How to solve the noise issue when connecting an electric guitar?

Hello,
I own a 15'' MacBook Pro of early 2011, with Lion Mac OS X 10.7.2
I have an issue when connecting my electric guitar (Guitar Rig 4 LE) via USB & starting the Garageband '11 (ver. 6.0.4). I tried playing with the settings to get around the fuzziness/noise that's produced when the guitar is connected.
The original software I got with Guitar Rig 4 ALSO had a similar issue, but I solved it by turning down the ''Gate'' volume to get a clear guitar sound. I tried looking for a similar thing on Garageband but no luck. I'm taking the online lessons via Garageband, with all that noise it makes it even harder to learn.
Hope I made my case clear, and I'm looking forward for any suggestions in this technical problem I'm facing.
Cheers

Hey Keith, thanks for your response.
Well, to be honest I had no idea what that was, so I opened Garageband and looked for that option, and it seems I can't access it during the guitar lessons. I tried exiting the lessons to the main window but the option you talked about under the ''Track'' tab was still faded (i.e. inaccessible).
Did I misunderstand you or done it wrong?
The noise even gets WORSE when trying out the Rock Guitar lessons, not so bad on the Basic Guitar & Blues Guitar...
By the way, I did try the ''Aggregate'' Audio MIDI setup thingy from the utilities to enable both ''Built-in Output'' & ''USB PnP Sound Device (which is the guitar)" and didn't solve the problem.
Running out of options. Opt for surgery? haha jk

  • How to solve the syncing issues of apps downloaded? They are stuck on "loading" and "waiting"

    Syncing issues from iTunes to iPad. Apps are showing as "loading" and "waiting"

    I had the same issue and tried several options like rebooting, resyncing, deleting and reinstalling apps, restarting the network connection but none of them worked. Eventually I opened iTunes on my iPhone (not on Mac) to find that it had two pending downloads that was stopping the rest of the apps from loading fully.  You need to cancel them by swiping left to right over the listed apps and select cancel/delete. It worked for me.  Good luck!

  • Is my mac overheating? How to solve fan noise issues?

    I have an early 2011 macbookpro 13 inch that came with lion installed. Especially for the last couple of days I realised my macbook is overheating. I'm using a hard surface lapdesk (the logitech model) at all times.
    Today my computer was open only for half an hour and only chrome open (twitter for mac is running on background and that's it) istat nano shows temperatures for cpuA  of 190 degrees and the fan starts to make lots and lots of noise that I had a trouble hearing the low levels of music. idle memory is shown to be ranging from 20% to 95%, generally around 55%. fans go way above 4000rpm. This is not consistent though. It happens from time to time.
    Also, from the beginning my computer makes a click clack noise when I first press the start button. I thought this was normal but I read somewhere in this forum that it is not. Is it really not normal?
    What you think I should do? Shall i go to geniusbar to have it looked at? Is there really a problem?
    Thanks a lot!

    You're quite conscientious about heat, and although your levels seem high, it's hard to validate what's normal and what's not with a computer. Go to a Apple Bar, and they'll probably say, "that's normal."
    I do believe that you should visit your Genius Bar - but come prepared. Log regular temperatures, with and without a lapdesk. Note the click/clack noise. But unless you can suggest there's a problem, you might have a difficult time proving there's a problem.
    One thing you can improve: boot time. If you're pressing the start button, you might sleep your machine, instead. No start up time, less wear on your machine, reduced heat. Also, you might want to look into GFXCardstatus to reduce your heat http://codykrieger.com/gfxCardStatus.
    Oh...and post how things went at the Apple Store.

  • How to troubleshoot sharepoint with Issues when connecting to SSIS

    I am trying to insert into a sharepoint list with SSIS and am getting an error which is to vague. I am trying to troubleshoot but just don't know enough about sharepoint. I have looked at the log files but there isn't anything there.
    There are also a tonne of options under logging configuration....how would I trouble shoot permission errors, updating/inserting errors through logs or see what messages the connections are generating?
    From SSIS side all I see is:
    [SharePoint List Destination] Error: Error on row ID="1": 0x80070005 - Unspecified Error - Check SharePoint Server Logs if possible.
    [SharePoint List Destination [131]] Error: Microsoft.Samples.SqlServer.SSIS.SharePointListAdapters.PipelineProcessException: Errors detected in this component - see SSIS Errors

    failure.
    Any direction would be very very appreciated.

