QUESTION ROUTING SOUND!!!!!!!

I was wondering if it was possible to route sound on my macbook pro. For instance, if I plug in headphones, all the sound goes through them and plays in my ears. Same thing for external computer speakers. But my main question is, how can play sound lets say Skype through my laptops speakers but also have music from itunes playing through my headphone jack into my external speakers at the same time. So my computer is outputing sound into 2 sets of speakers.

I would suggest you take this question up in Cycling 74's forums. Since it's not an iTunes question, per se, you'll be more likely to get help in the forums dedicated to that company's products.
Regards.

  • Thanks for the reply to my question regarding sound in iMovie and sending me the online links.  however the online links are impossible to play as they upload too slowly with the result that the playing keeps stopping waiting for the content to catch up

  • Question for Routing Sound

    Alright, I have done several searches on the internet and I'm unclear how to use soundflower. But I honestly don't know if soundflower can do this for me. I have these JBL speakers that I plug into my computer to listen to some jams. When that happens, it disengages the speakers on my laptop. I want a program that allows me to output any type of audio to my JBLs but then have some other audio go to my laptop's speakers. Like if I listen to iTunes on my JBLs, I want to hear my friend's voice on Skype on my laptop's speakers, not the JBLs.
    Add questions if I don't make any sense

  • Questions on sounds and speakers..

    Question1
    What do the sound choices in system preferences do
    vs
    The sound choices in Audio Midi Setup, Audio devices tab?
    Question 2
    When ever there is an external speaker source (i.e. docked in windows speak), i always want it to automatically use the external speakers. These speakers are USB. I seem to have to play with settings when I reconnect to the speakers to change the sound from the internal speakers.
    Question 3
    When I disconnect the external speakers, it automatically moves the sound to play out of the internal speakers (and back to the external when they are reconnected). This is happening via a KVMP switch, but happens with no KVMP switch with speakers just pluged into mac. Is there a way to prevent this from automaticaly happening? Is does not happen if the external speakers use the RCA type 3.5 jack; it only happens with USB speakers.
    Thanks

  • Route sound output to microphone jack?

    Hi,
    I have a 5.1 Soundsystem I want to use.
    My Notebook has 2 headphone jacks and one microphone jack.
    Is it possible to route the sound so that micropone jack outputs front/center headphone1 gives front and headphone 2 gives rear with ALSA?
    I already used the board search and found a thread that links to this page. But I did not really understand what's done in this .asoundrc file.

    You will have to experiment with ttable entries, to see if it will work - see upmixing examples.

  • Routing sound out of logic

    I have just purchased a Korg Monotron and am very pleased with it!
    I am trying to send sound out from Logic into the Monotron, and then filter the audio in the Monotron and record this back into Logic, however I have a problem.
    The audio I want to send out of Logic is routed to outputs '1 & 2' on my Edirol UA-25 interface.
    I take a mono output from one of these outputs on the rear of the interface, and feed this into the Monotron headphone socket.
    The issue is that when the sound is fed back into Logic, I can't hear the filtering effects because it is drowned out by the audio track I am sending out.
    How can I mute the sound of the outputted audio so that I can only hear the subtleties of the filtering effect in Logic.
    Can anyone explain a workaround for this, or is there no solution as the audio always need to be audible to in order leave Logic, or else no sound would be sent.
    Any advice welcome!
    Cheers,
    Mr Rock

    Hi Dat Stream Studio,
    This sounds very promising!
    Can you please confirm when in 'Audio Midi Setup', do I go to 'Audio Devices'.
    If I select 'Audio Devices' then I have two setting- 'Default Output' and 'System Outputs'.
    At present both are set to 'Edirol'.
    Can you please suggest which ones I need to configure as 'Mac Internal'.
    When this has been set up is all sound outputted through 'Mac internal' audio, and do I connect a lead from the iMac headphone socket into the Monotron?
    To get sound back into Logic, should I connect the Monotron into say Input 1 on the Edirol, and then set up an audio track with the 'I/O' plug in set to audio 'Input 1 (and leave the 'output' blank)?
    I look forward to your response.
    Cheers,
    Mr Rock

  • Just bought a Macbook Pro and have questions about sound libraries

    I just bought the lower end Macbook Pro 200 GB Mem/2GB Ram. I installed Logic Studio on it. I have about 129 GB memory left. My question is, how does anybody deal with installing Libraries. On my main desktop, I got a separate hard-drive which holds about 150 GB of sound Libraries which I pretty much use. I could not even put this on my Macbook. I would like to work on my files on my new Macbook but would have half of the sounds missing if I work on an existing file (transferring from my Desktop to my macbook) How does everybody else deal with this. A separate ext HD?
    Thanks

    Hello - It seems to me that there is a total mess on Logic Studio Installer that doesn't allow one to install the Jam Packs onto an external drive, if that's where you keep your sound libraries. Why is no one from Apple responding to this post, probably because they know what a dogs dinner the installer is. The run through on the install insists on a system disk to load all the listed software. My Ibook has no room for all the Jam Packs and other audio data, so I did a basic install of just the program packages, invested in a 250GB firewire portable for my libraries. I then tried to install the Jam Packs onto my external drive but have to go back to the main installer, which although is aware of the application install, insists upon my system drive as the disk to use even when you tell it to install media only. Incredibley bad, bad, bad error Apple. The only work around I can find is to actually install the Jam packs then move them to the external hard drive and then use the browser for access - I have no idea as of yet how this will affect other operations. And why is there not just a simple setting ( like all good programs PROTOOLS , ABLETON LIVE ) where one selects the path for the Library. Still can't believe how bad an error can get onto a finished product from Apple. Kinda totally disgusted, Is this just Garageband with some Bells & whistles? I've been editing sound for film for the last 10 years, so I know my way around, but this is just stupid. If anyone knows the answer , as this is a question as well as a rant please do respond. Maybe someone from Apple ?

