Using Line 6 DL4 pedal for VOCALS with Garageband

Hey all,
Does anyone know how to help me properly connect my new Line 6 DL4 loop pedal (the green one) to Garageband so I can practice laying down vocal loops for live gigs? I am using this pedal to do harmonies and funky effects with my vocals and have plugged it into my M-Audio pre-amp using a 2-sided quarter inch cord. My mic is plugged directly into the Line 6 pedal and when I open Garageband and create a basic vocal track with "Monitor ON" I can hear the Line 6 effects.
PROBLEM:
I am stomping the Line 6 button to record the loop but when I go to play it back on the pedal or to overdub it, no sound comes out. I will test the pedal with a regular guitar amp, but does anyone know if I can use Garageband as my monitor/amp so I can hear whatever sounds I make with my Line6 pedal in the software?
Thanks!!

The DL4 really isn't meant as a looper and your mac isn't meant to be a amp but if you want to use your mac as a pa forget garageband just use line-in http://www.rogueamoeba.com/freebies/.

How to use old "Apple Loops for Soundtrack" with Garageband

Since Soundtrack (was part of FinalCut Express HD) doesn't work anymore (since some ProKit framework update) and was not part of the FinalCut Express 4 upgrade I used Garageband for sound creation and editing. But I missed some good loops from the old Soundtrack.
The Apple Loops for Soundtrack were still sitting on my harddisk but Garageband didn't recognize them in the Loop-Browser. Looking at the structure I found the Search Index files (/Library/Audio/Apple Loop Index/). I have two there, one for Garageband and another for iLife Sound Effects. Both are interpreted by Garageband. But no third for the old Soundtrack Loops. So I had a look at the Sound Loops installer DVD from FinalCut HD and there I found a similar structur and copied the Index file to the location of the two indexes mentioned above. I left the Loops for Soundtrack where they are (also could edit the index file for new locations, but that's a 7.5MB text file) and now Garageband knows their location and also lists the loops at the right categories inside the Loop-Browser.
Maybe that helps someone, even if I didn't find a topic about it here.

Ah.. ok, then never mind. Just didn't find any information about how to use the old soundtrack loops with garageband and so I did some thinking on my own. And if it works that easy, the better it is

I am using iMac OS 10.7.2 with Garageband'11 6.0.4. I can't record sound from mixer Behringer X1622USB using USB out. when I connect the mixer to iMac via USB appears USB Audio CODEC on Sound and preferences but no sound from mixer to iMac. Need help.

I am using iMac OS 10.7.2 with Garageband'11 6.0.4. I can't record sound from mixer Behringer X1622USB using USB out. when I connect the mixer to iMac via USB appears USB Audio CODEC on Sound and Preferences but I can't get no sound from mixer to iMac only sound from iMac to mixer. I only can record sound using microphone line in. Please help.

Eric,
Thanks for your reply. Realtek audio works only in playback. There is a stereo mix in the mixer but the recording controls are not operable with no sliders in the mixer for any recording option. Slider controls appear to be grayed out. Can't figure out how to enable them. Downloaded newest drivers to no avail.
The M Audio control panel has no apparent option for recording stereo mix. Adobe ignores the sound from the DVD or CD and shows flatline.
I'm trying to record the sound from the DVD not rip the track.
When I go to Audio Driver Setup and select Audition 3.0 windows sound, there is no input device installed.
I'm thinking of going back to a decent internal Soundblaster card like I have on my 8 year old machine I am replacing.

