Arturia Minifuse 4 Troubleshooting

How to fix common issues with the Arturia Minifuse 4 found in Recording Standard rooms 

Volume Knob Not Responding or No Sound

Ensure the speaker cables are plugged in to OUTPUTS 1L and 2R, otherwise the volume knob will not respond. If no sound is playing from the speakers, make sure they both have a power light on the front and are selected as the Output in your Laptop Settings and Recording Software (DAW)

Clicks and Pops

If you experience clicks and pops in your projects, try increasing the buffer size in your host application or the audio driver.

Latency Issues

Latency is a small delay and it's a direct byproduct of sample rate and buffer size settings, so adjusting these settings in your host application or the audio driver will have an impact on latency. For more information on how to change these settings in your DAW, please see this support article from Minifuse: HERE
-If the Direct Monitoring button is pressed on the Interface, you'll need to turn off monitoring for the recording channel in your DAW to prevent an echo through the speakers or headphones.
