Griffin GarageBand Guitar Cable for connection

Can I use the Griffin GarageBand Guitar cable to connect my Yamaha mixer to my G5 tower. It's a 1/4" connector to a 1/8" mini-jack.
Thanks for your help!

You'll need to tell us more about your setup.
It could be any number of things, like what effects are you using?
Or did you know that where your guitar is placed in relation to other electronics can create a magnetic field that is picked up by the guitars pickups? Try moving your guitar around by facing it in other directions and see if that helps.
Without more info though, that's all I can suggest.
Good luck.

  • Griffin Garageband guitar cable??

    Does anyone use this with Logic Express or know if it will work?
    I would be plugging it into the audio input of my MacBook Pro.
    thanks

    just further to what I wrote, I see that I said 'without an interface' in my first post - an iMic is an interface so I might have been a little misleading. I'm not familiar with the ports on your Mac ....but I'm think it should work. Questions to tick of would be:
    - have you had any luck with anything other than the Griffin G-cable?
    - are you enabling the track (ie., the 'R' should be illuminted red to hear the signal)
    -if you can't hear anything, can you see a signal is getting through, does the meter flicker?
    - have you tried MIDI? (that's something to verify that Logic is working)
    I had a lot of fun/luck with the iMic ...if you don't have one, its worth consdering. And they are good, and cheap (compared to the interface aailable), and mine still works well after years of use.

  • What cable for connecting macbook air to dell ultrasharp u2412m?

    would like comments on best cable for connecting my mackboo air ro adell monitor - Iam new to apple and a bit lost.

    The new Airs have mini displayport connectors. I don't know what ports your monitor has, but if it has an HDMI input you can use a mini-DP to HDMI adaptor (these are available from Apple) and then a regular HDMI cable to connect to the screen. Similarly, a mini-DP to DVI adaptor and DVI cable if that's the port you have on your monitor.

  • GarageBand w/ Griffin Imic+guitar cable

    Ok Hi all, first post but I've been skimming the forums for a few weeks. I just bought a 15" powerbook with the works. I'm trying to mess around with garageband so I picked up the griffin guitar cable and imic (re: college kid on a budget) and have everything setup and installed correctly.
    I'm able to record myself playing, but the volume input isn't very high. If I'm picking/strumming, its tolerable, but not adequate. If I play fingerstyle, you can BARELY hear it. I'm not sure where my problem lay.
    I have everything turned up to max, as far as I can tell. Is there any software that I can use to adjust my input volume further? All the software that appears to have come with Imic is junky and not what I need, unless I'm overlooking something.
    Thanks in advance,
    J

    Pardon me for stepping in but I have another problem with a similar setup, I sure would appreciate your thoughts on this. I have a 1GB Mac Mini hooked up to a Griffin iMic and the Griffin Guitar cable in order to connect to my electric guitar. I am able to record into Garageband, however, there is at least a half second delay between the time I pick a cord and it comes out of my speakers (monitor enabled). So, basically, it is impossible to play with this lag... I have the latest version of Garageband and all the updates to Tiger, what to do? Is it the iMic? Is it the Mac Mini? Is it a "magical" setting in Garageband? Is this even possible or am I facing a lost cause, really do I have to buy an iMac before the monitor lag goes away??? Sure would appreciate some advice, I'm sure I'm not the first one to experience this.

  • Optical or analog cable for connecting Macbook 1,1 to Sony Bravia

    Hello
    I have found a mini-DVI to HDMI adapter (plus HDMI cable) to take the video  from a Macbook 1,1 (all white) to a Sony Bravia TV. Now I need to find the right cable to carry the audio from the Macbook to the Sony Bravia. The Macbook has an optical (digital) audio socket (output?) and the Sony Bravia has 3 HDMI ports and 5 apparent audio jack ports (no idea whether they are 2.5 or 3.5 mm and whether they are analogue or digital). Please could someone advise me which or what sort of audio cable I should buy.
    Here are the Mac specs.

    Many thanks for any and all help

    OK. So I now have the sound connection working. The 3.5mm jack from the audio cable goes  into the headphone socket, NOT the optical (digital) audio socket on the Macbook, and the red and white jacks go into the respective red and white sockets (surprise, surprise) on the back of the Sony Bravia. I select 'Comp" as the input audio source in the TV settings, and the audio from the computer is broadcast perfectly from the TV internal speakers.
    I am now waiting for delivery of the mini-DVI to HDMI adapter and have a question related to this.
    The TV settings offer options for external devices corresponding to the ports on the TV, which include HDMI and Comp. When I have both the mini-DVI to HDMI and the audio cables connected, should I still choose Comp, or should I switch to HDMI as the external device. Will the TV be able to pick up input from 2 external devices at the same time although only one can be selected?

  • Correct cable for connecting to HD TV

    I have a Portege m400-s5032, serial # = XXXXXXXXX
    I would like to connect it to my Samsung series 440 Plasma TV in order to stream Netflix.
    What cable should I use? Do I need an adaptor?
    [Moderator edit to remove serial number.]

    That laptop has an RGB video output port. From what I can tell looking up the specifications for your TV, that TV does not have an RGB port. It's possible that some sort of converter cable exists, btu I don't know how well they'd work.

  • Cable for macbook to tv

    Can somebody please tell me if the Belkin Y Adaptor Cable (http://tinyurl.com/2uzpnb) as sold on the Apple site is the correct cable for connecting the sound for our Macbook to the tv? It's listed as Mfr. Part No.: F8Z180-07-GLD.
    If not, does Apple sell what we need?
    Thanks!
    susan

    Most modern TV's have RCA plugs for sound. Are you just using it for audio or will you be connecting it to use with video also? If your using it with video be sure the audio in ports you hook to correspond to the Video in you're using.
    To be sure just check the manual that came with your TV. It will tell you which audio ports go with which video ports.

  • Difference between these Thunderbolt cables for an iMac?

    What is the difference between these two Thunderbolt cables for connecting Thunderbolt harddrive docking station to an iMac?

    Thanks!

    Along the lines of this topic, does anyone know whether Mini DisplayPort cables are usable for Thunderbolt? Here's one, for example, that's cheaper than Apple's $29 cable:
    http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B009NE77TQ/
    I would be concerned about (at least) two things:
    1. Can it handle the speed?
    2. Does it have the right circuit?
    It's possible that if it *seems* to work in a thunderbolt application, you might still run into trouble with intermittent data failure if it's not up to the task.
    Thanks for any thoughts.

  • ITrigue L3800 - Where do I get extension cables for the left & right speaker ? HELP !

    @ reader : I have already contacted Creative Labs themselves but they unfortunately do not offer any extension cables that run between the left or right speaker and the sub-woofer. And since the connection into the sub is a weird looking '3 pins stacked on eachother' type, I am wondering if anyone has seen extension cables for connections like these.
    I am grateful for any help on the issue (adresses, weblinks etc.), because it is really bothering me and the way I want to set up the system in my living room !
    Have a great day !

    OMS. If you can still find it. try searching for Opcode OMS (open music system) You need it to run usb midi interfaces in OS9. Good luck, I'd seriously consider getting Logic express.

  • Connecting my BASS using Griffin Guitar Cable

    I just bought a Griffin Guitar Cable that works great for my Guitar when playing on Garageband, however I thought that it would work for Basses as well. I can't seem to get levels when plugging in my bass. Does anyone know for sure that Bass Guitars aren't compatible with the Griffin Guitar Cable?

    it's not exactly a compatibility issue with the cable, it's just a cable, and that's where the issue is:
