Still Can't USB mic to work in Logic 8

Tried just about everything to get a Blue Snowball USB mic to work. Set up the Audio Preferences--which recognizes the mic and shows levels--but in Logic 8, the Core Audio setting never recognizes it, and just stays with Built-in audio. Someone said something about an aggregate device but the manual is very unclear on this. Help, please.
Thanks.

Not sure the answer to your question specifically, as I've never seen a device that shows up in Sound in System Preferences but does NOT show up in Logic's audio preferences. However, if you're looking for more info on Aggregate Devices, check this out:

  • USB Mic not working in Premiere Pro CS6 for Mac

    So I've been editing in Premiere Pro CS6 on a mac for 6 months now.  I have to do a temp VO for a project and I thought I'd try the Narration feature in the mixer.  For some reason my USB mic doesn't show up in the Audio Hardware so I can't pick it.  The same mic shows up in the Mac Audio Settings and even shows up in Audition.  I've been having to use Audition but was curious to see if anyone out there has gotten a USB mic to work in Premiere Pro on a Mac.  Would be a really cool feature if it worked.

    Some USB mics work fine, but many do not. It can depend on the exact mic, or might require a different ASIO driver (maybe something like ASIO4All?), or different ASIO setting, to work.
    Good luck,

  • Can't get mic to work on Acer TravelMate P

    Hello there Arch forum.
    @mod
    I'm not sure if this post is best placed in laptop/media or newbie corner, I have used Arch for 2 years now but I'm a noob on pulseaudio.
    Feel free to move it to the desired location.
    Anyone have any suggestions on how to get my head set microphone to work in mumble on my Acer TravelMate P laptop.
    I have tried different things that was suggested on the PulseAuido Troubleshooting page.
    But I think its a problem with a hardware button that can mute the microphone located just beneath the screen.
    When press the button nothing happens..
    Output of some commands.

    Re: Can't get Mic to work? I'm using the Steelseries Siberias headset, with a standalone Zalman mic. I never unplugged them, I only reformatted from a cracked verion of Windows 7, to a legit version of Windows 7. The versions were actually the exact same, and now I regreat Formatting.

  • Still can't get airplay to work!!!!!

    Grrrrrrrrr. Still can't get airplay to work with either my iPad or my iPhone to my atv2. Everything has the latest firmware, including my airport extreme. Airplay is turned on in options on the atv2.
    Everything is on the same network. I even switched networks but still nothing.
    I do not see the blue icon that let's me stream to the tv.
    What the heck am I doing wrong?

    Hi,
    Your profile indicates you are running v10.5.7. If that's the case, you need to update your system software to v10.5.8 which is the minimum requirement for the iPad.
    Click the Apple () menu then click: Software Update...
    And make sure Bluetooth is not enabled on either the iPad or the iPhone. Tapping Settings / General / Bluetooth.

  • Both internal and USB mics not working

    Hi there, all. Long-time lurker, first-time poster. Starting last night, I have been having issues with microphone use on my iBook G4. Neither the internal mic nor my USB headset mic (Altec Lansing AHS302USB) are accepting input.
    The internal mic's failure doesn't surprise me, as I have heard about the delicate nature of the wire connecting the internal mic from its position on the display down to the main computer. It's the USB mic that confuses me, since USB mics are what everyone seems to recommend that people use when the internal mic is on the fritz (thanks to other mics not working with Mac due to the line-in thing). Also there is the fact that I have used this headset with this computer for over a year with no significant issues until now, with both mics simultaneously failing.
    There doesn't seem to be a problem with the headset's wires; I am still able to hear audio through the headphones quite well, and when I load my audio recording program (Audio In) and Sound Preferences, I can see the occasional blip of sound recognition when I move the USB adapter portion around in the port. These blips even occur when the pink microphone jack and headphones jack are unplugged from the adapter, so this suggests to me that the problem lies not with the wires, but somewhere in the USB adapter, port, or the computer itself.
    I'm leaning toward the computer itself, since it just seems odd that both mics would just happen to stop working at the same time. That and the fact that audio output still works through the headset, and the USB ports work fine for other USB devices such as my external drive and iPod.
    I have tried restarting, resetting the PRAM, and repairing permissions with Disk Utility. Nothing's working so far.
    Does anyone have any idea what could possibly be wrong?
    For reference's sake, I took a recording of the sound that results from jiggling the USB headset adapter in the port. It's very quiet, so you may need to turn up the volume a little bit to hear it. Again, these are the ONLY sounds that the mic is able to pick up currently.

    iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.10) 768 MB RAM, 37.7 GB hard disk

    Just to chime in here - I wonder if it's down to the software: I've recently updated to 10.4.10, and the internal mic seems to have stopped working.
    One positive effect of the change to 10.4.10 is that my Griffin iMic no longer flips to 8-bit, 22khz recording when I plug it in.
    Having said that, I really like to get my internal mic back up and running again.

  • Can't get Mic to work in Ventrilo

    ! OS:?? Windows XP SP3
    Sound card: Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Fatalty
    Headset:? Sennheiser PC-350
    Creative driver:? 2.8.003
    Ventrilo version: 3.0.5
    Problem:
    I'm using the I/O Dri've front panel to plug in my headset. The mic works in Windows - I can record my voice. But I can't get the mic to work in Ventrilo. I've tried various options, and I am using Line-In 2/Mic 2 as the input source but still no go.
    Any help? Thanks.

