Audition CC Recognizing Mic, but Not Recording

I have a Rode NT1-A mic that I have been using on Adobe CC Mac for sometime now, and up until a couple of days ago I had no issue. When I set up the hardware, it finds the mic. When I navigate back to the Multitrack screen, I am able to select the mic for the track input. However once I hit R and I to record and monitor,  I get absolutely nothing. No metering at all. I go as far as to record something and still, I get utter silence, it's not recording anything. I  am not sure how to fix this, as literally a couple of days ago, I was using this same mic, interface, and XLR to record. I appreciate any/all help.

You haven't said what the interface is, but has the phantom power got switched off? That would stop it working whilst it still appeared as a legitimate source...

  • Imovie recognizing camera, but not recording

    I have a sony HD videocamera. I plug it into my macbook pro with a firewire. Imove recognizes the camera, even rewinds the tape, but does not record. AND the viewing window of Imovie, where I should see the tape being recorded, is BLUE.
    Can anyone help me? Thanks.

    I have the same issue but it just occurred to me that I am switching back and forth between analog and digital tapes and my Sony HDD. I'm going to look at Sony's menu under Standard Set and make sure I'm using the right setting for iLink CONV. It should be off. Check your setting as well. On my Digital camera, I need to turn this on . . .

  • Static between Apogee One and Logic 9...When track is armed but not recordi

    The static only happens when i sing into the mic or strum the guitar. It begins to happen when i have input monitoring enabled or the track armed (R). It slowly creeps up after a few minutes of NOT recording and just having the track armed. I can make multiple passes at recording and it will eventually go away or...i have to quit logic and apogee and restart but if i leave the track armed and not record continuously its back! Its like a terrible crackle and its as loud as the instrument im trying to record.

    I dont have an FTP at this time and i tried uploading to steven slate drums but havnt been on there for a while and wasnt able to ...Too bad apples forum doesnt allow mp3s or wavs

  • Audigy 2zs notebook - Can hear but NOT record effect of Graphic Equalizer

    Dear people,
    Audigy 2zs notebook card, using with sonar-le to record (and also with Audacity).
    I can record all I play with my soft synths, and mic voice, perfectly. Various tracks simultneously.
    Playback is also great.
    I use sonar-le in Asio 2-Mode, and MME and all works good.
    HOWEVER, I bring up the Creative equalizer, and I enable it, it makes a NOTORIOUS difference.. I can enable it while I am recording, before, or after.
    So I record a track as usual, but I enable the equalizer, and I am FINDING-OUT that I can not seem to be able to RECORD the effect of the creative EQUALIZER!
    Even though I can hear it in and out, big difference, the track recorded wave continues to record as if it does not see the equalizer at all.
    I have tried all available inputs and many many things, but I just can not get the eq. effects to RECORD.
    I have two speakers connected to the dongle that attaches to the notebook card... I have also tried using headphones, directly connected to card, and all I can think. I tried also mme mode.
    I also tried audacity and same. Can't get the recording to be like what I hear with the headphones.
    Why would this be? How can I solve the problem?
    Thanks a lot!

    Whoops!? That sequencer/recording application "Cubasis VST 4" comes packaged with Audigy 2ZS Platinum Pro but not with the Notebook soundcard. A similar product Cubasis LE comes with X-Fi Elite Pro.
    I haven't seen any details of the internal layout/architecture of the sound card, but I don't think that would help you in terms of some new configurations for recording.
    In terms of recording capability, since there is only one input port with the NOtebook card, you are of course fairly limited in terms of connectivity, unless you have an external mixer (if you are talking about recording two things at the same time).
    However, the audio quality of the Notebook card is certainly good enough to record very good quality audio with S/N, THD etc. My opinion is that people spend way too much time fussing about specs, noise etc. where in reality, most external transducers (mics, guitars etc.) always limit the recorded quality (unless you have really good professional recording gear and you have a lot of experience.
    I've heard outstanding quality recorded music made on recording gear with much poorer specs than the Notebook card.
    Best thing with your Notebook card is do what you've been doing. Use it and experiment and concentrate on the music generation itself.
    Thanks for the reply!
    I gather that the application may not be downloadable, specially if it is third-party. I do have the Synth effect, though that I can plug into Sonar.. I like the hardware enabled effects, though, specially since my music playing/recording system is a little complex.
    Yes, I do have external hardware mixers, and though there is only the mic/line input, that's not too bad since this card has MANY internal inputs and outputs that I DO USE. All? of my instruments and music is now software based..Only the Mic is external. That's why the hardware synth of the 2zs laptop is so attracti've.. It does not bear on cpu or data... That's why I asked about architecture info orient myself.
    Also, I may be wrong, but I read that many of the hardware capabilities of the 2zs notebook card are no longer there on the newer cards... That effects and other things are now mostly software based? Is that so?...Can I use two cards on the laptop, the 2 zs and the express slot one simultneously and have more inputs/outputs?
    I am still interested in all practical possibilities, and I do like the Creative soundcards.
    The great thig is that you told me that the Eq can not be recorded, so that's very important to me.. I can still record it, though out into a second laptop via the headphone jack. But I will try the VST's I have here first and see how they feel and sound.
    It really amazes me, though, that I can hear the effect, but there's no way to record it.
    Maybe a new driver could do it's
    Thanks and best wishes!

