Audio output from a different connector on soundcard ?

hey there!
the lime green connector on my onboard soundcard (ALC 888) is somehow broken, i get sound only through one speaker. so in windows xp i just put the plug of my 2.1 analog stereo speakers in the light blue jack (normally a line-in connector), setup the driver and have working sound.
in arch i dont get any signal out of that light blue jack, the regular lime green line-out outputs only on one speaker.
how or where can i specify that the line-in jack should be used as line-out ?

No audio output from the orange mini j

Hi all,
I am having problem with my Audigy 4.
Hope you know what I mean, there are three 3.5mm mini jacks
of three different colors: green, black, and orange.
I have noticed that there are audio outputs from the green and black mini jacks only, while the orange mini jack seems to be not working at all.
When I plugged an earphone line to the orange mini jack,
I could hardly hear any sound from it.
Any idea?Message Edited by kwfine on 07--2007:03 AM

The orange jack is the center/subwoofer audio jack. If you're using a 5. speaker system. Make sure you have selected 5. speaker setting in the speaker setup software.

Simultaneous audio output from Ipad and bluetooth ?

Is it possible to have simultaneous audio output from IPAD and a bluetooth speaker? At present I can only get audio from the Bluetooth Speaker and nothing from the IPAD's audio out! My purpose is that my Mom will hold the IPAD to listen to her Audiobooks but my Dad who sits across the room and is hard of hearing needs a speaker close to him, so I need simultaneous audio from both devices.

Use this: http://smile.amazon.com/KOKKIA-A10m-MULTI-STREAM-Transmitter-concurrently/dp/B00 69G1SIC/ref=smi_www_rco2_go_smi_1968491462?_encoding=UTF8&*Version*=1&*entries*= 0&pf_rd_p=1968491462&pf_rd_s=smile-campaign&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_i=B0069G1SIC&pf_rd _m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_r=1N57Q0YT9QW7Y1K596YD and use two Bluetooth speakers for them. The speaker output on the iPad is pretty limited and your mother will probably have a hard time hearing it. Get a BT speaker for both and the above device and they both can listen from whatever location they want (within 40 feet) and get better sound.

Multi channel audio outputs from a laptop such as 5.1 or 7.1

is it possible to get multi channel audio outputs from a laptop such as 5.1 or 7.1 for watching Movies or television while using Windows media Center.

Ok so i order to help anyone who is interested.
The only ironic solution to this problem i found was to use a plugin called xto7 to convert the xml to the old fcp7 format.
i then imported this into premiere pro.
this was then able to export an OMF that when imported into logic 10 that was using the correct 6ch mono setting as separate tracks.
Insane but it works until Apple fixes the incorrect meta data import in FCPX that sets the xml export to the default import that is always surround.
this is the only way i was able to send stems with all the edit points and fades for the sound editor.
If you don't have premiere lying around you maybe able to do it with fcp7 too we just didn't have it in this studio.
Fingers crossed Apple fixes the fcpx xml export.

Analogue Stereo Audio Output from the New Mac Pro

Does anyone know what the analogue stereo audio output from the new Mac Pro is? From the specification, there appears to be a stereo output for headphones, but it is unclear what other audio outputs are available and whether a stand-alone amplifier is required to drive small stereo speakers. Yan (UK)

It is line-level. You will need powered speakers or an amplifier.

Help!! No AUDIO output from iMac through FW to mixing board (zed r16)

With my system stated below, I run an Allen-Heath ZED R16 board via FW. PROBLEM: I get NO Audio output to the R16 when I play iTunes or DVD/CDs in the iMac.
I DO get audio feed when I playback projects from Logic.
I have checked all System Prefs on the iMac (cahnged to the ZED); on Logic (changed to the ZED). I tried all different channels, routing, etc. NOTHING.
Can someone help?

Well, the Allen-Heath support site had the answer... quite surprised and pleased!!
Have to reconfigure the iMac speakers in the Audio/Midi preferences. The details are found in this URL:
http://allen-heath.helpserve.com/index.php?m=knowledgebase&a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=238
The ZED R16 is a great board but certainly not Plug' n Play.

HT4437 using airplay from my ipod touch 4th gen. no audio output from the tv. on the ipod it shows that it is streaming to the apple tv. whats the problem

i get the air play icon on my ipod touch. when i click it the output from my ipod stops but i dont get any audio from my tv. whats the problem?

- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Can MainStage split the audio outputs from a plug-in to separate busses/out

Take EXS24 or Battery 3 or Kontakt as examples
Only one plug-in instantiated but each drum 'hit' sent to separate outputs from within the plug-in/VI and brought into the mix on Audio/Aux channels for separate processing.
It's easy to set up in ProTools and Logic.
(I don't want to send the output of the channel strip to a bus - I know how to do that)
I've read the manual so many times and can't find any answers.
Does MainStage actually allow this routing ?
Thanks for any help
Lee

As far as I know, the only way to do what you want in MainStage is to set up an EXS24 for each output.
The EXS24 does have an option to load with multiple outputs, but I haven't found a way to make it work on my set up.

Audio Output from Mac Mini 2010

Hello -
I purchased a mac mini 2010 this weekend for use as a home theater PC. I've got it connected to an Onkyo tx-sr604 a/v receiver via HDMI. I then pass the HDMI signal from the Onkyo to my hdtv, so I think it just passes through. For audio, I use a surround sound system. And, in case it matters, I have a second tv connected via the DVI output on the mini.
The Onkyo indicates that the audio input signal on the HDMI is PCM Multichannel. When I play movies (e.g., Netfix or DVD) or music (e.g., pandora) on the mini, I don't get any sound on the center channel in multi-channel mode. In direct mode, I only get sound in the front left and right speakers. I'd like to have normal surround sound.
Is there not a way to get 5.1 surround sound from the mini? Or, am I missing a set up or something? If I connect my receiver to the mini with the digital audio output, will I then receive digital audio?
Thanks.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
Mike it is my understanding that if you want 5.1 Surround sound that you must connect the mini directly to the SS system and not pass the audio signal through another device.

Simultanious audio output from both mini Displayport and Audio Output port?

Hey guys,
I was wondering if someone who already has audio+video output through the mini displayport set up can be so kind and answer the following questions for me:
Can audio be output simultaniously from 3.5mm audio port as well as the mini displayport? That is, if I output both video and audio to my reciever through the 2010 iMac's mini Diplayport, can i use the standard audio output port to provide line input for a further set of (active) speakers (analog would be fine)?
In the case both outputs CANNOT work simultaniously, which one will work if i have both plugged in? If the mini displayport has higher rank (or priority or what whatever i should call the one that works when both outputs are plugged in), and the reciever it is plugged into is switched off, will audio automatically switch to the standard audio port? Same question goes if the standard audio output port has higher rank/priority?
Many thanks in advance!
Just in case you are wondering why the heck i would wanna do that, here's some background:
I am planning on setting up my new 27' iMac on a 'work' desk in my bedroom, where i can comfortably sit and work on the computer as well as use the beautiful screen as my bedroom TV. Since i also wanna use my mac for all my living room multimedia needs (movies, tv shows, music, etc), i plan on running a long (15m) audio+video HDMI cable all the way up to my reciever in my living room. Furthermore, i am also planning on running a USB cable to the living room (through something of this sort: http://www.coolgear.com/images/171632pro.jpg) plugged in to a usb hub mainly for mouse/keyboard availability in the living room, but also for other things such as external hard drives and so on. The problem is that, apart from having my audio play in the living room, i also want to provide line input to my reference monitors that will be located at the iMac desk and i obviously much prefer i get the line input directly from the mac rather than running a third cable from reciever back to the speakers.

Anyone?
Is that so few people are using the new mini displayport for audio, or did i ask the wrong way?
Help will be greatly appriciated as i need this info in order to plan my purchases!

Selecting audio output from iPhone - bluetooth or dock?

Hi
I have a problem selecting audio output on my iPhone 3GS with my incar system
Set up:
Dension ipod dock connected direct to CD changer port on Radio
Bury Bluetooth hands free device.(CC9060)
My preferred option is to have the Dension play my audio.
However when I turn on the iPod function on the iPhone, the audio defaults to the Bury hands free system and tried to stream the audio via bluetooth which the phone cannot do.
On the bottom right of the screen on the iPhone, I see a speaker icon - I click on this and I get the option to select the iPod Dock or the CC 9060 (Which is the Bury Hands free)
I can select the iPod dock and teh audio plays fine, however, how to I force the iPhone to always use the iPod dock and not the Bury hands free.
From what I can tell, its not the Bury which is forcing teh choice - its the iPhone, but I cannot see anywhere where there is an option to choice the iPod dock as the default audio device.
Any one have any ideas?
Thanks
Glenn

Found a quite probable fix.
I've took my dock station under big lens and noticed a stuck contact -- they are supposed to be somewhat movable. So I pick a real small screwdriver and unstuck the contact.
Issue is apparently gone.