Wha wha pedal work well with GarageBand but don't want to work with logic pro 9.1.8 on my MBPro end 2011

Install on MacBook Pro end of 2011 with logic Pro 9.1.8 and Apogee GIO interface guitar
The wha wha pedal work well with GarageBand but not working with Logic Pro
Only the red light turning on and off at the screnn of the MBPro and on my Apogee GIO (Guitar Interface Midi) switch button but the effect wha wha won't work.
HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND MY ENGLISH

Pancenter...
Yes... but I have come across some setups that came with a native SL (and even one Lion!) installation.. that somehow had a corrupted or older Prokit installed for some unknown reason... and given it's a quick fix to try.. I thought I'd mention it..
I frankly don't think it is entirely a Prokit issue itself, but it wouldn't do any harm to try and install v7 just in case it is part of the problem...
+1 on the UAD stuff....
Also, at the time it crashed... according to the logs...the OP was running Ableton Live at the same time, presumably rewired with Logic... so add all that together with UAD plugins... and that's quite a load on the system...
Finally in thread 32 there is a weird exception msg relating to the Trash2 plugin.. that I haven't seen before...
Thread 32:

How can I see from my contact who use iphone (ios 5) for contact with imessage?

How can I see from my contact who use iphone (ios 5) for contact with imessage?

Well, let take the personal service point of view : let say, I had two calendars on my iCloud account : one for work, one for my leisure activities.
On my MacBook Pro that I use at home as well as at my office, I would want the two calendars to show and since I am alone in my office, I would want the alerts for both my work and my leisure activities to show (and make a sound at the same time).
But on my iPad that I only use at home, I would only want my leisure activities alerts to show (and make a sound) and on my iPhone that I only use for work, I would only want my work alerts to show (and make a sound).
That is a personal service that simply does not work.
Why would Apple give us the opportunity to hide some calendars on certain devices but not allow us, on these same devices, to switch off the alerts linked to these calendars that we have chosen to hide ? Why having alerts of calendars that do not even show on these devices ?
And I am an Apple fan since 1984, since the very first Mac. I still do believe Macs and Apple devices and/or software (iOS, OS X and others...) are much better and much more efficient than " Microsoft, Windows, Google and other Android devices and software.
But that does not mean everything's perfect (and I find that quite normal).
Nevertheless, in this case, letting alerts make a sound on a device where a specific calendar is not shown, that does not make any sense : when uncheking those calendars, the alerts linked to those calendars should be automatically switch off (but alerts should be able to work on the calendars that are shown.)

Air or Pro for Recording vocals with GarageBand or PT and Producing

I'm considering buying a MacBook and would like to get a new Air. I will be using it mainly for recording my vocals on beats that I have bought on iTunes. I'm also going to be taking a couple of Coursera classes on music production. Can the new Air's handle GarageBand or Pro Tools well? I've been using my iPhone 4S with GarageBand to record but I would like to do more editting of my vocals with Pro Tools. The reason I like the Air is b/c it is light and easy to transport.

One thing with vocalists, I can think of, is to show them the input device, and have them watch the clip meter. After a few takes, if they are somewhat savvy at singing into a mic, they'll start to back off on strong notes, and moving in on subtle notes. If you watch a pro singer on stage, you'll see them pulling the mic in close for soft stuff, and backing it way off for the strong notes. In the studio, the same techniques can be used, but the person has to back away, rather than a hand held mic pulled away.
Hardware can help this to an extent, but the singer has to take some action to get the best performance recorded. If I were going to use hardware, it'd probably be limiting more so than compression. Limiting can keep your signal under control, without doing too much to the dynamics. I'd prefer to save compression for post, so I can decide what sounds best. I used to have a female vocalist with an amazing voice. i was NEVER able to capture her properly on tape, since I had no pre processing at all. She is still in this area, and I have invited her to come record some vox for me, because I want to see if I can now get a grip on them. If I ever do, she'll be featured on an upcoming CD

Using vocalive with Garageband

I was wondering about how some of you are using Vocalive in conjunction with Garageband.The way I see it, here are the options.
1. Export your song from garageband, then import it into Vocalive, do your vocals thenexport the final project. (this will require you to purchase the in-app 8 track audio mixer for $14.99)
2. Use two ipads (very expensive method but you may have 2 in your household, I do) and sing through Vocalive on 1 and plug into second ipad (I'm using irig).
3. Is there and easier way just using one ipad?

