Trying to record from external source, no region created...

Hey everybody. Trying to record into Logic. My aim is to record sets from Ableton but at the moment I am just trying with a simple microphone. I have set my audio record path to a folder on the desktop. I have created an audio track and chosen its input source: stereo input 1 & 2. The track is armed for recording and there is a good level showing. My soundcard is outboard. A Mackie d.2 Firewire Mixer. When I hit record I get the red display along the timeline of the arrange window, the playhead moves but no region is created. When I look in the Audio window there is no file showing there either. When making tracks ordinarily with Logic I never have any problems bouncing stuff and the audio interface is always recognised. The same applies when Ableton is working in rewire. I get a signal easily enough as its routed via my mixer same as with the microphone. Funnily enough I can record into Garageband no problem but as I have Logic its about time I got to the bottom of this. I bet its something really simple I have overlooked. Anyone got any ideas?
Powerbook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.10)  

Just to add some further info... what it does seem to be recording are midi input messages when I slide the crossfader of my mixer. A region is created but when I click on it the matrix edit window opens... no audio in sight. What am I doing wrong?...

  • Recording from external source

    I am brand new to Mac / switched from pc a week ago. not able to figure out some things yet and havent found answers in support. mostly on the basic stuff. like I was able to record audio from a lp turntable on a pc. it looks like there is no recording program built in to the iMac, or am I wrong? will I have to purchase some type of software to record from external record or tape source?

    Sorry some heavy-handed moderation has been going on here. I accidently duplicated my post when I edited it to say 'Welcome to Apple Discussions'. Then I asked the mods to remove the first post above and they've gone and deleted my second post and yours; I am sorry about that. 
    You posed a question about Real Instruments in the absent post. A Real Instrument can be a microphone input or any device that connects to the Audio-In port (or a USB/Firewire Audio device).
    Hope that helps.

  • How can I monitor audio that I am recording from external source?

    I am recording music from LP records (vinyl) and need to be able to listen to it while recording. It is impossible to know when a track is finished if you can't hear the music from either internal speakers or headset. Is there any way I can passthrough the sound from line in to internal speakers or headset?

    Look at LineIn for audio playthru.

  • How to merge key field from external source system with SAP R/3 master

    Hi,
    In SAP BW 7.0 system, our scenario is Master Data for 0GL_ACCOUNT is coming from SAP R/3 alongwith the Transactional data records for standard FI cubes. Then, one more set of transaction data is coming from external source system, a flat file, into another custom DSO(ZDSO_FI), which also has this GL Account field.
    This flat file's GL account, GL_file, has to be basically mapped/merged with the standard 0GL_ACCOUNT field so that at the time of loading the transactional data for custom DSO, ZDSO_FI (with transformation mapping GL_file > 0GL_ACCOUNT), system automatically refers to the 0GL_ACCOUNT master data to load these incoming transactional values, from the external flat file system. How can this be done?
    To illustrate the scenario, say I have 5 records in 0GL_ACCOUNT, loaded from SAP R/3 into SAP BW-
    0GL_ACCOUNT      Short Description     Source System
    100                                   D1                          R/3
    200                                   D2                          R/3
    300                                   D3                          R/3
    400                                   D4                          R/3
    500                                   D5                          R/3
    Now suppose if my flat file has following sample transactional data, to be uploaded in SAP BW  ZDSO_FI-
    GL_file      Key Figure1
    400          789
    200          567
    Then after uploading this transactional data in ZDSO_FI (with transformation mapping GL_file > 0GL_ACCOUNT), the 0GL_ACCOUNT data becomes as below-
    0GL_ACCOUNT      Short Description     Source System
    400
    200
    100                                   D1                          R/3
    200                                   D2                          R/3
    300                                   D3                          R/3
    400                                   D4                          R/3
    500                                   D5                          R/3
    So note that the system did not refer the incoming GL's from flat file, although the field is mapped to 0GL_ACCOUNT in transformation, to the already available master data. Rather created 2 new data rows for the GL accounts coming from external system. Because of this I am not able to perform the calculations common from standard FI cube and ZDSO_FI, with GL account as key field. I need to synchronise these data values based on GL Account to proceed with further calculation and am badly stuck.
    Request if anyone can please throw some light on how to achieve this seemingly simple requirement?
    Thanks in advance.

  • I can't paste text from external sources into Photoshop CC 2014.

    Hello everyone,
    Since a few days I'm not able to paste texts from external sources into Photoshop CC 2014.
    I never have problems with Photoshop CC before.
    I have the new iOS Yosemite installed in my macbook.
    It's really frustrating, can someone help please?

