ART Tube MP Studio Problems

I have an ART Tube MP Studio that I use for my preamp when recording into my MacBook, but for some time now it has been useless, because the signal boost is accompanied by insufferable buzzing and humming. I know it's coming from the Tube MP because I have exhausted every other possibility (mic, cords, etc). Any ideas?
I am having a monstrous headache of a time getting a decent mic sound into my Macbook. The ART Tube isn't any good (now), the M-Audio Firewire Solo doesn't give enough of a signal boost to justify its existence (its only advantage is bypassing the crummy sound quality from the Mac's built-in line in). I've downloaded every driver, tweaked ever knob, but I just can't get a good sound. Getting the ART Tube working right would be a great help, but I am open to other inexpensive option. The Blue Snowball? A Tascam USB interface? I just don't know. Please help.

  • X-Fi Fatal1ty PCI Doesn't Work With ART Tube MP Project USB in CUBASE 3

    Hi
    I've got X-Fi with Art Tube MP USB which uses standart Windows USB Audio Device driver. In 'Control panel -> Sound & Audio Devices' I select Output: X-Fi, Input (Rec): USB Audio Device because I need sound output from X-fi and input from USB Audio Device (Art Tube MP).
    In Cubase 3 everything works fine with ASIO Multimedia driver. But latency is?VERY big. If I select 'Creative ASIO' in doesn't work at all. ASIO4ALL, ASIO DirectX Full Duplex doesn't work also.
    My question is how to get things to work. I want to record from ART Tube MP and listen from X-Fi. With LOW latency.

    screw it.. i dunno... bad drivers, that's what i'm accounting it to. Nobody seems to know what the problem is anymore.
    With that said, the card works wonderfully now =D
    Someone on this board mentioned some third party drivers, so I went and found them. I had no troubles installing and have had no troubles with the drivers
    since their installation a few days ago.
    These drivers are not supported nor created by Creative (as far as I know). Use the drivers at your own risk.
    First, go to this address and read up on their drivers and how to install and what not. All the posts you should care about are sticked, so read the stickies!
    http://www.youp-pax.org/forumdisplay.php?fid=3&page=
    I noticed that the links to their drivers are lousy/don't work. Some nice person went and hosted all their files on a different site.
    http://hosted.filefront.com/robertmc84
    Be very cautious when downloading their drivers from filefront. The host has numerous old versions up and the file names aren't always 00% copy/paste from
    the YouP Pax site, so be certain you have the right file before downloading/installing.
    READ THE STICKIED INSTALLATION GUIDE! Same thing as with the installing Creatives' drivers, if you don't completely uninstall former drivers, bad things happen.

  • No sound from internal speakers or headphones when using ART Tube interface

    Hi - can anyone help with this...
    I have no sound fromthe internal speakers or headphones when using my new ART Tube USB interface - I get a nice loud recording level from the ART but cant monitor - in Logic 7.2
    Audio hardware interface in logic 7.2 is set to USB Codec - just like the ART manual states
    And the SOUND control panel is set to speakers/headphones
    But no love...
    Any comments welcomed
    Si2

    By default, OSX will only let you have one interface active at any one time - so if you specify the ART as your interface to get sound in, you don't have access to your regular interface to listen to it.
    But there is a workaround - open the Audio/MIDI Setup utility, create a new "Aggregate Device", and add both your required audio interfaces to it.
    Now, back in Logic, select the aggregate device you created as the audio device, and now all your inputs and outputs from both interfaces are available - the aggregate device acts as one big interface containing both your hardware interfaces.

  • Running ART Tube MP project series on mac

    Hi,
    I've recently purchased the ART Tube MP project series but I can't get my mac to recognize it as an audio interface. I've connected an xlr mic to the input and a 1/4 inch jack to the output, which is then running into the line in of my macbook pro (via a mini jack adapter). If anyone can tell me where I'm going wrong I'd much appreciate it.
    Thanks.

  • AppleScript Studio Problems...

    Steve,
    This is the message I sent earlier with new findings:
    After I deleted "Smart Crash Reports.bundle" in /Library/InputManagers/, I rebooted, went to AS Studio to see if there were any problems, and guess what ?
    The Debugger started working. It's been broken as long as I can remember. Every time I've wanted to learn how to work with AS Studio since it came out, the Debugger has never worked, and I always ended up moving on to something else.
    This is awesome...

