Bug Description
Ok I'm on a time crunch, I go live Wednesday morning.
No matter what I have Sound API set at including none, Mixxx sound is hot and sends to the Record/Broadcast section.
It appears that all the input/output setting have no affect.
I need to send it out via Line out to the mixer. Then bring in back in from the mixer via Line In/Microphone and send it out via Record/Broadcast. Should be straight forward, I have no control over the sound from Mixxx. it's always hot and never makes it to the line out. However it's always going to Record/Broadcast.
Ideas?
Ron

It is difficult to give detailed help without knowing what sound card and mixer you are using.

What do you mean by this? Do you see the mixer's meters showing signal is coming in from Mixxx's output?

You can do this by sending Mixxx's output(s) to the mixer, connecting the mixer's output to a sound card input, and setting Mixxx's Record/Broadcast input to that sound card input. Do not configure any of Mixxx's microphone inputs.
However, this setup is not recommended because the unnecessary digital-to-analog and analog-to-digital conversions reduce the sound quality. It is better to use a sound card that supports direct monitoring instead of an external mixer.

Of course, scrambling to get and setup different hardware when you have a gig in a few days is not a good idea, but for the future you may want to consider different hardware.
