Connecting external audio

I am new to Mac and to Logic. I have a keyboard and a mic that I would like to connect and use for recording. I think I know how to connect through midi, but I would like to just line them in. I think I may have the wrong cords and I also can't figure out how to get it to use anything other than the internal mic. I thought that the people at the store had said that I could just use a patch cord and an adaptor. I have a patch cord that I usually use to connect to my amp, but this is a 1/4 inch plug. Is this accurate? What sort of adaptor do I need? I am so lost. I looked in the manual and it listed all sorts of cords and devices but nothing about what to do with them all. I really just need a step by step guide for how to connect a non digital audio source; to record using a device that is of the sort you plug into an amplifier. Do I need some sort of convertor? I used to use Acid on my PC years ago for creating music, and I swear that I just used the line in and never had to use midi.
Help, anyone?

If you want good results then first or later you'll have to buy an audio interface.
For now this could help you:

  • Connect external audio + internal audio in the same time

    Hello,
    how I can connect my bose companion 2 and permit to operate at the same time the integrated speaker and the external audio speaker? I can with usb-rca cable. where I should bay?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    I do not know anyone who has figured out how to do that! You can either use the external speakers or the internal speakers, but not both at the same time.

  • Connecting external audio interfaces?! Issues, help needed!

    Ok well basically i'v always used a pc to do music using cubase and a variety of hardware including a steinberg mi4 external audio interface connected via usb. Now on my pc which is actually less powerful than my new macbook (the 2.2ghz model) the interface works with out fault no latency, no distortion.
    However once used on my new shiny macbook, for which i'v purchased logic pro as opposed to cubase (felt like a change) when trying to use my interface via usb on the mac through logic i seem to have issues with recording and all sound comes through distorted with a great deal of latency. I'v tried altering the sample depth and the bit rate and nothing seems to work?
    I have downloaded mac specific drivers for the hardware so i'm sure its not a driver issue?
    Anyone with any suggestion, cos i'm a bit gutted really?
    P.s. Does anyone know if you can change the graphics card in a macbook?
    Ben

    Hi, im having the same issue, using garageband and logic pro. I used pc to make music with no problems at all with my Zoom g9.2tt guitar fx usb interface.
    Now with mac i get distorted and lots of latency.
    One way i found that can make this work with garageband is use the internal sound card to play sounds and the usb interface to record this helps a lot. This trick makes it for garageband but not for logic pro(still getting distortion/latency).
    By the way i used to have an emachines laptop with 512 ram memory and a 1,6ghz semprom processor, believe or not, easier to record on that one, with no latency and no distortion.

  • Connecting external audio to imovie

    I'm trying to import audio while recording through my isight camera in iMovie. Is this possible. So far I have accessed Sound folder in the System preferences and changed the input to my external device but I had no luck.
    My goal is to be able to switch camera views using different video clips while one audio track, though I may need to disect the track once it's in the clip editor.

    i think that your external microphone may be the cause for why you arent getting the beeps and sounds that tell you when to start recording. i would recommend you add you voice without any external mics ands see if everythign is working fine. from there you can go into system preference, sounds, and cahnge the settings fro the mics so that it can pick up sound from an external mic. I hope this answers your question.

  • Connecting external audio monitors to MacBook Pro

    I'm trying to set up a home studio. I'm about to purchase two Rokit Powered 8 studio monitors by KRK, which connect via an XLR or a 1/4" RCA cable. How can I connect these monitors to my 15" MacBook Pro?

    You need a stereo cable with 2 1/4" RCA plug on one end and the mini plug that you need for the MBP on the other end. They do make these.

  • Can I connect my PA to my external audio card M-Audio Fast track Ultra?

    Hello
    I wonder if it's able to connect my PA to my external audio card, _M-Audio fast track ultra so that I can use every input from my PA and use them in logic._
    Any Ideas?
    Best regards Frankensten

    So I should connect 2 guitar wires from the main outs, left and right to some of my audio card inputs and then Logic should recognize the sounds we are playing on the pa?
    That should work.
    Logic wont get any signal from the pa instrument if i don't press the front rear button on the audio card
    That's normal. Those buttons control which jacks are active.
    the sound is very low
    Connect headphones to the headphones jack on the PA and make sure you're hearing a nice loud signal. You could also connect the headphones to the headphones jack on the Ultra, to check for a signal there.
    There are level controls on the front of the Ultra. Try cranking them up. Also, make sure they are pushed in. When you pull them out, you engage a 20dB pad.
    Also, look at the LEDs on the front of the Ultra. Are they glowing green? This means they are getting a signal.
    In my PA there's two Monitors that I would like to use for logic, how would I do that?
    You would connect outputs from your audio interface to inputs on the PA. You could use the channel inputs, or you could use the tape inputs.

