Like the FireStudio-family interfaces, the StudioLive features advanced WDM features to enhance 
its use as an audio interface. In the upper left-hand corner of the Universal Control Launcher 
window, you will 

fi

 nd the Settings menu. From here, you can con

fi

 gure your WDM input and output 

streams. 

Mac users will 

fi

 nd information about using your StudioLive as your main Core Audio 

device in your StudioLive user manual.

1)  

In the Launch window, go to Settings | WDM setup.

2)  

The WDM Channel Mapper window will open. By 
default, WDM Outputs 1 and 2 are routed to StudioLive 
Channels 1 and 2. As previously mentioned, we 
recommend that they be set, instead, to Channels 
17 and 18, so as not to use input channels on your 
StudioLive for WDM playback. To begin, check the 
box next to Output. Click on WDM 1 (front left) and 
drag it down to place it next to StudioLive 2 Track In 
Left. Click on WDM 2 (front right) and drag it down to 
place it next to StudioLive 2 Track In Right.

Your stereo WDM playback will now be routed directly 
to the main FireWire return buttons in the 2 Track In 
and Monitor buses in the StudioLive Master Section.
