Audio Help Needed - Dual G5 1.8

I need a little help. I have a set of speakers plugged into the rear audio port of my G5, and they work great. However, when I also plug a set of headphones into the audio jack on the front panel, I would like the speakers to be disabled. Is there any way to do this?

  • FCP audio help needed

    I am running FCP 5 on a MacBook Pro, and I am having a couple of audio issues that I can't figure out. The first is:
    I am capturing mini DV from a camcorder via firewire. Audio is being captured, and the input levels are moving, but I can't hear it while capturing. The setup says that the speaker is off. How do I turn it on? I can't seem to find it anywhere.
    Problem two: The audio on the tape is stereo, but it is being captured as 2 channel mono. In my capture settings, I have no audio options. They are all greyed out. How do I change them to stereo? Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks, Charles
    mac book pro   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    if you are capturing DV then you can "Preview" the audio from tape during Log and Capture by going to the Capture Settings tab in the Log and Capture window and enabling the Audio --> Preview checkbox
    if you are capturing HDV then this is not an option, you need to connect speakers instead to the camera/deck and preview from source.
    problem two: again, check the Log and Capture window > Capture Settings tab.
    there is a button to the left of the input channel meters ... you can toggle between stereo and dual mono when you press this button. if the picture on the button shows two interlocking circles then it is set to capture the two channels as a stereo pair, if the two circles are separate then it is set to capture the two channels as dual mono
    hope it helps

  • URGENT AUDIO HELP NEEDED!! Suitable audio filters

    I'm in desperate need of knowing what audio filters are good to reduce background noise for a film I'm making. I've got a basic DV camera that picked up a lot of wind the other day and I am trying to minimise the background noise so that I can pick up what people were saying.
    Does anyone know what audio filters on Final Cut Express are suitable for doing this?
    Cheers

    I have never found a way to filter out wind noise, and I don't think it is practicable. I think that the problem is that the frequency in wind noise is similar to the frequencies in most video audio, so you can't filter out the wind noise without damaging the rest of the audio.
    The only solution seems to be to shoot on a windless day, or use a very directional mike, and/or have a wind sock that is effective. (Unless soemone else knows a way.)

  • Need Audio Help - USB External Speakers

    This should be fun!
    Need Audio Help!  My USB external speakers are recognized in Garage Band Preferences, but NOT in System Preferences. (I use the audio interface, US-144 Tascam)
    Which means:
    I can only play my speakers using Garage band and not iTunes.
    They were working in both iTunes and GB many times before.
    I see that others have had problems losing their external speakers after updating their iMac.
    I've called Apple for assistance (no help)
    Changed the order of connections
    I've shut down again, again...
    Help please

    Open System Preferences/Sound and select the USB Speakers as your Output device
    If that doesn't do as you expect, or you need to tweak them, run Utilities/Audio MIDI Setup and select them there then adjust the Format and Volume etc.

    Have you tryed Google ? really.. your question is inrelevant. No need to reply indeed.
    Why do you come here asking this question anyway ? is it becouse you have a MSI gfx card ? and the adapter has nothing to do with this ?
    You think you can come in here yelling.. thinking we have to put up with it and accept your style of posting. This is not a MSI tech center.. it's a user to user center.. Your question has nothing to do with MSI relavant things anyway's.

  • Help needed with Vista 64 Ultimate

    "Help needed with Vista 64 UltimateI I need some help in getting XFI Dolby digital to work
    Okay so i went out and I bought a yamaha 630BL reciever, a digital coaxial s/pdif, and a 3.5mm phono plug to fit perfectly to my XFI Extreme Music
    -The audio plays fine and reports as a PCM stream when I play it normally, but I can't get dolby digital or DTS to enable for some reason eventhough I bought the DDL & DTS Connect Pack for $4.72
    When I click dolby digital li've in DDL it jumps back up to off and has this [The operation was unsuccessful. Please try again or reinstall the application].
    Message Edited by Fuzion64 on 03-06-2009 05:33 AMS/PDIF I/O was enabled under speakers in control panel/sound, but S/PDIF Out function was totally disabled
    once I set this to enabled Dolby and DTS went acti've.
    I also have a question on 5. and Vista 64
    -When I game I normally use headphones in game mode or 2. with my headphones, the reason for this is if I set it on 5. I get sounds coming out of all of the wrong channels.
    Now when I watch movies or listen to music I switch to 5. sound in entertainment mode, but to make this work properly I have to open CMSS-3D. I then change it from xpand to stereo and put the slider at even center for 50%. If I use the default xpand mode the audio is way off coming out of all of the wrong channels.
    How do I make 5. render properly on vista

    We ended up getting iTunes cleanly uninstalled and were able to re-install without issue.  All is now mostly well.
    Peace...

    Unfortunately this is very difficult because the top half of your post, your really the only one that can answer what the setup should be.  The adjustments are made based on the acoustics of your room and how everything sounds noone can really give you info on it because every house, and room has different acoustics.  The walls, insulation, carpet or bare floors, basement or main floor are just some examples of what can make a difference in sound reproduction.   By the way NHT (Now Hear This) are excellent speakers.  For bass and treble, the music I listen too requires a high treble content so I usually have it at 7 out of 10 but my bass is at 4 out of 10.   The sub base should be fine where it is.
    Did your receiver come with an Audessy mic for calibration.  I would use that for a basic setup and go from there I am not sure if on your unit it will do frequecy but I think it did.
    Your volume settings look fine again personal preference there is right or wrong.
    For you listening mode Preset  you should have an auto setting I am at work so it may take a coule of hours for me to get back to you as I have to go through your manual and see what you would set it up with so please bare with me. I will list the info as I read it so it may not be in the order you have it.
    I will have to make a second post since I can't go back and edit this one.