I bought a M-Audio Axiom25 today and I cant seem to figure out how to make the controls work with Garageband. I know that it is supposed to be completely compatible with it but I cant even see the note input when I hit the keys. All I can do with it is play the virtual instruments, I can't do anything else with my controller.
Did you get a 1st Gen or 2nd gen Axiom? You can only use the 2nd gen's faders and knobs etc with GB by downloading and installing the Directlink plugin. However, according to this http://www.m-audio.com/index.php?do=products.directlink M-Audio document you can only use Directlink with GB 09.

Distortion workaround: can chip swap using line out jack for rear out ja

I am using a SB Audigy EAX. My headphones sound like a blown speaker mostly out of left ear. I tryed everything including reinstalling xp on my dell and nothing worked [yes I tried other headphones to no avail]. Finally I played around with the balance and realised that the left and right channels were leaking together slightly so I think there is a physical problem on the card. As a temp solution I have set my card to use four speakers and plugged my headphones into the rear out which is a different jack on the card. It sounds fine from the rear out jack but I wish there was a way to have the card use the rear out jack for line out output. In other words is there a program or driver that can tell the chip to swap line out jack for rear out jack? My card is no longer under warranty and I only ever use heaphones. The problem with my temp solution is that some winamp plugins and games don't function properly.

On my sound blaster ex, when connecting through the analogue 6 channel output, Line Out 3 is a 4 pole mini jack. My sound system is only 5. and doesn't need the centre rear speaker. Does any one know if in this case I can just use a standard 3 pole stereo jack for subwoofer and front center?
For analog 5. it should work. See the user's guide.

Using an Ethernet Adapter for Internet with my Emac - getting IP problems

Hi, I used this Ethernet Adapter just fine with my laptop, and now have everything migrated to an EMac. Using 10.4.11, so everything is the same. But I get strange drops (Gmail even told me I had a 'flaky' internet connection) and have to launch Network and am usually told (under Network Status):
Ethernet Adapter (enl) has a self-assigned IP address and may not be able to connect to the Internet.
I can sometimes get it working by hitting the Renew DHCP lease or Configure IPv6 and Apply Now. Sometimes that doesn't work, but if I switch to another User it starts working correctly, and is fine when I return to my preferred user. Sometimes nothing works until I restart. It's frustrating, because it is time consuming to fix and I never know when I am going to be dropped. This never happened with my laptop, so I am pretty sure it's something in my Network pane.
Thanks, ahead of time, for any suggestions.
Any suggestions?

I did reinstall the software, but your question got me to thinking ...
I had the problem again after I turned off the computer for an hour, to do some RL stuff, and when I turned it on I got the "self-assigned" IP report again. The IP6 was off, so that wasn't the only issue. I did a renew lease thing, which did nothing on my usual User side, but when I switched to the other User it worked again.
So I'm wondering ... the User side I am mostly using was the one that migrated over from the Laptop. The one that tends to turn it on is the one that had a User installed on it already. Maybe some setting migrated from the Laptop. Perhaps I should try deleting the software, and reintalling it from the CD. It seems to be affecting the IP selection, somehow.
The other thing is maybe I should just put in a manual setting on the IP, the one the dongle seems to like. I'm wondering if IPs are being reassigned by the router in the main house and that's why mine goes bonkers for no reason. Only thing is ... that never happened when it was just on the laptop.
Hey, thanks, Kappy, for all your help. I know it's tough when you can't see exactly what I'm talking about.

Using Tuxedo Mainframe adapter for SNA with OSB

Hi,
Can we use the Oracle Tuxedo mainframe adapter for SNA with the OSB?
If yes then how?

Hi Priyanka,
The Tuxedo Mainframe Adapters are separably licensed products and not included in the Tuxedo kits. I'm not certain the mainframe adapters are yet available for 10gR3 (I'm checking on this), and for whatever reason the latest version I can find for download is the 9.1 version that can be downloaded from eDelivery.