    % Yes Ventrilo has an option to select Input source, which I've done as Mic 2. Doing the 'Monitor' test it scrolls values in the right window in response to my voice, so it does seem to "hear" me. (But doing the 'Test' does nothing - not sure what I'm supposed to see there...)
    There's gotta be something I'm missing I just don't know what. Thanks.

  • I have changed my password and still can't get homesharing to work. Get the message "Homesharing could not be activated because the account or password was incorrect. It's what I have used to sign in here!

    I  have changed my password and still can't get home sharing to work. Get the message "Home sharing could not be activated because the account or password was incorrect." It's what I have used to sign in here! Any help much appreciated.

    So I reset my Apple ID password. Which then stopped my MobileMe account from working. Hang on - these were 2 different accounts a while ago, with different passwords!!!
    So I have logged back in to MobileMe with my AppleID, and that's working again. After a short wait I can now create Home Sharing again.
    Folks, I think we have just had our Apple IDs merged with our MobileMe accounts!! With no consultation or warning.
    My guess is that this is the most seamless way for Apple to do it, as the vast majority of people use only one email address and one password for everything. Only those of us who had the same email adress but different a different passwords for MobileMe and Apple ID will have noticed. Annoying for us few, but a clever strategy on Apple's part, becasue we have been driven to fix the issue ourselves by chaning the password, and in doing so we have realised that our mobileme account is now the same thing as our Apple ID.

  • Tried both ways in the Wiki, still can't get network printing work

    Hi,
    I have tried both the client and server ways following the Wiki, still could not get network printing work.
    For the first way, I tried to put either the host name or the ip address (starting with 192) of the remote printer into /etc/cups/client.conf. But both Okular and Evince failed to see the printer in the dialog.
    For the second way, with cups-browsed running, it only managed to discover printers in my local network (ip starting with 137) which I have no access. I tried to manually add the printer using its ip, but it still did not work.
    What can I do? I have spent hours trying to work it out but failed. I would appreciate a lot your help. Thanks.

  • How much does this cost? & I still can't understand how this work

    How much does this cost? & I still can't understand how this work

    Hello mkopti,
    ePrint is a free feature include on most of our wireless printers that are e-all-in-one enabled. It allows you to register your printer on HP's website http://www.eprintcenter.com and create an account. Once an account has been created you can enable the web services feature, after connecting to a valid network with internet access, which will print off a registration code you can use to add the printer to your account and customize an email address for the printer. This allows you to print to the printer from virtually anywhere simply by sending an email to the printers email address and when it is received it will print.
    Most of these printers are also Airprint enabled meaning you can print locally from the same network on the iPad, iPod, and iPhone (version 4.3.2 and higher) by using the built in "Print" command in the idevices.
    If you have any other questions or need clarification feel free to reply to this post and I will try to answer any questions you have.
    If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided!
    Although I work for HP, my posts and replies are my own opinion and not those of HP.

  • I can't get CS6 to recognize R3D files. I put the plugin and the server files in the proper spot and I used 64 not 32 like it said. I still can't get it to work

    The only thing to do to get the R3D files working is download a plugin pack with 2 files in it. one goes in your plugin folder the other in some other folder. I found both original files and replaced them with the new ones. I have rebooted twice... nothing. it won't recognize R3D files. The Camera is a Red brand Epic Dragon and it puts our R3D files. R3D's are easily manipulated in Redcine, but I can't add my .mov files on it so I need to be able to work with these files in PP.

    I'm sad now
    Good thing I have a PC with 32-bit windows!
    Now, I can only assume apple is working on a 64-bit
    fix? I suppose that info/ETA is on the itunes page,
    I'll go take a look.
    Who knows what Apple plans are? I do know that they do not discuss upcoming releases of anything until its available.

  • Logic 8 / USB Mic / Aggregated Device Editor   "Logic is being mean to me"

    I am so bummed!
    I have been attempting for days now to hook up my Audio-Technica USB mic to Logic Pro 8 (I cant afford an M-Box and analog mic for the time being) and I have tried all different methods I am aware of and still the mic will no show up under
    Logic > Preferences > Audio > Core Audio > Devices. The only input choices I have are "built-in microphone" and "built-in input."
    I setup and aggregated audio device, bundling my AT2020 mic, built-in mic, and built-in input.......still nothing. No sign of the AT2020 ANYWHERE in logic. The weirdest part of all is that the mic shows up perfectly well in Garage Band.
    Please if someone out there can help me out I would greatly appreciate it. I am new too logic and could use some pointers. Thank you sooooo much!
    Happy New Year!

    Could you please be a little more exact. I've never have used the aggregate device editor before. I'm trying to take a look right now. The problem is in the ADE (aggregate device editor) It's not letting me select it (the USB mic), so I can assign output values for the usb mic. Plus I can seem to locate the clock you mentioned in Logic Express 8.
    I really appreciate your time and efforts. Please advise.
    Thanks! -P3

  • USB mic not working

    Hi All.
    I'm new to Archlinux and I have the following issue with my USB WebCam (Microsoft VX-1000) : I can't get no sound out of it.
    Both the video and audio devices are detected and proper modules are loaded (gspca and snd-usb-audio).
    Video works fine.
    arecord -l give the following results :

    I mic is unmuted, that was the first thing I checked. And I ran camE during the test to be sure that the webcam is on (green led on).
    Another strange thing is, when I run alsamixer, I can only lower the mic capture volume, not raise it. Curious. It works ok in gnome-alsa-mixer though. I guess their might be an issue with the device's control interface, due to a problem with the alsa driver (my webcam not being supported yet).
    I really can think of anything else.
    Anybody has another idea... please... before I lose the rest of my hair...
