Behringer X1204USB and Logic X

Hi. Hope someone can help me here, otherwise my mixer is broken....but it's not. I shall explain.


I have a Behringer X1204USB and am trying to hook it up with my MacBookPro & Logic X. I have done this before and got it working but I tried yesterday and there was no audio signal reaching Logic X. There is a signal coming from the mac because I can here YouTube, iTunes, etc through the mixer and out my monitor speakers, but when I play my keyboard and synth there is nothing. I have selected USB audio Codec In/Out in the Audio MIDI setup app, I have selected USB audio Codec as In/Out sources via Network Preferences>>Sound and I have also told Logic X to use USB audio Codec In/Out on the Audio Preferences setup page. But when I play the instruments there is no audio, no bouncing green bars...no signal. So I am stuck now, is there another setting somewhere? There is one thing, on the Audio MIDI setup on the USB Audio Codec, the output has adjustable blue Master volume control, whereas the Input controls are greyed out, set to 0 and not adjustable.

Like I said audio from my Mac is present, through the mixer, so I have the mixer setup correctly. Also I have watched/read many helpful videos and threads and followed all instructions. I have also tried creating an aggregate device from here;

However not sure I got this right with reference to Clock source because obviously I'm just setting this up in my bedroom, not a professional studio where all sources need timing, Word Clock etc. Is it possible High Sierra is not compatible with this mixer. I'm pretty sure I upgraded to High Sierra since I last hooked up my mini studio but can't find anything about that here, or online. But then how come I can hear other audio from my Mac, just not my instruments in Logic X. So not even sure where the issue lies, is it Logic, is it the mixer, or the OS? Any suggestions would be gratefully received. Thanks

Not sure if you need to download drivers to install for this unit or not. Some USB devices require it, like Apogee equipment does.


Verify (seems you have) that this devices shows up in the System Preferences > Audio settings, and is selected.

Go to Preferences > Audio in Logic (not project preferences, application preferences) and be sure it is set up as the input.


If you purchased this from Sweetwater, they have amazing tech support, and you may want to drop them a line.

Hi there. Thanks I will check I wasn't in project settings but I don't think so. Apparently not for the Mac, drivers are required for Windows and the only one available on Behringer's website was a .exe . I didn't purchase it from Sweetwater it was just on the Internet when I searched for no audio in Logic using Behringer X1204USB. It didn't work following their instructions but I might not have got it right! I'll drop them a line anyway, you never know. I'll keep plugging away. Thanks for your time.