A minor helpful tip - Convertion of TV Tuner audio output from on-board sc to SB Live! 24 bit

Hi guys,
Many of you might had known about it but I just would like to share my tiny knowledge here with those who might has the same problem when they upgrade their on-board sc to SB Li've! 24 bit sc.
If you have a on-borad sound card, and if you decided to but a new SB Li've! 24 bit sc and then you might find that all audio are OK after installing the SB Li've! 24 bit sc except sound/audio from your TV tuner !!! . . the TV sound is MUTED!
Firstly, there is this tiny Audio Cable connected from your TV tuner card to a 4-pin input-jumper somewhere on the motherborad (since it's a on-borad sc, you might not find it on the on-board sc or next to it). Please note that my on-board sc is refering to my On-board Realtek AC97 Audio sc as for my case. You might have a different on-borad sc, but generally the setup is more or less the same.
After installing your SB Li've! 24 bit sc, make sure you re-direct this tiny Audio Cable from TV tuner card to the 4-pin Audio input jumper of you SB Li've! 24 bit sc.
Then, go to your WindowsXp Sound control property, UN-MUTE the Auxiliary.
Then, go to your TV software program to configure the AUDIO SOURCE to Auxiliary.
Tada . . you got the sound/audio from TV. Now. . you can surf the net or do your work while enjoy your TV program at the top of the screen!!
I hope this help!

Latest....
After reinserting the ATI card, I was not able to test before driver installation due to low resolution video.
I tested after installing the latest ATI driver and still had zero SCP issues.
I then uninstalled the original driver from the SB Li've CD and reinstalled the latest driver from filename SB24_WEB64_LB__04_0055
SCP is BACK!
This DOES seem to indicate a major change in the Creative drivers from original issue to current issue that are not in spec.
My SB Li've model # is SB040.
The information from the p7.inf file on my CD is as follows.....
; Apache INF file
; Models : SB030, SB032, SB0399, SB037, SB043, SB040
; Feature : Enhanced (WDM)

Perhaps the Creative team can examine any changes between this driver and the current version to see what's going on.
Hope this helps some of the rest of you out there in SCP City!

Audio Output from Mac Pro not working in XP

I'm trying to make the audio line output of the Mac Pro work in XP. the only sound comes from the motherboard or headphones in front of the computer.
Under audio devices say "realtech HD audio device" This is the Apple mac pro?
How do I turn the audio output on?

I think I resolved this! I had the same issues you have been having for a few months. I am actually running Vista. Here is what I did...
1. While booted to Windows I uninstalled boot camp
2. Re-installed boot camp from Leopard DVD
3. Installed boot camp update 2.1 (downloaded from Apple support, i know this is for XP only, but I updated anyway.)
4. Downloaded the realtek drivers (high definition audio codecs) from http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/
5. DO NOT use the Realtek installer to install the drivers...instead extract the contents to a folder.
6. Go to the device manager, locate the High Definition Audio device and updated the drivers from here (point to the folder where you extracted the drivers).
I now have sound out of the rear jack!! Hope this help someone
Regards,
Blaine

Separate audio output from HDMI

Hi,
I connected my iPad 2 through HDMI to my monitor.
The image is very good but unfortunately, my monitor doesn't have speakers so it cannot play sounds and when I connected iPad to monitor, iPad redirected all it's sound to HDMI.
So is there a way to specify to iPad to play sound on it's speakers or 3.5 mm audio output and play video through HDMI?
Thank you,
Lisur

Is this the adapter you are using?
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD826ZM/A/lightning-digital-av-adapter?fnode=3 a
If it is, then you have next to the HDMI socket also a Lightning socket to which you could connect any audio system with a Lightning connector.
You may have a larger choice of audio systems for the old 30-pin connector, but then there is this solution:

It's your call now...

No audio output from built in audio

I do a lot of music production/recording on my mac, and to do so I use a firewire audio interface as my audio input and output while recording. When the device is not plugged in my mac usually automatically switches to the built in speakers or headphone jack for audio output. Tonight when I was done recording, I unplugged the interface, opened up iTunes, and went to turn the volume up, but what I got was the little pop op graphic of the speaker, with a little crosse out circle (like a no smoking sign). Now under my system preferences, built in audio is no longer listed as an option for output. After rebooting the machine the problem persists. Any thoughts?

You might try resetting the PRAM:

If this does not work then I would run "Repair Permissions" from Disk Utilities.