  • How to have a SFC active but not record labour??

    My latest challenge from the shop floor is how to have an SFC still be active without anybody being laboured onto it (Visiprise 4.2)
    We have several processes that require product to be placed in an oven for a long period of time, sometimes several days. Our production staff "sign on" to the SFC whilst they prepare the oven and load it. They then "sign off" and work on something else. When the process is completed someone (not always the same person) "signs on" to the SFC removes the product etc and the "completes" the operation.
    This gives us the actual labour touch time and the actual cycle time , the problem is that when the first operator signs off the SFC it changes it status back to "In Queue" which then show in the WIP reports as being available for work, which it isn't.
    So, is there anyway of signing off the SFC but  not changing status to "In Queue" ?? That way it will not show in the WIP reports as being available for work and will stop our operators getting so confused .
    Thanks for any help that you can give.
    Kev

    Kev,
    In any case you cannot have SFC in work but without any assigned user who is meant performing some actions over that SFC.
    You can create some "dummy" user account and start SFC with that user each time you start heating the unit in the oven. To take the unit out of the oven, the second operator will Labor On against the SFC and perform Complete.
    As another option, you can play with Special operation: create a router of one operation corresponding to the action of heating and use the same resource of the oven; the second step is Return(Next). Each time "dummy" user starts an SFC at the operation, the SFC will be taken out of work from the production router. When SFC is completed here by the second user after Labor On, the SFC should be returned to the next step of production router (though I have not tested this way of disposition).
    Anyway, such "cheating" with the basic functionality will be rather intricate - so you might consider requesting a customization.

  • Can choose 5.1 in Audition CS6 for monitoring, but not in Premiere Pro CS6

    System: Z820, Win 7  Ultimate x64
    Audio: Creative SoundBlaster Recon3D PCIe, Altec Lansing 5.1 speaker system
    SW: Master Collection CS6
    I've been using Premiere Pro CS6 for a while now, but only for stereo video projects. I recently started working on a short film and needed 5.1 Surround Sound as well. I created a 5.1 surround track in Au, and have been able to monitor the sound and surround panning effects in Au during development. Here are the Audio and Channel Mapping settings I used to get my 5.1 to work so I could monitor it:
    As can be seen, I've chosen the default MME Device Class here, and all seems well. I have 6 channels identified and mapped to the right corners. I've also confirmed my Master Track in Au is 5.1 Surround. I exported a 5.1 WAV and imported it into Pr, into a 5.1 surround session, confirming that both the track where the WAV file landed and the Master are both 6 channels (and although the order is displayed differently, the content correctly mapped from Au into Pr).
    Now, my fun began. When I monitor the audio in Pr, I hear only Stereo. So, I check my channel mapping in Pr, as shown below:
    As can be seen here as well, I've chosen the 'default' Premiere Pro WDM Sound. I've learned that WDM is a newer version of MME and encapsulates all the functionality of MME. I'm not sure why Au uses MME and Pr uses WDM. However, as shown, with WDM chosen, I only have 2 channels in the mapping dialog to work with, not the 6 I have (and had in Au). Nothing I can do will produce those other four channels.
    As seen in the drop down captured in the above screen grab, I also have ASIO4ALL installed, but that too only shows 2 channels in both Pr and Au. Interestingly, when I hover the mouse over the speaker selection in the ASIO4ALL control panel, it only indicates there are 2 channels (but indicates that there are 6 INPUT channels). The Creative SBZ Series ASIO option is no better, providing only 2 channels.
    So, I was off to check my system settings, which are all shown below:
    As seen above, Windows knows there is 5.1 surround on the system, and the Test available  in the bottom left dialog proves that each speaker is configured and working correctly. Audition also knows there is 5.1 available on my system and uses it correctly as described earlier. However, Pr refuses to recognize this and as a result I am unable to monitor any 5.1 surround projects on my system. If neither Au nor Pr worked, then I'd mark it down as Sound Card or Driver issues, but since one Adobe product uses the system audio correctly, and the other doesn't, it leads me to believe that it is Pr who is at fault.
    So, my question is this: Why won't Pr recognize my 6 output channels like Au does?
    Any advice would be appreciated.
    Cheers,
    Shane

