Can't hear the amps in garageband

Hi,
I'm new at garageband. I use version 10.0.3
I recently bought a Focusrite Saffire 6 Usb interface. I have external speakers and I'm trying to use the interface to play my base and guitar through the garageband amps.
The trouble is, it only works a small percentage of the time. I can't seem to activate the amps. In the preference section I've chosen my interface as both input and output. I've read in other post about turning monitoring on but I don't see where in the program that option is available.
Occasionally it has worked, usually when i've created a new track,  but I cannot figure out what I did right.
How can I hear the amp sound?

  • I'm trying to record audio into my iPad2 using GarageBand and an iRig, but I can't monitor my tracks at the same time as recording, meaning if I lay down a drum track and attempt to record guitar, I can't hear the drums while recording. Thoughts?

    Hi, I have this exact same problem. I haven't been using an iRig, just a cheap USB-jack cable. I managed to do this with the first cable I bought, but since it broke I've been unable to find a replacement that allows me to hear the drums while recording. DId you manage to get over this issue? If so I would really like to know how. Thanks and best wishes.

    I want to record a podcast using my Mackie mixer and have the mix sent to Garageband through the USB I/0, but it doesn't seem to give me the option.
    i think the first thing to do would be to check with Mackie support. two things noted on Mackie's website:
    DRIVERS::
    No Driver Required for Supported Windows (PC) or OS X (Mac) Versions
    (note "supported")
    and
    For the Mac::
    Mac OS X 10.4.11 – 10.7.1
    ask if their firmware currently supports OS X 10.9.x

  • Every time I make a call or I'm receiving a call my phone is extremely static i can't hear the person on the other line and the person on the other line cannot hear anything They say that they hear a lot of static now my videos when I play a video on YouT

    Every time I make a call or I'm receiving a call my phone is extremely static i can't hear the person on the other line and the person on the other line cannot hear anything They say that they hear a lot of static now my videos when I play a video on YouTube for instance works just fine Siri  works just fine. I can't make a call or receive a call whatsoever because all I hear is static and I haven't dropped the phone in water nothing has really happened this literally happened overnight

    This is a wireless carrier issue.  The fact that the speaker & microphone work properly for other apps is a great indicator that your device is fine.
    Contact your wireless carrier about your call quality issue.

  • When making a call, I can't hear the person I am calling, but they can hear me. How do I fix this problem?

    Hey guys,
    I can play music and hear it just fine, with or without headphones. When I press on the keypad I can hear the noise it makes, I can hear calls with my headphones plugged in, or when the speaker option is on, however, unless this happens, I can't hear the person I am on the phone with.
    I've tried restarting, resetting, earasing all content, and restoring it with iTunes and that didn't work.
    I've tried cleaning the ports with a toothbrush, or pressing gently on the microphone and that didn't work.
    I've tried calling with the headphone on, and taking them off in the middle of the call and that didn't work either.
    I am currently outside of the US so I can't go to an Apple store, so I am wondering if any of you guys have been succesful at solving this problem. Your help is much appreciated
    Thanks again,

    If you can listen to the other person on loud speaker, means your earpeice got damaged.
    If you have warranty (1 year is basic, upto 3yrs if you bought an extended apple care), you can take your iphone to any apple store in the world for a free repair, yes, apple warranties are international.
    But usually they replace it with another new phone.
    So make sure you update your phone and backup everything on your itunes.
    Even if you're ot of warranty, you can get it fixed from apple by paying extra.
    For now you have to use headphone or loud speaker
    Goodluck

    I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

  • My iMovie is skipping like crazy when I try to edit and then goes to a black screen and you can only hear the audio!?!? What's happening??

    I use iMovie almost everyday for Youtube videos. I have nothing in my imovie except the 5 clips that I'm editing now. I have all my media on an external hard drive and delete everything after I'm done with ( I empty all trash cans). My iMovie is now skipping when I try to edit and then the clips just go to a black screen and I can only hear the audio, this has been going on for a week and I don't know what to do?!? Any help?

    Try Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
    If that doesn't help, try Resetting the System Management Controller

    When i get in the car, if the audio is set on bluetooth the music will start playing automatically without me doing anything even if i don't have the music (itunes) running.

  • Sometimes when I am trying to make a call, I can't hear the connecting tone in my phone, but the other party's phone is ringing. It happens every now and then (not everytime), I wonder if you guys face this problem too.

    sometimes when I try to make a call to someone, I can't hear the connecting tone im my phone, but the other party's phone is ringing.  I have to end the call again and make another attempt.  The connecting tone could only be heard after I made a redial.  I have checked with many friends on different telcos, and they told me they also face this kind of problems.  Can this problem be rectified?

    I went back to the service provider twice and they reactivated my phone the first time and the second time the tech rebooted the phone and told me how to tell if it was on my end or the other person's end.  Of course it didn't happen at the store, but right after I left I called a family member (on my plan) and the phone did this problem. It can be frustrating.  The cell towers are strong in my area, so it can't be that.  My next stop is to an Apple store but I am waiting until after Christmas.  I can't deal with the shopping crowds!!!

  • I cannot view clips on the viewer window - as it appears black, However, I can still hear the sounds in the background.

    Hello!
    I cannot view any of the clips (not from event browser nor from timeline) on the viewer window - as it appears black/or blank/ or static ! However, I can still hear the sounds in the background.
    P.S I have chosen the filter: ALL
    Please help me with that I'm getting desperate ! I need to finish a project within one week :(
    A million thanks in advance

    Hi F. Carl
    The clip is intact and it has video and audio.
    I have worked on it before and all was fine until I lost the work when it got frozen!
    The issue is:
    I have a (MOV.) ready clip that I wanted to edit a bit, hence I have imported the clip (import media) and whenever I try to work on it, the black screen prohibits me from doing anything.
    Any ideas please ... It's really strange !
