Audition CS6 recognizes MOTU 8Pre but will not record

I've used Audition for several years in a Mac environment with a Presonus Firestudio and not experienced any problems, but I'm now using a PC and a MOTU 8Pre (USB) for recording, and have run into trouble right away.
The 8Pre seems to be set up correctly, with all the current ASIO drivers installed on the PC, and Audition seems to recognize both it and the MOTU Audio Console. However, I can't record anything. I can see/assign all the 8Pre's inputs and I can arm tracks for record, but the track input levels do nothing onscreen, and if I hit "record" and then "stop", not even silence is recorded. There's just nothing on the track. Meanwhile, the input signal is strong on the 8Pre's physical display, and all of my Audio Hardware settings/preferences suggest that everything is OK.
Ideas? Thanks.

I should have checked that, ain't I.
Calling up an old session just now, the transport does indeed move when I tell it to play. When I monitor from the phone jack on the front of the 8pre, I can't hear any output; when I monitor instead from the main outs on the back of it, I can hear a very faint output. It's still unresponsive when I try to record, but it's definitely playing back on the Audition end of things.
I wouldn't be surprised if I just needed to spend more time setting up the 8pre, but if that's the case I figure I should at least be able to record within the DAW, even if I don't get any signal. So I'm not sure.

  • I have a new iPod Classic 160Gb.  i have an iTunes Account, it recognizes my device but will not sync my library of music to my new iPod.  What do I need to do?

    I have a new ipod Classic 160GB.  I already have an Itunes account.  The Itunes account recognizes my device but will not sync my library to this new device.
    What do I need to do?

    Hi Amy2250,
    Have you tried to sync music to the iPod via the iPod subdirectory of iTunes? To do this, plug your iPod into your computer, go into iTunes, click on the iPod tab, click on 'Music' in the iPod subdirectory and select whether you want to sync your whole iTunes library or just selected songs and press sync.
    Alternatively, have you tried manually transferring music onto the iPod using the 'drag and drop' method? To do that, go into iTunes with your iPod connected, click on the iPod tab, in the iTunes iPod Classic subdirectory click on the 'Summary' tab, then tick the box saying 'Manually manage music' and click save. Then, in the same subdirectory click on the 'On this iPod' tab and click on Music. Then, select the songs you want to transfer either in Finder or Windows Explorer, select the songs you want to copy to the iPod and drag them to the blank list in the 'On this iPod' area of iTunes you just opened.
    Good luck,

  • I dropped my mac pro. The disc drive plays but will not record. medium drive error. How hard is it to replace the drive my self. i see screws on the bottom. Could I just order a new internal drive and replace it? Or is it too complicated for the average ?

    I dropped my mac pro. The disc drive plays but will not record. medium drive error. How hard is it to replace the drive my self. i see screws on the bottom. Could I just order a new internal drive and replace it? Or is it too complicated for the average person? Would be cheaper to buy an external drive than to replace internal one? Any advice is appreciated

    How certain are you the superdrive ONLY is at fault?
    That depends on your skill level, if you grew up tearing things apart and putting them together, its absurd how easy it is.
    For some however its too daunting.   On a general skill level for the "average" person its about a 3 out of 10 in difficulty.
    Can you order same? yes.

    Hello @Pistaba1975,
    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
    I have read your post on how the microphone on your notebook is enabled, but will not record any audio on Skype. I would be happy to assist you in this matter!
    Are you able to record audio using a different program on your computer? Were you able to record audio from Skype in the past? 
    In the meantime, I recommend following the steps in this document on Resolving microphone problems (Windows 8). This should help enable the audio-in when using the microphone.
    Additionally, I also suggest following this resource on Microphone Troubleshooter to ensure that your Skype software is communicating the audio being transmitted to your audio-in device.
    Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, as well as the requested information above. I look forward to your reply!

  • ITunes recognizes my iPhone, but will not connect to the iTunes Store

    After having to re-install all the software on my computer, iTunes will recognize my iPhone 4 okay, but will not log into the iTunes Store using a valid user name and password.  I can still log in to the iTunes store on my iPhone, but just not on my computer. I get an error message that says, "We could not complete your iTunes Store request. An unknown error occurred (-50). There was an error in the iTunes Store. Please try again later."  I also conducted the "Run Diagnostics" test for network connectivity tests, device connectivity tests, and device sync tests.  All three tests passed with green lights.  However, I still get the following error message "One moment please, Connecting to the iTunes Store, Loading..." when I highlight the iTunes Store and attempt to log in with no success.  I also disabled the Windows 7 firewall as I did get a previous error message that said iTunes was not enabled in the Windows firewall.  I have my computer configured the same exact way I did before having to reinstall all my programs, and iTunes worked fine.  I've included some of the comments from the diagnostics below...
    Thanks for any advice you can provide.