  • Connect firewire audio interface and external monitor

    I have just bought my MacBook Pro 13 and I will mainly use it for audio recording . I have connect my audio interface through the firewire port. I need to connect an external monitor . The only available ports are thunderbolt and USB . Can I connect a monitor with these available ports ?

    Hi charisio,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you would like to connect an external display to your MacBook Pro, you can use the Thunderbolt port. See these articles for some good information about Thunderbolt:

  • Can I select an external audio source?

    I have  iMovie09 ver 8.0.6.  I'm using a Panasonic video camera (it uses miniDV tapes) connected to my MacBook (white plastic 07) via firewire.  When I have the cable from the mixer going into the camera and recording to tape; when I transfer the tape to MacBook, I get the external audio source great!!!  However, when I plug the cable directly into the MacBook, it still gives me the audio (BUT) from the built-in mic of the camera.  When I open GarabeBand and record the audio, its the external and its great.  However, I don't want to have both recording at the same time only to overlay the GarageBand audio onto the video clip.  Yes, I've selected the 'in-line' option from 'System Preferences'.
    Is there a way that I can select the external source while in iMovie??  Looking at some other negative posts, I don't want to upgrade to iMovie 11 either.

    I came across a much older post which I believe solved my issue.  I connected everything up first, then booted up the MacBook; then I selected 'built-in audio' from the 'voice-over' option within iMovie.  It recognized it right immediately.  However, now I'm not sure that the audio is in fact coming from the 'hot' microphones that I'm receiving from the mixer.  But that's just troubleshooting.

  • How do I get Logic to sync to external audio device?

    Here is what I am trying to do:
    I have a Big Ben which I want to use to sync everything together. I have Lynx Aurora converters on the way but for now I need to use a 002 rack with a Presonus DigiMax for audio i/o. So basically, I want to connect BIg Ben to 002 with SPDIF cable and to Digimax with Wordclock cable and that all seems to work fine when Logic is off. However I can't get Logic 8 to sync to the Big Ben through the 002 which is used for ins and outs. I can get everything synced by setting Logic to Internal sync and then sending SPDIF from 002 to Big Ben (which syncs externaly to that) and then connecting wordclock out of Big Ben to Digimax. There has got to be a better way.
    I have tried setting Logic to external sync ( not exactly sure which method to use since nothing in the manual says that a particular setting is to be used with the i/o except maybe External or Free in Core Audio under Audio Tab on Sync settings - anyway this didn't work). I can use Digidesign CoreAudio Manager to set 002 to SPDIF but whatever I do, Logic doesn't not reflect changes to the clock rate. I someone could guide me on getting Logic to respond to Clock changes from 002R, I can probably get it going from there.
    Thanks,

    This is what I have figured out so far. If I turn off Logic, the 002 and Digimax clock just fine from the Big Ben. When clocking Logic from an external audio source (by using external or free under the audio tab of Sync preferences), that when I change timing of Big Ben, the audio changes to indicate it is receiving word clock. Logic throws up errors saying that there is a mismatch from external sync to project settings or some such error message. I can then change the clock in Logic to match what the Big Ben reads and errors go away and things indicate that it is clocked correctly. This seems to work, I am just used to other programs that when I change the clock setting on the Big Ben that they reflect those changes right away.
    And yes I can synch the 002 to the Digimaz but it still doesn't work correctly until I manually change the clock setting in Logic as well. I just wonder if this is how things are supposed to work in Logic or if I am doing something wrong? The 002 is just a temporary solution to get me through a session tomorrow. After then I will have a Lynx Aurora 16 connected with the Firewire option and then use the Lynx AES16 PCIe when it is available in a few week (or hopefully not months). I am just trying to get a handle on how Logic syncs to an external converter. And while Syncing and wordclock are maybe not the same thing, under the sync menu is the only spot where I have found wordclock even mentioned (at least it is in the manual when describing what some of the options allow).

