No audio input signal

Hi,
I'm having a problem getting an audio signal(line in), the output response is there, but not input(no recording), I'm using a RME DIGI96/Pad as audio interface. interface and core audio have been assigned. Help

You'll need LineIn to playthru the Audio from Input to Output.

    just  the audio, eh?. If you were using DVI or DisplayPort that might be different, but for audio alone, it shouldn't be that hard.  Just grab a 3.5 mm stereo plug to 2 rca cables adapter. Plug the smaller end into the back of your Mac Pro (or the Front), where you see either the headphone or speaker icon). Alt-click on the speaker icon at the top of your screen to show all audio inputs and outputs. Make sure it's set to Line Out.  Plug the red and white end into the audio in jacks on the back of your tv and set it to the correct input. I don't know if your tv will allow just the audio to play. Usually one has to connect up something else, but hopefully I'm wrong.  If you were using DVI, or DisplayPort, you'd need an active DVI--HDMI adapter or a DisplayPort to HDMI adapter, but
    I don't know for sure

  • Why am I not getting any input signal into logic X or GarageBand from my audio interface?

    Hello all,
    I'm completely new to all this so I will try my best here to give all the details needed.
    So, I am using a Mac mini (2013 model: i7 overclocked at 2.6, 16 gbram) and a focusrite saffire pro 24DSP. Overall both are in perfect working order.
    My problem, however, is that I am seemingly unable to get any form of signal from my saffire into either Logic X or GarageBand. I am trying to record guitar lined in and I have set all the settings in logic to what I think is right (software monitoring checked, output channels selected, saffire selected for both input and output) and I have set up my saffire mix control - I spent days reading the manual and watching online tutorials.
    The saffire mix control is set up thus:
    Input 1 - instrument
    Daw 1+2 = GarageBand
    Daw 3+4 = Logic X
    Sample rate 41Khz
    Master Output = stereo monitor mix (line outs 1 &2 to my monitor speakers)
    Output 3+4 headphones
    Is there anything missing here?
    As far as this all goes, when I plug in my guitar I can get a very clear "raw" signal from the saffire mix control, but when I then go to set up a track in either DAW and assign the necessary line ins and outs, no matter what I do I cannot get an input signal, not even a partial one (I have the monitoring and record armed options checked btw). I am close to giving tearing my hair out.
    I'm sure I am just missing something out?
    Thanks in advance :-)

    I've plugged into the interface a mic and an electric guitar.
    I'm not sure what I did but the guitar is coming through (though it shows no signal on the interface). Mic input level on line, mic registers a tiny bit of sound when I hit the mic (on only one channel) but doesn't register any vocals when mic input is turned up to the max.
    Odd thing: stereo/mono button reversed that is when the button is pushed in it equals stereo on the head phones when it says it should be mono and when the button is left unpushed it equals mono when it says it should be stereo.
    Monitor is on and volume is at max.
    GB system preferences don't list Input 1 or/and 2. Where do I find them?
    I've tried everything I can think of. It feels as if I just need to find the right switch but I don't know where to look...

  • How do I use the built-in audio input with AU Lab?

    I just tried AU Lab for the first time, and I can't select an audio input.
    The "Create New Document" window lets me choose "Built-in Output", but the pulldown for Input Source is greyed out. The area under the "Input" button says, "Audio Input Not Supported". How can it not support the built-in audio input? I even tried using SoundFlower to route the signal from the Line In (a small app) to the Input of AU Lab. AU Lab's display then shows two channels from Soundflower, but they are still greyed out.
    All I want to do is get a signal from the built-in audio input routed to AU Lab so I can use AU effects to process the audio signal in real time. How do I do this?

    They comes configured with your software. If you want to use, for example, Skype, you need to run the configuration wizard section.
    Best regards.

  • Why doesn't my audio input work?

