No Audio Input after Logic 9 upgrade

This was working consistently in Logic 8 for so long I can't remember how/where to fix this. After upgrading to 9, my audio channels no longer have analog input.
So when I create a new audio track and click on the I/O (specifically the Input), all I see for options is the Bus.
Also in Audio MIDI Setup, not sure what I used to see before, but for some reason I'm no longer able to switch the modes to 48KHz. They revert immediately back to 44.1 no matter what other I select.
Can someone point me to some basic places to look? Thanks, I need a refresher and I admit I'm feeling lazy to take this on right now... hopefully something simple I'm forgetting or overlooking. Thanks for the help.

In L9 you can now select different devices for In- and Output. So as soon as you have selected an Input device the "R" buttons will return to your trackheaders.

  • Firewire Solo - No Audio input in Logic

    Always there are problems with using live audio input with Logic. Why can't it plug'n'play like Garageband?
    I'm getting no audio input to Logic Pro 8, even thought a signal is going into the 'Solo and into the Mac itself.
    I've done all the following:
    - Installed M-Audio's 1.9.3 driver update for SL
    - Selected the 'Solo in Logic prefs
    - Checked its selected in OS Prefs
    - Unplugged and replugged the 'Solo 'hot'
    - Restarted the Mac
    - Restarted Logic
    Any ideas people?
    I'm right minged-off, as I'd finally time to do some recording this weekend. But sans audio input - no soap.

    Try launching the M-Audio FireWire application and check the software mixer to make sure inputs or outputs aren't muted or turned down. I had that happen once.
    BTW - Although the unit has 6 inputs (mic and instrument on the front, stereo line in on the back and digital coax stereo in), I believe only the two of the four analog inputs can be active at a time. Either the front pair, or the back pair.

  • Horrible Line Noise w/ Built in Audio Input After Update!

    Something happened after the most recent LE8 update, I now have terrible line level hiss/noises when using the built-in input on my MacBook Pro. No trouble with my Firewire audio input though. The noise is really bad and records to track, making me believe that this is an input issue. I'm not positive that it's from the update but I've never had this problem before. It happens with both Logic Express and Garageband, rendering the audio input useless. Anyone else having this problem?

    Thanks for the response guys. It seems we're in the same boat.
    The problem is intermittent on my machine . It has occurred three times since I bought it. The fist time it lasted for a day and a half. I rang Apple support and went through a number of steps until the P-RAM suggestion which seemed to fix it. A few days later it disappeared again and resetting the P-RAM had no effect. My wife continued to use the computer (without sound) and some hours later it came back after a restart (she only restarted it because she is in the habit of shutting down instead of using sleep). The problem occurred again. That time I restarted the machine a number of times, with and without the external speakers plugged in, with them turned on and off etc. This had no effect. I gave up. Some time later my wife went to use the computer and it came back. I now believe that the P-RAM solution that seemed to fix the problem the first time was just a coincidence.
    I rang Apple support again and they gave me the following steps (A,B & C of which I went through the first time the problem occurred):
    A: Log in through another account and see if it had the same problem.
    - The built-in audio was still missing.
    B: Run the disk utility on the hard drive (after booting from installation DVD).
    - There were nil problems on the HD, but it did not fix the problem.
    C: Reset the P-RAM.
    - This worked the first time though it has not worked on subsequent re-occurrences of the problem.
    D: Do an Archive Reinstall.
    - I did this today; though the built-in audio was working, I just wanted to complete the suggestions the Apple support person gave me. The problem has not reoccurred yet, but it has only been a few hours. I will be using the computer as much as possible tonight to see if the problem reoccurs.
    If the problem reoccurs I'll be taking the machine in for warranty repairs, or better still replacement.

  • No audio input into logic 9 using Apogee Rosetta

    Hi there, I've just upgraded to Logic Pro 9 and realized that all the inputs (1-32) are greyed out and unselectable when I go to make an input selection.
    I'm using an Apogee Rosetta 800 and didn't have this problem on Logic 8.
    Any ideas how to solve this problem?
    Thanks in advance.