    ryclark, I believe you are correct in that Au uses MME while Pr uses WDM, but both MME and WDM (which, according to the Microsoft specification, encapsulates ALL of the MME capabilities, and expands on them) are 5.1 capable. I can play my export from Au as a 6 channel interleaved WAV file as well as an AC3 conversion  of that same file in both VLC and Windows Media Player and get the same 5.1 channel surround sound field I do from Au.
    After more research, I'm beginning to think this might be a result of the fact that Pr is 64 bit and Au is still 32 bit in CS5.5 and 6. I don't know if Au CC is 64 bit, but if it is, I'd be interested to know if what I am seeing is reproducible in the CC versions of Pr and Au (to eliminate the 64 bit vs 32 bit argument). Some have suggested that perhaps the standard SB driver is only 32 bit, although it 'supports' 64 bit supposedly, but maybe Pr just can't handle that 32 (faux 64) bit driver. A possibility.
    Thanks for the read and response. Seems lots of people are in this boat together. You have recommended elsewhere to use an external audio interface, but just to do 5.1 monitoring (I don't do any live recording to my PC, this if for movie sound post/mixing) sounds pretty clunky. At the least, I think I'd need not only an external audio device with at least 6 channels out, but a receiver to take those outputs, and 6 new audio speakers to connect to that AVR. I currently use my computer's soundcard, as you know, and your standard 5.1 powered computer speaker system attached to that. Not the best, I know, but at this point, I'm just going for surround, but THX, so it is sufficient ;-).
    Cheers,

  • My mic is not recording my voice. I tried using Skype and another recording app and there is only static.

    The mic on my ipad2 is not picking up my voice. I tried Skype and quick memo and all that records is static.

    Dorothy-
    It sounds like you have an internal problem with your iPad.  It could be a loose microphone connection.
    The only thing I can think of that might help, is to reset (reboot) the iPad.  Hold both the Home and Sleep button for several seconds until the Apple logo appears.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" arrow.  The iPad will restart after a couple of minutes.  Resetting this way will not hurt anything, and sometimes clears up mysterious problems.
    I suspect this will not correct your problem, but is worth a try.  You probably need to show it to an Apple Store Genius.  You may get a new iPad on the spot.
    If there is no Apple Store near you, search for an Apple Authorized Repair Center.  There may be one in your city.  In the US, <United States>.  Outside the US, <http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1434>.

  • Allowing camera access, but, not recording

    When accessing my Flex 4.5 LCCS application from the web browser,
    I receive the Flash Player Settings popup.
    Camera and Microphone access.
    "local is requesting access to your camera and microphone, if you click allow you may be recorded".
    I click allow, but, the microphone is not active, the progress slider never moves.
    When I run this application from the debugger, it works just fine, I can see the progress slider move according to my
    speaking into the microphone.
    FlashPlayer 10.1 on the OSX Snow Leopard.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Can you share your code. I dont see a problem at our end, and would need more information to help you.

  • MacBook recognizing harddrive but not starting up

    I've tried using disk utility, tried to boot from disk, but still get same results... It gets to the Apple with the grey pinwheel, but it just keeps on spinning... any suggestions?

    yes i have done all of that, the harddrive shows up but stays on the initial loading screen...
    I tried the fsck but when i got the the command screen i wasn't able to type anything... i went into the startup disk and selected terminal and tried it there, but nothing happened...
    this is the second time in 2 months this has happened, last time the harddrive did not mount though and i had to have it replaced... i'm wondering if i just have a faulty computer... I've had a lot of problems with my firmware, optical drive and harddrive... yet when i call apple they tell me they can't help me... I've had to go through my school's tech building for all my repairs... I've never dropped it, spilled anything on it, or harmed it in any way... yet it always seems to have some problem... any other suggestions???

