Audient iD14 MKII: use a known Cue mix with normal headphone control. Check prerequisites and the actual response before reporting an outcome.
Manufacturer-documented Reviewed 2026-11-09 · Revision 1
Follow these checks in Audio Fix →When this guide applies
Existing prepared CueA mix; headphone output was intentionally set to DAW Thru.
Connection scope: USB audio. Symptom: Sound goes to the wrong output.
This is a documented check, not a diagnosis of your equipment. The model name does not confirm the selected input, mode, software or connected partner.
If your exact model or a required setting is unknown, use the “I don’t know” branch below. Do not apply a similarly named model’s instructions.
Checks and possible outcomes
Start at step-0. Follow the link that matches what you actually observe. Alternative branches are not a single sequence of actions.
step-0
Is CueA already configured with the intended safe monitor mix?
This does not invent or overwrite a performer mix.
Look for: Confirm the actual prerequisite or observation. Unknown stops safely.
- If Yes / check completed → Is the headphone output currently assigned to DAW Thru?
- If No / cannot confirm → Keep these observations for official support
- If I do not know / cannot check → A required fact is unknown

step-1
Is the headphone output currently assigned to DAW Thru?
That path bypasses the normal headphone volume control.
Look for: Confirm the actual prerequisite or observation. Unknown stops safely.
- If Yes / check completed → May playback be stopped with source level reduced before routing changes?
- If No / cannot confirm → Keep these observations for official support
- If I do not know / cannot check → A required fact is unknown

step-2
May playback be stopped with source level reduced before routing changes?
The manufacturer warns DAW Thru can be unexpectedly loud; do not test at full level.
Look for: Confirm the actual prerequisite or observation. Unknown stops safely.
- If Yes / check completed → Assign the headphone output to CueA in the routing matrix
- If No / cannot confirm → Keep these observations for official support
- If I do not know / cannot check → A required fact is unknown

step-3
Assign the headphone output to CueA in the routing matrix
Retain the old assignment for restoration. Do not alter line-output assignments.
Look for: Perform only the stated operation, then confirm whether it could be completed.
- If Yes / check completed → Does the known CueA mix reach headphones with normal level control?
- If No / cannot confirm → Keep these observations for official support
- If I do not know / cannot check → A required fact is unknown

step-4
Does the known CueA mix reach headphones with normal level control?
Raise only gently after confirming the selected output. A routing change is not a measured loudness guarantee.
Look for: Confirm the actual prerequisite or observation. Unknown stops safely.
- If Yes / check completed → Checks completed — report what happened
- If No / cannot confirm → Keep these observations for official support

Possible result
Checks completed — report what happened
Completion is not an automatic solved result. Report solved, partly helped, did not help or could not follow based on your actual observation. No Audio Review physical test is claimed.
steps completed
Reaching this result does not mean the issue is solved. Only your own feedback can report improvement.
Possible result
Keep these observations for official support
A required prerequisite or response was not confirmed. Stop this sequence and use the exact model and partner documentation. Do not escalate to a factory reset, firmware installation, internal repair or unsafe wiring change.
next support
Reaching this result does not mean the issue is solved. Only your own feedback can report improvement.
Possible result
A required fact is unknown
Confirm the exact model, connection, partner capability and current control state before continuing. Do not guess settings or operate an updating product.
insufficient data
