Recording The Sound/Audio

When I use iMovie 09 to make a video it doesn't record the sound and i know for a fact the built in microphone works. What do I need to do to enable it to record the sound again while I'm recording my videos?

Hi Life93,
What you describe would be possible by recording your video, then removing the audio from it and adding audio from GarageBand once the video is in iMovie (I presume here that you are using iMovie for your video production. Other applications may need different methods.)

    It is no different thing than Flash or Flex apart from the libraries/Classes which will help you interact with the Native OS.

  • How to record the sound from a website on Satellite A100-307

    I have a Satellite A100-307.
    Audio record properties show only CD, Micro and Line as possible inputs
    I want to record sounds (music) which I hear when I visit sites on the Internet
    On other PC's, I select the Wave or Wave/MP3 input and it works
    I Cannot find this option on my PC
    Please help by indicating how to solve this problem
    Thanks in advance

    Hi
    What sound card was installed on other notebooks??
    I have got 2 notebooks at home. One Satellite and one from other manufacture but I do not found such option like you have described.
    There is no recording from the wave or mp3. The sound card does not support such function.
    I think its not possible to record from other audio source. I think you can only use the external micro jack as a recording source because the line-in jack is not available on this unit.

  • Trying to record the sounds in my casio keyboard to garageband

    I have a decent quality casio keyboard with midi.The midi works fine when recording midi sounds in garageband.However I will occasionally want to use the sounds built into my keyboard since some of them are better than the garageband sounds.
    Ive taken a line out from the keyboard and connected it to the audio in port on my mac and set up a new track as a real instrument track.As soon as I do this the green volume indicaters go to halfway and Im not able to record anything.Im just getting a load of distorted inteference.Im using the built in input in garageband.
    The only way Im able to record the keyboard is through the built in mic in garageband which is picking up the keyboard sounds but it doesnt sound too great.
    What am I doing wrong?
    Cheers

    hi bro , i use my irig to connect my guitar to garageband, before i upgrade the system it's all fine , but after i upgrade the system to mountain lion , my instrument cannot be founded. and my line input cannot receive signals as well, i'm using irig and  the cable is fine . Is there any solution for this issule : ) thanks

  • Recording the played audio

    How do I record my play back onto a new track, ie recording all the drums to one track.
    I have a loop playing and I want to record the loop onto another track so I can use it in the song.
    Anyone know how to do that?
    Thanks,

    Logic 9: Bounce in place
    Logic 8: Either Bus recording - assign the Software Instrument to a Bus and use that Bus as an Inut for a new Audio track - then record in realtime. Or bounce the loop and reimport it onto an Audio track.

  • When importing a clip to adobe premiere elements 11 the sound on the video doesnt appear in the audio

    audio help

    if7yg
    What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 11 running on? If Mac, was your purchase the Adobe Premiere Elements 11 Editor from the Mac App Store?
    Be that as it may, what are the properties of the video audio file that you are importing in Premiere Elements 11?
    A quick way might be for you to tell us the brand/model/settings of the camera that recorded the video audio file (including the file extension of the file).
    When the file reaches the Expert workspace Timeline which is the case
    a. no sound, but audio file is represented on Audio 1
    b. no sound, audio file not represented on Audio 1
    c. no sound, audio file represented on Audio 1 and, when you toggle the Audio Display Style to waveform, you
    see or do not see a waveform.
    (to the left of the word Audio 1 is a speaker icon...clicking on that icon toggles the audio track display...one of the
    two choices is the waveform).
    Assuming Premiere Elements 11 on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit for now, go to Libraries/Documents/Adobe/Premiere Elements/12 and delete the complete contents of the Media Cache Files Folder that you find there. Then open the program and determine if the audio problem persists. Look to the bottom right of the workspace to observe any "conforming" activity in progress when you import the file.
    We will be watching for your follow up.
    Thank you.

  • Recording the Test Oscillator 1khz tone as audio?

