Antares harmony engine with Garageband 08

Has anyone tried antares harmony engine with garageband or even know if you can use it with garageband 08 ? I'm new to garageband and thought about trying it but, can't find a lot of info. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks very much for your reply this got me moving in the right direction but I have a slight revision to your instructions in Mainstage 3:
1/ Click the "+" to Create a new Instrument (in the pulldown menu in the dialog that follows select the MIDI keyboard you want to trigger the note events just like you would with one of the internal instruments)
2/ On the INPUT of the channel strip that was created Select AU MIDI-controlled Effects/Antares/Harmony Engine/mono (or stereo) in the I/O pop-up menu, where you usually select an instrument plugin (it will NOT be an insert effect!). You will not find the plug-in in AU Instrument submenu: go instead to the AU MIDI-controlled Effects at the very bottom of the pop-up window.
3/ Open the installed plug-in window.
4/ In the Side Chain pop-up (upper right corner of the Harmony Engine window) select the source audio track you want to process. Set the Harmony Source parameter to Chord via MIDI or MIDI Omni.
5/ Balance the source audio track to harmonies using the faders in the Harmony Engine. I prefer to use a mic splitter to send my dry mic to the house mixer as well as the computer as a source. I then turn down the source input mix on the harmonizer. This allows the house sound guy to ride the lead vocal and the harmonies are mixed with my keyboard patches
Whenever you play a note / interval / chord on your MIDI keyboard, the plugin will create the equivalent voice(s).
Don't exceed the maximum of 4 notes in a chord, as you can't create more voices - additional MIDI notes could bring confusing results.
Good luck.

Harmonize lead vocal Routing Midi with Antares Harmony Engine Evo

After a long day researching and NOT getting the job done... I need correct midi routing instructions to get Antares Harmony Engine Evo to play 2 different midi harmony tracks: i.e., one on track 7 and one on track 8 wince I couldn't get any of the 'great' harmony presets to work at all. I need explicit instructions on what to click on and where it is without leaving out assumed steps. Thanks!

Adding this: PLEASE and THANK YOU... anybody who knows anything. I've read manuals, searched the net, etc., instructions are not clear or non-existent with many posts saying 'I can't get this function to work!' to no avail so far. I've round no video tutorials. One post suggested 'side chain' as in the Antares Pitch Correct but there is NO side chain menu on my Harmony Engine, and FYI, it disappeared on my APC, from time to time. What's going on here? I'd like to have these harmonies on for Christmas gift. I tried transposing the lead vocal track and ! 'no transpose function' would show up in the usual place. Now I'm trying the midi routing since the harmony engine's default patches didn't work. I've set every knob and button including voice register, i.e. 'soprano' in this case, etc. following the small manual. There's got to be a way as this program has won many awards, so someone is getting it to work. Please RSVP... Thank you and happy holidays!

Set up midi notes input for plugin like Harmony engine evo

Hi!
Can anyone tell me how to set up for midi notes input to a plugin. Lets say you have a keyboard that sends notes info and it works fine to run an instrument in a instrument channel with it. Now, if you want to send this notes to a audio plugin like Harmony engine Evo from Antares that resides in a audio channel, how do you do it? It seems like the only midi you can get thru is controller messenges and thats not of any help to create harmonies from midi chord.

I think this is the standard chat about getting those tracks in the autoload to get the instrument to sound, as in getting the QT instruments to sound when they play MIDI on those tracks...
For those who posted.. A couple of tips -
1) Read the manual about audio instruments
2) Check out David's thread called Troubleshooting tips for new users or something like that. I'm sure he will correct me.
If you still can't get it to happen, let us know. In general, the Logic EXS sounds will be better that the QT sounds, so you might as well ignore them really.
Best, Fred

How do I use a bluetooth headset with garageband?

How do I use a bluetooth headset with garageband? I can't get it to work after many tries.

I can pair the headphones with the computer but the sound from GB is distorted and muffled. I can barely hear it. The set works with iTunes, but not with GarageBand.

Anyone who has used this mixer before please help!!!