    I have basically the same setup, except on a Mac Mini. I am unable to reproduce your problem. Double check that you are copying the original text in the first place, and then make sure you are pasting into a text layer as you cannot paste into a regular Photoshop layer -- nothing will happen. Create a text layer by clicking on a regular layer with the text tool, the T in the tool box. The new layer will show up in the layers panel identified by the first line of the text.

  • Problem recording from external l

    I'm new here, I have a SB Audigy 2ZS, and I want to record from external line to my PC.
    I use a external mixer to connect cassette, mics, long plays to the PC, and I connect them to SB Audigy from "Input line". And I use the mixer to amplify the PC. When I want to record the "surround Mixer" software thas not permit select a simple record input, it mixer all lines (wave, CD, CD digital, input line).
    That produce a terrible feedback. Are there some way to record only from input line, without switch line by line?
    Thanks
    Mduque

    Just click on the speaker icon under the volume controls in the mixer. Having said that it is not really necessary as I am unable to detect any hum by leaving them open. I suspect you may need to reinstall the card.

  • Recording from outside source

    Tring to record from my line in off of a dvd player, can here the music coming through, but when I goto record it and play it back I get no sound. I've tried musicmatch and Neromix, both set up to record from line in. Any ideas? Thanks

    Hi,
    Did you set the input "V" to the line you want to record from?
    As you need to select the source for recording....
    To get there, click the little-speaker-right-below 2 times, then you get the mixer.....
    Now goto options->properties, select the recording and press ok (make sure you have selected all the lines you need to see in the mixer)
    Then you have the recording mixer, now select the input you want to use....
    I hope this works for you....

  • Recording From wave source in Sonar 4

    I am trying to mix down several tracks of audio in Sonar 4 into one track. When I select "wave" as the recording source and try to record, nothing records.
    Upon further investigation, it seems that the output from Sonar is NOT wave, because when i mute the 'Wave' section in the Surround Mixer, there is no effect on what is being played. I however, cannot find the source actually is, so the only alternative is to record using "What You Hear" which is NOT an ideal option for me.
    Anyone else have this problem? Do you know how to make it so the output from Sonar comes from the Wave output.
    I have an Audigy 2 ZS card.

    Depending on, what you're doing:
    - you can use the "Bounce To Tracks" -option instead of trying with recording?
    - if this the final producing step you're doing, the Export -function combines all selected tracks into one file (so you can also export those tracks you want and then import back to Sonar).
    See isntructions from Sonar manual (help).

  • FF 3.6.12 will not open links from external sources (Outlook, Dreamweaver, Digsby, etc)

  • Querying data from External Source from FORMS

    I have a form that is built based on Oracle tables.
    But I need to get data from external Data source from within Forms and use it fro validation.
    I need to execute a Select statement via ODBC from within Forms procedures. This is going to a SQL Server DB to get some information.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks

    Hi
    What version of forms do you use? If you use forms 6i, take a look at the EXEC_SQL package. You can access oracle databases and ODBC databases (using OCA) independently of the main database connection -- well, I never tried but that is what the documentation says.
    I am not sure about version 9i... the package is there, but I could not find anything in the help about it (what is not a good sign...)

  • Processing attachment from external source in workflow

    I'm certain that the following is possible to create within a workflow process, but probably requires some customization to make it work properly. I wanted to see if any other have tried to do the same thing.
    We want to initiate our workflow based upon the arrival of an email (from an external source) into a specific SAP Business Workplace inbox. The email itself will contain an attachment of a spreadsheet or text file. Once the flow starts, it will route the external email request for approval through a number of different channels. When all necessary approvals have been provided, we will want to have the attachment used as input to be posted into the system, via a customized file upload process we have. As I said earlier, I'm certain that this can be done with some custom code. Just wondering if anyone else has processed data like this previously.
    Feedback and previous experience in this area is very much appreciated.
    Thanks,

    Hi David,
    You need to look into inbound message handling in SO28 to tell the system what you want to do with incoming mails. Refere to help.sap.com:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/6c/69c2e3418d11d1896e0000e8322d00/frameset.htm

    In inbound recipient you can choose SAP Object and assign a BOR object that implements interface IFRECEIVE, here you put your code into method RECEIVE. 
    This is excecuted for each received email, so you can raise an event for each email.
    Let us know, if you get it to work.
    Kind regards

  • Mac Pro trying to boot from external drive instead of HD?

    my osx was recently reinstalled at the Genius Bar due to a boot problem caused by a power outage.  Now if i want to  boot up
    i have to unplug time machine first;  it is possibly trying to boot from the external drive till i unplug it.  What should I do?

    I would have:
    not let you go home without also buying
    a 1500VA UPS
    a new system drive
    other drives as needed
    start with a clean install of the OS to a new drive
    Clone your system when you do get a good install and update (Apple only)
    then clone again when you have all your apps in place
    Don't assume anything works, in fact assume nothing will for now.
