Getting M-Audio Keystation 61es to make sound

I just ordered a keyboard, model given in discussion header. It says that it is just plug and play, I hooked it up to some headphones, no sound, I put on GarageBand to do stuff, no sound from computer. Any tips?

This might sound a bit obvious but have you checked your System Preferences>Sound? Your lack of sound has happened to me occasionally when Sound settings have been changed for other apps. Input should be set on Line In, and Output to Headphones. Also make sure Mute is not checked.
Another possibility is to test the Audio MIDI set up application. You will need to open the MIDI window, check your keyboard(controller) is identified by the computer and is working correctly. Finally Test Setup in the Toolbar will indicate the keyboard is ready to play. I hope this helps.

Anyone tried the m-audio keystation 61es with their intel imac?

I was thinking of getting one for garageband and was wondering if it would work, Thanks

I have an m-audio keystation pro 88 connected & it works fine, as does my emi 6|2m interface. I can't say as I've stressed it much wrt faders, knobs & switches, but the keys play and sound comes out the other end.

I only get one audio channel when i make a rough cut.

Hey everyone,
when I'm making a rough cut with my subclips in Adobe Prelude, he combines my two audio channels into one track. Even when i export my subclips to Premiere Pro I also get one audio track with two audio channels in it. What am I doing wrong?
I'm working on Mac and Prelude CC 2014 and Premiere Pro CC v8.1.
Can somebody help me?

Hi Sven,
You are doing nothing wrong here. If you will expand the audio track in both Prelude and Premiere, you can see that both the audio channels are in place. Its just the difference in the way the channels are being represented in Prelude timeline and rought cut.
Please let me know if you are loosing any of your audio channel.
Thanks,
Ramesh.

Can't get m-audio keystation 49e to work

Hi everyone i'm having a lot of trouble getting the keystation 49e to work with logic pro 9. When I plug the keyboard into my macbook I can only play sounds through the virtual keyboard (hitting caps lock), however logic recognizes the when move the volume slider and when I play a note on the virtual keyboard logic I am able to bend the pitch using the pitch bend wheel. I can not play sounds with the keys on the key station though. logic recognizes the volume slider along with the pitch bend and modulation wheel, but I when i press the keys on the keyboard nothing happens. Anyone have any solutions?
Thanks

Have you already checked your preferences to insure your macbook is selected as your input device? Are you sure your keyboard isn't trying to play very high or very low octaves of where the instrument normally plays? Check the keyboard at higher and lower octave ranges.
I find that most problems I have with midi keyboards are solved by closing Logic and restarting the computer.

How can I get the audio only from a home made video

I have several home videos saved on my iPhone and I am wondering if I can get the audio off of the videos to make an audio CD. I have a PC. Windows 7

Put the clip in an iMovie Project. Then share the project using the SHARE menu,
Use SHARE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME
Choose SOUND TO AIFF.
AIFF is an uncompressed audio format. You can use iTunes or GarageBand if you need to convert it to AAC or MP3.

How can I get an audio-in connector to work with a MacBook Pro (Mid 2012)?

I have a Plantronics headset with two cables: audio in and audio out (like the two connectors on the old MacBooks). It is pretty old and so I assumed it was for those. I have tried to get it to work with my mid-2012 MacBook Pro, but the microphone (audio in [yes, it does have a picture of a microphone on it]) cable isn't recognized by the Mac. It thinks it is headphones, and unsuccessfully tries to play sound through it. The other cable (audio out), however, successfully receives sound and plays it through.
I hope that makes sense, and I would appreciate any help .

They removed the audio input, starting from your model, you will need an USB interface, there are may, and it depends on how high of quality you need.
This works for most applications, unless you are trying to record "music quality"

Logic Pro with M-Audio Keystation Help

I just got an M-Audio Keystation for use in my studio, and for some reason I can not get any sound. I am using my Logic on a G5 and i have it synched with my Mackie D8B in HUI mode. I know that the input of the Keystation is working correctly, as I can see it working in Logic, but the sound is no where in sight. Im guessing since I have the audio through the D8B it has something to do with that, because other tracks with work in Logic, but the keystation won't. Any ideas????

Select an audio instrument track and assign an instrument such as an EVP88 and try it out.

I am loading a video into Photoshop CC but getting no audio track

When I load an mov or mp4 file into my photoshop CC installation. I get no audio track showing up.
When I add the video as a wmv file, an audio track shows up, but the video pixels go to transparent as soon as I click the Play button (and I can hear no sound, although there appears to be a track playing). Nothing is muted.
Please advise.
Thank you.

Thanks. I realize I could use other software I but my question has to do with Photoshop CC. Details on the video files will make a difference to the answer? How so?

M-Audio Keystation 49e not recognised

I am using an M-Audio keystation 49e with garage band and for some reason, I cant get it to be recognized as an input device. What am I doing wrong? The blue light is on but when I go to system profiler, I dont see it on the USB list. Help!!!

