Re: [Avid-L2] BlackMagic UltraStudio stole my audio!

 

Steve,

I have the same configuration and in order to get the USB speakers to work I must disable the hardware in the timeline. I think it's Avid that gives full control to the BM hardware. I don't have any other software to try it with on that station.

Am I missing a setting? I went to the System Preferences of the Mac and set that to USB codec (for the Alesis speakers) and I went to the Settings list on Avid and went to Audio Project settings and went to both Output tab and Hardware tab. Output doesn't give any options for USB and neither does the Audio Projects setting...