    Hi Bill.
    Make sure you're building a debug version of the project in order for breakpoints to work. In Xcode you set this with Project > Set Active Build Configuration > Debug .
    This was the very first thing I checked the other day when I started trying to learn AS Studio in earnest.
    Also I don't think those messages you are seeing about Smart Crash REports.bundle actually indicate that the app has crashed; it's just reporting that it can't load this bundle for some reason, and then proceeding anyway - I don't see anything that indicates your app has crashed.
    I read a long article at : http://daringfireball.net/2006/01/smartcrashreports
    and came away without a real solution. It was close to 3 am so I was barely awake, but came away confused as to what the solution was. I had used Unsanity's products particularly the menu product, but they caused too many problems with Quickeys and 4th Dimension. After talking to the people that write Quickeys, I disabled all their stuff and everything started working fine with Quickeys and 4D. They are far more important for me, that the Unsanity stuff.
    I agree with the Daring Fireball article, and am annoyed that Unsanity patches the OS without asking for permission. I won't buy their products any more.
    That bundle is something that certain third-party applications install which attempts to email crash reports for their apps back to their authors, rather than to Apple. I don't know what app you might have installed that included this but it would probably be safe to remove the bundle. (Double clicking on it wouldn't do anything; it's not intended to be double clicked; it just sits there and waits to be loaded.)
    After I wrote the original message I realized that it wasn't double clickable, but by then it was too late. I think it was probably Unsanity's APE, or FruitMenu.If you look at /Library/InputManagers/ there's an "info" file, and a "Smart Crash Reports.bundle". I just deleted both of them, if it causes a problem I'll copy them from another machine that doesn't have it. I'm not sure but I believe they patch the original one from Apple. I'm not sure if that is correct?

  • Financial Reporting Studio Problem...

    Hi John,
    that my Variance problem was solved with the help of the last post, I created one Report in Financial Reporting Studio. But when I want to Web Preview for the report in Workspace I get the following message-
    *5200: Error executing query: Unable to obtain a connection to Hyperion Essbase. If this problem persists, please contact your administrator.com.hyperion.planning.olap.NoAvailableOlapConnectionsException*
    Then I thought of trying Print Preview which threw the same error.
    What needs to be done John?? I restarted all the services and Essabse as well. But nothing helped.
    Please advise.

    John. I am sorry to ask this, a different question. Actually I just faced a severe problem while trying that report issue. I give the details below-
    I created one group and assigned it only Dimension Editor and Application Creator roles. And further created one user and put it into that group.
    Next created one application(*TestApp*) in Workspace yesterday. Now as I faced the FR issue and according to you I created one application(*app*) in Workspace, this time with admin(as you told) and tried to create report and eventually failed which wrote in one but last post.
    Then according to your last reply I restarted the services and and entered the Workspace with the new user. But here comes the problem, I can't see my application that I had created under this user. All I could see is the application that I had created using admin(for trying the FR issue).
    I mean... I am very confused.... created one application with a new user, but it got replaced by an application that was created with admin, and with a different name.
    But I still can see the database in EAS and it is intact. And when right click on the TestApp and see the User/group access, I can see admin and that new user.
    John pls don't get angry... I know it's a different issue.
    Any kind of help would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

  • Any fix for random art and song order problems after adding new music?

    If I sync my touch with itunes as a restore, all cover art, albums and playlists are correct. Once I add anything new or make a change and re-sync, random cover art is missing and random songs are in the wrong order. The only way to fix the problems is through a complete restore. Has anyone else had this problem or figured out a fix? I am using the latest itunes on a PC with XP.

    A few issues, but sorry let me try to understand.
    Adding new music, 'XXXX's iPod cannot be written or read'' can you let me know the number. most likely music format is not iPod Compatible like HE-AAC.
    started skipping songs  - these are normally due to corrupted ID3 tags, try converting them -File-> Advance -> IPOD version or use MP3 validator to fix all songs in the library. (My Apologies, only work for MP3 music that skipped)
    As for item 2, you can try Hard Reset if you like to download MP3 validator.
    After charging till full charge, at least 2 hours (preferably 4 hours)
    Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you dont see the red mark when you do the  next step
    Reset the iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs till the Apple Logo comes ON
    Then release the buttons
    Select your preferred language.
    Here is the Apple support Article on the 5Rs

  • Installing Soundtrack 3 / Logic Studio Problems.

    I just upgraded Logic, from 9 to Studio. When I installed the package, Compressor was 'greyed' out. Soundtrack Pro 3 won't work without it, so I bought Compressor from the App store. Now I have Compressor installed but Soundtrack 3 still doesn't work. Re-installed but no success. Any suggestions and solutions would be most appreciated as I REALLY need Soundtrack Pro 3 for the project I am working on. Thanks!

