Can't hear output of external sound module connected with keyboard to logic

Hey all, I have two related questions about midi.
My setup is a macbook, with motu ultralight, and roland sh-32 synthesizer with an evolution mk-225c midi keyboard.
1- when i have recorded (successfully) a midi sequence into logic using the note enter functions of the synth (has no keyboard), I cannot hear the output of the synth (output is from motu-works fine with everything else)-unless I put phones through the output of the synth.When ido this i can hear the mdi sequence i recorded. If I use the keyboard on it's own, hooked up midi out (only) to midi in of motu, I can hear ALL internal (logic) software synths (es1 etc) can hear no problem.
I have tried routing the synth in-outs in audio/midi device selector, and added keyboard as well, to no avail.
2- when I try and record a midi sequence with the synth and use keyboard to play notes, I cannot hear output from logic. Noting that I can hear all output loops, internal synths, audio etc no prob otherwise. I assume I'm doing something wrong and this would be the case with any external synth drum machine etc. I'm banging my head against the wall!
Hope this makes sense, please help someone.
Thanks

1. You have to route the *audio outs* of your SH-32 into your Motu Ultralight and then select the appropriate inputs in Audio Midi Utility (Audio section). In Logic you have to *create an aux* in for those inputs.
2- when I try and record a midi sequence with the synth and use keyboard to play notes, I cannot hear output from logic. Noting that I can hear all output loops, internal synths, audio etc no prob otherwise. I assume I'm doing something wrong and this would be the case with any external synth drum machine etc. I'm banging my head against the wall!
2.You have to connect the external synths to an audio in and route that as above.
...if I understand correctly that you play the Evo and want to hear the SH-32, thru Logic? You have to create an *external instrument* track that outputs Midi to the SH-32. The Evo must also be setup in AM-utility as a controller of course.

Why I can't hear any noise from my earphones connected with my Mac?

If I plug in my Earphones, my MacBook shows that my headphones are connected and I also can control my music with the buttons on my EarPods. However, I cannot hear any noise from them. What is wrong there?
I have already checked everything in the settings and the Midi setup but it still does not work.
What can I do?

Hi ..
You've checked System Preferences?
Open System Preferences > Sound then select the Output tab.
Make sure the correct device is selected.

Using External Sound Modules (Synths) in Logic Express?

Hi all,
I don't have Logic Express yet. I want to know if what I want to do is possible before I purchase. It may sound trivial, but I'm very new to the whole DAW environment. Apparently Garageband can't support my external sound modules so I'm hoping Logic Express will.
To help, please see my hardware midi setup diagram here:

Will I be able to add tracks that will play the external sound devices like the Wavestation and JD-990? Can you change the sounds through Logic? To what extent can I use my external sound modules?
Thanks all,
-Greg

Hi,
1st: Yes, Logic Express has "external MIDI" tracks that function similar to the "software instrument" tracks but trigger external instruments.
2nd: But: To setup these tracks, especially with more than one device, needs some experience with MIDI, the channels, patch selection via MIDI etc. The real downside is you have to find out which commands you need to "tell" your devices to change sounds and these things. Since there is no standard command for this, you'll have to look it up in your devices manual and use the MSB/LSB Values- which you have to enter manually. However, once you found it out, you can save these things as templates and use them in the future. So yes, it is very possible, but expect some learning curve.
3rd: You can use your sound modules to their full extent. Logic features a mighty MIDI environment setup once you learned how to use it.

External sound module

Is it possible to connect an external sound module to iMac/Garageband so as not to use the quicktime software sounds?
iMac Mac OS X (10.4.5)

I don't understand that question! GB has midi input, but that doesn't help if you want to record the audio output of the sound module.
How would you do that? I don't know if MidiO is functional in the record mode - then you could just record the sound from the module while it is triggered by the midi out. If not, I'd record it in the background to an audio editor while playing back the GB file and later import that audio.
But as I said, that's theoretical reasoning, since I haven't used MidiO. MyMac should know more.

Just installed iOS 5 and my phone does not ring and i can't hear my keys stroke sounds

just installed iOS 5 and my phone does not ring and i can't hear my keys stroke sounds is there any solution to this problem

If KiltedTim is correct I agree with him. If the phone is not hacked try temporarily disabling your antivirus and firewall that may be blocking access to gs.apple.com. See also this article from Apple: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error3194

Other than iMovie, GB always incorporates the audio files into the GB package. So just save or move the GB project to the external drive, and you're done - anything you import, edit or record will be saved to the external drive.

Can I create a home network withous dsl connection with airport express

can I create a home network without dsl connection with airport express?
So it means I can't connect to my HP Airprint/Wireless printer without exretnal connection through ISP?? Just need to print from my Mac and iphone. I have Vodafone Prepaid connection, which is directly connected to my Mac. Does that make an internal network possible?