    Yes it is checked on. Sorry that wasn't clear in the last post. I tried checked off as well. But from what I have read it should be on.
    Software monitoring only needs to be on if you wish to monitor through Logic's audio engine. Most audio interfaces also have a direct Monitoring function which allows you to monitor the inputs of the audio device. Direct monitoring virtually eliminates latency (except for converter latency which is minimal).
    So... you've created a -MONO Audio- track in Logic? You then select the track and can see the I/O channel strip on the left hand side of the page.
    There are two I/O buttons right above the meter, the bottom is output and usually set to 1/2. The one right above sets the input channel of the Audio device... make sure Record is enabled then select that button, from the drop down choose Input, how many do you show as possible inputs 1, 2, 3, 4?
    Play the bass and select each input until you show some input level.

  • No Audio input into Logic 9 using Firewire Solo interface

    I am trying to get audio (bass guitar) into an audio track in logic. I am getting a signal to the Firewire Solo panel in preferences. I have Link and out 1/2 selected in the audio interface panel. In Logic audio preferences I have selected Firewire Solo as the input device. I create a new Audio Track and I get nothing. I have tried every option when creating a new track. I have read that many people have had the same problem in other forums but I have yet to hear a solution. Any help would be appreciated.

  • Logic Channel Strip Instruments no longer open after Logic 8 upgrade

    I upgraded Logic 8.0 to 8.0.1 and now none of the preset Logic Channel strip instruments will open. I can open all of the instruments on their own no problem. But if I select something from one of their saved presets or an instrument that I've saved, it does nothing, just hangs. There's no beach ball or logic not responding. When you do force quit, it quits logic and then upon a restart of the system, the system just freezes too. This is really frustrating because I've save a lot of my own instruments and can't get to them now. This happen in a previous session and a new session started from scratch with the upgrade. I can access all of my saved audio channel strips. Has anyone encountered this? One more bit of frustration and impediment to my work flow. Thanks, Jeff.

    I've also trouble with that Channel Strips. I've saved and closed a Song with some Mastering-Plugs in the Output 1-2 ( also Stereo Sum ) and after I reloaded that song, there wasn't no Plug anymore. So all my work was gone and I am also very frustrated.
    The next big Problem is working with folders. I've in most of my songs folder of MIDI and Singers and when I am working with this songs on Logic 8, I got many failure in the view of waveforms and regions.
    Sometimes regions doesn't play anymore when I switched between folders in the song. That nervs me up the whole time ...
    Maybe someone can help or can tell me that's why we get ProKit 4.5

  • USB MIDI Controller no longer working after Logic 8 upgrade

    Hello, my M-Audio O2 USB MIDI Controller worked brilliantly with Logic Pro 7 after simply plugging it in. I never needed to install any drivers or do any setup. Now, after upgrading to Logic Pro 8 it isn't recognized and does not work. Does anyone know what's going on and can anyone please give me some advice on how to fix this problem? Thanks

    Go to Logic-Pro beside the Apple Logo at the top of your screen to the Left,
    then Preference,
    then scroll to Control-Surface settings,
    now select set-up
    From there delete and then reinstall your control-Surface, do it manually as the Scan doesn't work all the time,

  • No HDMI audio out after Windows 7 Upgrade

    I have a DV4-1123US with an Intel Integrated Graphics Card(X4500, I think), and Intel High Definition Audio HDMI.  After upgrading to Win7, there is now no longer an option to set HDMI to use as audio.  In other words, HDMI no longer shows up in the Audio Devices window.  Video works fine.  It seems that I am not the only one having this problem, but does anyone have a solution?  Is this something that we just have to wait on an updated driver for?  I downloaded the most recent video driver from Intel, but Intel for some reason does not recognize my audio driver...

    Never mind, problem solved.  I have the Intel chipset for video.  I went to Intel's website, they have a utility under chipset support to tell you if you have the latest driver.  I ran the utility, it told me what I needed, I downloaded it, and after reboot, I have sound through HDMI.

