Track pegs when in record with no input assigned

This is happened to me twice. I'm a new Mac and Garageband user. Twice when I have opened an existing project in Garageband the meter pegs on all the tracks when the track record button is on. There is no input assigned to them...may be a dumb simple thing, but I can't find how to pull it down...the volumes are all turned down....If I restart the computer and go back in, it usually fixes it, but there has to be something I'm doing wrong...oh, I'm using an MBOX 2.

So when you go to GB Prefs, Audio/MIDI the input selected is the MBox, not the built-in mic? And there's nothing connected to your MBox? And you still get meter levels showing input?

    When I record with my iSight camera, after a few seconds it stops recording and tell me there is "Dropfame" images. What do I have to make?
    A few weeks ago, my camera doesn't do that, but since 1-2 weeks it becomes impossible to record with it.

  • HT1711 Will I have to pay for the track again when re-purchasing with itunes plus?

    Will I have to pay for the track again when re-purchasing with itunes plus?

    The only ways to upgrade a track from the old format of 128kbps with DRM to the "iTunes Plus" format are to either repurchase the track or to subscribe to iTunes Match. The offer to upgrade an individual track for a small fee was discontinued a number of months ago.

  • Multi-track Recording with Audigy (input level adjustment of 6 tracks)

    Hi,
    Has anyone used an Audigy (or similar) to record more than 2 channels?
    I have an Audigy 4, which I use for 24 bit recordings. Usually I just use 2 channels, and an ASIO4ALL v2 interface which probably uses the "WDM:SB Audigy 4 Audio [D880]" driver.
    However, there's another driver I can select which is "SB Audigy 4 ASIO 24/96 [D880]", and this gives me 6 input channels corresponding to the R and L channels of the inputs line , 2 and 3. This is great, and seems to work OK, but whereas I can control the levels of the incoming signals (on line 3 L/R) with the 2 channel driver, the Creative surround mixer doesn't have any control over the input levels in the 6 channel case, so I'm stuck with having to adjust the level of the incoming signal externally.
    Has anyone found a solution to this difficulty? I've updated to the latest drivers.
    I'm using Windows XP pro. and the recording software is n-Track 5.1.
    Thanks,
    Peter

    HI, I dont know if anyone has had this happen to them or not. I Have a MODEL # SB0090 Creative Labs Sound Blaster Audigy with 394 PCI Sound Card with the front controls. I have used it for years. I just re-loaded it into a new computer and loaded the new driver. When I had the old driver loaded I got a very harsh repeated ......BLAP.....BLAP.......BLAP.......BLAP it was very nasty and sounded like a cd skipping. I loaded the new driver and that got rid of the BLAP skipping thing. Now with the new driver when I bring up the windows play and record controls and when I have the Mutes all off and say for example AUX 2 selected, as soon as I arm the track in Sonar the AUX 2 on the windows play control auto mutes right before my eyes I can then de-select mute and the track stays armed, BUT as soon as I hit record it will auto mute again yet the meters still move and it still records and I am able to de-select mute again while recording and it does not effect the recording. It is a very big hassle during a recording project. ANY IDEAS WOULD BE AWESOME!!!!
    Are you using ASIO (or asio4all), WDM/KS or MME32 on Sonar?
    Not sure but have you checked how the "Record Without Monitoring" (or similiarly named ) option is set (Start menu, Run..., sndvol32 /r).
    On Sonar you may need to enable Input ECHO ( [color="#339966"][)))]? button on track headers).

  • 11g BPEL:failure during dehydration when having transformation with 2 input

    I'm working on 11g SOA
    Has anyone ever seen this problem?. Not every but lots of BPEL process; if I have transformation box that takes in 2 inputs. When I kick off the process, I won't be able to track it in the console, and I found this message printed out on the server unix console.
    ORABPEL-05002
    error while attempting to process the message "com.collaxa.cube.engine.dispatch.messge.invoke.InvokeInstanceMessage"; the reported exception is: Cannot save xml element. failure to save the element {http://www.example.com/MiddleWare}anytype during dehydration
    This element was not a root element and the scope had reference to this element. The scope should have references only to the root element.
    I'm not quite understand what does the bold line mean.
    Appreciate any help / suggestion .

    Have designed the transformation(XSL) using JDEV or handcrafted? What do you mean by 2 inputs, can you be more specific with simple example.