    I have a Macbook with OS X and have never been able to get an external microphone to produce sound on the computer. I was using an old pair of headphones but the brand new pair I bought also do not produce any sound. They are the basic headphones with a mic attached and plug into the Macbook using two mini-plugs in the two audio ports (one for input, one for output). I can hear sounds in the headphones just fine. But I'm only able to talk if I use the internal microphone on the Macbook, which is inconvenient as it picks up too much background noise. I'd rather use the external mic.
    When I got into my preferences > sound > input, there are two choices there:
    Internal microphone -- type: Built-In
    Line In -- type: Audio Line-in Port
    I select the second option and nothing works. Am I missing something here?

    Well, FWIW, I did a lot of searching on here and it seems that this type of basic, unpowered mic will not work with my Macbook Pro (OS 10.7.5) and that any audio input has to be powered in some way -- a cd player for example that provides a powered signal into a pair of headphones or into the computer. I bought one of those very basic $15 headsets with microphone from Wal-Mart. Two different brands failed to produce any sound. (though the sound OUTPUT to the headphones works just fine)
    Oddly enough, I did call Apple Tech Support and they were confused and unaware of why the headset' mic shouldn't work just fine. So apparently, this is not a "known" issue. So I'm just going to pay a little more and go buy a Bluetooth or USB headset.

  • Audio input and output

    I am trying to get audio to play through from the audio input to the audio output. I have plugged a line-level keyboard into the audio input and as I play it, it shows that it has plenty of input level in the sound panel of the system preferences. However, there is no sound coming out. I have tried speakers, headphones and the Griffin IMic. If I use a program like SoundStudio3 and click the audio "thru" button it works fine, but it does not work without.
    Is there a THRU switch that I am missing somewhere? I tried the Applications/Utilities/AudioMIDI setup to configure it, but the Thru button at the bottom is greyed out (not in operation).
    Thanks.

    Hi Rich,
    Welcome to apple forum.
    In my opinion, I don't think OS X have the capability to sent the audio input "THRU" to output directly (I could be wrong).
    You need to use Garage band or third party software like you mention before to allow it.
    Maybe if you connect third party device that is "supported" the signal become audible and you can hear it. Like mBox using core audio driver.

    Good Luck.

  • Mac mini audio input

    It says that the mac mini has "optical digital audio input/audio line in" (http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/wa/RSLID?nnmm=br owse&mco=9BF2D40D&node=home/desktop/mac_mini), but i've tried two microphones now and neither work.
    Both work fine on my PC.
    I've checked the audio in volume and it's turned up to max.
    How do I get audio input to work on my mac? Do I have to buy an apadter? It says in the specs that it supports both analog AND digital input...

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    As an alternative to a pre-amp to bring the mic up to a compatible line-level signal, you might want to look at something like a Griffin iMic (http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/imic/) which would resolve the problem via USB.

  • HT4619 How to test the audio input port

    How do you tell if the Audio in port is functioning. I have tried everything and cannot get the computer to accept audio from the external mic. or guitar.

    The audio input port is line-level and will not pickup the week signal from an un-amplified mic or guitar pickup.
    To test the audio input, try an iPod, stereo receiver or something that has a built in amplifier.
    To use an un-amplfied mic or guitar, you will need something like a > MXL iBooster or a USB > Griffin iMic.

  • Tech Specs of the audio input jack? (which is better, an iMic, or the MBP?)

    Well because the iMic has such a cheap sounding/terrible audio output....
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2132385&tstart=0
    ....I am trying to figure out which would be better for the audio INPUT?
    I am surprised to see that both the iMic and the combined jack on the 13" MacBook Pro seem to record in stereo, but technical wise, which is better? I DO know that the iMic is better for non-amped mics, that the iMic will pre-amp the signal where as the MBP will only accept line-in signals. So other then that, which is better?
    Thanks,
    Scott

    Well, I sent back the iCrap...I mean iMic. I had to take a loss of $10 but oh well. (stupid apple return policy.)
    Anyways, my solution was to buy a similar adapter off ebay for only $7. This USB interface is not a brand name one, it is one of those "china knock-off's" but it works. The Audio output it a lot louder but still slightly distorts like the iMic. However, the audio input works just fine. So my solution is to use BOTH the external USB interface, and the jack on the MBP at the same time. That will give me the best of both worlds. AND, it only cost $7 and came in 3 days, vs the adapter I bought from apple that coast over $35 and took a MONTH to ship.

