    Since the last place you describe seeing meters is on the input side of Ableton Live have you routed each channel out to the corresponding external output? By default, Live routes everything to the master bus.

    If you have the output routing in Live then I would continue to work through the signal chain until you find the source(s) of the problem.

    If your computer has enough resources to handle both applications running this on the same computer shouldn’t be a problem.

    Additionally, you could also accomplish this same insert routing from the Waves SoundGrid card if you install the free SoundGrid driver on your computer. The SoundGrid driver works similarly to Dante Virtual Soundcard. Both Dante and SoundGrid are audio transport protocols. Because SoundGrid is most frequently talked about for plugin processing many overlook the fact that it can be used for recording or the audio routing you are attempting here.

    @msteel After reading this thread, I discovered that TheaterMix is now listing the D-Live as a compatible console.

    I would like to address what I think is a fundamental misunderstanding of what the scenes on the SQ can bring to this problem. A scene on this mixer can capture every setting on the entire console. By properly using filters one scene can recall the setting for all 10 IEM mixes at one time, and not change anything else.

    Do a run-through of your set at rehearsal, and have the FOH operator grab a scene at the end of every song. Have them filter for just the in-ear mixes that need to change. This can be accomplished easily with five scenes, even for all 10 people. As you said, ” The SQ possesses all the power needed to accomplish this.” No app update is needed.

    You can even trigger these scenes from a small MIDI controller on stage or Ableton if you are using it for playback.

    If this still doesn’t meet your needs I would suggest the addition of a monitor board on stage, and a dedicated volunteer to manage all that you are asking. To my knowledge, no manufacturer, has what you are asking for from an app, you would have to look to a third party to accomplish this.

    The soft keys can be controlled with Note On & Note Off messages. Details can be found on page 10 of the SQ MIDI Protocol Issue 1 document found here: https://www.allen-heath.com/media/SQ-MIDI-Protocol-Issue1.pdf

    heinrich, you are correct that by default the mixes should also be recalled with a scene change.

    Have you checked to see if any safes or scene filters have been applied to the scenes you are using? Either of these could prevent the mixer from recalling the settings you are looking for.

    If you find that a safe or filter has been set, you should find that the settings from your last stored scene should be recalled with each scene once these are removed.

    Hope that helps!
