How to connect Keyboard to FCP?

I have keyboard that is few years old. I want to connect it to my imac to use for background music to my FCP projects. I am wondering if someone could explain to me how to connect the Keyboard to the computer (IMAC) and what I record on? Garageband? Pleaase Help! -Nick

Does it have a USB or FirWire connector?
Can it output a midi signal?
Your question is probably better asked in the Logic, Soundtrack or GarageBand forums.

  • How to connect my electric keyboard with the GarageBand?

    I have a CASIO electric keyboard, and I use a cable to connect it from its audio output to my macbook's audio input. And I wanna use GarageBand to create a song with that keyboard. But it doesn't work, only my voice is recorded. I don't wanna use a microphone to record cuz makes a lot noise. Can anybody teach me how to connect my keyboard to the GarageBand directly?

    how to connect external keyboard to the garage band if its possible,
      is any body tried ? I have roland e66 keyboard and im trying to
       connect with grage band but i dont know thats is possible??

    You can definitely just connect a mouse and keyboard and then an external monitor and it will work. In the power options in the Windows control panel you will have a choice as to what happens when the lid is closed. Set it to "do nothing" and then you can shut the lid of the laptop and use only the external monitor.

    How to connect my wireless keyboard to IPad3?

    Well, hopefully its a bluetooth keyboard. If thats the case, turn on bluetooth on your ipad (in general>setting>bluetooth) and then turn on your keyboard. The ipad should discover it and then you will be asked to pair it--so hit the dialogue in the ipad and you should be good.
    Hopefully this helps.

    It should work with the appropriate firewire cable.

  • How to connect multiple Xserve Raid for Best Performance

    I like to get an idea how to connect multiple Xserve Raid to get the best performance for FCP to do multiple stream HD.

    Again, for storage (and retrieval), FireWire 400 should be fast enough. If you are encoding video directly to the external drive, then FireWire 800 would probably be beneficial. But as long as the processing of the video is taking place on the fast internal SATA drive, and then you are storing files on the external drive, FireWire 400 should be fine.
    Instead of speculating about whether it will work well or not, you need to set it up and try your typical work flow. That is the only way you will know for sure if performance is acceptable or not.
    For Time Machine, you should use a single 1.5TB drive. It is likely that by the time your backup needs comes close to exceeding that space, you will be able to buy a 3TB (or larger) single drive for the same cost. Also, I would not trust a RAID where the interaction between the two drives is through two USB cables and a hub. If your primary storage drive fails, you need your backup to be something that is simple and reliable.
    Oh, and there should be no problem with the adapter, if you already have it and it works.
    Edit: If those two external drives came formatted for Windows, make sure you have use Disk Utility Partition tab to repartition and reformat the drive. When you select the drive in the Disk Utility sidebar, at the bottom of the screen +Partition Map Scheme+ should say *GUID Partition Table*. When you select the volume under the drive in the sidebar, Format should say *Mac OS Extended (Journaled)*.

    You can install it on your iOS device (iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch) either by redownloading it directly on the device via the Purchased tab in the App Store app on it, or by connecting the device to your computer's iTunes and syncing it to it.
    Syncing apps from a Mac : iTunes 11 for Mac: Sync and organize iOS apps
    from a PC : iTunes 11 for Windows: Sync and organize iOS apps
    As to how to then use the app, if the description on the app's description page in the store doesn't describe how to use it in enough detail, then is there a link to the developer's website on its description page, and does that have details ?

  • How do you revert to FCP 10.0.5 after unintentionally importing FCP 10.1.1?

    How do you revert to FCP 10.0.5 after unintentionally importing FCP 10.1.1?

    Yup.
    I have two separate backups of my important stuff. After two I figure someone is out to get me with intent.
    Just a switch on power, connect and a few clicks and I'm back up and running if that "OH NO" thing happens.
    I talk to people who do not use their computer for what they call "serious work", thinking their stuff is not worth backing up.
    Then after a short discussion they realize that the 2,000 or more photos/memories or whatever, could be all lost in a few seconds they pretty much race down, buy a drive and get their stuff backed up.
    Moral of the story: BACK UP

  • I want to connect keyboard at iPad and I couldn't

    I want to connect wireless,keyboard at my iPad
    I tried it

    Miriam-
    If you go to Settings-General-Bluetooth, is Bluetooth set to ON?  If it is, does your keyboard appear under Devices?  If it does but is not connected, press on Not Connected.  You should see a message about how to connect it.
    If the keyboard does not appear, it may already be paired with some other computer or iOS device.  To use it on the iPad, it must be disconnected from the other device first.

  • How to connect my friends apple notebook through video call

    HOW TO CONNECT TO A FRIEND WHO IS USING APPLE NOTEBOOK FROM MY IMAC SUGGEST ME WAITING FOR A SOLUTION FROM APPLE TEAM SUPPORT

    Hi,
    Typing in all upper case is regarded and shouting here.
    Presumably as you have posted in the OS X 10.7.x (Lion) area you are running this version of the OS on your iMac.
    This will have iChat 6 on it.
    This can use AIM, Jabber and Yahoo IDs within the app.
    Apple IDS ending in @mac.com and iCloud issued @me.com and @icloud.com are also Valid AIM Screen Names.
    If you use Googlemail and Enable "talk" in the products there you can then use your Google Mail ID as a Jabber ID (although it has it's own Add Account option in iChat)
    Facebook has an option to Enable "Chat" which will give you a Chat ID variant on your name there and this can be used in iChat (or Messages) as a Jabber ID.
    The Yahoo Account will only do Text chats.
    It also has to be an actual ID registered at Yahoo.
    Chats are then AIM to AIM or Jabber to Jabber or Yahoo to Yahoo.
    So your Buddy will also need a suitable ID or Screen Name  for the relevant service.

  • How to connect sound or audio to my tv using hdmi adapter. I tried to connect thru sound settings but my tv is not found.

    how to connect sound to my tv set using hdmi adapter. Im using 2009 macbook pro 13". I went to sound settings then output and it shows internal speaker built- in, it wont locate my tv set. pls. help, thanks

    You probably can't because it looks like your MacBook Pro is too old to carry audio over HDMI. You will need to run a separate audio cable from the audio out port on the MacBook Pro to the audio in port on the TV.
    Check your MacBook Pro model year against the list in this Apple tech note:
    About Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapters
    Learn about the Mini DisplayPort in the latest Mac models that enables audio and video output for DisplayPort and HDMI.

  • I need to know how to connect my macbook to the tv

    I ordered the mini dvi adapter for my macbook 13in and obviously it connects to the computer but i have no idea how it connects to the tv. Where does it go? and do i need something else to help connect it to the tv? I am really confused please help.

    Yep, Apple makes adaptors to go from the mini DVI on the macbook to almost any type of input that you TV will have. First check the back of your tube to find out what kind of input it has, and order the appropriate adaptor.
