You've been able to use the 57 as a mixer for ableton since it came out, are you on Mac or PC?

Did you check out this www2.scratchlive.net <- click

Thanks nick.
Im dl'in it now.

OK I tried this but it only allows multi track INPUT not output.
Basically I want to be able to assign output 1 + 2 (in live or logic) to channel 1 (on the 57) and output 3+4 to channel 2 but at the moment the 57 only lets you choose between channel 1 OR channel 2 as the output device.
Unless Im doin something horribly wrong?

Watchwww.youtube.com

Are you trying to use SSL at the same time?

I can't help on this, on a PC it's easy to do using ASIO, not sure how you go about it on a Mac though.

Nah, in my band, I use Live as my electronic drum kit. if Im using it like this, its so I can put the click track on 1 channel muted in headphones and have the other channel for drumming out the front of house.
At the mo Im using a motu ultralite which works great but seeing as the 57 is a 2 channel soundcard Id also like to use this too.

Any Mac users?
(thanks for the help anyway nobspangle)

I still dont understand what you are trying to achieve.

nik, Dizz wants to use the mixer as a soundcard for Ableton. He wants to be able to send separate stereo channels to channel 1&2 on the mixer.
On windows you just go into the setup and tell Ableton that your ASIO device has 4 channels.

I presume you have to create an aggregate device similar to how Stuart describes in his guide here => homepage.mac.com except using the output channels rather than the inputs.

Yes, usually you can only use one ASIO device/soundcard, therefore you combined them as one aggregated device as described in the given link.
