Line6 Pod XT Live into Garage Band

Hi,
I'ma a newbie to Garage Band. Two questions, what is the best way to plug my guitar into my mac so that I can record into Garage Band? 2) I have a line 6 pod xt live. If I wanted to use that as my preamp, any ideas as to how to run the signal into the mac?
Thanks,
-Keith

In terms of audio playback, i can just use my amp as the monitor, right?
If it works for you, fine.
It was weird, I could not seem to get GB to recognize or the signal. When I choose live instrument, what input do i choose? (mono or stereo or is there another preference setting that I am missing?)
Look in GB's Preferences, under Audio/MIDI, to select your input.
Also, you can check in Audio MIDI Setup (/Applications/Utilities/) under Audio/MIDI to see your input.
what input do i choose? (mono or stereo)
Mono.

  • How to import a music file into garage band ?

    Hello everyone,
    I am new to Garage Band, pardon me if my question is too basic.
    I am trying to record a vocal. But friend has sent me a music recording (mixture of guitar & piano, without vocal) in mp3 format.
    I want to put this mp3 file in another track below the track that I am recording the vocal.
    How do I import in this mp3 file into Garage band ?
    Thanks

    drop the file into a blank area of the timeline
    Thanks HangTime, a bit embarrassed here. How do I drop the file ?
    U mean I open another window using FInder, select the file in Finder & then drop on the timeline ?
    Thanks, really appreciate your help.
    Cheers

  • How to input tapes from a DAT into garage band?

    I have a Sony DAT recorder and I want to transfer my tapes into garage band. I tired using a stereo male to stereo male audio cable through the headphone jack on my mac and no sound can be detected by garage band. What type of cable/connector would I need to succesfully do this?

    sound comes OUT of a headphone jack, use the line-IN on the back:

  • Can't Import Right Protected AAC songs into Garage Band

    I have always been able to take a track from my iTunes library (whether the track was a purchased iTunes or one ripped from a CD) and bring into Garage Band to play with (I'm currently trying to make christmas ringtones for my Droid). All of a sudden, Garage Band is giving me an error code that I can't import songs that are right protected. I just imported (and saved as a ringtone) a song and now, 20 minutes later I can't do it. Does anyone have an answer for me? I appreciate any feedback.

    It was never possible to import DRM protected songs from iTunes. The others were probably unprotected songs (which you can buy on iTunes too).

    10.5.8 with latest garageband 5.1 with MBOX 1. On Nov 4.09 I did a software update, now i get no output volume or input volume to the computer itself. I get it from head phones from my mbox, but not to the computer. Before the software update It worked great. I've tried upgrading software through digidesign .com, but they dont seem to have one for what i need. any way to get my old garage band back? go from 5.1 to earlier? Or maybe it was the upgrade to 10.5.8. update? Can i go back in time lol?
    Any help would be appreciated
    BTW
    Ive tried all the system sound prefs, and garage band drivers. Back and forth.

  • How  to  record  from  mini  disc  player  into  garage  band  if  possible

    I have some audio recorded material on a minidisc player/recorder which i would like to put into the computer to work on-can i put it into garage band 2 ? and if not is thier a free or not free software/programme i can download in order to record in quality what i have on the minidisc recorder.Also can you suggest any programmes/software (like cubase)which i could use to work on the sounds i have put onto the apple mac.

    Again, mine doesn't have a USB port, so the only way to get sound on the disk is to record it through it's line in (optical or 1/8" trs). My mini disk player is old.
    I think the new ones do have a mp3 import function (and a USB port or something similar)...don't know how it works though...I think that it just records them through it's line in though...
    A mini disk is like a very small cd-r that is constantly record enabled (unless you switch the tab), like a tape casette. There is an algorythm that allows the minidisk to hold as much info as it does...that's where my confusion comes in about how it imports/exports.

  • IMac into cam adaptor into garage band works,but GB only sees left channel.

    iMac into cam adaptor into garage band works,but GB only sees left channel. Do you think it's the wiring of iMIcs USB vs. the camera adaptor? Or is there a switch in GarageBand that will bring in both channels? Thanks!

    Theres a program called Bluestacks app player which when installed gives you an Android enviroment to be able to download apps etc and use/play them on a Pc from this you can then install an app which can create a backup of the app in apk format for transfer to a mobile or tablet etc for installation via your file manager app

    Am using a shure sm7b mic into apogee one.  Recording in Garage Band.  Want to include phone calls.  Any way?

    There are a number of ways to record a phone call interview. If you are using the new Apogee One for iPad and Mac you have an aditional 1/4inch input alongside the XLR microphone input. You can also utilize an app like ecamm's Skype recorder to digitally record the conversation and import the audio file to your GarageBand sesson after the fact.
