Using UR44 with Audacity on Mac

Post by piyushs » Wed Feb 03, 2021 1:55 am

I am trying to use UR44 with Audacity on Mac (Big Sur V11.0.1), however I can not get Audacity to recognize UR44. I have installed the driver for UR44 and the dspMixFx_UR44 application from Yamaha recognizes the box along with any input.

Also when I look under the preferences, UR44 shows up as a MIDI device and not a audio input/output device.

Not sure what I am doing wrong, any help will be appreciated.

Thanks

Windows guy here. I don't know why it is only showing up as a MIDI device. You should be able to use the UR44 with Audacity on Mac. See here: viewtopic.php?t=113716

Are you using Audacity 2.4.2 ? Does Audacity have permission to use the microphone ? See here: viewtopic.php?t=113466

I hope this helps. :D
