Help on either using a DI Box or a Pre Amp?

I recently bought an iMac 3.06 and I was wondering whether i should use a DI Box or a Pre Amp to connect my bass guitar through the Mac. I have no idea what I am doing any help would be great!
Thanks Nick

Hi Nick
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Actually there are a couple of inexpensive little gadgets that will allow you to connect your guitar to the iMac.
An [MXL iBooster Guitar|http://pro-audio.musiciansfriend.com/product/MXL-iBooster-Guitar-and-Mic rophone-Interface?sku=243800] to the 3.5mm Input Jack.
Or a [Griffin iMac|http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/imic> to a USB port.

Using a mixing board as a pre amp?

Hey all,
I have a decent little M-Audio audio interface but I'd like to record more than 2 real instrument tracks simultaneously for a recording session. I believe I can record up to 8 real instrument tracks at any given time with GB3 and was wondering if I am able to use a mixing board as a pre amp much like my audio interface? If so, how do I connect it up?
Here's the link to our board:

Thanks!
Jay.

For 8 channels you'd need a FireWire interface or mixing console that offers at least 8 channels out.
An example, the interface I use, the Presonus FirePod FireWire Audio Interface
8 Mic PREs and 10 channels out (GB can use 8 of those)

Using G4 iTunes to connect to pre-amp

Is the headphone port my only way of sending iTunes to my pre-amp? If not, can I use the firewire or a USB port (or something else)? Will I get better signal quality by using the latter?

Sorry for the late reply,
At the lower area of the back of my G4 MDD Dual there are 3 Holes for mini jacks.
1- (has ear phone icon indicator) for phone jacks
2- (audio icon) Line in
3- (audio icon) Line out
From manual, G4 Audio Specs G4 MDD Dual:
Front headphone jack
Built-in speaker
Stereo audio line in and line out minijacks
Apple speaker minijack for connection to optional Apple Pro Speakers
which G4 do you have ? perhaps, a different model ?

Anyone know how to stop the "activate" box from blocking usage of a perfectly legal copy of Ilisten? I want to help my dyslexic grandson and this box, including the activation code, keeps popping up, keeping me from using the software. I activated the program and did a few profile building sessions, now it pops up each time I start the program, blocking me from using it. Help sure would be appreciated.

I looked at your post this morning and did not know enough to respond, other than to find out that links to iListen now go to newer, renamed software. Considering it's been nine hours with no response, I'm suspecting few people here have experience with that software. You could contact the current copmany that used to sell that package and see if they have any archived support info.
BTW: please check you entry for "Mac OS" in your profile. It says iOS, which cannot run on an iMac. iOS is the system for phone and iPads but can't run on Mac computers. Do "About this Mac" from the Apple menu and see what it says about the OS version. Should look like this:
If the "Processor" line says "Intel," you have a newer Mac than the old modles this forum covers; Intel iMac have their very own forum here:

Trying to filter an entire database using a combo box or text box

Hi,
I am looking to create a combo box with rows vice columns, then I would like to create a macro or some for form of filter that gives me the option to search within each or all of the selections.
I have created a search function (using a textbox and the button features) that allows me to search for anything in my database using applyfilter. The problem that I ran into with this was that when I hit the might work, but only the first line worked.
So I tried to use a combination box to create a filter of the fields that I want to view for the particular search I need, but I want to select row headers vice columns of information. For example if I have five fields of: Last Name, First Name, SSN, Document
number and Unique ID.
I want a combination box to show the following field header when I click the drop down option.
(Last Name
First Name
SSN
Documentation Number
Unique ID)
Then I would to apply a macro filter feature for files within theses individual fields. I am just getting started in VBA and using Macros, so any help would be awesome!!
If I am too far off target please direct me back, I tend to over think things.
Thanks in Advance

