MBP Retina- Audio quality
I have a 17 inch MBP.... looking to possibly purchase the MBP 15.6 Retina.....
How is the audio quality from the onboard speakers? The 17 model(s) have exceptional audio.
And in Mt. Lion is there an equalization setting to boost bass and reduce treble?
Thank you,
Reed
Probably you have taken all these steps, if so ignore this.
System Preference > Sound > Output
Make sure that the slider for balance is set at the middle.
Reset PRAM. http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4405

Best.

Tech Specs state, "support for audio line out"; meaning no optical out on the new Retina? As in some sort of adapter may come out for it? This is a rather huge selling point for me, between new Retina and going hi-res antiglare 15" with optical out.
Thanks!!Now this is interesting. I just had the following reply from Apple's support chat:
Just another minute.
We don't offer an optical port,
because today's technology would do that wirelessly.
No need to downgrade the sound with cables.
I have however found a future solution for me as I just discovered the AirPort Express base station offers the good 'ol audio minijack with both analog/optical outputs. From what friends have told me in the past, the support staff receives their detailed information on new products day of release, so perhaps there is still some confusion on their end over whether or not the headphone minijack is both analog/digital. Looks like i'll just have to purchase the Retina and report back -
Hi everybody,
any ideas how to record from an external audio device (tunrtable) direct into MBP (mid 2012)?An existing turntable, or are you open to getting a turntable that speaks USB?

Retina Macbook pro audio quality is bad in windows 8.1
Like the title states, my Retina Macbook pro's (2012 model) audio quality is very bad in windows 8.1. It is unbearable to listen to music on it. I am using the latest bootcamp drivers, 5.1. I believe this is a driver problem, as it sounds fine in OS X. I tried to find the proper driver myself with no luck. I feel this is unacceptable on a computer I spent so much money on. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Yes...
I also just recently purchased a MacBook Pro retina 15 (mid-2014) with bootcamp (windows 8.1) installed. While using my windows partition, the MBP seems to be running a bit hot, at least hotter than the OS X partition.
As for comparison, I have the 2012 MacBook Pro retina 13 with bootcamp (windows 8.1). It does not get as hot as the 15, and in fact, I don't think it runs hotter than OS X...
Any thoughts? Is it perhaps because I have the NVIVIDA dedicated graphics and in the windows partition, IRIS PRO isn't running? -
MBP Retina: Missing HDMI Audio Option
Using my MBP Retina, I've tried connecting my Pioneer home theater receiver using the built-in HDMI port. The video works great, but there is no option in the Sound System Preferences menu to use the HDMI Audio as the main output. What am I missing?
Fixed with 10.8.2............although the first time I plugged the HDMI cable in it didn't work........so I unplugged it and plugged it in again and it did.........it was like it had to learn what a TV was or something.
Still doesn't have any audio controls for the TV though.......which is lame........come on Apple! -
Audio input on MBP Retina.
How can I connect a Microphone or an Instrument (E-Guitar) to the new 15" MBP Retina? I want to use Garage Band -which is at the momen absolutely useless...
Use a USB audio interface such as this one (which is known to play well with Macs):

Connect MBP Retina to Pioneer Receiver no HDMI Audio
I'm connecting my MBP Retina using the HDMI cable to my Pioneer SC-68 receiver. The video works fine and displays great on the TV, but I don't get the option as to selecting the HDMI as an audio sound output. My only two options are Internal Speakers and SC-68 Airplay, which I figure the two linked up over the network by themselves.
I can use Airplay mode, but then I get no video on the screen.
Any ideas? Is Apply blocking the audio on the HDMI or choosing not to support it in favor of their Apple TV?I'm also having this problem. I briefly saw the SC-LX86 (EU version of the SC68, lovely Receiver btw) option in my Sound preferences today after installing an SMC update, but my rMBP froze shortly after requiring a hard reset and the option had gone on reboot. Very frustrating.

