Recording into logic 8 with a usb mic

Hi guys
I sorry for this very noobish question but up until now I've been doing all my recording and production in GB and I finally decided to take the plunge into Logic.
How do I record voice via a usb mic that is connected to my mac?
I'm looked and looked and I just cant seem to figure it out.
Thanks very much

Yes aggregate device... I had a Samson C01U USB mic... I could never... no matter what I did... or tried get good recordings without long latency out of that device... After 5 minutes it would start to garble. A reset of the audio units would give me another 5 minutes... Never could get latency down... I gave up and I use regular mic into my firewire Duet now.

Recording into logic from my MPC 1000

Does any one know how to record into logic with an MPC 1000. I've got sync but cant figure out how to get a level.

well the easier way is maybe to transfer ur sample and program to logic via floppy(then u need a floppy drive).or via aksys(then u need the usb option slot on mpc.don't even know if it exist!?).or transfer what u wand digitaly via the coaxial output of the mpc to the optical in of ur mac(then u need a coax2optic converter,and i hope u own a g5 for the optical in)
seriously it's difficult to answer ur question cause there is many different way .u should give more info.
wich mac?
do u have any soundcard?
do u have any optional card output on the mpc?
is there a built in coaxial on the mpc?
did u receive a soft call A.K.S.Y.S with the mpc?
in this particular case u should have a usb port or at least an optional usb card?
etc

Recording into logic from my MPC 1000 Redux

I want to record a four bar drum beat, bass line..etc
Also, I have some existing beats that i made on my MPC before I got Logic that I would like to transfer over to logic. Any thoughts on how to record into logic from my MPC? I can't seem to get any level even though I've got sync.

Is it possible to record into logic...

Hello everyone, this would be my very first post asking for help.
here's our problem. We've been using logic for years, we have just recently purchased Digi HD2 accel system, with a digi 192 I/O, and Control 24.
is it possible to record into logic using this setup? if so, how do we go about setting up logic to be able to do this?
the only we have been able top get sound out of logic thru the 192 an control 24, is by using CoreAudio drivers. The ESB does not get us any sound.
anyone familiar with this setup?
thanks
jz

I guess we'd like to record using TDM within logic. Right now we get sound if we use the Coreaudio drivers, but don't know how to input using Control 24. If we could get advise on how to do it using both Coreaudio and TDM, it would help us greatly.
thanks

I can record voice memos fine using the built-in iPhone 4 mic. And my Bluetooth headset (Jawbone Era) works fine when I leave messages on voice mail systems etc. when calling on the iPhone 4. However, I cannot record voice memos with my Bluetooth mic.

I can record voice memos fine using the built-in iPhone 4 mic. And my Bluetooth headset (Jawbone Era) works fine when I leave messages on voice mail systems etc. when calling on the iPhone 4, so it appears my headset mic is fine. I can also use voice activated dialing, although it fails miserably interpreting numbers. However, I cannot record voice memos with my Bluetooth mic. I just get barely audible static. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Hello, did you ever get an answer to your question? I just picked up a Jawbone Era and using on an iPhone 4s running 5.0.1. Seems to work fine on regular calls, but not on the built in Voice memos application. It worked fine on my older Jawbone Icon, but haven't tested on the 4s or iOS 5.
Thanks!

Just take some valium to slow you down to reality.

Latency in LE8 when recording with a USB Mic

I have used a Samson C01U USB Mic with Garageband on a iMac (2GB RAM) for some time. It’s works great and there is no latency. I upgraded to Logic Express and Latency is now a significant problem. I set up an aggregate device as described in the support FAQ but it doesn’t help the latency. When I first set up a recording session there is no latency on the first take. However, if I stop the recording and go back for another take there is a lot of latency. To fix it I need to exit logic and restart or change and audio setting and change it back. This makes recording very difficult. I have taken known steps to eliminate latency in logic (i.e buffer size =256). I should also note that the mic is connected directly to the iMAC (no hub). Can anyone offer a solution?

Hi,
How many plugins and other tracks are running during your record session? How many plugins are in the recorded channel?
Did you try "low latency mode"
Did you try turning off software input monitoring?
Where exactly does the latency occur? Is it on the recorded track or is it the simple difference between input (your voice) and what you hear through the speakers (out 1-2 mix)?
Please clarify

Inserting records into Table with check table logic in place

I want to insert records into a table, and have the check table to not allow invalid entries. Is there a function out there that will allow this? I am currently using the insert statement and it is working except that it is not giving an error when the value does not exist in the check table for the particular fields.
INSERT INTO ZSD_XREF VALUES WA_XREF.
That is the basic statement I'm using ZSD_XREF has several fields one being the material number field tied to the check table which happens to be MAKT file. The insert statement is not validating the material numbers using the check table, or at least it is not giving an error. Any ideas?

Paul,
Unfortunately, open SQL statements such as INSERT, UPDATE do not go through the check table logic as they directly hit the database layer. Check table checks are performed only if you go through application layer that is when you enter the same data through a screen.
You have to do the checks yourself.
Happy checking!!!

Can't record into Logic through the built-in mike

Hi guys, just faced a strange thing in Logic 8, want to record my voice through my MacbookPro's internal mike, so in Audio preferences I've put an in-built input, in System preferences put input and output to in-built speakers and mike, but I can't move the track level meter in Logic with my voice at all, and there's no waveform, no sound is going inside, i got just an empty audio region, while in the System's preferences window the level meter moves when I'm saying sth...What can it be?Anyone faced the same?
Thank you

you need to select the build in microphone as the input in Logic Audio preferences as well.
it's the 1st on the drop down menu in Input Device Logic's Audio prefs.
And mute the output of the build in speakers or wear headphones

Help. I cannot record into Logic express 8!!!!

