U46DJ 

ESI

 

6.3. Tracktion

 

The U46DJ comes bundled with the full version of Tracktion – a professional recording and MIDI 
production software by Mackie / Raw Material Software. After launching Tracktion, select Settings 
then go to the audio devices tab. Choose ASIO 2.0 – U46DJ as playback and record device as 
shown below.  

 

 

 

 

Again, due to the limitations of the USB 1.1 driver, audio output at 48 kHz sample rate is 
limited to 4 channels. If you need better audio quality and don’t need all 6 outputs, you can 
choose the 48 kHz driver. If you need all 6 outputs for your work, you must choose the 44.1 
kHz driver.