    Hi Caseypruden,
    I think you are using the SharePoint List Destination adapter downloaded from CodePlex, right? From the following links, you should be able to see permissions related error in the SharePoint Log file:
    http://sqlsrvintegrationsrv.codeplex.com/workitem/16301
    https://sqlsrvintegrationsrv.codeplex.com/discussions/279849

    If you are running the package in BIDS/SSDT, make sure the current Windows user has sufficient permission the SharePoint site to edit the SharePoint list. If you are running the package as a SQL Server Agent Job, make sure the SQL Server Agent Service Account
    or the proxy account has the corresponding permission on the SharePoint site.

  • How to solve the issue "CUV check user equivalence failed" ?

    Folks,
    Hello. I am installing Oracle 11gR2 RAC using 2 VMs (rac1 and rac2) whose OS are Oracle Linux 5.6 in VMPlayer according to the website http://appsdbaworkshop.blogspot.com/2011/10/11gr2-rac-on-linux-56-using-vmware.html
    In order to install Grid Infrastructure, we need to run Cluster Utility Verification (CUV) at first by running the cammand below:
    [ora11g@rac1 grid]$ ./runcluvfy.sh stage -pre crsinst -n rac1,rac2 -verbose
    Its output:
    Performing pre-checks for cluster services setup
    Check: User equivalence for user “ora11g”
    Node Comment
    rac1 failed
    rac2 failed
    Result: PRVF-4007 : User equivalence check failed for user “ora11g”
    ERROR:
    User equivalence unavailable on all the specified nodes
    Verification cannot proceed
    Pre-check for cluster services setup was unsuccessful on all the nodes.
    As you see above, check user equivalence failed. I have run the 4 commands to fix this error as below:
    [ora11g@rac1 /]$ ssh-keygen
    Its output:
    Generating public/private rsa key pair.
    Enter file in which to save the key (/home/grid/.ssh/id_rsa):
    Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
    Enter same passphrase again:
    Your identification has been saved in /home/grid/.ssh/id_rsa.
    Your public key has been saved in /home/grid/.ssh/id_rsa.pub.
    The key fingerprint is:

    [ora11g@rac1 .ssh]$ cat *pub >>authorized_keys
    [ora11g@rac1 .ssh]$ ssh rac1
    Its output:
    The authenticity of host ‘rac1 (127.0.0.1)’ can’t be established.
    RSA key fingerprint is 9d:ae:51:7c:72:81:07:37:31:92:f1:c8:90:bc:52:55.

    Write failed: Broken pipe.
    [ora11g@rac1 .ssh]$ ssh rac1-priv
    Its output:
    The authenticity of host ‘rac1-priv (192.168.137.35)’ can’t be established.
    RSA key fingerprint is 9d:ae:51:7c:72:81:07:37:31:92:f1:c8:90:bc:52:55.

    Warning: Permanently added ‘rac1-priv,192.168.137.35′ (RSA) to the list of known hosts.

    After run the 4 commands above, I run the command below again:
    [ora11g@rac1 grid]$ ./runcluvfy.sh stage -pre crsinst -n rac1,rac2 -verbose
    Its output is the same:
    PRVF-4007 : User equivalence check failed for user “ora11g”
    ERROR:
    User equivalence unavailable on all the specified nodes
    Verification cannot proceed
    I think the problem is "Broken pipe" and ssh cannot write authorized_keys to the machines.
    My question is:
    Do any folk understand how to solve the issue CUV "check user equivalence failed" for 2 VMs ?
    Thanks.

    Folks,
    Hello. Thanks a lot for replying.
    I have installed Grid Infrastructure a few times. Each time, on step 7 of 9, the installer fixes and checks 2 machines correctly. The entire installation has 3 parts as below:
    1) Install Grid Infrastructure for a Cluster
    2) Execute Root Scripts for Install Grid Infrastructure for a Cluster (script is root.sh)
    3) Configure Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a Cluster that includes NCA, ASMCA, PICA and CVU.
    Each time, on step 8 of 9, the Installer installs Grid Infrastructure for a Cluster successfully that includes "Prepare, Copy files, Link binaries, Setup files and Perform remote operations".
    But when the Installer get to part 3 CVU, it fails and then the Database cannot be installed.
    Deinstall Grid is a very complicated process to do. Because of this reason, we need to run CVU at first to make sure everything is correct for 2 machines before install Grid.
    Even we ignore "user equivalence (ssh)", we don't know whether other items can be passed or not because CVU cannot proceed to check the machines.
    My question is:
    How to have the script "runcluvfy.sh" continue to check the machines while confronting "user equivalence failed" ?