  • Quick help with dual booting

    I have hopped around on different distros and I found that Archlinux would be the best solution for me.  However, I need help with dual booting Archlinux and Vista as I will need Vista around for one program and a game that do not work with any Linux distro that I have tried.  I have not done a text based install before, I have only used newbie distros but I want to move on to Archlinux. 
    I will only need one partition for Vista and one for Arch.  I believe I can achieve the goal of dual booting them by shrinking the vista partition, and then installing Arch in the remaining space and use GRUB to boot the necessary partitions when my laptop is powered on.  This works with Ubuntu, so I assume it shall be the same basic concept with Arch.  I can follow the instructions on installing, and the installation is easier than I had expected it to be.  I have one question, how would I go about using the above technique that I mentioned during the install?  I would like to know how to do it correctly, I cannot risk messing up Vista.  I'm fifteen and my dad would be very frustrated if I did mess up Vista.  I would appreciate some specific instructions, because I really like Arch from what I have read.  I also look forward to being an active member in the community as well if all goes well.

    Welcome!
    Another young one I see! I'm currently 17, however I started using linux when I was 13 (8th grade year).
    You can resize the vista partition by using gparted. You can download the gparted livecd from there website (http://gparted.sourceforge.net/download.php). I do not know specific directions, but it is pretty obvious how to resize, and if you need help you can probably google something like "resize partition gparted". I WARN YOU that you do risk data loss resizing the partition. I don't believe the risk is high, but it still there, so backup any important data that you may have in case something goes wrong!!
    Do you have your own computer that you can experiment on? That might be a safe option than using your dads. I am been fortunate to have hand-me-down systems, but when I was young I made my dad angry quite a few times "experimenting!"
    If your dad's system has enough juice, you may want to consider install arch in a virtual machine to get idea of however thing works. Following the Beginners Guide on the wiki will be you best bet for a successful and well configured machine (http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beginners_Guide). If you really want to play it safe you can even go as far as install windows in a virtual machine, resizing the partition, and installing arch in the same virtual machine.
    I hate to say this, but if you absolutely can not mess up vista, I would advice against installing any other OS and messing with the partition scheme. As whenever you mess with the partitions you run a risk of messing up Vista (or any other os for that matter). If you don't already have your own computer which you can tinker with, it might not be a bad idea to look at getting one. They are becoming cheap, you can build one for about $300-$400USD, or buy one for probably around $400.
    Hope this helps a bit...

  • USB Audio Driver need in Digital Audio playback of iPOD in IUI Mode

    Well I forgot the table-alias, here now with:

    , (SELECT SUB_NAME

    , (SELECT SUB_NAME
    FROM SUBJECTS
    WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID4) AS SUBJECT_NAME4
    FROM COMBINATION C;
    As you need exactly 4 subjects, the columns-solution is just fine I would say.

  • Help needed I have a canon 40D. I am thinking of buying a canon 6D.But not sure that my len

    Hi all help needed I have a canon 40D. I am thinking of buying a canon 6D.
    But not sure that my lenses will work.
    I have a 170mm/ 500mm APO Sigma.
    A 10/20 ex  Sigma   HSM  IF.
    And a 180 APO Sigma Macro or do I have to scrap them and buy others.
    ALL Help will be greatly received. Yours  BRODIE

    In short, I love it. I was going to buy the 5DMark III. After playing with it for a while at my local Fry's store where they put 5DMII, 5DMIII and 6D next to each other, using the same 24-105L lens, I decided to get the 6D and pocket the different for lens later.
    I'm upgrading from the 30D. So I think you'll love it. It's a great camera. I have used 5DMII extensively before (borrowing from a close friend).
    Funny thing is at first I don't really care about the GPS and Wifi much. I thought they're just marketing-gimmick. But once you have it, it is actually really fun and helpful. For example, I can place the 6D on a long "monopod", then use the app on the phone to control the camera to get some unique perspective on some scenes. It's fun and great. GPS is also nice for travel guy like me.

  • Help needed! Raid degraded again!

    Hi!
    Help needed! I hava made bootable RAID with two S-ATAII 250Gb HDD and its not working! Every now and then at bootup I get a message RAID -> DEGRADED... Must be seventh time! Rebuild takes its own time!
    What am I doing wrong!
    T: Ekku
    K8N Neo4 Ultra
    AMD 64 4200+
    2 Gb RAM
    2 x 250 Gb HDD (Maxtor)
    nVidia RAID (in mb)
    P.S. I wery SORRY with my poor language!

    I'm going to blame the nVRAID because I've seen issues with it in the past. If your motherboard has another non-nVidia RAID solution, use that instead. Using the nVidia SATA ports as BASE or JBOD is fine and dandy but RAIDing always had issues. It's not even a driver issue I think it's just instability. Latest drivers and even boxed drivers never helped. Granted, some will report success with their rig. But on a professional level I've seen nForce issues on different motherboards and different hard drives that had RAID disaster stories.
    Good luck and if you don't have another RAID solution, my suggestion would be to buy a dedicated RAID controller card.
