Trying to record through soundboard in Sound Studio?
Hi all-
I have been trying to record an audio clip into Sound Studio 2.2.4. The default is for the MacBook Pro to play the clip through the speakers and for Sound Studio to record through the microphone, in which case I can get good levels but the recording is echo-ey and bad. When I switch to the only other source option, Built-in Input, I get no signal or levels in Sound Studio at all.
Am I doing something foolish? Does SS not have this capacity? Or do Macs not use the soundboard the way a PC does? Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Matthew
I have a very similar problem on my iMac. I've tried 3 sound programs and none of them can record internally, without having to resort to speakers out mic in. Each program has an option for internally recording but the problem appears to be my own sound preferences as they just list the mic, the line in and a blue tooth device called LAVINIA that I know nothing about!

Trying to record through line in no wo
Hey, I am using a sound blaster li've sound card and want to record through the line in port on the back. I have bought a convertor which has allowed me to plug my guitar into the line in however when i play nothing comes out and my recording programs don't reconize the line in. Nothing is muted so that is not the problem. If anyone could help me out i would greatly appreciate it thanks.
yeah i have a similar problem when recording through my microphone. I like to play my little guitar, sing my little songs anre record them via microphone. I noticed, no sound. I had the volume turned down as to prevent the annoying "squuueeeeeeeeeel". but i noticed when i turn my speaker volume up, it records.. but then i get the occational "squeeeeeeeeel" hmm. i'm starting to notice, i'm having all sorts of problems with thsi card. lol

Hi,
can anyone tell me how to burn a recording i made on sound studio onto a cd...is this even possible? I can't figure it out. Please help. Thanks.
ibook G3 Mac OS X (10.2.x)You cannot burn a cd using sound studio. You can import them to your itunes library. Then sent up a playlist and burn that using itunes. I have done it quite a lot.

Hi all
I'm trying to record through a proxy using OpenScript 9.0.1. When the site is an HTTP site, all is fine and I'm asked for my proxy password and then passed on to the site. OpenScript records as expected. But when the site is HTTPS, I don't get the proxy authorisation box and eventually the following is returned. Content-length: 0 Connection: Keep-Alive
Has anyone got experience of recording HTTPS through a proxy. I'm trying to work out if it's OpenScript, the proxy or some network security issue.
I've tried both to use the IE settings or manually specify proxy settings in OpenScript.
Another interesting issue is that the 'ignore' list in IE does not seem to be used by OpenScript and there is no way in the OpenScript prefs to set a proxy ignore list?
many thanks

Basically, what I am trying to do is this:
Record my screen through Screeenium, record my voice as audio through an Avid MBox Mini (interface) with a MXL 909 microphone to pick up the audio. I have all that figured out. I'm able to efficiently record my audio and screenplay through these instruments and programs. What I am having trouble with is the stereo mix. I am running into a slew of problems here... My goal: Add on the audio of a game that I am playing (for example, Amneisia) so that the audio for my game will be picked up internally, and not through the speakers to be recorded through the microphone. I want there to be no external sound except me talking into my microphone. I also want to be able to HEAR the audio of the game through my headphones (and if possible, myself as well, through a monitor maybe?)
Problems I have run into so far:
-Haven't gotten it to pick up in game audio at all while using headphone. Can't figure this out
-Downloaded soundflower, have the output as soundflower. Not picking up anything, will put all my sound and midi settings at the end.
-When I do record through my microphone, it is only picking up a single channel (left earpiece only, no right channel)
-I have figured out it is NOT the equipment, I use Pro Tools and am able to pick up both channels with my mic, recorded a few tests. It's settings and I can't figure it out
-Trying not to run 16 million programs while running the game, will cause lag.
Summed up:
Trying to record:
-Audio from gameplay of any game I am playing through alternative route of speakers (do NOT want to record game audio through speakers, internally)
-Record voice through Avid MBox Mini and MXL 909 microphone.
-Record screen gameplay through Screenium
I followed a guide that told me to achieve "stereo mix'' I need to download soundflower and follow "X" steps. That is done and these are my current settings:
Audio Midi Setup - Stereo Mix custom Aggregate Device, Soundflower (2ch) selected, Avid Mbox Mini selected, Soundflower Output #1 has 2 channels (1-2), using Avid MBox mini for "Input" in order to record. Using Soundflower AND Avid MBox mini as "Output" in order to hear the sounds and replay game sounds (could be the problem? Maybe?)
Sound Settings - Output Stereo Mix (custom channel) Input Avid MBox Mini (recording)
I'm hoping this isn't too hard to understand.. I'm VERY bad at explaining information regarding computers.. It's hard becuase I don't understand it. I can clarify anything that I am able to, so any help on finding certain things would be greatly appreciated.
My computer: Macbook Pro MAC OS X Lion (11G63) 10.7.5 2.4 GHz Intel Core i7 4GB 13333 MGz DDR3 (If any of this is imporant)Hey guys,
I tried to do some research and it looks like you need to have an external device and its drivers, such as an external microphone, installed on the computer to record audio that can be saved as a sound file. Another Suggestion is to try an auxiliary spliter for your headphones and external speakers?
What software are you using to record your game?
If anyone knows anything different, please let me know.
Thank you for being a part of the Lenovo Family,
Catie