  • Primary key violation when inserting records with insert_identity and ident_current+x

    My problem is this: I have data in a couple of temporary tables including
    relations (one table referencing records from another table by using
    temporary keys).
    Next, I would like to insert the data from the temp tables to my productive tables which have the same structure but their own identity keys. Hence, I need to translate the 'temporary' keys to regular identity keys in my productive tables.
    This is even more difficult because the system is highly concurrent, i.e. multiple sessions may try to insert
    data that way simultaneously.
    So far we were running the following solution, using a combination of
    identity_insert and ident_current:
    create table doc(id int identity primary key, number varchar(100))
    create table pos (id int identity primary key, docid int references doc(id), qty int)
    create table #doc(idx int, number varchar(100))
    create table #pos (docidx int, qty int)
    insert #doc select 1, 'D1'
    insert #doc select 2, 'D2'
    insert #pos select 1, 10
    insert #pos select 1, 12
    insert #pos select 2, 32
    insert #pos select 2, 9
    declare @docids table(ID int)
    set identity_insert doc on
    insert doc (id,number)
    output inserted.ID into @docids
    select ident_current('doc')+idx,number from #doc
    set identity_insert doc off
    -- Since scope_identity() is not reliable, we get the inserted identity values this way:
    declare @docID int = (select min(ID) from @docids)
    insert pos (docid,qty) select @docID+docidx-1, qty from #pos
    Since the request to ident_current() is located directly in the insert statement, we always have an implicit transaction which should be thread safe to a certain extend.
    We never had a problem with this solution for years until recently when we were running in occasional primary key violations. After some reasearch it turned out, that there were concurrent sessions trying to insert records in this way.
    Does anybody have an explanation for the primary key violations or an alternative solution for the problem?
    Thank you
    David

    >> My problem is this: I have data in a couple of temporary tables including relations (one table referencing records [sic] from another table by using temporary keys [sic]). <<
    NO, your problem is that you have no idea how RDBMS and SQL work. 
    1. Rows are not anything like records; this is a basic concept.
    2. Temp tables are how old magnetic tape file mimic scratch tapes. SQL programmers use CTEs, views, derived tables, etc. 
    3. Keys are a subset of attributes of an entity, fundamental characteristics of them! A key cannot be temporary by definition. 
    >> Next, I would like to insert the data from the temp tables to my production tables which have the same structure but their own IDENTITY keys. Hence, I need to translate the 'temporary' keys to regular IDENTITY keys in my productive tables. <<
    NO, you just get worse. IDENTITY is a 1970's Sybase/UNIX dialect, based on the sequential file structure used on 16-bit mini computers back then. It counts the physical insertion attempts (not even successes!) and has nothing to with a logical data model. This
    is a mag tape drive model of 1960's EDP, and not RDBMS.
    >> This is even more difficult because the system is highly concurrent, i.e. multiple sessions may try to insert data that way simultaneously. <<
    Gee, that is how magnetic tapes work, with queues. This is one of many reasons competent SQL programers do not use IDENTITY. 
    >> So far we were running the following solution, using a combination of IDENTITY_INSERT and IDENT_CURRENT: <<
    This is a kludge, not a solution. 
    There is no such thing as a generic “id” in RDBMS; it has to be “<something in particular>_id” to be valid. You have no idea what the ISO-11179 rules are. Even worse, your generic “id” changes names from table to table! By magic, it starts as a “Doc”,
    then becomes a “Pos” in the next table! Does it wind up as a “doc-id”? Can it become a automobile? A squid? Lady Gaga? 
    This is the first principle of any data model; it is based on the Law of Identity; remember that from Freshman Logic 101? A data element has one and only one name in a model. 
    And finally, you do not know the correct syntax for INSERT INTO, so you use the 1970's Sybase/UNIX dialect! The ANSI/ISO Standard uses a table consrtuctor: 
    INSERT INTO Doc VALUES (1, 'D1'), (2, 'D2'); 
    >> We never had a problem with this solution for years until recently when we were running in occasional PRIMARY KEY violations. After some research it turned out, that there were concurrent sessions trying to insert records [sic] in this way. <<
    “No matter how far you have gone down the wrong road, turn around.” -- Turkish proverb. 
    You have been mimicking a mag tape file system and have not written correct SQL. It has caught up with you in a way you can see. Throw out this garbage and do it right.

  • Recording with SB Audigy 2

When I record the second track, I have the first track mixing and recording into the second track. I need to hear the first track as I record the second but I do not want the second track to contain the audio from the first. Is this possible and if so what do I need to do?

  • Recording with Quicktime and adding effect

    Hi all. I am recording Firewire video in Quicktime Player. The audio comes from a seperate source, through the line-in. To synchronize, I need to delay the audio by 600 ms. Does anyone have a method of doing so? I have an AU delay that would work. I just can't figure out how to apply it to the live lin-in.
    Thanks very much for any help.
    Jeremy

    I'll pass on some things I discovered, in case anyone has this question or anyone can add to this.
    I succeeded to some degree, by doing this:
    1. Installed Soundflower; this creates virtual sound inputs and outputs, so sound can be passed between applications.
    2. In GarageBand, I created a real instrument.
    3. Set input to Line-in
    4. Added the Voxengo Delay AU (http://www.voxengo.com/product/sounddelay) which is free and simple. The Apple AUDelay repeats the sound as well, rather than just delaying it (unless I missed something).
    5. Set GarageBand's sound output to Sountflower, and turned monitoring on.
    6. In QT player, new movie recording, with audio input set to "Soundflower".
    The good news is that I can save the GarageBand document, which can be opened and everything is immediately running. But, it would be nice if there was a way to add an effect to any input directly so that I only have to use one application.
    Any suggestions to streamline this? It is for an installation which will be run by students, so the fewer steps needed to set this up the better.

