I recently acquired a Microfreak and Minifuse 2. I am new to hardware synths and facing few issues within Ableton to get audio-recording to work.
Here is what I have done so far,
- Connected Minifuse to macbook using the Arturia in-box cable. Upgraded firmware and rebooted machines.
- Using a TRS mono cable, connected the Microfreak output to Minifuse 1. Turned it on so light is blue and can see gain response.
- Within ableton – Driver Type selected is Core Audio. And minifuse (4 in, 4 out) for Input and Output
- In Input config, selected 1 & 2 for Mono, 1/2 for Stereo. Similar options selected for Output.
- Now when track is armed with Audio From Ext. in - 1, And Monitor In and Auto, I can see the gain but it only records almost a phased out noise.
- Also, when mix dial on Minifuse is on 100% USB, i hear this same noise. Though when it is on 100% input, I can hear the clean synth output – though ofcourse, it does not record.
- Lastly, in Minifuse Control Center when I enable the Loopback to Hardware Outputs, I can hear complete synth sound, though this doesn’t have any impact on Ableton input channels. Also I haven’t done changes to Loopback and only tried it as it made the mix dial output correct sound to play.
I think i am doing something very obviously wrong with routing, making the audio input and output cancel out, leading to a phased out audio-recording, but can’t really pin-point with little experience.
Any help?
I am also attaching the screenshots. Thank You!
