No sound from Max instrument (MSP tutorial 1)

I'm planning to follow the MSP tutorials (Help->MSP tutorial) but I can't get any sound from the first one (a cycle~ connected to a dac~).

I had sound when using a Max Midi effect on a Live midi track in live. But I assume for the above to work I must use a Max instrument on a Live audio track instead (I've also tried putting it on a Live midi track).

I'm using Asio4All on Live 9, Windows 7 and I get sound out when using other audio plugins.

I think the settings in Audio Status are correct; the driver is set to Live and outputs 1 and 2 are set to channel 1 and 2 (the only options; I've also tried setting all 16 outputs to channels 1 and 2). When sending a 'start' message to the dac~ the Audio is set to 'On' in the Audio status.

I've also tried using MME/DirectSound.

Any ideas?

If you're doing the tutorials with M4L then you have to use [plugout~] instead of [dac~] to get sound to come through a track in Live.

Oh, that works, thanks!