    You need to contact Apple support and explain the situation accurately and carefully. That's what I did and they reimbursed me for the Compressor I purchased and walked me through the solution. It was a while back now; I think there was a version of Compressor I downloaded for fress based on their suggestions... Anyway,everything works fine and although Apple DOE NOT like to give refunds if you are clear about the issue they will know exactly what the problem is and will help out.

  • X6 MP3 art tag image quality problem

    I'm willing to accept this could be an issue with my media software transferring the MP3s (MediaMonkey - an otherwise excellent application), so I'm asking this question on their forum too.
    I've recently synced a load of MP3 files from my main PC to my X6 Mass Storage via USB.
    For some reason, most of the albums have had the album art images reduced in size enormously so they look really blurred and ugly.
    Is this a known issue with the X6, or perhaps a problem with my media software?

    its a problem with the images you tagged. They should be at least 400x400 to show the way they do on psycho's picture.

  • DB Studio problem

    Hi All,
    I am trying to connect to my database through DB Studio. When I provide the user name and password, after clicking OK, nothing is happening. I am connecting with the SYS user and the user is having the privillage of SELECT ANY DICTIONARY.
    Can you please guide me to connect with DB Studio. My database is running on Windows 2000 and the database version is 9.2.0.8
    Thanks in advance
    Himanshu

    This isn't going to work as well as I had thought.
    That is correct that the Name and Value fields come back as XmlNode arrays. Each XmlNode array contains two XmlNode objects (or one if you received a null value from the db). One object contains the atrributes and one contains the value. I had planned on going into the ColumnValueType Value field and pulling the text of the 2nd XmlNode object.
    Now here is the problem:
    For every column you select you get a ColumnValueType object. Rather than being contained in some type of "Row" parent object, each column sits in the root of your results. For example, in the query I am using I am asking for the AlertingName and DnOrPattern columns of the NumPlan table. My results come back like this (simplified):
    AlertingName
    John Doe
    DnOrPattern
    1234
    With the data in this format, I can't just do a foreach loop and iterate over the ColumnValueType objects.

  • Illustrator CS6 and Cut Studio problems

    When I cut with Cut Studio from Illustrator CS6, my stuff may or may not cut completely.  A lot of the time it stops midstream then i have to restart it cut again.  Very time consuming and not profitable either.  Anyone else with this problem and can it be fixed?

    I have a Imac g5 only couple years old now, but had the issue right off the bat.  Mac OSX Lion 10.7.5    Roland Camm-1 Pro  GX 500     Cut studio
    As far as artwork goes, it is random when it runs.  old existing files, brand new files, might be a graphic or verbage.  Doesn't seem to care.  The only thing i have noticed is most of the files i get from a customer (which isn't often) runs without a hitch.
    I feel CS6 is not up to snuff as a program.  CS2   and AI 8  were awesome but won't run on my new machine.  would you suggest i try to install Cut Studio again, check on the driver?
    thanks

  • Flash Player 11 and You Tube screen size problems

    When on "You Tube" flash player gives the choice of the use of thre sizes of screens to view the vedios. With the older version of Flash player I was able to use all three od the different size to view. Now That I have Version 11 Flash player the small screen view is good, but If I take it to the medium size the screen stays the same size as the small screen but moves to the center of the screen. The full screen selection gos to black and the sound goes in and out at a fast pace. Is there any way that I can fix this problem?

  • SAP NW Developer Studio: Problem with Import Development Configuration(DC)

    Dear Experts!
    I have a problem with SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio when import a Developement Configuration.
    I create a Software Component(SC) in SLD( with Dependencies:  SAP J2EE Engine, SAP Java Tech Service, DI BUILD TOOL, Then I create a Development Configuration(DC) and add this SC.
    On SAP Netweaver  Developer  Studio I import this DC. I see on the Component Browser My DC include: my software conponent , and SCs: SAPJEE, SAP_BUILDT, SAP_JTECHS but in DC detail there are nothing. So I cannot create the Development Component
    Please help me resolve this issue.
    Thanks all

    Hi,
    you cannot see the DCs (for SCs like SAPBUILDT, JTECHS, JEE, etc) in NWDS, because there is nothing imported into the buildspace(s) DEV (and cons).
    You need to go to the http://<host>:<port>/devinf -- CMS webui, to the Transport Studio, go to the Check-in tab, and check-in all the software you can see in the queue (which you have also added previously in SLD for your software) . This is a quick process, you'll see your software moved to the Development tab and waiting for import.
    Import all the components. This can take longer. As soon as all of them finished, you can open up your NWDS again. In order to see the DCs this time when you expand the corresponding node, you need to reimport (but at least) update the development configuration  (you do it in NWDS in the context menu of the development config in question).