While trying to play League of Legends in the lobby and loading screens i can hear everything but when i go in game i cant hear anything, and with teamspeak my teamspeak cant detect the input or output devices and i can hear everything else like skype and everything
Already reinstaled flash restored the system and took it to the apple store, this happened like for 2 days with youtube and they solved that but not the problem with the game or teamspeakjoshcali wrote:
actually.... it doesn't.
the 1920 is simulated, and apple doesn't recommend it.
Apple doesn't offer the option of full resolution (2880x1800) and says everything other than 1440 x 900 won't look as good as 1440x900.
so while you can set the monitor to 17" resolution (1920x1080) it has to simulate it on a 2880x900 screen and has to blur and reinterpolate elements to make it work
they've really messed it up for anyone wanting true HD resolution for professional reasons.
Indeed. Everything except 2880x1800, which is unavailable without SwitchResX, and 1440x900, which comfortably fits one pixel of the image into a four pixel square of the Retina Display, must be simulated or scaled. However, while the scaling is real, the 17" "simulation" looks as good, to my eye at least, as my wife's MBP 17". Going smaller will test one's eyes probably as much as Apple's scaling algorithms so the tradeoff for greater screen real-estate may turn out not to be as bad as we'd think. All I need is a MBP Retina Display and SwitchResX to find out... -
Ok. As I said, my MBP Retina in running BF3 really poorly. I tried the SMC reset and PRAM reset, but doing it EVERY time I want to play does not solve the problem. In many cases it still shows 19 - 28 FPS performance even after the resets.
I really want to know what Apple says about this!
My MBP has 16GB RAM and I am running the game trought the SSD via BOOT CAMP.
Obviously the hadware is strong enought. I even saw some tests on youtube where in high settings the same MBP made 50 FPS average!
Any miracles?
Thanks everyone in advance for any help given.
PS. Apple, if you want, you can pronounce yourself about it!
DanFirst of all. Thank you!
And about Windows, I am following the same procedures as the test I saw on youtube. Original BOOTCAMP drivers.
I'm not really sure if the Windows OS cloud affect it so badly! I mean, the only thing I have there are my games: BF3 and small steam games. Nothing really heavy.
I installed that only for gaming, not even office programs.
Do you belive that my windows version cloud cause this? (even using the same as tested) -
MBP Retina or Powerful Ultrabook?
Hi, I've been a PC user all my life, but after working my way through the first iPod Nano, a couple iPod Touches, and now an iPad 2- I've grown to like the way Apple works. I'm finally at the point where I've decided to upgrade my 4-year old Future Shop sale Toshiba, which surprisingly has lasted me a good deal of time. However, I'm not a fan of the limited capabilities, the weight, and the fact that it very easily overheats (to nearly scalding temperatures), leading me to opt for my iPad most of the time. I'm a sucker for HD and quick boot-ups, so of course I fell in love with the MBP Retina when it was released. The only thing holding me back is the hefty price tag. Because of this, I began to research several ultrabooks and found that I could get the same specs (except for retina, but I'm fine with 1080p) and even a few bonus features (I would love a Blu-Ray drive and some accident-proof features) for half, or slightly-more-than-half of the price of the MBP. My favourite features of the MBP are the "little things"- fast bootup, magsafe, trackpad, and iCloud to work seamlessly with my iPad (which, i guess isn't really a "little thing"). I'm just not sure if these are worth the extra $1000 when I could just get an amazing PC.
I plan to use this computer in the following ways:
- Web browsing/ social networking
- Homework (university... of course)
- Entertainment (play movies, TV shows, etc)
- Some video and picture editing (I have a Sony camera which records AVCHD, which edits best on Sony Vegas)
- Running language software (i.e. Rosetta Stone)
So anyway, I'm not a gamer or a hardcore video editor, but I would like to be able to do some editing and video playback with clarity and without lag. As such, I figure I really only need the i5, so the base model of the Retina is fine for me. But again, I could get a **** good computer with i5 for much less money than the Retina, so I'm looking for reasons to sway either way. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
tjHmm...
'll readily admit, I'm a bit of an Apple head, so always say YEAH GO FOR IT.
However,
I'd say be aware, if you aren't going to use the power, you may be better going for alternatives, but I'll give you a rundown of some pro's and cons for your usage.
- Cold boots in 15 seconds flat
- can play 4 1080p streams at once without lag or framerate drop
- Photo editing on Aperture is excellent
- Photostream means your photos are there almost instantly wirelessly (not with the camera of course)
- Photoshop CS6 (when the retina patch is out) will look brilliant
- I had a photo zoomed out to fill half the screen size, of a whole person, yet could still see individual hairs on the head.
- Build, engineering, design and material quality unsurpassed in the industry (you cannot flex anywhere or make anything creak)
- Logevity, just upgraded from a 2008 Air - which was still going strong with no visible wear or damage/scratches
-Power, good graphics chip, switchable for battery life
- Video editing is amazing (on Final Cut Pro - which is Retina ready) you can veiw full 1080p with the interface still visible
Cons:
- Lag - on 'best for retina' its great, on 'More space' scaling, if you allow GFX chip switching, will cause serious lag - forcing the GeForce fixes this
- Other laptops will be great for your needs, and cheaper, but may not last as long
- The next generation in a year will likely iron out the lag issues
- Most programs are not yet retina ready - meaning they look... well... very dodgy indeed
I would say the MacBook is a fantastic machine and you will not regret the purchase, it will last you a good 3-5 years and you will thoughoughly enjoy it. It's an absolute joy to you and the trackpad and keyboard are brilliant. The speakers are also great.
However, you will likely get a notebook more than good enough for your needs, as you said, for much less money. If you can happily afford it - get the Mac, they are some of the finest computers money can buy. If it's a stretch - get a **** good alternative, you'll enjoy it equally and get great performance and some extra money in the old pocket!
Hope this helped a bit anyway - if you have any questions, ask away, more than happy to help -
How can I test my discrete graphics card in an MBP Retina?
How can I test the hardware on the discrete Nvidia grpahics card in my late 2012 MBP Retina?
I've had a *lot* of problems with it which I won't repeat here but the latest fun thing it's doing is crashing and requiring a hard reset any time *anything* attempts to access the discrete graphics card. This includes but is not limited to:
*Opening system profiler and clicking on Graphics (it displays a blank screen)
*Running a 3D graphics benchmark
*Running intensive mathematical calculations on the GPU
*Connecting to an external monitor with the thunderbolt port and using the computer for a short period of
None of these things actually work and after unsuccessfully attempting any of them the computer becomes very unstable shortly there after and usually crashes and requires hard reset. One time I got a crash report that said something about GPU panic.
Any recommendations? I get the sense that the apple hardware test is not doing a thoroough test of the GPU if at all.
Thanks.If they add OSX support for this product and it comes in at a reasonable price point, it could be an attractive solution.
http://www.anandtech.com/show/5352/msis-gus-ii-external-gpu-via-thunderbolt
Also, there are products from other companies that allow connection to PCIe cards through thunderbolt. These two are geared more towards professional use (Audio/Video I/O cards).

