You need to plug in some speakers from the booth (rca) or main (1/4") on the back of the unit and run them to your speakers.

Page 19 of the user manual.

Or use the headphone jack if you dont care about prelisten. Turn the knob next to headphone volume from cue to master.

I found a workaround when I forgot to bring speakers to a hotel party this one time.

I have Ableton as well, and so I took the output of my twitch and ran it back into the input on my computer. I hit monitor on a channel in ableton, and it was able to play through the computer speakers while I was using ITCH / the Twitch.

There WAS a wicked delay though, so I had to mix through the headphones. But it worked. But honestly best thing to do is to get a small speaker setup for when you need to be mobile.
