Petra Arra 24.11.2013 | KOMPLETE_AUDIO_6_web_setups-01.jpg for reference maybe you should check your preference in the software. even if you connect all your stuff correctly, if your audio output is not optimized correctly, you would not get any sound. for clarification to us who are trying to help. what software are you using? ableton? traktor? cubase? etc. |

You do realize that manuals and support are available on each of the respective manufactures websites. Honestly it sounds like you are trying to compete with Usain Bolt before you can crawl (never mind walk) - start with ONE controller and ONE piece of software and go from there (read point above). IMHO start with getting sound out of the VCI300 - it'll be the most straight forward. |

Alphonso Deitchman 24.11.2013 | If you are using Serato, connect the VCI to your KA6 using TRS cables and use the Direct Monitoring feature. http://www.native-instruments.com/kn...TE+AUDIO+6+%3F Otherwise, just use the KA6 as your sound card for your software output. |
Leatrice Kobernik 24.11.2013 | i am using a mac.. i am sorry for the noobness :P haha |
Leatrice Kobernik 24.11.2013 | arsman is there anyway i can plug in my controller to the setup ? |

Leatrice Kobernik 24.11.2013 | Well what i'm trying to do for a starter is to connect the rokit 8, the interface and my Vestax vci 300 midi controller all together .. what i've been trying to do is i connected the monitors to the interface and then connected the controller to the interface .. i seem to be getting signal because the green button turns onn and off with the beats but i dont get any audio .. also i got a cd with the interface i install it and no software shows up ? is that normal ? i dont really know :P |
Alphonso Deitchman 23.11.2013 | What doesn't seem to work? |
Leatrice Kobernik 23.11.2013 | Ok, heres the deal, i have a Microkorg XL, an Audio 6 interface , Vestax Vci 300 , Pair of Rokit 8 and the microphone integrated on the Microkorg..

robin loo 23.11.2013 | the audio 6 has mix and line inputs.. |
Rolanda Clodfelder 23.11.2013 |
Haha, what?
Either I don't get the sarcasm or this is one of the most blatantly wrong posts I've read in a while (and there's generally no shortage of those). Tweeters should be at ear height! The OP has his speakers on the ground - which NEEDS to be corrected, where they are right now is a complete a waste of speakers. Get some Wall brackets, stands or shelves ASAP As for the Soundcard, just plug the Korg in to the audio inputs - simple, Mic you'll need a preamp as the Audio6 does not have a mic input. speakers into two of the RCA outputs .. keyboard ? ... sry you lost me - what keyboard. All the routing depends then on your software .. so unless you tell us more :-S Heres what to do. 1. List down all your gear (including computer) 2. List your software 3. Tell us what do you want to do exactly. OR Get a small mixing desk for under $100 and plug everything into that and THEN into the audio card. |

Antonetta Domenech 23.11.2013 | you should start by putting the rokits lower to the ground, in fact under the table would work nice. Thats how most producers work. |
