Having trouble with condenser microphone and Logic Pro. please help

I purchased a condenser microphone that runs only with phantom power. I have an XLR cable from the mic into the phantom power interface and have an XLR to USB plugged into my computer, when i go to logic audio preferences it doesnt show that the microphone is even connected (ive checked input and output). Ive even tried it on other programs and i still get nothing. Please Help.

I have an XLR cable from the mic into the phantom power interface
What phantom interface is this, make and model.
XLR to USB plugged into my computer
What is this? Just a cable?
What microphone is it?
Trying to get an idea of your signal chain as, in your original post, your signal chain makes little sense. Do you have an audio interface or is that the phantom power interface you are referring to? A microphone isn't an interface and a mic, in itself, won't show up in Logic prefs (unless it was a USB mic, which it is not).

  • I am having trouble with the jQuery tabs browser. Please help!!!!!!!!

    I inserted the jQuery tabs browser and it is not working properly. I was just testing it so I haven't changed some of the coding yet or the wording. The problem is that when I test it in live view it shows actual tabs but when I look it up on the remote server it shows the word tab and then has paragraphs under each word. I want the tabs. Not sure what to do. Anybody please help. I am getting very close to my launch date. Thank you ahead of time.

  • Having problems with HP6980 printer and Windows 7, please help

    I just replaced my XP computer with a new HP computer running Windows 7.  Each time I turn on my HP 6980 printer, it won't print.  When I go to Devices and Printers, I see that it is offline.  I have to delete the printer and reinstall it to make it work and this solution is only good for the session.  I have to repeat the process each time that I turn on the computer.  Please help.

    Try running this next time you get the issue:

    This should fix the offline issue instead of reinstalling.

  • Having trouble with icloud on my Iphone 4, please help!

    It keeps telling me to accept the new terms and conditions in order to use icloud, but whenever i hit "view terms" it takes me no where. I deleted and signed back into my icloud account twice and shut my phone off twice. I just deleted the account all together but the error STILL POPS UP! I can't get rid of it! Since have everything backed up on my computer so i don't really need it. Is there any way to get rid of icloud and this pop up?

    So, after tinkering a bit bit with everything again I finally got it to work.  For anyone having the same issue as me, here is what I did to fix my problem...
    1) Power everything fully off (router, modem, iPhone, and unplug AE)
    2) With everything fully powered down, wait about 15-30 seconds to make sure everything properly resets
    3) Plug in your wireless router and wait for it to fully boot/cycle to normal operation
    4) When your router is fully up, plug in your AE and wait for it to fully boot/cycle to normal operation (should see solid green light to confirm it has joined the wireless network)
    5) When AE is fully up and operational, plug in your modem and again wait for it to fully boot/cycle to normal operation
    6) Now that everything else has been reset and rebuilt from the ground up, power on you iPhone
    7) When you go into your music player, you should see the airplay icon and can now stream media through your AE.
    ....hopefully this will work for you, though it is kind of a pain to power up one at a time and waiting in between.  Please still post if you know of a more efficient way to accomplish this task!

  • Im having trouble with SDK Version 1.3 someone please help

    I downloaded it and installed it, when I go to javac or compile the thing it says "Bad Command or filename" However it will Java it but there's no use in that if I can't javac it. Anyone have a solution to this?

    Set your path by editing your autoexec.bat file (copy it b4 you change it for safety sake) on win98 or from control panel on NT.
    Have a look at
    http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/getStarted/cupojava/index.html
    Its a step by step lesson on getting things like path and classpath (you prob dont have to set classpath ) set for windows or linux or macs so you dont have to do something like the following each time you want to compile something
    or do this on windows 98
    C:\jdk1.3.0_1\bin\javac YourProgramName.java
    (you understand that C:\jdk1.3.0_1\bin\javac should be whatever the path is to javac on your machine)

  • Having trouble with wav files and sample rates

    Hi ,I am having trouble with wav files and sample rates .I have been sent multiple projects on wav as the main instrumental ; I wish to record in 48.000kHz .Now comes the problem.When I try to change the project to 48k It seems to pitch up the track.I can't have them send the logic/project file as most have outboard synths,different plug ins etc.This particular case the producer has recorded the synth task in 41.000 kHz .My successful outcome would be to be able t create a project file in 48 kHz .And NOT pitch up whne I add the instrumenta wav file .Any help would be gratefully recieved,this is my first post so any mistakes I may have made go easy 

    You'll have to convert the actual synth audio file file that the producer gave you to 48kHz. You can do this in the audio Bin in Logic.

    I'm having trouble with iTunes synching and accessing the iTunes store.   When synching, the process tops at the back up stage, freezes and I can't close the iTunes window, need to ctrl alt del.   When trying to access the store, the progress bar stops halfway.   I've googled heaps and tried most of the standard answers - unistall, reinstall, etc, now looking for some help please.
    This has only started a few weeks back, after working smoothly for the 2 years of owning the iPhone 3gs.
    Any suggestions will be appreciated, it's getting realy frustrating.