  • Superdrive recognizing CDs but not recognizing DVD-Rs and rejects them

    Nick,Here's a couple of things to try:
    Update to 10.4.7 (Use Apple Menu > Software Update).
    Use a drive cleaning disk (The tolerances for DVDs are much tighter than CDs so dust could be the culprit).

  • Can hear but not record

    Ok, i've been trying to figure out this problem on my own for a while now and i'm about ready to give up. I've got a guitar plugged into my computer and i can hear it in logic, but when i record no information is recorded. i can record perfectly fine in garage band and then bring it into logic, but that's a pain in the *** and i should be able to do it in the program that i spent so much money on. any ideas guys?
    the track is record-enabled and i am getting signal through it.

    Hi,
    Just a thought...do you have the track record armed in the mixer page,or in the arrange page?
    It must be record-armed in the arrange page for recording to work...weird,but that's how it works.If you have a track selected in the arrange page,make sure it is the one you are going to record onto.
    Cheers

  • Mic not recording at all or loud on Audition Cs6

    My mic is not picking up any sounds at all on my Adobe audition Cs6, or sometimes it does record but it's not loud at all unless someone screams into it, does anyone please know how i can fix this? I have an M-audio Fast track and my mic is called a bluebird idk if that helps. So can i make everything go back to normal, where i can record and see that my audition cs6 is actually recording my voice. Thanks

    Well, if it was working previously, then I'd suspect from the symptoms that you should have a careful look at the mic lead for a start - this sounds rather more like a hardware problem than a software one. Initially, the easiest thing to do is to try it with another lead.

  • Is there and ipad app that allows you to record and edit audio, but can record in the background?  This would be to record voiceover auditions/podcasts while reading a script

    Hi wondering if anyone might be able to help me out.  I am an audio engineer and my wife is a voiceover artist.  We just got the ipad thinking she could record her voiceover auditions on the go, but we can't for the life of us figure out how to record audio while reading a script off of her email.
    Looking for an app that:
    Either can record audio while in the background (garageband cannot)
    OR Import text (copy paste I guess?) to read while recording
    The app needs to  be able to edit audio and export or email out an MP3 - by edit audio I mean trim, fades, and move around sections.
    Anyone have any thoughts on how to do this?  I have been looking around the web for answers for hours and can't find any.  Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hi-  I've done a lot of research in this area and actually am just finishing a book on this subject which will soon be in the iBookstore.
    The best app is TwistedWave.  It allows easy editing and recording, and also allows you record while you are in another app (such as a script your agent sent in your email)
    I recommend MiC by Apogee as your microphone, available at the Apple store.
    My book which goes in depth in how to get the best sound as well as how to edit is called:
    iVoiceover
    Super. Simple. Recording.
    I'll post here when it's live in the iBookstore!

    USB or not doesn't matter. People usually have trouble getting the mic working because they use USB cards which are not the default of their systems, so you can try the said fixes, it should work.
    For skype, did you check the Skype settings for where it inputs/outputs? Skype might be trying to use PulseAudio even if you don't have it...
    You can try setting the default device in your asoundrc:
    pcm.!default {
    type hw
    card 0
    ctl.!default {
    type hw
    card 0
    Replace "card 0" with the correct card, like "card 2,1" or "card 1".

  • G60 214 upgraded to XP Pro SP2 all good but microphone not recording

    Hi all,
    just upgraded an HP G60-214 to XP Pro SP2 with much assistance from yourselves for which many thanks ! 
    Getting the Conexant HD 221 sound to work was difficult but is now good but I'm having trouble getting the microphone to work.
    Device manager shows an NVidia driver and says it's working properly but 'Sound Recorder' doesn't record anything and neither does Skype. The volume is set to maximum and it isn't muted.
    Anyone got this to work under XP ? 
    Thanks for looking !  

    Hi
    I have a similar problem. 
    If I use skype, or infact other programs, the microphone seems very unstable. 
    In most of my skype calls I loose the mic at some point or another. during these drops Skype warns me that the mic is very low, but I have not changed any settings. It seems that there is a problem with the integrated mic. Loose connection or something. This is not just with Skype but with other programs where I use the mic. However, there is no problem with hearing the other side of a call. Thus speaker is fine. Tired of this problem as I cant call without having problems. Please help. 
    thanks in advance.
