Apr 01, 2020 ASIO is basically the industry standard driver setting for DAW programs, (Digital Audio Workstation) and is currently not supported by OBS. The only option to get OBS to pick up your DAW output is to add another program to route your DAW output through, and that adds a LOT of latency if you're looking to record music while your streaming.

EIE & EIE Pro - Additional Tips
In this section, we will briefly cover selecting specific inputs for Audio tracks, and selecting different outputs for the Master.
Input Selection- First, make sure that Ableton is showing you the I/O settings. You can turn this on by clicking the I/O button next to the Master track on the right side of Ableton.
- Now you should see some additional options for both Audio and MIDI tracks appear.
- With the EIE and EIE Pro, you can choose to have each input go to separate tracks.
- At the bottom of each track, you will see Audio From set to Ext. In. This is your EIE or EIE Pro. Below that field, you will notice another drop-down menu. This setting allows you to choose different configurations of inputs to the track you are working with. The numbers here relate to the numbers on the input jacks.
- Once you make a selection, that track will only pick up the audio signal from the inputs you have selected.
- First, make sure that Ableton is showing you the I/O settings. You can turn this on by clicking the I/O button next to the Master track on the right side of Ableton.
- Now you should see some additional options for both Audio and MIDI tracks appear.
- The EIE and EIE Pro both have 4 outputs for many different purposes. if you are looking to have your EIE output to something other than the default 1/2, you can adjust this with the Master Out setting at the bottom of the Master column. The numbers here relate to the numbers on the output jacks.
- If you are looking to have all 4 outputs passing audio simultaneously, you can set the Cue Out in the same way you did with the Master. A basic configuration would be to set the Master Out to 1/2, and the Cue Out to 3/4. You will then have separate volume controls for each set of outputs.
- Once you make a selection, Ableton will only output the Master/Cue to the selections you have made!