    Hi everyone, I'm pretty sure this must be possible but can I record the sound from an instrument track onto an audio track? I'm just trying to record the test oscillator so that I have a 1khz tone in Audio format so that I can callibrate my turntables and dj mixer properly and hopefully figure out a few of the balance issues going on. Thanks in advance, cheers,

    Hi Graham, in case you can't figure out how to record the instrument onto an audio track, here's a link to free downloadable test tones etc :

    No. Preferably one records using direct input.
    Your comment  It doen’t matter whether he/she is recording the audio from the macbook or any external speakers because if the room is noisy than obviously the ambient room noise will be recorded.  is pretty silly really. Think about what you just wrote.

  • Recording through the Mac Audio Tracks rather than through the Mic.

    I figured this would be very handy since I'm just recording the sound from a YouTube video, I don't want to have to use the mic to record the sound, If it's possible to save the Mac Audio Tracks, which is basically anything that comes out of the speaker, to a file to be used by Garageband later? Or is there a way to record, not through the mic, but using the Mac Audio Track through Garageband? It would help because I realized when I recorded through the mic that I had to worry about everyone around me being quite for a few seconds only to realize that the fan was running full boar which made the quality terrible. Just looking for an alternative. Maybe a program that records the Mac Audio Tracks? Sorry for the long-winded post.

    I know a way around this as I had the same problem once. I bought a small lead with stereo mini jack to stereo mini jack which enabled me to connect the headphones socket to the line/mic in socket. This means that any sound your computer makes can be recorded directly using any recording application, including Garageband. No fear of extraneous noise as it is a direct connection not microphone. There may well be a purely 'software' method also but I can confirm that this does work anyway.

  • How can I record what the sound card is outputting?

    I have an app. that I need to be able to capture what the
    sound card is outputting.  That is I want to record anything that plays
    from the sound card.  I don't want to
    have to route the speaker out to the mic in.  Is there a way to
    "capture" the sound as it is being played?
    Thanks
    Bob

    As I understand you would like to record the sound (wave, midi, others...) generated by a third party application without a cable loop between soundcard output and any soundcard input (mic, line, aux).
    Have you already tried to set the record input on the recording control panel of Windows to stereo mix and to use any standard labview vi (eg: snd read waveform) for recording?

    You have two basic options. One is to use a commercial screen recording app with access to system audio built into the app and the other is to add a system extension like SoundFlower that allows the QT X screen recorder to access/record the system audio. I use the former so I am not that familiar with SoundFlower but there should be several posts to this forum covering this topic.

  • How can I use the sounds of the Yamaha Motif XF6 in Logic Pro 9?

    I have Logic Pro 9 on my Mac Book. I also have a Yamaha Motif XF 6 synthesizer. Instead of using Logic's software instruments I would like to record the sounds of the Motif directly into Logic.
    I have been told that an audio interface is necessary for this. What kind of audio interface would be good for this? Any in particular?
    And, once I have obtained the interface, what steps do I need to take to hook up the Motif into Logic to utilize the Motif's sound bank?
    Detailed steps would help, as this is new stuff for me.
    Thanks!

    Since this is a user forum only, and your questions will take a lot of time to answer you might want to check both the Logic manual and the XF6 manual. The XF6 has possibilities such that you may not need and Audio interface if the Firewire option is present.
    Also you have a built in USB MIDI interface as well, you will need to download the Yamaha MIDI driver.
    Read Exploring Logic Pro, especially chapter five, you can record your performance via MIDI, edit it and then commit to audio.
    Dig in.

  • Is there a way to pre-record the timing of the slides and effects in a keynote presentation, so that you can present it without having to press anything?

    Hi! It would be great if someone could tell me how to pre-record timings in a keynote presentation, so that when presented, it plays by itself, based on the pre-set recordings. I know there is a way to do it by going to      Inspector>Document> Audio> Record          However when you do this, your computer also records the sounds it picks up with the microphone, which can greatly affect the sound. I have Keynote '09. Thanks in advance!

  • The best audio interface with Mac Mini using new & existing equipment?