No sound or strange sounds when trying to record guitar
Hi!
I'm new to Logic Pro, after having worked with garageband for many years. I've just been trying to record guitar through my audio interface, with strange results. I've set my audio in and output source as my M-Audio firewire solo, created an audio track, and selected the guitar sound I want. At first there was no input, then when I deleted the first track and created a new one, I could hear the guitar through the monitor and it was being input, but it had a horrible distorted and out of tune sound - and that was how it sounded when I recorded it too. Then I tried it again and it seemed to be working fine for about 5 minutes - it sounded fine through the headphones and the recording was right - but then went back to the strange sounds again - without me changing anything!
I'm using Logic Pro 9.1.8, on a Macbook Pro running Mac OSX 10.8.3, and have a M-Audio Firewire Solo audio interface.
I'm very frustrated right now - so I'd be grateful for any help!
Thanks,
StephenHi stephenhis,
If you are having issues with imput audio in Logic Pro, the first place to start would be with some basic isolation troubleshooting to see if the issue can be localized. That should provide a good basis for further troublshooting should the issue persist.

Trouble with recording into iMac G5 with Sound Studio
I hooked up my electric piano to my iMac G5 in the hope of recording my playing. The piano has two RCA jacks on the back of it for external speakers. I connected those to an adapter that fit into the audio input jack on the back of my iMac. When I tried to record using Sound Studio, all I got was a loud hum--no recognition of any of the input from the piano. My Sound Input Preference was Line In Audio Port.
Then I tried the same thing with my Griffin iMic--I connected the wires from the piano to the iMic and then hooked the iMic up to a USB port on the computer. I changed the Sound Preference to iMic USB audio system. I hit record in Sound Studio, but the playback was silence.
Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong here? Thanks.Yes, Rod, I did check the Preference in Sound Studio. I chose Audio Line In.
What brand and model of keyboard are we talking about here, James.
What "level" do the outputs on the keyboard speaker outputs operate at? Are they intended to simply connect directly to speakers or do they normally go into an amplifer of some kind first? It would be interesting to know if they function properly when connected to a completely different device.
What we need to try to sort out first is whether the problem lies with 1) the keyboard output 2) the cabling or interface, or 3) the Mac settings.
Cheers

I am trying to record a meditation from my Macbook Air and an annoying loud sound, like a burp, will suddenly erupt from the MacBook, necessitating I start again. Any ideas on how I may stop this, or what it is??
Click on the blue Internet Recovery in nbar's post. That is a link to what computers can run Internet Recovery.
Do a backup, preferable 2 separate ones on 2 drives. Boot to the Recovery Volume (command - R on a restart or hold down the option/alt key during a restart and select Recovery Volume). Run Disk Utility Verify/Repair and Repair Permissions until you get no errors. Reformat the drive using Disk Utility/Erase Mac OS Extended (Journaled), then click the Option button and select GUID. Then re-install the OS.

The sound will no longer come through my headphones on my iPad I've tried several different headsets. The sound works as normal without the headphones but will still not come through the headphones even thoug I have tried to reset it twice. This is the new ipad with retina display and is only 2 months old and otherwise works fine. Please help!
- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iPad. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPad: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
Apple will exchange your iPad for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

I am trying to record a basic guitar track while I sing along. I don't want my vocals to be recorded at the same time but the internal mic seems to be picking up the vocal and guitar sounds. I tried System Preferences, Sound, Line In - Audio Line Input. It seems to be a common problem in Garageband for the Mac, ipad and iphone.
for me it turned out that the jack into the iMac was loose. Once I fiddled with it everything worked okay

Not getting any sound trying to record external synth in GB
I'm trying to record my Alesis Andromeda synth into GB but not getting any sound. I am using an Emagic AMT-8 as a midi i/f & a MOTU 828mkII as a soundcard. Both are set up correctly in core midi/audio as I normally use Logic Pro 7 with no problems.
In GB I add a new real instrument track & select the relevant input to corespond to my 828mkII, I then turn monitor 'on' but I am not getting any sound back to the 828mkII. Preferences shows that this soundcard is recognised.
I can play AU instruments or GB instruments from the Andromeda so the midi connection is good.
Any ideas? cheers....The Andromeda is plugged into line inputs 1&2 of the 828mkII (which is inputs 3&4 as the mic inputs are 1&2), The outputs of the 828mkII are plugged into my Genelec monitors. I know the set up works as I use Logic all the time, just can't get any sound in GB.
thanks. -
