I am trying out an M-Audio USB Audiophile.

When I am using DP or any other MIDI/audio sequencer I can get audio in and out. I use Anolog IN/OUT.

However

with computer on ( but not signed into a MIDI/audio sequencer ) or with computer off and just playing my keyboard I can not get any audio through headset or external speakers. All sound levels are turned up at the audiophile and keyboard and external speakers.

Is this the way your M-Audio USB Audiophile works?

The audiophile doesn't have any sort of internal mixer that would allow it to run standalone and route inputs to outputs. So it won't do anything while your computer is off.

If you can't get an app such as iTunes to play through it check your audio/MIDI setup and make sure the audiophile is set as the default output.

Thank you for your reply/info confirming for me that
this hardware is only for input/output audio/MIDI to a computer and not as a stand alone mixer for routing audio/MIDI.

I thought I was going nuts trying to use it as a stand alone. The book that comes with the unit does not make that clear

It works fine with the computer.
