You sir have a gift. You are the first teacher I have found on Youtube that teaches clearly and with a much follow-able pace that even me, a 75 year old, old school musician with little knowledge of today's technology can easily understand. I am trying to lean home recording and for the first time I think I may be able to progress because I found you. You are an excellent teacher. Thank you so sincerely. Tom

[jaustin]

Great teacher. Very easy to follow and understand. Thank you sir.

Thank you so much for your guides David huge help. Just one thing to mention. If you are PC rather than Mac you need to download the audiobox driver. I had to do some digging to find this out. Studio one wasn't recognising the audiobox without it and it didn't download with the rest of the software.

[Shawn-pkhc]

Thank you for this perfect explanation sir!

I’ve bought some monitors and used the headphone out of my Mac mini for the output. Is that ok or do I need to output from the presonus box? If I do that will all of my other audio not work, eg, YouTube?

NOTE to Windows Users: Playback and Recording Devices are set in the Windows Control Panel.

Change the Control Panel from Category View to Small or Large Icons View and go into Manage Audio Devices.

Set Audiobox 96 as the Default Playback device to hear your music through the speakers or headphones connected to the Audiobox 96. Make sure you go into Properties of the Audiobox and check Enable. When you use your PC without the Audiobox connected, don't worry, Windows should revert to the built-in speakers as the Playback device, as long as you haven't Disabled your internal speakers.

Because the Audiobox is connected via USB, it will appear as a Line device under Recording Devices. Make sure you go into Properties and Enable it. Then make it the Default Recording device.

Under Sounds in the Control Panel, I recommend you set the Sound Scheme to None to avoid operating system sounds from interfering while you're working with Studio One

On my screen it shows the audio box but under it it says Windows audio instead of pre-Sonus audio box do I have the wrong driver installed and how would I fix that I am brand new to this

Hi guys, I’ve found studio 2/6 and selected this as the audio input and output but no sound comes from the Eris speakers. I’ve had to connect the interface via a USB adapter to a Lightning C port in my Mac. Could this be the cause for no sound through the monitors? If yes, is there a suggested USB C to USB B I can use ?

[AdamBrody]

Hi everyone! At first, thanks for the video, I hoped to get some help from it but unfortunately, it didn't work for me.

My problem is this:
I cannot hear the input of my keyboard at all, hence I thought that I should change sth in the audio setup. However, I cannot even change e.g. the device block size. I'm simply "not allowed" to by the interface. Do you have any idea what could be a solution for my problem? I'd appreciate any help because I finally would like to start using the MIDI controller. Thank you!

[AnupamDas]

Hi if I set the device block size smaller like 64 or less then is there any quality issue on recording? thank you so much.

[ljfxytu]

this was REALLY helpfull and easy!!! THanks!!

My YamahaTHR10x amp acts as an interface and I can see it in the set up. Problem is, it plays back through the amp. Almost blew my speakers! Any idea how to set it so my speakers get the playback and not the amp?

[vhou]

I dont have a playback device or recording device options

[bite-sizedtruth]

Does anyone know what the problem may be if studio one does not show playback device and recording device options? I have no issue using my mic on my interface but im a little confused as to why the playback device and recording device options are not showing up.

[Vancity-]

Well, now I'm having a different issue, I use ASIO ForAll driver and using GE-200, I recorded guitar but there is nothing happen, no signal coming out and shown in my track, I checked input and output (I/O set up) and see all input and output are there, please advice what could be wrong

[ellisdee]

so, every time i launch studio one it says Failed to open line(2-AudioBox USB 96) please make sure that the sample rates of your recording and playback devices match. I'm having the hardest time with it. I know its probably simple but its very aggravating. could someone please help me out. Thanks.

[Impuhlz]

anybody else have the issue that their Studio 24c device isn't listed under the Audio Device dropdown? Any advice/help would be awesome, thanks

[vanityrose]

what do you do if your "Audiobox USB 96" isn't showing as an option to select? that's the problem I'm having.

[leejlogan]

i can't adjust mine, it's fixed at 1764 for the device block size????
