable per speaker. There is a large dial in the middle of the device for controlling volume through the MAIN out.

What speakers are you using?

Okay.. if you’re using computer speakers that only have one stereo cable, with probably an 1/8" plug, you’d need something like this:

And then something like this, to join the cable from the speakers to it:

Man they a some lame ass m-audio studio pro3 speakers I’ve had them forever, need to update bad but that’s not in the budget right now so I have to make due. But okay I’ll try and buy some new cables. But I’m still skeptical cause when I plug the one cable I do have into the main I don’t get any sound, even if I crank the huge dial in the middle of the ka6.

No the have a left and a right, but it goes down into one cable, and I have an adapter for them that I’m using

Ok, for the M-Audio Studio Pro 3 you should use a couple of these cables:

They’re called Mono TS to RCA.

Since both inputs are on the same speaker you could also use a paired cable like this:

If you already have RCA to RCA cables you could just get a pair of adapters:

OK on my way to store now I’ll update in a lil

mission accomplished!!! thank you so much