Ableton Live 6 vs Logic Pro 8 CPU usage/audio quality.
Hi,
Any user's have feedback regarding CPU usage between Abelton Live 6 vs Logic Pro 8. I'm currently running Live 6 on an MBP 2.0ghz (CD) and am constantly running into audio drop outs etc etc.I am reading throughout the net that Logic Pro 8 is more CPU friendly than LIve 6... is this true, overall? Also any users ever do a mixing test between the two apps to see if there was an audio difference when rendering your final project to aiff or wav? I am thinking on using Live 6 as a stratch pad to "create" as I enjoy it's flexibility then transfer the project over to Logic, however that depends if there really is a difference in CPU usage and Audio quality between the two DAW's.
Thanks.
guess i should also state that i will be running on the new imac's come tax return time. lolLogic 8 is very CPU friendly, I can say that much. I never found Ableton Live 5 to be very taxing either, though. Pro Tools is.
But like you I use Ableton as a scratchpad, I love how it works, and Logic for the finishing touches. But that's just because I'm not good at Logic yet. Not fast at it.
Get them both! You'll be glad you did. -
Brand new MBP Retina constant kernal panics
I have a new MBP Retina with Mavericks 10.9.4 installed. I have received constant kernal panics since a few days into it. It seemed as though they were being cause by the io/logic boards, but those have both been replaced now. OS has been reinstalled multiple times to no avail. BSD and kernals blamed are all over the place (Dock, WindowsServer, mds; filesystems, AppleSMBusController, IOAcceleratorFamily)
The latest kernal panic is as follows:

I've got many more where that came from. I just don't want to post a wall of text.An update on my situation.
I had my macbook pro replaced with a brand new one by Apple, which was brilliant customer service.
Before giving back the old macbook, I decided to copy all my essential documents over to a usb stick. I also formatted my time machine external drive so it was blank.
Rather than restore this new macbook using my time machine backup, I set it up as a new machine and copied just my documents from my usb stick. I then proceeded to carry out fresh installs of software I regularly use but nothing non-essential (namely Spotify, Firefox, Chrome, xCode, Adobe CS5, Squidman, MAMP and Office 2011).
For three days everything worked beautifully - until last night when I had my first kernel panic on this machine. Nothing was running apart from firefox when this panic occured. The report is below and states the process which was running was 'plugin-container' which is part of firefox.
Below is the log output:

I'm running the latest OS X Mavericks - all updated to date.
I've tested the thunderbolt display with a friends MacBook Air and I see no problems there.
Any clues what is going on? Or it this latest Kernel Panic just a coincidence compared to my previous macbook?
Thanks in advance! -
Bad audio quality - USB to headphones adaptor?
Hello,
I've had my MBP for nearly a year now, and have had a problem with the audio quality ever since I got it. The problem occurs when the music is quiet or there is silence - there is a lot of white noise, and occasional beeps and pops. It seems that this is a common problem with MBPs? This isn't a problem I have with any other device, and is not due to the encoding of the music (the same music library produced excellent sound on my old 12" powerbook).
I was wondering whether there exist any good quality (and small) USB adaptors for headphones? I presume this would solve the problem by bypassing the audio card altogether? If so, could anyone recommend such an adaptor that would be mac-compatible?
Thanks!
Message was edited by: melkor445Not an answer to your question. But I got confirmation last week that this is a known issue. See my earlier thread. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7831115
I'd be interested to know about any headphone adaptor you find. You should send the bill to Apple though. -
I've noticed my MBP Retina is more easily confused than my old MBP when using external monitors.
The problems occur after unplugging from an external monitor. Unless I actually re-start the computer, the resolution in some apps (e.g. Safari) fails to revert to retina quality. I am often left with the toolbar and windows so far off the laptop screen that it is impossible to reach them and the OS is unusable (have to restart). And just now the machine went into a strange fit where it kept powering on and off the displays every few seconds, apparently unable to decide what mode to be in. Again, I had to restart.
Is it normal to expect that I would have to restart the machine when moving between external monitor/laptop only combinations?
All these effects are fairly intermittent (although very frequent) so could be hard to reproduce at the Genius bar.*there comes (i was mixing up english and german spelling without noticing )