  • How to connect external speakers to Satellite A100-451

    Hello,
    I have a Satellite A100-451 (UK) running Vista. I want to connect external speakers. There is a 'headphones' jack on the front (3.5mm jack I think), can I connect external speakers here? The speakers are 'PC Line' with their own power supply and also have a 3.5mm jack plug).
    Thanks
    KK

    You need the audio Line-out put and the headphone jack provides this output.
    In other words you can use this jack to connect the external speakers

  • Sound - My built speakers do not show in the output section in sound system preferences area only digital out hence unless I connect external speakers I have no sound - can anyone assist?

    on my IMac the internal speakers have ceased working - in the sound preferences area only digital out sound is there no internal speakers to choose so unless I connect external speakers I have no sound

    Hey Jack (woofman jack)
    Sounds like the micro switch inside the output jack that switches the audio from internal to external is stuck on external. Try plugging a set of buds, headphones or digital Toslink adapter in and out a few times to see if it will unstick the micro switch. You also might try jiggling a tooth pick around inside the audio output jack to see if that unsticks it? If not then you'll need to make an appointment at your Local Apple Store or Apple Service Provider and have the jack serviced.

  • Connecting external speakers

    i just got my macbook pro and a led cinema display. i have connected my Harman Kardon SoundSticks to the mbp with a rca jack and cannot see those speakers in the system preferences sound section. the internal speakers and the cinema display speakers show up. any suggestions?
    thanks.

    When you connect external speakers to your MacBook Pro, under Sound, they will still come up under Internal Speakers, but with the name 'Headphones' instead. Hope that clears any confusion up!
    Also, to switch between the display speakers and the Harmon/Kardon externals, just click the name (either Display Audio or Headphones)
    Cheers

  • Trouble connecting external speakers

    I'm connecting external speakers using RCA cables from the speakers to the headphone jack on my iMac. When I do so, under Preferences--->Sound--->Output, the "Internal Speakers" changes to "Digital Out" as I believe it should. However, I am getting no sound from the speakers (which work fine with other devices). The "Mute" button is not checked and I can't figure out what the problem is.
    I'm running 10.6.5 and the speakers are M-Audio Studiophile AV40.
    Any thoughts?

    The jack on the iMac is 1/8" mini stereo, I assume your "RCA cable" has that kind of plug on the end you plugged into your Mac's headphone out?
    Your AV40's are analog speakers, not digital. In +Preferences > Sound > Output+ it should say +Headphones > Built-In Output.+
    Sorry to ask a couple of simple questions, but
    1- did you plug into the headphone output or the line-in jack on your iMac?
    2- when you remove the plug, do the iMac internal speakers work?