You have to set up the Air Port with an internet connection to set up a network. Do you have a modem? If yes you can set up the network.

I don't want other computers connect with my computer, I don't want sharing my macbook pro, so how I can protect my computer and avoid other people connect with my computers

As long as you do not enable Sharing of any kind (System Preferences > Sharing) no other computer can connect with yours. Also make sure you have your wireless network protected with a WPA2 password.
That's all I can suggest without knowing what OS version you are running (you are not running iOS as that is for iDevices).

How can we find the hostname of the devices connected with the interfaces of switch?

how can we find the hostname of the devices connected with the interfaces of switch ? I have tried mac address and ARP, there are lot of servers connected with the switch having multiples LAN cards. So mac table shows the mac of physical machine as well as virtual machines. But i want to know only the physical machines. Is there any other method to find out the IP address, hostname of the physical machines only?

Hello Leo Laohoo
Thanks for this information
In our network most of the Servers are not of Cisco. Some of them are Vmware machines, some are Hyper V machines, etc.
Does IP device tracking show us only the IP addresses of the Physical Machines of the Vmware Server not of Virtual Machines?

Can't hear phone calls/button sounds or use speaker phone lg extravert

I tried to make a phone call but can't hear any ringing, the call goes through but nothing happens. My volume for the earpiece is at maximum and so is the main volume on my phone, I can't hear the button sounds either. If I hit the play button, I can hear the ringtone it plays for volume check and it will also play the power up and power down tones. I tried to use speaker phone, but when I touch the button it won't work. I took the battery out and that did not help at all. I also reset my phone, and that also did not help. I checked my alarm setting since I use that frequently and it works just fine too. I am extremely unhappy because I had this phone replaced in August because the camera stopped working and now it looks like I'll have to do it again but out of warranty.

@ceasonly
I'm glad you still have some way to hear the audio on your phone, but let's get that speaker working! The most common reason for the phone's sound to stop working would be the switch on the side has been nudged accidently. Try to enable then disable Silent Mode http://bit.ly/Xhs40k to get the volume working again. Also, try to simply restart your iPhone by holding the power switch and home button together for 10 seconds. Nothing gets erased but it helps cleat out any temporary glitch your phone may experience.
If you're still having trouble, the next best step would be to reset the phone's settings http://bit.ly/HWRbPl. This does erase information from your phone, so make sure to back up http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766 your iPhone information first.
Keep me posted if you continue to have audio trouble.

Can x-fi output 44100Hz PCM sound over spdif connectio

Can the x-fi platinum output 4400Hz PCM sound over the optical/coaxial connections? Or can it only do 48kHz and 96kHz?
Because if i play a flac file that is 4400Hz my yamaha rx-v700 receiver says its getting 48kHz.
When I play 48kHz my receiver says its getting 48kHz.
When I play 96kHz my receiver says its getting 96kHz.
So im wondering if the x-fi is limited to outputting only 48 or 96kHz over spdif connections.
Because I can see other sound cards like auzentech says this regarding spdif output for their cards: Supports 44. kHz / 48kHz / 96kHz S/PDIF Output through both Coaxial RCA and Optical Toslink

In Bit-matched mode, samplerate is set by the audio source automatically.
WMP and CMSP don't change the master clock (at least in my case), the sampling rate is auto-detected only when I use KS or ASIO output plugins with foobar2000.
Maybe the bit-matched mode works only when kmixer is bypassed (though, I've seen same problems mentioned w/ X-Fi + asio4all drivers in foobar)?
Here is the description for bit-matched mode.

I updated my iPad 4 with the new iOS7 and since then Skype started problem and now email i.e, yahoo as well. I can hear people on Skype but they can't hear me though it was working fine with old version. Is any one else having same problem?

I recently purchased iPad 4 and it is only one month old. I updated with iOS 7 and next day got problem with Skype and yahoo mails. People can't hear me on Skype though I can hear them clearly. I was replying yahoo mails quite nicely and now as I start typing the iPad turns black and have to open it again. Is there any one else facing the same problem? I was thinking to go to apple shop for support? Any suggestions?

1) This is because of software version 1.1. See this
thread for some options as to how to go back to 1.0,
which will correct the problem...

2) This tends to happen after videos. Give the iPod a
minute or two to readjust. It should now be more
accurate.
3) This?
iPod shows a folder icon with exclamation
point
4) Restore the iPod
5) Try these...
iPod Only Shows An Apple Logo and Will Not Start
Up
iPod Only Shows An Apple Logo
I think 3,4, and 5 are related. Try the options I
posted for each one.

I just noticed that one of the restore methods you posted was to put it into Disk Mode First rather than just use the resstore straight off, I Have tried that and seems to have solved the problem, If it has thank you. previously I have only tried just restoring it skipping this extra step. Hope my iPod stays healthy, if it doesnt its a warrenty job me thinks any way thanks again