  • Xbox digital audio input and then output through MacBook digital audio port

    Hi,
    Sorry if this has been asked before but I'm trying to output a Dolby Digital (I think AC3) signal from my Xbox 360 into the MacBook's digital audio input and then output it through the digital audio output. I can output 5.1 sound from the MacBook itself but I can't get the Xbox audio to pass through. I don't know if the audio is at a sample rate not supported or needs decoding or what!
    Any help would be appreciated!

    If that doesn't work, I'm not quite sure.
    A combination of the Audio MIDI Utility (in Applications/Utilities), SoundSource, LineIn, and Soundflower (http://cycling74.com/products/soundflower/) might work, otherwise I'm stumped. Your best bet is probably a dedicated external USB or FireWire audio interface.

  • 9.2 Update killed my audio input monitoring during play!

    I can monitor my audio input while I'm stopped, but as soon as I loop and play (not in record mode) it automatically kills monitoring of the signal. YET, I can still record if I need.
    This didn't happen until I updated to 9.2.
    Has anyone else had this problem?
    Thanks!

    I got other problems after updating Logic, they occured twice. One was not having 'open recent session' and the other was not having 'incompatible' plugins menu item in Logic AUs. Perhaps this is similar to my problem and the solution was to trash Logic preserences and rebooting. Try it, you don't loose anything that way. I'm not at my mac now but the preferences can be in MacHD/library/Preferences (start with com.apple.logic) or in your user Library/preferences. There are 2 files and I'm not sure which one but if you trash both (without deleting the files, only trash) you can try if it brings the requested feature back. One of the files will reset your settings but if you restore it after the test you will have them back (of course with the 'bug' itself. Later today I will pot you the exact one to throw.

  • Frequency Response VS FFT for measring frequency response of a audio ouput signal.

    We have purchased the Sound and Vibration Toolkit and I have some questions.
    From the frequency response example I looked at you measure the input then the ouput and the Vi gives you the difference.
    I want to measure the audio frequency response a radio. 
    So all I have is the output I dont have the audio input  to use as a reference. 
    How would I measure frequency response with the frequency rasponse VI with only the output audio signal?
    I was also looking at the FFT example to measure the audio signal frequency response.
    But from what I can tell so far this only does 1 channel I want to do both channles at the same time.
    Is there a way to do FFT on 2 channels at once and have them output on the same graph?
    Thanks for any help you can provide.

    Hi,
    I was looking through the examples and If you look at the SVXMPL_Multichannel FFT (simulated) examples, this shows how to take an FFT with multiple signals. You just pass in an array of the waveforms.  If you need to put your signals together you can use the merge signals VI, which is located in the Express»SignalManipulation Pallette.  Let me know if you need any further help with this issue.
    Have a great day,

  • Cant record into to logic pro 9 using samson l1200 live mixer, System/Pref/Audio input tab says selected device has no input control

    Hi Im new to this so bare with me..When I connect my Samson l1200 live usb mixer to my Imac 7,1 Intel duo core 3gb ram, osx10.6.8, via usb cable to record vocals/instruments, in System Pref/Audio/Output tab is set to mixer's UsbAudioCodec driver, (Im able to hear playback into headphones via the mixer, and hear the mic when spoken into it but cant record a track into Logic...System/Pref/Audio input tab says selected device has no input control, Ive set the input/output settings in Logic to UsbAudioCodec but still no good...Would it be either the way the mixer is set up? or is this mixer (Samson l1200) not compatible with my particular Imac? I hope I may be able to help as Im only a student trying to record my band thanks