  • Presenter 8 crashes after connecting external Firewire cam

    Good day,
    We often organize workshops and conferences which I sometimes record with an external camera for later reference by our own staff or to make them available to clients who couldn't attend the presentations.
    For a long time I was looking for a tool to synchronise PowerPoint slides with spoken recorded comment (audio/video), since I don't believe in just making slides available to people who couldn't attend the presentation, without the spoken comments of the speaker.
    I also believe in slides with as less text as possible, but more with images, schemes and animations to support the speaker's message. But in such a case, the spoken comment is an essential part of the presentation to get the message, since the slides as-such alone don't tell enough.
    I installed the trial version of Adobe Presenter 8 to test its suitability for our company marketing and presentation needs.
    Adobe Presenter 8 seems to work perfect to synchronise Powerpoint slides and screen actions, together with video recorded by an external webcam, connected via USB to my notebook or via the internal webcam in my notebook.
    However, I also want to record presentations, presented in our auditorium and meeting rooms and I want to synchronise in realtime (= during the actual presentation) the Powerpoint slides together with the video/audio from the speaker.  The realtime option avoids the work of recording the speaker on tape or in an MPG or FLV during the actual presentation, uploading the A/V file to my PC and doing the PowerPoint/audio/video synchronisation work afterwards by going through the whole presentation again.
    To record the video I therefore use an external semi-pro videocamera (JVC DV-500), since this gives me better possibilities to frame the right image, zoom in/out, better lens, etc ...  in comparison with an ordinary webcam.  The JVC DV-500 can be connected to a computer via a Firewire I/F.
    This always worked perfect when we recorded and streamed video/audio using Adobe Flash Media Live Encoder 3.2.  Adobe Flash Encoder recognizes the via FireWire connected external cam without a problem.
    But, when using Adobe Presenter 8 within PowerPoint 2010 to start recording a presentation, and when I switch on the power switch on the external JVC-cam, Adobe Presenter 8 crashes, showing an error "Application encountered an internal error ... report to product support forums, etc ..." and "Adobe-Pr-VC.exe doesn't work anymore", and creating some error log and dump-files on my notebook.
    After switching off the external cam and keeping it switched off, and manually deleting in Task Manager still running instances of Presenter-software (Adobe_Pr_VC.exe), and restarting PowerPoint, everything works well again with the USB or internal webcam.
    Already deleted Presenter from my notebook, cleaned up registry with CCleaner, reinstalled Presenter, but error keeps on coming back.
    Someone any ideas what causes this error?
    Software conflict, driver conflict, Adobe Presenter incompatible with external A/V devices, no support of FireWire I/F, ... ?
    Configuration:
    Fujitsu notebook LifeBook T5010
    Windows 7 Pro SP1  32-bit (Dutch version)
    Microsoft Office 2010 Pro Plus (Dutch version)
    Creative webcam connected via USB
    External JVC DV-500 videocamera connected via build-in Firewire I/F
    Firewire driver was installed by Windows automatically when connecting the cam (msdv.sys 6.1.7600.16385)
    The only other real-time encoding software installed is Adobe Flash Media Live encoder 3.2.
    Some other usual Adobe stuff (flash player, shockwave player, AIR, reader X, )
    The possibility of connecting an external cam to record the speaker and synchronise the PowerPoint and/or screen actions in realtime, would greatly enhance our work.

    Hi,
    started Presenter's Video Creator in troubleshoot mode with external Firewire connected cam switched off.
    1. Video Creator started in troubleshoot mode (got the 'troubleshoot' message)
    2. default active cam was the USB webcam (HD screen, SD cam)
    3. started recording
    4. everything worked normal
    5. stopped recording
    Result looked fine. Got the normal troubleshoot message, asking to send log files.  Did not do this, since there was no error at this time.
    Then repeated the process with exteral FireWire cam.
    1. Video Creator started in troubleshoot mode
    2. default active cam was the USB webcam (HD screen, SD cam)
    3. powered on external JVC camera connected to the notebook via FireWire
    4. Video Creator crashed after windows detected (beep sound) an active appliance on the FireWire port.
    Could not even stop recording with Video Creator in a normal way to go to the "send error log to Adobe" procedure.
    Instead got a box with the message: "Applications encountered an internal error. If the problem persists, please report on product support forums or contact the support team."
    Had to shut down Adobe_Pr_VC.exe manually in Task Manager.
    Tried the same procedure with another FireWire appliance, a DV video recorder with a tape of a previously recorded conference session.
    Same error, as soon as I powered on the videorecorder, and Windows detected (beep sound) an active appliance on the FireWire port, Video Creator crashed with the same error message as above.
    I can't go through the whole workflow to send the error logs to Adobe, since Video Creator crashes from the moment the power of a FireWire appliance is switched on.
    No possibility to stop recording in a normal way (SHIFT-END or clicking the icon in system tray).
    Had to manually shut down Adobe_Pr_VC.exe in Task Manager again.
    Tried again with Adobe Flash Media Live Encorder 3.2 to see how this application reacts, to be sure there is nothing wrong with my notebook or the Windows O/S.
    1. started Flash Media Encoder with external FireWire cam switched off
    2. saw 2 active devices : build in Sirius webcam and external USB Creative webcam
    3. saw image of my webcam in the encoder monitor windows
    4. switched on power on external JVC camera, connected via FireWire
    5. Flash Media Encoder immediatelly recognized "Microsoft DV Camera and VCR". Selected this and image of external cam was shown in the encoder monitor windows.
    6. Could stream FireWire cam image to an external streaming service without a problem.
    Conclusion:  a FireWire connected cam does work with other Adobe software. Must be something wrong in the Video Creator software.
    Sorry I can't send you the log files, since app in both normal and troubleshoot mode crashes prematurely.
    Hope my explanation helps you a bit to find a solution.
    Regards,
    Patrick