  • Guitar "twang" when recording with macmini and M-Audio Fast Track Ultra

    hey was hoping someone might have similar setup or enough knowledge to help out.
    when i record guitar through my interface i get a clip after each guitar note that sounds very flangey (or like and outter-space type "twang" if that helps describe it) i was hoping it would come out a bit cleaner. and yes i have made sure no effects are turned on. its should be straight up clean guitar, and the notes preceding these clips are in-fact nice and clean. its just the milliseconds after each note that are bothering me.
    my biggest issue is i don't know if its being caused by my interface or a bad setting within the program. I am using the build in preamp and plugging directly into the unit, so i'm going to get a mic and see how it sounds then.
    I did a lot of research on the D/A interfaces out there and i went with the fast track ultra for the price and because the company really hyped these preamps. this is the general description you will find on sites trying to sell the FTU "4 preamps with award-winning M-Audio Octane technology"
    if this noise is cause by a problem with these preamp.... im gona be POBB! i would have saved up and waited to buy and apogee product! anyone out these using an ensemble??? would love to hear some feedback about that unit! thanks in advance for any help!

    hey thanks for the reply! i have since adjusted a few parameters and had good luck going directly into the ftu's 1/4in jack in the front. the more i use the program the more im understanding (you can see i'm relieving my neebie side!) i have not messed much with the ftu's control program itself, is this helpful when trying to get good levels and such?
    how knowledgable are you about microphones? i have a garbage mic from radio shack and when trying to record my acoustic guitar with it i really need to crank up the input on the ftu and be close to the mic to get a signal. this in turn creates that "fuzzy warm" sound that you can hear before the guitar starts playing. it's that analog sound like going through an old tube-amp or something... now while the instrument is playing its not as noticeable obviously and some people even like to add this sort of effect onto digital stuff to give it that warm feeling...
    my question is- what if i want just a nice crisp acoustic recording from my mic into garageband? do i go with something that uses phantompower or what? im just so lost because i don't know much about mics (except they can get REAL expensive... saw one for 7k at guitar center by me!) well sorry for ramblings! thanks in advance for help!

  • I have a m-audio producer usb microphone and since the update on Dec. 22, 2013 Logic hasn't been allowing me to record with it. Logic is reading the microphone as the input but the audio tracks don't have the record enable button. What's wrong?

    I have a m-audio producer usb microphone and since the update on Dec. 22, 2013 Logic hasn't been allowing me to record with it. Logic is reading the microphone as the input but the audio tracks don't have the record enable button and won't let me select an input for the audio track on the inspector panel. What are some possible solutions.

    Certain M-Audio USB devices (along with some other USB2 class compliant devices that don't use drivers) no longer work with Logic Pro X 10.0.5
    At this time it is unknown as to why this has happened. Nor is it known if Apple will need to fix it or if it is up to the Developers of said USB2 devices  to remedy the problem.
    In the mean time, assuming you made/could make backups prior to updating to 10.0.5.... the solution is to roll back to LPX 10.0.4...

  • When I record a second track, garageband will record the first one again, even if I'm with headphones on. How can I stop it?

    That's really annoying, because I can't put an effect in the second track, once that the part of the first track that's together will be changed too. And it happens with a third track, and so on, the other tracks will be together with the track i just have recorded.
    If anybody could help me, I'd be really grateful.
    P.S.: it only happens with the audio recorder, and it didn't happen before.

    I'm using GB 1.4 for Ipad 4, my IOS is 6.1.3, and the only mic is the one of the Ipad.
    That's exactly the point: I'm recording the second track and the audio of the first one is appearing in the background, but the music is only being played through the headphones, and there is no way for the audio recorder be listening to it.
    The first track i just sing with the guitar, then I tried to put a solo and backing vocals and this started to happen...
    Thank you for the attention!

  • Track audio record , problem with inline input

    Hi Forum !

It was obviously translated by someone who hasn't the first notion of anything vaguely musical or DAW or sequencer or mixing, or of musical equipment of any kind !

I kind of wonder if the translations weren't done in an automatic translation programme I don't know if other languages suffer from the same "rubbish" translation - it could be subject of an amusing thread here "Silly excerpts from Logic Pro Manuals" or something