How do I use my controller board with garageband?

I have an Edirol PCR-30 controller board which I use w/ garageband 3.x. So far I've only been using it as a keyboard and not as a tool. What I mean is it has all these knobs and sliders but I have no idea how to get them integrated with GarageBand.
Can anyone explain this process?

Is there any way to use the Korg Kaossilator Pro with Garageband 6.0.5?

I'm getting pretty decent at working around with the newest version of Garageband. I've gotten my Akai MPK Mini (usb/midi keyboard) to work by adjusting a few preferences here and there, but for the last week I have been trying and trying to get my Korg Kaossilator Pro to hook up MIDI with Garageband. I understand if the program/software isn't as advanced as Logic or Ableton (be getting those soon!) If anybody could help me it would be MUCH appreciated
P.S. if anybody is having troubles with exporting the AIFF/WAV/MP3 audio files I could give you a bit of help. I have figured out how to correctly export the audio loops and sounds that I have made from my Kaossilator Pro into Garageband! It is quite simple actually and is ALOT easier than you would think. Following the tempo/pitch for your song w/ these WAV/AIFF files is really easy too! I have made almost 4 songs now just using samples and loops from my Kaossilator Pro. I just would like to know if anybody has found out how to use it MIDI w/ Garageband? It would REALLY help me out Thanks!

yeeeeah thats what i've been figuring out for the last 12 hours haha. kinda've a pain but hey it works out. u can still throw some pretty cool effects and what not. Even with MIDI cables running from my kaoss pro into my mac doesn't work. i can transfer the loops I make on my kaoss pro to the editor on my comp, then transfer those files to GB then go from there. It ***** there isn't a way to hook it in and sync it w/ GB so you can hit record then start jamming on the kaoss pro. Thanks for the response though!

Problem with GarageBand for iOS 6/7 Iphone 3gs / 4

Problem with GarageBand for iOS 6/7 Iphone 3gs / 4
Hello,
On February 16, bought the GarageBand for iOS which was free and so I find and install it on my 3GS .
Take the demo: Curtain Call Demo
and within the instruments :
audio Recorder
Sampler
Smart Drums
Smart Strings
Smart Bass
Smart Keyboard
Smart Guitar
Keyboard
Drums
Guitar Amp
1.4.1 is the latest version for ios 6.
Configure my AppleID on a Iphone 4 and install the program , the version I have the Iphone 4 is the orange ( different from 3gs ) icon and put it on the AppStore : ios 2.0.1 for ios7.
With these instruments :
audio Recorder
Sampler ( to download the instrument )
Smart Drums ( to download the instrument )
Smart Strings (Download the instrument )
Smart Bass ( to download the instrument )
Smart Keyboard ( to download the instrument )
Smart Guitar
Keyboard
Drums
Guitar Amp ( to download the instrument )
and if I give what I need to restore tells me if I bought it I did not restore anything and tells me to buy :
Complete collection of GarageBand instruments and sound at a price of : € 4.49
As they are 2 different versions ? More than anything I say because I have to pay for the instruments in the 2.0.1 version of the Iphone 4 ... ?
And besides not wearing demo Demo Curtain Call : (
GarageBand 1.x If you are upgrading it using iTunes on a Mac or PC, you can restore the original collection of instruments and sounds. There is no need to buy this collection. Press "You've already purchased?" When displayed on iPhone, iPad or iPod touch.
this puts on the AppStore but I have tried to restore as I wrote above, and does not work. There is nothing to restore.
regards

I've been having the same problem. However, I believe my problem is due to the 3G issues I've been having. I don't have internet access even when the 3G symbol appears, so probably my iphone keeps trying to connect to the network and has its battery drained! Have you been having the same issue?

