Topic: setting up Fireface UCX with Ableton

I'm setting up a Fireface UCX with Ableton Live 10 but for some reason in the settings every input pair on the UCX is being listed as a separate device, same with the output

This stops me from choosing the device and then choosing on each ableton track which the input is 'listened' to. If for example I choose 'Analog (1+2) (RME Fireface UCX) DX' as the input, I can only choose either channel 1 or 2 of that input pair as the input, the same with the output.

I updated the drivers, makes no difference.

Can anyone help? I'm really confused

Hi

Normally it depends on the selected track type in the DAW - mono or stereo.
Do you have a Windows PC or a Mac?

I'm talking about in the SETTINGS, where you select the driver type and the input device. Here every possible input on the interface is listed as a different device

I'm on Windows 10

Sorry, my bad.
Do you have the right ASIO driver selected?
And have you opened the input and output config?

Re: setting up Fireface UCX with Ableton

I’m having the same issue with each pair of IO showing up as its own device for both input and output in Ableton on PC, anyone know the trick for this?