  • I am having trouble with my FaceTime and imessage?

    I Am having trouble with my FaceTime. When I try to FaceTime some one I am getting no ringing and then I get a message saying lost connection try again. It has been like this since yesterday. I also tried to send a iMessage and it did not go. This is all new to me, has anyone had the same problem? Please help. Thank you.

    Turn FaceTime off in Settings>FaceTime>Off. Reboot your iPad. Turn FaceTime on again and see if it will work.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • TS2972 having trouble with ring tone and or ring back tones...i followed all directions and cant access ring tone from my play list.

    having trouble with ringtone and ringback tones ..i followed all directions for home sharing.  does anyone have a real solution???

    Hello sairdoor123
    From what I understand the issue seems to be with the hardware, obviously since the phone was dropped that could cause undesired results.
    If all your data is backed up to a computer then I would recommend doing a hard reset: http://www.palm.com/cgi-bin/cso_kbURL.cgi?ID=887
    If a hard reset is done then I would caution you with the following choices:  ( Should I have the audio circuit repaired as suggested by one of the repair guys? Or would that be risky?) - I would say this is risky because the person repairing the devise could easily sodder the wrong part of the hardware.
    If you really do think repairing the circuit board is more cost effective then I would recommend researching all your possible repair shops before doing any work. Make sure they have the credentials and experiences.
    Hopefully things work out for you.

  • I am having trouble with Canon scanner Presto!BizCard 5  HELP

    I am trying to use the Canon P-215 scanner to get my business cards to scan using the software Canon sent with the unit.  The CD says BizCard 5 and the Canon rep couldn't get it to work with my MacBook Pro....said it was a disk "cleaning" issue with Apple... The Canon guy doesn't know mac...please help me use the scanner to scan business cards, has anyone used BizCard with Mac?  THanks...Please Help!!

    Do you have alot of apps running in background? Tap home key 2 times and there's a list across screen with icons you can deselect them by hold on one and they wiggle touch the minus button and it will deactivate them untill you use them again. Do you have the phone dim after so many seconds or minutes? Is the screen bright all time? Do you go on the Internet or watch video on phone?
    These things can affect the hrs of use.

  • Trouble with MIDI mapping in Logic Pro 9 and 10

    Hi!
    So I recently bought a Novation Launchkey 25-key keyboard and, as it doesn't map automatically to barely anything, I've been trying to MIDI map it so I can control certain parameters wih the knobs. I've done the learn assignment thing and everything as I found here http://www.logicprohelp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=432, but there's this problem: I can't control parameters fully. I'm going to make an example:
    I've got the Delay Designer opened, and I would like to control the "Sync" knob with one of the keyboard's knobs, so it map it to do so, but when I turn the hardware knob it goes directly to 100. I mean, I turn the knob just a bit and it goes from 0 to 100, skipping all the other values. This happens with every instrument / effect in Logic Pro 9 but also in Logic Pro 10.
    I dont' know if anything else is having this issue, but it's really annoying and I hope you guys can help me fix it...
    So, as always, thanks!
    And cheers!

    And sorry for my poor explanation... English is not my mother tongue!

  • I am having trouble with input device and Presonus Studiolive mixer.

    Trying to integrate a Presonus Studiolive 16.4.2 mixer/interface into Logic Pro 8.
    All the tutorials I've found/watched/read illustrate a window under audio preferences and the user switching the input device (or output device) to the Firestudio Mixer or something along those lines. This was a feature updated in Logic 9, and so my audio preferences are a little different. I still have an input device but not output and when I bring down the menu my only two options are "built-in device" and "built-in microphone" and the mixer isn't showing up. I am wondering if it's possible to integrate it this way? Is there perhaps an order to starting them up? Or is it even possible to use it with this version of Logic? Universal control is installed and operating (responding on screen to stimuli on physical mixer); running osx 10.6.8

    Yes, just checked the Presonus release notes for Universal Control 1.7.2 (the latest), and it has removed support for Snow Leopard (OSX10.6.8), so that may be a possible source of the problem - might be worth contacting Presonus Tech support to confirm.
    You could update your OSX, but I'd be a bit careful there - not sure if Mavericks supports Logic 8.  If not, I believe there are places where you can still get hold of Mountain Lion (which is supported by UC1.7.2) - a quick net search should do the trick.
    Also, I've just re-read your post and notice you ask about the start up order.  The Presonus manual says to switch the desk on first, then fire up the computer.  This used to work with me, but I've recently updated to a new Macbook Pro and had to start using a firewire to thunderbolt connector, and I found that I could now only get the Studiolive to show up in Logic if I start the computer first, then fire up the desk then open Logic.  I raised a tech support ticket with Presonus and they were baffled by this, and couldn't see any reason why it should be, but nonetheless, it's the only way it'll work for me, so probably worth giving it a shot.
