No sound in headphones.  Can't hear other tracks when recording.  Need help

I just got Logic. I have a M-Audio Blackbox for my guitar, and a Midi-Uno for my keyboard.
I have play and record and hear my guitar. But when recording, it doesn't play the other tracks, so I can't play along with them.
Also, there is a problem in hearing the sound out of the output, whether it be headphones or the built-in speakers. No sound comes out, even though in the system pref. I hear the beeping to test the output.
This is very annoying because these seem like elementary things that should work but they aren't.

I'm just using built-in audio. I make sure the output in the system prefs is headphones, but then in the software I hear nothing when I play the audio. Maybe I have to check the master audio level.
Thanks for the word about it not being anything too crazy. It can be frustrating when the software doesn't seem to do something basic. I'll look at the master levels during playback.

  • Recording Audio...Can't hear over other tracks when recording!!

    Hello again and thanks for the help. So why, when I'm recording audio, a guitar for example, is the signal so low I can barely hear it above the other tracks. Then, all of a sudden, when I play back what I recorded it almost knocks me back off my seat it's so loud. How do I turn up a track i'm recording enabled track so that I can hear better what's being recorded? This is a problem I've run into myself and when I'm recording others, like a vocalist. I need some way to turn up a "cue" send level even if it's coming out the same monitors that the rest of the mix/track/song is.
    Any tips would be much appreciated. THANKS AGAIN

    I understand that this is directly related to my monitoring capability but am assuming there's some way, INSIDE of Logic, that this level adjustment can be made. Why, when recording, can you barely hear a signal and then when a track is automatically set to 0.0 dB it is much much louder. Why the difference.
    I, too, have a MOTU 828mkII. Admittedly not as good with it as I should be, I need to work more with my monitor mix but this situation seems to often be used to dodge my real question ^ up above. Any tips or tricks are much appreciated so that's cool, but see if you can at least shed some light on what I'm confused about up there^^^^^^
    I DO NOT want to use headphones to record this guitar. Feels more natural for me to record directly into Input 1 of the 828 and hear all the tracks coming out of my monitor while I'm recording the guitar over it. Again, why so quiet when recording and why, then, so loud when no level adjustments have been made when playing back the audio. Again, no level adjustments made on anything and all of a sudden the most recently recording track is louder relative to all others
    thanks

  • I can't hear my keyboard when recording.

    I have a Edirol Midi keyboard PCR-50 and I can record a software instrument with it but There is no monitor so I can't hear what I am recording. How do I turn on the monitoring?
    Unlike when recording a real instrument the stereo/mono/monitor control in the lower right window is not there for the midi/software insruments.

    The organs are kind of different...
    It may be that your keyboard is not sending MIDI data on channel 1.
    Can you reset the keyboard to factory defaults? Sometimes that solves problems like this.

  • Can't hear live track when playing midi drum track

    This is a really dumb question. I've been away from Logic too long. I'm trying to monitor a live guitar track while I play a recorded midi drum beat. I can hear the midi track fine. And I can hear the live guitar track when the midi track is not playing. But as soon as I start playback, the live track goes silent even though the red record enable button is on and the levels show live guitar signal. It just doesn't make it to the output. If I actually record a region, I can hear it. But I don't want to record, I just want to practice with effects and a drum track.
    I've done this before. What have I forgotten?

  • Any idea why I can only hear a caller when I'm using speaker phone?

    Does anyone know why I can only hear a caller when I am using speaker phone? 

    Hi goodferg,
    The troubleshooting steps below may help you with the sound issue you are having with your iPhone 4:
    iPhone: Can't hear through the receiver or speakers
    Resolution
    Verify that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack, including headsets, headphones, or adapters.
    Make sure the Ring/Silent switch is not switched to silent.
    While on the Home screen, adjust the volume buttons. If you see the icon below, indicating that headphones are attached, there may be debris or an object lodged in the headset jack:
    Check the headset jack. If there is an object lodged in the headset jack that is not easily removed, have the iPhone serviced to remove object.
    For Original iPhone: If there is light debris, such as lint, in the headset jack, try connecting a pair of headphones to the headset jack and then remove the headphones. Repeat this several times to remove the debris.
    If you have installed a protective film on the display, either ensure that the receiver is not covered or remove the film completely.
    Check the receiver mesh (which is on the top front of the device, above the display). If it appears blocked, use a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush to carefully and gently brush away any debris.
    If you have paired with a Bluetooth headset that is nearby, either use the headset or turn Bluetooth off (chooseSettings > General > Bluetooth).
    Restart the iPhone.
    If restarting the iPhone doesn't resolve the issue, try restoring the device.
    If the issue persists, go to the Service Answer Center - iPhone for information on service.
    Hope this helps!
    - Judy

  • How can I turn off the sound from the original midi  or audio tracks when I turned on the duplicate tracks for editing ?

    How can I turn off the sound from the original midi or audio tracks when I edit or listen to the duplicate tracks in Logic Pro 9 ?
    I'm using iMac desktop with Mac OS X Version 10.7.3. Pls advise.

    Dan,
    It sounds like one of your preferences has changed.
    Go to preferences > audio > general, and make sure "track mute/solo" is set to "CPU saving (slow response)". It is probably set to "Fast " at the moment.
    This setting (fast) basically causes immediate muting from the channel strip while your song is in play. This is because the audio is still being read from the hard drive, but the channel strip is simply muted.... like a hardware mixer. When set to "CPU saving", the audio from that track, when muted, is actually stopped from streaming from the hard drive, but there is a couple second delay before the audio is actually muted.
    One would think that the fast setting is generally preferable, except when you need to do what you are doing. The only way to keep duplicate copies of channel strips acting independent of one another is to leave this setting on the "CPU saving" setting.
    Hope that helps

    the mute button is a switch you need to flip, not touch. if you look at it and see color, its on.

  • I'm trying to record audio into my iPad2 using GarageBand and an iRig, but I can't monitor my tracks at the same time as recording, meaning if I lay down a drum track and attempt to record guitar, I can't hear the drums while recording. Thoughts?

    I'm trying to record audio into my iPad2 using GarageBand and an iRig, but I can't monitor my tracks at the same time as recording, meaning if I lay down a drum track and attempt to record guitar, I can't hear the drums while recording. Thoughts?

    Hi, I have this exact same problem. I haven't been using an iRig, just a cheap USB-jack cable. I managed to do this with the first cable I bought, but since it broke I've been unable to find a replacement that allows me to hear the drums while recording. DId you manage to get over this issue? If so I would really like to know how. Thanks and best wishes.

  • HT2188 I can hear caller but they can not hear me except when using speaker phone

    I can hear caller but they can not hear me except when using speaker phone

    First of all,  make sure that your iPhone as the most recent iOS available. Check in "Settings>General>Software Update".
    One other problem could be your microphone. Does it work for anything else other than a call?
    Good-Luck!

  • Can't hear second track of Beatles

    I have put the Beatles song in final cut pro call in my life when it gets to the part where the keyboard comes in I can't hear it now when I play the song in Itunes as a mp3 I hear the whole song but when
    I stick it into final cut as a aiff I seem to lose a track any suggestions?

    Thanks for all your help we figured it out, I know you need permission this is just for his own personal use, and half of the song is owned by Sony so you would need Michael Jackson and Sonys permission which takes about 2 to 4 weeks to get for any song which we do through ASCAP and BMI for most of our music.
    Thanks again guys!