  • Possibility to route Sound? (connect headphone and speakers at the same ti

    Hi is it possible to route the sound of my X-FI Titanium (PCIe)?
    I want to connect Headphone and 2. Speakers at the same time and want to be able to decide where the sound comes out.
    It wasnt possible with my previous audigy 2zs, but it thought now it could be possible, because every cheap onboard sound can do that.
    The only solution so far was to choose stereo surround but that wont work in games because most games recognise 4 speakers and some sound is missing.
    Any hints?
    Thanks in Advance

    I used to be able to do that in XP with an SB Li've 024 which?was like 2+2 stereo card before 5. came out.
    Thinking....maybe somethig like [url="http://www.pccables.com/images/05004.jpg">this[/url]?(3.5mm STEREO JACK Y-SPLITTER ADAPTER) plugged into front out for headphones and front speakers.
    You can also get a cable that does similar.

  • Lots of questions about Sound Cards and DJ'ing

    Hello,
    I am thinking about purchasing a MacBook. First some background. I play in a wedding/corporate band who occasionally hires a DJ to play in between our sets. Sometime I just bring out my Ipod and plug in to avoid this cost. Most DJ's we use bring out a laptop and just plug directly into our PA. I started looking into laptops so we could cut out The DJ cost all together.
    In my research I found that Mac's seem to be the Laptop of choice for most DJ's. My question is about the sound card inside the Macs. Is it a good quality. Would I need to upgrade in order for it to sound good going through a PA system. What are the audio outputs for Macs? As I said before I sometimes just use my Ipod and that sounds pretty good but its hard to search for things etc. And which Macbook do you think I should be looking at. The Pro or the regular?
    Thank you for your help.

    . Lithium Ion batteries last at peak performance for about 3 years, or 300-500 charges, whatever comes first. They will still work after this for several years, but at reducing performance.
    2. Sorry, not sure...
    3. Again, not sure. You're taking a risk that the adapter is compatible.
    4. Only you can make that decision. Just look at this and the other players and compare the features and price.
    5. The in-built microphones are not great quality, and really only good for recording interviews and meetings, that type of thing.

  • General question about sound libraries and instruments in Logic

    Hello all...
    I am possibly looking to upgrade from Logic Express 8 to Logic Pro, mostly to take advantage of the vast sound library's and software instruments. My question is to those who are familiar with the sounds, vintage instruments etc. I have a Nord Stage piano with incredible acoustic and electric piano samples...I'm thinking of selling my Nord but I don't want to lose the incredible instrument recreations...can the sounds in Logic Pro compete with the real thing for trained ears?

    I see this type of question all the time.
    It doesn't matter.
    When someone listens to your song it doesn't matter what type of instrument you use, real or not.
    If the melody isn't there, no one is going to remember your song.
    You know when you get the song right when people hum it while walking, taking the bus, etc...
    What they don't talk about is, hey, Sweetsonic used a pretty good Nord on that one song....
    Buy Logic 8 cause the massive amount of instruments you get with it will help you explore other instruments, which can lead to a creative song.
    Look at the Beatles, when George Harrison experimented with the Sitar, they got more classic songs.

  • Questions in sound

    hi, i have actually got two questions...
    the first one is how can i make a download button for a file
    in flash? so that when the user presses it he can have the save as,
    open, etc.. options?
    the second question is concerning dynamic text. is there any
    way i can edit the text and make it into columns or something of
    the sort?
    thanks

    1. if you have flash 8, you can use the filereference class
    2. if you mean you want to arrange text like a newspaper is
    arranged with columns the answer is yes, but there's no easy way to
    do that.

  • Routing Sound Output  - M-Audio 1814

    Hello,
    Just got a Mac Book Pro and am using an M-Audio 1814 as my sound card. The 1814 is connected to my stereo via s/pdif, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to change the output in the system preferences so sound from the web, itunes etc. comes through the s/pdif output rather than the analog channels.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Problem solved...this was the answer for future folks in need:
    In the FW 1814 control panel set the the Digital Port Selection to SPDIF
    Set the SPDIF input port to the desired selection
    Then go into you computers HD and go to Applications>utilities> Audio Midi Setup
    Mske sure you are in the Audio Devices window and click configure speakers
    Set left front to 5 and set right front to 6, then click apply down below

  • Question on Sound forge pro mac with Logic.

    Hello,
    I would liketo know if the plug-ins that come with Sound forge pro Mac could be used with Logic directly like using 3rd party plugins.SF has a whooe bunch of plugins but wil be able to use those plug ins ,like EQ ,Exciter, etc as induvidual plugins on a Logic project without having to export the wav file into Sound Forge?

    The answer is No if it's anything like the PC version. The plugins are proprietary and only usable in Sound Forge, just as Logic's are only usable in Logic.
    However, I don't know this ti be 100%, true.