That's actually a good question. I have not yet, because I don't have another USB cable that fits into the back of the keyboard. However, I can't imagine that's the problem because, the computer still recognizes when the MIDI is plugged in and when it is not. Both in the Audio MIDI Setup and Garageband, it recognizes a MIDI is plugged in. I have not tried playing it through the keyboard though and I run the sound through some Bose speakers. I can hear other things coming out of the speakers (i.e. if I play some loops or something), so I'm not sure if that is the case). I just don't understand how the computer can recognize the MIDI, but not recognize me playing anything on the keyboard. Is it worth buying a new USB cable?

I get no audio when on Firefox (shuch as Utube) but I get it everywhere else, what's wrong?

Prior to 2 days ago everything was working as expected. I was able to get audio along with video on various sites, Utube being one of them.
Then when I opened a previous working Utube site I got the video but not the audio. All audio volumes are up, I get full audio on all other programs but nothing when I access a site on Firefox.

Windows Vista and 7 include a mixer that allows you to selectively mute and control the volume of programs. You may have inadvertently muted Firefox.
Start playing a video, click the sound icon in your system tray at the bottom right of your screen (you may need to click the arrow to the left of the icons to see it), then select "Mixer". In the applications list on the right side, look for "Plugin Container for Firefox", and make sure the it's not muted or the volume isn't turned down.

Sony PFM-42V1: I cannot get any audio from monitor

I cannot get any audio from my PFM-42V1. first: I connected independent speakers via speaker sockets - result no sound. Then after reading its Manuel it suggested I connect headphones to the monitor's audio mini jack - again no sound. What I do not understand is it said if sound doesn't work with headphones - contact computer manufacturer. Any suggestions?

From your description it sounds like your using input 1 or input 2, you will need to feed a audio source into the 1/8 mini female jack (Fig. 1) next to input your using. This will allow the audio to pass to the speakers you've connected to the monitors speakers jacks (Fig 2). Also you'll want to make sure that within the Monitor Menu under Custom Setup that you have Speaker Out: On (not off).

I was working on a project a few days ago and now I'm not getting any audio or visuals out of it. In the project file the screen went grey. Not sure how to fix this. I'm new to iMovie, but the program seems easy to use and my Mac is new. Any help?

I used to use Movie Maker and it would be able to handle lots of file uploads and big projects. I figure iMovie can do the same since it's newer and it's on my iMac. I was working on a project for a few months, it was working fine up until about a few days ago when the project file just stopped working. Not getting any audio or visuals and the screen went grey. I hope to not lose the project file as I've spent a lot of time on it. The project will still show up in iMovie, but it won't play. Other project files will, but this one won't for some reason. It's my first time using this program and I assumed it would be fine, but now it's causing me big problems. Anyone else run into a similar problem?

But it is I jsut can sync, back up files, or anything becuase its stuck at this screene and wont do execute when i click either of those button

Major delay in audio for notifications causing no sound.

Major delay in audio for notifications causing no sound. Email text and app notification sounds are so quick thT with the new ios4 update there is now a delay in audio to the Bluetooth so I don't know when I get one. Phone ringer works fine and so does iPod and games. Anyway to fix this? I've tried resetting phone, turning device on befor phone and turning off Bluetooth and back on. Nothing seems to work to kill this delay in audio. Help!
Ails and texted

This also happens to me. I believe that since notification audio is now pushed to any A2DP-enabled bluetooth headset, and because of the fact that notification sounds are very short, most of the time the sounds fail to transfer to the headset, since the connection initialization takes a couple of seconds, way more than the duration of the sounds themselves.
This could only be dealt with if Apple would include a submenu to each paired bluetooth device that would allow the user to set WHICH kind of audio would go through the headset.

For Movie sound tracks, how to Make sound? Auto Normalize is dangerous

I'm not sure how to do this.
But i'm making an animation movie. i lay sounds(Mp3's etc i downloaded from websiteis) in about 3 different Normal audio tracks.
I add sounds ettects(GB rain, etc) too and also later on i will add a music track.
The problem is that, all these sounds came from different sources. some of them are loud.. some of them are quiet.
How do i prepare my sound project so that when i export somehow all that will be fixed. The last time i made a movie..and watched in in a normal TV.. some sounds were quiet i had to up the volume.. then other sounds would suddenly play and they were too loud.
At that time, i didn't use any compression or anything like that. I just adjusted the volume track sound level lines for the entire single track but also within the track i added KEYS so that i could lower the volume of loud sounds.
The whole thiing sounded good when i heard it in GBand.. but in the TV it just didn't sound good. I had loud sounds and soft sounds.. i had to, as i said, keep adjusting the TV volume.
What effect do i have to add so that 1) there won't be any dangerous changes in sounds( Some too loud, some too quiet) and 2)So that my whole track is in the same level when i play it on a TV.
I heard that using compressionin helps.. I tried a test, go to track edit and select Comporession->Limiter smooth.
That sounded like something that would work. and it did sound nice. But i'm not sure if when i play it on tv.. it iwll sound too low or too loud compared to other TV shows.
In sum, how do i make it so that when i create my movie using a Gband soundtrack composition...and hear it on at TV, that the sound level will be around the same as a regular TV show.. and not have super loudness or something

Before you experiment with compression, just put clips with different volumes on separate tracks in GB and adjust the volume using the volume slider!