Sup people. I am having trouble recording in Logic 8 express. I have checked the setting of the computer and yes My audio interface (alesis multimix firewire) is set as the input and output device. I can record sound in to garage band. I can do a test and see the meters go up and down in the systems preference sound settings, but I can't record a **** thing from external audio. Can anyone who is using logic 8 help me and maybe give me somethings I haven't thought about? I'm about to pull my hair out cuz I just got logic 8 express and this program is great. Oh, and yes I set the audio in logic to software monitoring. Yes I pressed the R button to arm the track for recording. Yes I pressed the I for input monitoring. Anyways.....SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!!

I assume you're hitting the round RECORD button in the Transport window, after arming the track, and not the arrow button? I've made THAT mistake too many times.
I'm assuming you've selected audio tracks (not MIDI), if you're recording audio -- made that mistake a few times, too.
I'm using the Alesis, too. I'll try to remember all my trial-and-error lessons and see if I come up with something else.
A few things coming to me....I did need to reinstall the Alesis drivers. On first attempt, there were several glitches, until I did the re-install. And....as mentioned earlier....powering up with the Alesis is most important....and appropriate settings in the Audio/MIDI Setup utility....and consistent settings between that utility and Logic PREFERENCES & SETTINGS: e.g. 44.1khz--44.1khz, or 48-48, etc. Sorry if this is rudimentary, but they're all mistakes I've made at one time or another.

Trouble with snoowball usb mic in GB3....low volume levels or bad clipping

I have rebooted the computer several times. This usb mic has no driver software and was working fine until I got a audio core driver message of some sort.
Any pointers?

dollarblower,
If it's not the Snowball, then I'm not sure.
You can give the following a try; I don't know if it will help you, but it won't hurt you, and it often solves weird issues in GB:
Use Disk Utility to repair your system permissions (/Applications/Utilities);
Then, trash your GarageBand Preference files (don't worry, it will replace them; you can reset any prefs to what they were in the app)
Search for the two files:
com.apple.garageband.cs -and-
com.apple.garageband.plist
and discard them.
(Normally, they are in /Library/Preferences/ or in user/Library/Preferences/
but do a search to make sure you get all the copies.)

I was recording with a usb mic then i got a audio interface with mic plug ins and i cant get the mic to rec. or even make sound on garageband... help me please

how can i get my microphone to be detected through my midi device and have garageband be able to pick up the signal so i can record....please help me

Hi there,
Perhaps this will help with your problem. I assume that you connected your interface to USB input in your computer. Now, if the connection is correct and this interface is compatible with your computer, your computer will recognize it and accept it so to speak. In my case, when I connected APOGEE duet interface for the first time to my computer, the message window appeared on the screen asking if I want to use this device as input and output. But even though I clicked on "yes", I still had to do necessary adjustment in GarageBand (GB). If after connecting your device there isn't any message on the screen of your computer, go to System Preferences on the dock, open it, click on Speaker (sound) icon and see if the name of your device is there. If everything is OK, it should be there under input and output. Assuming that it's there, open GB, choose any project that you already have, if you don't have anything yet, create a new one. You don't have to record anything at this time. So after you open any project, click on GarageBand on menu bar in upper left corner of your screen, then click on Preferences, then on Audio/MIDI right after General. When you open Audio/MIDI you'll see two "windows", one for audio output, other for audio input. When you click on these little black arrows in both "windows" you should see your interface listed there, if it's there, choose it as input and output. Now you're set and ready to go. If you have MIDI device connected to your computer it'll also show there. For example, 0 MIDI Input(s) detected if you don't have any devices connected, or 1, or 2 MIDI Input(s) detected and so on. Hope this will help.
Cheers!

Importing a Skype recording into iMovie with BOTH audio channels intact

Today I bought Call Recorder from ecamm; this is software designed to record video and/or audio from Skype conversations. Today I successfully recorded a Skype phone call, resulting in a .MOV file that contained both people in the conversation. But when I export this file into iMovie, I get only one voice!
I've converted the .MOV file to MP3, Apple Lossless, and m4a formats, but I still get only the person on the other end of the line, without my voice included in the file.
How can I export the file into iMovie so that BOTH channels are retained?
Thank you!

Lennart usually quotes Fred Shippey on this:
If it's an AVCHD hard disc camcorder, try using Voltaic for converting to DV format. (..I haven't tried that - I don't have a hard disc camcorder - so I don't know how easy or not it is..)
For other kinds of non-tape camcorder, e.g; miniDVD, hard disc, memory chip, the usual means is to use MPEG Streamclip (..which is a free download..) and you'll also need Apple's MPEG-2 Component, which is a $19.99 download from Apple.
In both cases, convert to .dv.
Oooh, sorry Lennart; I didn't see you there!

If i sign into itunes with a usb cord and my phone comes up with a different name , will all my phone information be ransferred into that persons phone??

can my phones contacts, messages etc be linked with another phone if our apple ids are different??

Of course not. Apps are not deleted if you change your Apple ID on any of your devices. However, you will need the old Apple ID to update those applications, unless you download them with the new Apple ID.
iCloud lets you choose if you want to delete or keep your data stored on iCloud. The only exception is for documents stored on iCloud, which are deleted if you change your iCloud account

How to record an audio clip in Premiere Pro cc with USB mic on PC