    Jim, that sounds like a good hypothesis. Yes, I am using smart previews. I have my originals on an external drive which is connected. Still, LR can not find them. Do you know how to tell LR where to find the originals? I would like LR to identify the source automatically: if external drive is connected LR should show "original and smart preview" not only "smart preview". Thanks for your help.

  • How to solve the issue "OEL 5.6 boot Oracle ASMLib driver: FAILED" ?

    Folks,
    Hello. I am installing Oracle 11gR2 RAC using 2 VMs (rac1 and rac2) whose OS are Oracle Linux 5.6 in VMPlayer.
    I downloaded Oracle Linux 5.6 Media Pack for x86_64 (file name V24479-01) from https://edelivery.oracle.com/linux.
    I have installed OEL 5.6 for VM rac1 and done the follows:
    1) install rpm and oracleasm packages for rac1.
    2) edit /etc/hosts to set up IP addresses for eth0 and eth1 for rac1 and rac2.
    3) edit eth0 and eth1 for rac1 by using command [root@rac1 \]# neat
    But when boot the OS, I see "initializing Oracle ASMLib driver: FAILED".
    When configure Oracle ASM library driver by running the command:
    [root@rac1 /]#/etc/init.d/oracleasm configure -i
    Its output "initializing Oracle ASMLib driver: FAILED"
    I think the reason is the OS cannot initialize Oracle ASMLib driver. My question is:
    Do any folk understand how to solve the issue "OEL 5.6 boot Oracle ASMLib driver: FAILED" ?
    Thanks.

    Folks,
    Hello. Thanks a lot for replying. OEL 5.6 comes with 2 kernels: uek and red hat
    I have chosen to use red hat kernel for 64-bit. I run the following command:
    [root@rac1 /]# uname -rm
    Output: 2.6.18-238.el5x86_64
    I have downloaded 4 files for this version of kernel from
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/linux/downloads/rhel5-084877.html as below:
    oracleasm-2.6.18-238.el5xen-2.0.5-1.el5.x86_64.rpm
    oracleasm-2.6.18-238.el5debug-2.0.5-1.el5.x86_64.rpm
    oracleasm-2.6.18-238.el5-debuginfo-2.0.5-1.el5.x86_64.rpm
    oracleasm-2.6.18-238.el5-2.0.5-1.el5.x86_64.rpm
    I have installed the 4 files and got the error messages for the first 2 files as below:
    [root@rac1 /]# rpm -ivh /home/oracleasm-2.6.18-238.el5xen-2.0.5-1.el5.x86_64.rpm
    Error: Failed dependencies: kernel-xen=2.6.18-238.el5 is needed by oracleasm-2.6.18-238.el5xen-2.0.5-1.el5.x86_64.rpm

    Error: Failed dependencies: kernel-debug=2.6.18-238.el5 is needed by oracleasm-2.6.18-238.el5debug-2.0.5-1.el5.x86_64.rpm
    The last 2 files have been installed successfully. But when reboot Oracle Linux Server-Base 2.6.18-238.el5, I still see :
    "Initializing ASMLib driver: FAILED."
    [root@rac1 /]#/etc/init.d/oracleasm configure -i
    Its output "initializing Oracle ASMLib driver: OK "
    My questions are:
    Does the issue OS "Initializing Oracle ASMLib driver: FAILED" have effect later ? Do we need to solve it ?
    Thanks.

  • I reinstall the Yosemite due to the wifi issue, when finished, the iMovie was not installed, I try to download it from app store, but it's not free. How can I get iMovie back?

    I'm using a mid 2014 13" rmbp. I reinstall the Yosemite due to the wifi issue, when finished, the iMovie was not installed, I try to download it from app store, but it's not free. How can I get iMovie back?

    It's something to do with the main user account (not iTunes account) on my Mac because I logged in with another account and it downloaded fine, I installed it on the HDD and even though the date in App Store was 16th October 2014, it is the full installer of 10.10.2.
    To try to resolve this problem, I have copied the installer app elsewhere and deleted it but App Store still will not allow me to download it with my main user account yet just allowed me to update iTunes.
    I had a brainwave last night that it might have been related to me changing the default downloads folder to one not on my boot drive (to save disk space on my main boot drive) but having changed it back, tried again, rebooted and tried yet again, deleted my App Store preferences. nothing has worked.