    Hi,
    I got my existing set-up back in 2003. I'm now about to update it.
    I've talked to Apple Technical Support re which computer is best for me.
    Some important questions remain in terms of the audio interface or sound bridge I should use.
    I've detailed below my existing set-up, my existing configuration, my desired set-up (as recommended by Apple expert) and questions I have.
    Existing set-up:
    Hardware...
    1. ViewSonic HDMI 1080p Full HD LED monitor
    2. PowerMac G4 (PowerPC processor) computer
    3. PCI-424 soundcard within computer (works in conjunction with MOTU 2408 mk3 unit)
    4. MOTU 2408 mk3
    5. Quested monitors
    6. Focusrite Session Pack ff ISA220 compressor
    7. MOTU micro lite (midi-usb interface)
    8. Keyboard (yet to choose - I'll explain later)
    9. ADK Tube Condenser Commemorative Edition microphone
    10. ADK Tube Condenser Commemorative Edition microphone power box (supplies both power and phantom power)
    Software...
    11. Tiger 10.4.11 operating system
    12. Logic Studio 8 music program
    Desired set-up:
    1. ViewSonic HDMI 1080p Full HD LED monitor
    2. Mac Mini full spec = £999.00
    3. _______________________________________
    4. _______________________________________
    5. Quested monitors
    6. _______________________________________
    7. _______________________________________
    8. _______________________________________
    9. ADK Tube Condenser Commemorative Edition microphone
    10. ADK Tube Condenser Commemorative Edition microphone power box (supplies both power and phantom power)
    Software...
    11. Top-end operating system = Comes with Mac Mini
    12. Logic Pro X music program = £139.99
    Existing configuration:
    ViewSonic HDMI 1080p Full HD LED monitor goes into PowerMac G4 (PowerPC processor) computer
    PCI-424 soundcard within computer (works in conjunction with MOTU 2408 mk3 unit)
    MOTU 2408 mk3 used as my audio interface for sound in and sound out. This means that the sound comes out of computer via the MOTU 2408 and out of my Quested monitors (they are active so self-powered) which are attached to the MOTU's outputs.
    When I record vocals I sing into my ADK microphone (this microphone sources its own power from its own box which also feeds it Phantom Power) which is connected by a mic to jack cable to the Focusrite compressor which is connected by jack to jack cable to the MOTU 2408 which then goes into my computer via a firewire cable.
    When I play keyboards or use my keyboard as a midi controller it connects to my computer via the MOTU micro lite (midi-usb interface).
    I don't currently have a keyboard. I used to use my basic Yamaha PSR-540 keyboard as a midi controller but as it's not weighted and faulty I needed to get a new one. We got a new one via Thomann which was the M-Audio Pro Keys 88 keyboard but this quickly became faulty. We returned it and have since been considering other weighted keyboards. I am simply wanting a keyboard with Aftertouch, either 76 or 88 keys, weighted keys and very importantly, hammer action where the action is fast. I don't care for other controllers on the keyboard, on-board sounds, iPad compatibility or whatever.
    My Questions:
    Q1) Can you recommend any keyboards meeting my specifications?
    Q2) I can't imagine any of the Blue or other USB mics competing with my ADK and I'm quite happy with it. For vocals and when I've wanted to play the keyboard in as audio (not as a midi controller) I've used the Focusrite compressor to boost the sound. I'm not using many functions/presets on the compressor as I know it's best to record the sound of vocals mostly raw, is this correct, and if so is it worth me continuing to use this compressor or sell it?
    Q3) Do I need to have the MOTU micro lite (midi to usb) unit? Don't most keyboards these days connect direct usb to usb on the computer?
    Q4) I'm happy and used to the sound out from my Quested monitors. I'm happy and used to the sound in using my ADK microphone. What do I need for these to work best with the Mac Mini? Is my MOTU 2408 good for this, or is another MOTU product needed, or another product altogether?
    Q5) Depending on (Q4) do I need a soundcard installed in the Mac Mini as I read on a forum that these days the audio interface acts like the soundcard?
    Q6) I have such a bad connection to the internet it's like I have Dial-up!!! I use Airport Wireless which is connected to a router downstairs, which is 02 Broadband. Internet's not an issue downstairs on my girlfriend's intel PC which also uses a wireless connection but not Airport. Is this a problem because of my Airport, or do I need to get a router for upstairs, or should I connect it directy to the router downstairs by ethernet cable?
    Many thanks!