  • Adobe Presenter can not use audio output after 10.8 upgrade

    Hi,
    I just upgraded from Snow Leopard (10.6.8) to MTL (10.8). All went smooth apart from the fact the when I launch adobe presener (flash) over any browser in MacOS, it can not play the audio part. It used to with 10.6.8.
    The problem persists after rebooting the Mac. Other Apps (iTunes) use the audio just fine. So, it's something specific to the path of code that Adobe flash is using (?). The funny part is that when I launch VMware Fusion and a Windows7 VM, I can use the audio for the same application. So, it's the MAC part that's broken. Any ideas? Maybe I'm missing an updated plugin or something?
    regards,
    Thanos

    There's no change if I hold command-R to boot into recovery. The mac chimes on powerup but nothing else seems to happen.
    The machine has an SSD drive in it so I can't even listen to hear if it is loading anything or acting differently when I try different keypresses.
    As I had some spare RAM lying around, I've tried swapping that in but no change there either. I still suspect it's a software rather than hardware problem, but without any way to control the boot up, I'm not sure how I can fix it.
    I do have remote time machine backups - is there any way of restoring these manually, perhaps by removing the drive from the mac and copying the backup data over using another system? (Unfortunately I don't have any other mac systems to experiment with this, though)

  • Audio Inputs no longer work after upgrade to 10.4.10

    Anyone else having trouble with audio inputs after upgrading to 10.4.10? Here's my deal:
    MacPro dual 2.66, 4GB RAM, running 10.4.10 as of this morning.
    Upgraded to 10.4.10 today and the mic on my Plantronics USB headset quit working. 'Phones still work. Here's what I did:
    1. Tried multiple audio input devices. None work.
    2. Tried all USB ports, problem persists.
    3. Tried the 1/8" audio input, problem persists.
    4. Zapped PRAM, problem persists.
    5. Called AppleCare and they had me do an Archive and Install on the system software, which installed 10.4.7 and the problem went away. Then, at their suggestion, I let Software Update reinstall 10.4.10 and the problem came back.
    6. Rebooted the system from a 2nd internal drive running 10.4.9 and the problem went away.
    Seems pretty clear to me that this issue is with the OS, yet Apple's support staff insists the problem is "with the data on my boot drive". Thing is, the data on the "problem" boot drive consists of exactly the same applications on the other drives, and only those applications. There ** is no ** data on the boot drive other than the OS and some applications. Yet the other drive I can boot from that runs 10.4.9 and doesn't cause audio input issues contains all sorts of junk.
    So, to reiterate, I'm booting from a clean boot drive with nothing but OS 10.4.10 and some pro applications on it and the audio input won't work. I boot from into any other Mac OS on this drive or any other and all is well. Yet this problem is supposedly with my data?
    Is anyone else out there seeing issues like this?

    I used a UVC-compliant USB Logitech camera (the
    Fusion) driverless
    under OS X 10.4.9.
    FWIW, none of these devices are actually driverless. They rely on drivers either supplied separately by some company (not necessarily the vendor of the product) or bundled into the OS. Usually, the bundled drivers are based on open standards like UVC mentioned in the link. Apple writes a lot of the bundled driver code itself but some of it comes from outside sources like LSI or Intel.
    An unfortunate fact of life is that open standards are not always as well defined as they ideally should be. Another is that certain companies sometimes set their own standards that aren't quite compatible with open ones, sometimes to implement real or imagined improvements on an open standard, sometimes to gain a marketing advantage.
    The good news is that the market usually -- eventually -- favors the open standard. The bad news is that it often takes some time for this to happen, leaving users -- particularly Mac users, who still represent a smaller market force than those using Windows -- without a solution for an uncomfortably long period of time.
    Your best or only recourse for now may be to downgrade to 10.4.9 until this gets resolved, but you should also take into account that not all users are having these problems so it may be something other than the update itself that is causing the problem. I just video chatted with a colleague using an Intel Mac mini who is having no problems whatsoever -- we are both puzzled why he is unaffected while others are.
    Sorry this couldn't be of more help.

  • After OS Upgrade, System Preferences won't recognize audio input/output.

