Garageband, Motu 828 And Getting Audio Out Options

[R-Man]

I have found that the easiest way way for me to set up the drum backings that I need is to utilize the GB drum loops and jam packs. Love it.

Now I want to send my loop out to another device (BOSS BR-864) to use as a fast portable practice tool.

I would prefer not to export an MP3 which is the only thing I know how to do.

Is there another, or better way for me to send the audio out and into my BOSS?

My setup is: MOTU 828 and Garageband

Help, please! Thank you!

kaboom...

Here's my story sad but true...

First I tried the Cuemix bus 2 move as you suggested. When nothing happened I went back to bus 1 just to see if CueMix is even engaged with GB. I suspect it is not. During GB playback through my normal monitors I shut the Cuemix levels down to 0. It did not affect the playback at all.

I AM playing through the 828 but is it possible that GB simply does not route through CueMix and instead has a default that cannot be altered?

In response to someone else's suggestion (another board) of changing the default "audio outs" in the Firewre MOTU Console to analog 1 & 2 I tried that as well. Even when the default is reading analog 1 &2 the GB playback is still coming through the orig monitors (Main Outs).

I am sorry to be such a newb and feel like I have probably exhausted your kind-hearted gererosity. I am grateful for your efforts. It is quite likely I am missing something very fundamental.

Thanks
