AIRA Gear......Need help with setting up!

Post by RedEyeJedi »

Hello and thanks for taking a peak. I have been a DJ for over twenty four years and I just started getting into playing with gear about a year ago or so. The equipment that I have is : Roland DJ-505, System-1, VT-3, TB-3, TR8S, MC-307, MX-1. I have Abelton Live 8 and Ableton 10 Lite. I did the Firmware updates. I'm trying to figure it out. Any help appreciated. Thanks!

Your MX-1 is an audio interface - it goes into the PC. Drivers should auto-install if you have a PC (don't know about Mac).

Everything then goes into your MX-1;

System-1, VT-3, TB-3 and TR8S will use the USB slots (note that only USB 3 is powered, the others require power)

The DJ-505 would need to go in as audio in channels 1 and 2 (ie left and right)

The Mc-307 would go in as audio channels 3 and 4

Once drivers are installed, set up preferences in Ableton with the MX-1 as being the audio device (ASIO). In Ableton set your Master and Cue outs on channels 17/18.

Now just select the input channels you want for your tracks.