Only the red light turning on and off at the screnn of the MBPro and on my Apogee GIO (Guitar Interface Midi) switch button but the effect wha wha won't work.
HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND MY ENGLISH

Pancenter...
Yes... but I have come across some setups that came with a native SL (and even one Lion!) installation.. that somehow had a corrupted or older Prokit installed for some unknown reason... and given it's a quick fix to try.. I thought I'd mention it..
I frankly don't think it is entirely a Prokit issue itself, but it wouldn't do any harm to try and install v7 just in case it is part of the problem...
+1 on the UAD stuff....
Also, at the time it crashed... according to the logs...the OP was running Ableton Live at the same time, presumably rewired with Logic... so add all that together with UAD plugins... and that's quite a load on the system...
Finally in thread 32 there is a weird exception msg relating to the Trash2 plugin.. that I haven't seen before...
Thread 32:
0   libSystem.B.dylib
0x94c29afa mach_msg_trap + 10
1   libSystem.B.dylib
0x94c2a267 mach_msg + 68

0x94c57259 _pthread_start + 345
4   libSystem.B.dylib
0x94c570de thread_start + 34
That might be nothing... but as i said, I haven't seen that one before and given what else is going on.. it might be involved too... or nothing to do with that at all!

When I go to google on firefox and search for a topic, I try to open a website and another website (morsearch, clickkick, etc) will open up instead into a new search engine with the same topic . What is this?

I go to google. I type in "plants". A lot of sites will pop up in google. I click on a site (does not matter which usually). The site will then start to switch to a new url from (click kick, morsearch, etc) turning into a new search engine with the same topic and more options. I never get to the page I want unless I type the url directly into the address box. It always comes back with a search engine. So far I have found this only happens while starting in a search engine. When I get into the actual page, everything is fine. I am using McAfee for security and it hasn't caught a virus or anything yet. Help please! Thanks!

How to use old "Apple Loops for Soundtrack" with Garageband

Since Soundtrack (was part of FinalCut Express HD) doesn't work anymore (since some ProKit framework update) and was not part of the FinalCut Express 4 upgrade I used Garageband for sound creation and editing. But I missed some good loops from the old Soundtrack.
The Apple Loops for Soundtrack were still sitting on my harddisk but Garageband didn't recognize them in the Loop-Browser. Looking at the structure I found the Search Index files (/Library/Audio/Apple Loop Index/). I have two there, one for Garageband and another for iLife Sound Effects. Both are interpreted by Garageband. But no third for the old Soundtrack Loops. So I had a look at the Sound Loops installer DVD from FinalCut HD and there I found a similar structur and copied the Index file to the location of the two indexes mentioned above. I left the Loops for Soundtrack where they are (also could edit the index file for new locations, but that's a 7.5MB text file) and now Garageband knows their location and also lists the loops at the right categories inside the Loop-Browser.
Maybe that helps someone, even if I didn't find a topic about it here.

Ah.. ok, then never mind. Just didn't find any information about how to use the old soundtrack loops with garageband and so I did some thinking on my own. And if it works that easy, the better it is

Using USB Microphone With GarageBand iPad?

Hi, I have the Samson G-Track USB Microphone and have been using it with GarageBand for iPad (with a powered USB hub) and I was wondering if there is a way to enable "Monitor" so that when I speak into the microphone I can hear myself in the headphones? I have no problem recording with the microphone, I just can't hear myself when I'm recording. There are a few switches on the actual microphone that could control this or it could all be controlled from iPad itself, just looking for anyone who could help with this matter. Thanks!

I'm having the same problem trying to monitor my turntable recording via a USB phono amp connected via a USB hub to the photo connection kit.
Have you had any help with this yet?

How to use Alesis synthesizer with GarageBand

I have a Alesis QS6.1 64 voice expandable synthesizer. I have purchase a MIDI to USB converter cable and attached the synthesizer to my Power Mac G5 system that is running Mac OS X 10.5.5.
The Audio MIDI Setup program on the Macintosh indicates that it successfully identifies the MIDI device.
I want to be able to use the synthesizer to record in GarageBand. However, when I open GarageBand v2.0.2 and play the synthesizer sound comes out of the synthesizer speaker and nothing happens on the computer. There is no indication that GarageBand is responding at all to the synthesizer.
What is needed so that the synthesizer keyboard will work with GarageBand?