    I perfectly understand your problem.
    First... just to make sure, in Logic's preferences /Audio make sure Universal Track Mode IS checked, it should be enabled. (I think it probably is just checking)
    Second... if you record a track in a new Logic project and then go to the next track to record an overdubbed guitar part, are both parts recorded on the 2nd track?
    What I'm asking is overdubbing working differently for two or three recorded tracks as opposed to overdubbing with an imported track.
    What I think is happening is you have the main stereo output being recorded into Logic so if you playback an imported or recorded track from Logic while recording a 2nd track (overdub), both are going to be recorded on the 2nd track.
    I took a look at the manual, here's the relevant sections.
    34 – SEND – USB input send switch 
    The USB INPUT switch allows you to select one of
    two stereo (or two channel) signal paths to feed the
    USB output to send to the connected PC. When the
    INPUT switch is in the up position, the USB signal will
    feed from the MAIN left right mix. When the INPUT
    switch is in the down position, the USB signal will
    feed from the AUX 1 and AUX 2 buses which enables
    you to create a unique mix to send to the PC.
    35 – RETURN – USB return switch
    The USB RETURN switch allows you to select one of
    two stereo return paths to receive USB audio from
    the connected PC. When the ASSIGN switch is in the
    up position, the USB signal will return to the MAIN
    mix bus. When the ASSIGN switch is in the down
    position, the USB signal will return to the last pair
    of stereo channels which enables you to playback a
    recorded track in the MAIN mix, and you can use the
    channels AUX sends to feed any of the AUX buses.
    This will let you hear the USB playback tracks in the
    monitor mixes.
    36 – MONITOR – USB headphone enable switch
    Press the USB MONITOR switch down if you want
    to hear the signal from the USB return in the
    headphones.

  • No input signal (relates to Native Instruments Guitar Rig 5)

    Hi
    I have scoured the net and this forum for solutions to this bizarre problem, but found nothing that solved my problem. Alos posted this question on the Native Instruments forum, but have had no replies).
    Tech details:
    I have a MAC Mini 10.8.3. My audio Interface is a Steinberg UR22. I use Logic Pro 9.1.8.
    I have downloaded the GR 5 demo. It shows up and loads fine in Logic. Unfortunately, however, there is no input signal at all coming through to GR. Input and output paths in both MAC and Logic are all switched correctly to Steinberg. Audio Software Monitoring is also selected in Logic Audio. I have also selected and deselected the L and R channel icons in GR with no results, still no input signal. I have swapped audio input channel on the Steinberg. The cable works and is plugged in so it's not one of those Duh! moments either.
    Now the funny part: As mentioned, when I open GR inside a Logic project, I get no input signal.
    However, when i go to my NU folder and open GR there, I do get an input signal. I also get the 'file' etc tabs at the top and am able to check settings etc (which of course you can't do when you open GR inside Logic). However, any changes made in GR when it is opened in the folder do not affect the GR opened inside Logic, so there is no point changing anything in the settings.
    The only other strange thing is that in the GR that does have an input signal...it plays both the GR sound that is selected as well as the 'dry' guitar sound, therefore messing up the real sound.
    The fact that I do get a signal in GR when I open it outside of Logic does not help me at all, I need a signal in GR inside of the Logic project so i can make a test recording.
    Does anyone here have a any suggestion or tips please?

    First... when a plugin is used in Logic it is not standalone, in other words, If you aren't getting signal into Logic the plugin will not receive signal on it's own, that's not the way it works. The GR demo is inserted in Logic's signal path, if the signal is not getting into logic it's not going through the GH.
    Alos, Logic runs indepently from the Mac's Audio preferences, so it doesn't matter what you set the Mac's system preferences to, it's only matters how you have Logic's preferences set.