Dirk Goldgar, I tried to you use the suggested method you gave me. Part of the problem I was having was that I wanted to view the field list, which I now know is very possible thanks to you, but only wanted it to show as one single list of fields.
So took the information you gave me and went on to create a list box instead. I later found out why this was not working either.
In what way was it not working? You can do the same thing with a list box as I described for a combo box.
I have relationships of tables attached.
I don't understand what you mean by that last statement, or how it's relevant to the discussion. Do you mean you have multiple different tables that you might want to filter? So you would need to either (a) first need to select a table from a
list of tables in your database, and only then select a field in that table, or else (b) have a table listing all the data elements you might want to search, with the table and field name of each, and base a list box on that -- then the code to search would
know what table to select from, as well as what field to filter on.
So this info that you provided was very helpful. I will continue to go through the link you provided.
So I can quickly sum up what I need:
1. A dropdown box that allows me to search any Field List
2. A textbox that allows me to type in the searchable information for that particular field.
3. Or some way to build a filter function for the whole list, with a textbox to search the key words.
This is all still a bit unclear to me, because I don't know whether you want to search a particular table, or any of many possible tables in the database.

How do i install opensolaris without using the virtual box??

hi.
i am new to solaris
i am currently using a windows XP OS
i got down the opensolaris cd from SUN
how do i install opensolaris without using a virtual box ?

The OpenSolaris CD is a "Live CD". You can boot off of the CD, and either run the OpenSolaris operating system directly, or you can select the "Install" icon on the LiveCD desktop. You can find full instructions here: http://dlc.sun.com/osol/docs/content/IPS/getst1.html
Do you want to keep your Windows OS on the disk? If so, then you want to follow the instructions for partitioning your disk (unless you already have a spare partition).

Safari crashes when using the dialog box to import/save files, in facebook under windows 7

I've encountered the following errors in some PCs, running Safari 5.1.7 in MS-Windows 7 Pro:
Safari crashes when using the dialog box to import/save files. One doesn't have to actually upload or download any file, the mere invocation of the relevant dialog box brings down all open Safari windows after a couple of seconds.

I have tried in-installing safari but it seems not to help. I have tried installing it to a third, newly installed pc and come to the same result.
All PCs are fully up-to-date as it regards Microsoft and Apple patches. Any ideas as to why this might happen?

Still having the same problem. Ever the optimist, I submit the following info.

How to use dynamic list box in survey builder?

Hello,
Could someone give me a little bit of thread? How to use dynamic list box in survey builder?

Hi Liu,
Dynamic combo boxes::A combo box is dynamic if it references a document property for which a value set is defined in the configuration (System Administration ® System Configuration ® Content Management ® Global Services ® Property Metadata ® Properties ® Parameter Allowed Values).
At runtime (when you open the creation form) the system reads these values from the configuration and displays them in the dropdown list.
If you link a combo box for which list entries already exist to a document property with a value set, the system asks whether you want to delete the list entries. it is recommend that you accept this suggestion and delete the list entries from the XML Forms Builder. Otherwise inconsistencies could arise between the entries in the XML Forms Builder and the value set in the configuration. This can cause errors when saving.

Using the Combo Box

I am trying to use the combo box, so that the users can type as well as go through the drop down and pick there choice.
But I have three issues
1. Whats happening is as soon as I type it in and hit submit it will not do anything, until and unless I click on the drop down and then go and click submit.
2. The combo box is a text box and the numbers are not sorted, is there a way to sort numbers for a combo box
3. How do I make the selection appear as the user is typing, for example If I type in 55, it should bring all the entries starting with 55.
I am using Entrylist which is derived by a standard BAPI.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Naseer

Hi Marcel,
I have selected the action as "System Action" "Submit" "Self". But it still does not work.
The other thing is the COMBO box is a TEXT box and the Values are "NUMBER" values so even when I select "sort" at the Entrylist level it would not sort it properly, simply because COMBO BOX is a Text box.
Please let me know if I am clear enough in explaining myself.
Waiting for you reply..
Thanks a lot Marcel.

What version of Adobe Reader?
What system?
What EXACT message (a screen shot can help here)?
Be very suspicious if a program is offering to help you with that, it could be a scam.

Help on either using a DI Box or a Pre Amp?
