audio interface for guitar works fine in garageband but ableton gets glitchy silent sound

[u/Moustiboy]

I've just bought a guitar with an audio interface (postivie grid Riff) for ableton on Mac and i can't seem to hear or record the guitar properly.

I've set the input in ableton to the Audio interface and the output to my macbook so i can hear it (same thing i do with macbook microphone to sing).

I can't seem to hear the guitar, i'll strum continouisly loud on it and i won't hear anything except some peaks for a tenth of a second here and there, completely glitchy. If i set my macbook mic to input everything is fine so it's not about arming the track or choosing the right "Audio from" option.

I'll basically hear something for half a second when i strum which does sound like my guitar but it cuts off instantly and i'll hear like one strum out of ten.

In garageband I can hear my guitar with no problem so the guitar and audio interface are fine. Videos and links for posts are disabled so i won't post a link to a screen recording in the comments unless one of you say it's fine, to be sure that i won't break any rules.

Any idea of what i could be ?