  • My iTunes recognizes my iPod but will not sync

    I just had my hard drive replaced and all my music was salvaged (thankfully). All of it loaded right back into iTunes. However, when I plug in my iPod, it will charge, but will not sync. I have Windows 7 on my computer and it was working fine before.
    At this point I'm frustrated and have considered using the "Sync with this iTunes Library" feature, which warns that it will erase what's on my iPod, but will presumably upload the library that exists on my computer now, right? If I do that, I shouldn't lose anything because both are the same, but maybe it will now recognize my iPod? Any suggestions?

  • My Macbook Pro will recognize my network but will not connect to the internet

    My macbook will not connect to the internet at home.  It works fine on other networks, but at home it will recognize my network name but says it will not be able to connect to the internet.  This issue just sort of came up randomly.  I have shut the router off (I use Verizon Vios) and reset it and that doesn't work.  The little Wifi status at the top of the screen just has an exclamation point over it.  I haven't changed any of the default network settings.  It just stopped working.  When I take it to work and use their network or free wifi available at stores etc...it connects just fine.  A few weeks ago upgraded my operating system to Mavericks, but it has worked up until this morning.

    Do this. Go to Apple menu / System Preferences / Network.
    In the left column, click Wi-Fi. Next click Assist me, then Assistant. Follow the on screen instructions.

  • Can you use after market charging accessories on the 5s? My 5s recognizes the item but will not charge. I've tried two after market power cords (they work) and 3 adapters I put on my old 4s power cord. Only the Apple cord works.

    I've tried using my sister's after market power cord and it recognizes that an accessory has been plugged in but it won't charge. The cord does charge my sister's 5. I've also purchased 3 adapters and put them on my 4s power cords and the same thing happens. Only the power cord they came with the phone will charge it. Does anyone know if this is a new thing will all
    5s iPhones or just mine?
    Thanks!

    New to iOS 7. Not just your iPhone 5S. There have been several
    injuries and a few deaths due to 3rd party chargers - use the
    supplied charger and cord.

  • Itunes 10.6.1.7 (on windows 7 64 bit) recognizes airport express, but will not connect.

    I've attempted disabling all firewalls (both PC and anti-virus), disabling ipv6, rebooting the airport unit itself, but no luck. I'm not prompted with an error, however, as itunes is attempting to connect the airplay icon turns blue, and when it doesn't connect the icon turns gray again. On a sidenote, my old macbook connects without issue. Any ideas?

    Thx Hackintosh. All software was up to date as of this morning, but I think the issue stemmed from the IP switching in my building. I finanlly stripped the express/utility completely off the box and reinstalled from scratch after doing a factory reset of the airport unit itself... and finally, eureka. Of course, doing this required resetting my apple machines to the updated airport address. I will say that if anyone wants to run both apple and PC machines on the same airport, set up the PC first and then link the apple machine(s) second. Way easier than the other way around.

  • Garage Band hears my audio signal, but will not record it.

    I posted this problem initially with the imprecise heading, "Recording in Garage Band," about midnight last night...so far no response, but it's only 8:00 am. I am almost brand new at the discussion group game as well as being brand new to Garage Band. I had the non-recording problem initially a month or so ago, and aired it in this forum. I got an answer almost immediately, advising me to delete two .plist items and the problem should be cleared up...and as I recall, idid and it was; but a day or so afterward, before I had a chance even to try recording anything, I had a major computer disaster and lost all my saved email, including the directions to the folder containing the offensive .plist gremlins, as well as all my bookmarks and my iPhoto library for the last two years. I'm not really geeky enough to figure this stuff out properly, so I've been reconstructing things pretty much from scratch as best I can.
    I've looked for those .plist artifacts since, hoping I might recognize them if I saw them, but no luck. I've screwed up so much already, that I am loath to delete things when I don't know what they are or even where I'm supposed to look for them.
    Jon Bradley, Cloverdale, Ca.

    The easiest way to find them is simply search your hard drive for "GarageBand", the ".plist" and ".cs" files will show up in the results.

  • My ipad recognizes my home network but will not connect to the internet. When I click on AirPort/preferences at the top of the imac screen it says..."AirPort has a self-assigned ip address and may not connect to the internet".How can I change ip address?

    My ipad recognizes my home network but will not connect to the internet. When I click on AirPort/preferences at the top of the imac screen it says..."AirPort has a self-assigned ip address and may not connect to the internet". If this is the root of the problem,how can I change ip address?
    Ipad will connect no problem to other networks.

    First thing you need I think is to get your iMac connected to the Internet.
    Shut down your iMac and you iPad. Then power off your router. Wait 30 seconds and power up the router.
    After the router indicates that it is connected to the Internet then start up your iMac and see if it connects. If the iMac connects to the Internet then your iPad should too.
    If this power up sequence doesn't work you'll have to dig into the router setup to make sure it is working properly.