    When I got an iPhone, I had to upgrade to OS 10.5.8, as well as upgrade Safari (to 4.0.3) and iTunes (to 9.0.1) for everything to run smoothly, and it does.
    However, since I went though the motions last week with these upgrades, System Preferences or Utilities doesn't want to recognize my audio input/output jacks. It won't recognize when I plug in my stereo or my headphones. I hook up my computer to my stereo all the time to listen to music in the living areas of my apartment, and now I can't because it isn't reading the jack.
    Any suggestions? How can I get the system to fix this problem?

    Check your Audio MIDI Setup settings.
    These are user-to-user forums where everyday folk post questions and offer answers to each other. Apple does not contribute to this message board. None of us has any idea what Apple is going to do until they do it.
    If you feel it's a "problem" did you post in the Product Feedback area?

  • How can I route my audio interface inputs to Logic Express inputs?

    Hello,
    Logic Express can 12 inputs to record audio on.... fair enough.
    My MOTU Traveler, together with ADAT connected Mackie Onyx 800F have 16 inputs...
    How can I use the first 4 inputs (XLR) together with the last 8 input (ADAT)
    Logic only seems to count from 1 to 12!
    (After reading the manual, It seemed to be solved by making new Audio Input Objects in the Environment, but unfortunately these objects where removed from Logic Express)
    Does anybody have the solution?
    Thanks a lot.
    Greetings,
    Mark

    Hi Michael, thanks a lot!
    Unfortunately it didn't solve my problem yet. I tried
    the audio/midi utility and found that the inputs
    can't be turned off. Is there not a environment patch
    possible, that I can load that puts the inputs in the
    right order? I hope so!
    Greetz,
    Mark
    The Environment doesn't route audio; it routes MIDI. There are audio objects IN the Environment, but you can't shuttle audio around like that.
    You have to remember that LE is an entry-level piece of software. You might think Garageband is entry level, and I think it should be, but in reality, LE is VERY crippled. Don't get me wrong, I'm not ragging on Logic as a program; I think Logic is great. But Apple has made some poor choices with respect to the features of LP that get crippled in LE.
    Sorry to digress from your original topic, but I think this is a bigger issue. The difference in price between LP and LE is enormous. That difference should be due to the fact that LP has plugs and effects (and other fairly esoteric features, like surround mixing, that most people don't need), and that justifies the price difference. Remember, when Emagic sold Logic (pre-Logic Pro 6), those effects and instruments cost a LOT more than the difference between LP and LE. LP is really a steal for what you get. LE is a poor substitute.
    Seriously, LE is a lot less than just a lite version of LP; it's crippled by things like the 12 input/output thing (what is the point?), the useless Auxes, and numerous other little things that keep it from really competing with other 'lite' sequencers like Cubase SL or Audiodesk.
    Anyway, I think the answer to your question is, if you need to record more than 12 simultaneous tracks, or you need flexibility in accessing your hardware's inputs and outputs, you need a better program.
    Fortunately, the upgrade cost to LP isn't that much, nor is the crossgrade to Digital Performer...

  • Audio Input Noise After Recent Update

    Something happened after the most recent update, I now have terrible line level hiss/noises when using the built-in input on my MacBook Pro. No trouble with my Firewire audio input though. The noise is really bad and records to track, making me believe that this is an input issue. I'm not positive that it's from the LE8 update (it could have been any recent update) but I've never had this problem before.

    I have the same problem, and when I put my hand on the audio plug I feel something like static electricity.
    I installed 10.4.x, no noise and no electricity
    I don't know any other solution
    My english is really really bad..

  • After the recent upgrade to ios 8 ipad air has no audio coming out

    HI
    After the recent upgrade to ios 8 ipad air has no audio coming out

    I had the same problem until tonight. Played with ring tones, do not disturb, volume, and everything else posted. What I found is that when you go to sounds/text tone, there are two types of tones in the scrolling menu. The top set of tones are for alert tones and the bottom set are ringtones. They are separated by a gray bar that states their purpose. Many of the tones are the same name. You need to set your text alert in the Ringtones and reminders, alarms, and such in alerts. The weird thing about this menu is when you go to sounds/ringtone the menu is reversed. Mine works in locked mode or unlocked now. I have an Iphone 6 8.1.2. My problem started after my latest OS upgrade. Hope this helps.
