▌ CREATING AN AGGREGATE DEVICE - PC
1. A PC has no native options to aggregate devices. It is recommended to
use an up to date audio compatible driver on the PC. The ASIO4ALL
driver is a commonly used 3
rd
party option with PC’s for audio
applications. The guide below assumes using ASIO4ALL.
2. Ensure Tracker Mini is connected to the PC via the USB connection.
3. Ensure the ASIO4ALL driver is selected in your chosen DAW as the
audio interface and open the driver to set up the options.
4. In the ASIO4ALL window the left window pane should show all the
available input and output devices.
5. Check the devices to integrate together. There may also be options to
aggregate only specic inputs rather than an entire device. This is
usually available when ASIO4ALL is not in ‘simple view’ mode.
6. Once the devices have been selected the associated inputs will appear
in a DAW’s audio interface options, for example ‘Audio input’ and ‘Audio
output’ options in Ableton Live Audio settings. Remember that the
ASIO4ALL must be the driver selected.
7. This aggregated device should be the chosen option to interface the
Tracker Mini to the Mac Audio. This will handle all the available inputs
from Tracker Mini as well as the aggregated audio I/O functions.
The ability to connect audio via USB is possible. An example is when using
a PC or Mac via USB which hosts a compatible application, for example
Ableton Live DAW. It is recommended to connected directly between
devices and not through a USB hub for best results.