Help using a Roland Edirol R-09 with Garageband (kinda bootleg)

Being a career musician, I'm pretty low on funds and I was trying to figure out a cheap way to record music. I used to do this on my old computer (which was a PC) and I never had any problems, and I was wondering if anyone stumbled across anything similar:
I have an Edirol R-09, which is not an A/D converter or an audio interface - its primary use is for recording and storing - i.e. it has two stereo mics built into it and an SD card inside, so I can, for example, record my band's show and later connect it to my computer and it acts as a hard drive. I simply take the files from the SD storage, put them on my computer, and do any audio effecting (EQ, levels, etc) after. However, I got this bright idea which I tried on my old computer:
I wanted to start multi-tracking while recording my own songs (i.e. record drums, then bass, guitar, etc in a program such as ProTools). On my old PC, I had Cool Edit Pro, and I simply connected an 1/8" stereo cable from the headphone jack on my Edirol into the 1/8" stereo input on my computer, and used it as a sort of bootleg A/D converter. It all worked fine, besides being slightly inconvenient. Through Cool Edit, I was simply using my Edirol as a microphone, and then I could multitrack, do bass, vocals, whatever else I needed.
However, now that I got a Mac and am using Garageband, I'm coming across an extremely irritating problem that I just can't figure out how to fix. I'm connecting everything EXACTLY the same as I used to, but now as soon as I have the cable plugged into my Edirol and power it up, the input signal is plagued with static. You can still hear whatever I record, but there's this relatively loud static underneath everything (and it's ONLY int he tracks I use the Edirol with). I've tried different settings and connections, and I only get the static when the Edirol is powered on and connected to the System Input on my Mac.
Has anyone else tried anything like this with different results? I would usually think it's a problem with my Edirol, but I tested it on my stereo, my other computer (PC), and even a guitar amp and the static only seems to appear in Garageband.
Suggestions?
Thanks in advance

I generally reserve the R-09 for live recording and dumping it into GB for mixing.
Do you have the same problem when using other programs (Logic, ProTools, Audacity, etc.)? If so, depending on youyr budget, perhaps you might want to invest in an inexpensive USB Microphone. They can easily be found for less ta $100. I have a Samson and the quality is outstanding.
Strangely enough, I have found the built in Mic on he Mac to be pretty decent as well.

Service line item History for Contracts with item cat - D and Acc Assg P

Hello Gurus,
We have a situation where we create contract with item category D (Service) and account assignment category P (Projects). And for the line items of the PO we have difference services (without a service master) and each service line item has the price and quantity and other required fields. Now it is required to change the price or the quantity or both for this service line time and again (business requirement).
The task is to to track the price changes and the quantity changes that have happened to the serive line item from the original and we require the report to diplay the original price and the present price on the service line.
The question is: Is there a standard report in SAP to handle this? Or which are the tables where a service line items history is stored so that it can lead to a development.

Hi Pankaj,
We are using a Percentage based case (Prorata case)
For Eg : For Eg for 65% (65KAI )material Price 1000 Rs
If the Purity percentage varies payment will be done as per the same. For eg : for 70% (70KAI ) Price 1200 Rs. (approx)
In this case unit of measurement is KAI (kilo active ingredient) .
Actually we are dealing with dealer price where duties are entered Inclusive of the total price and entered at the time of making GR. and the payment is made as per the same;
we have one po for 5000 MT. where we received material at first time Qty being 1993 MT.The duties manuallyentered are as follows :BED :24,167.00
AED : 7,076.00
ECS : 483.00
SECES : 242.00
These duties are flowing correctly in MIRO
and the MIRO has been Posted and payment is also made.
But while the balance quantity 2982 kg we received next time and those duties are as flowing as follws:
BED : 36160
AED : 10587
ECS : 723
SECS : 362
But here at the MIRO the following duties are flowing instead of above
BED : 36,526.08
AED : 10,694.18
ECS : 730.32
SECS : 365.66
What might be the error at this stage.
waiting for solution at the earliest .

No real helpful answer.

If I am not wrong, you need data from SQL tables in form of
XML. Then you can get that straight from SQL by using FOR XML
clause. FOR XML modes can be of 3 types RAW, AUTO or EXPLICIT. You
can use the mode as per your need.

Do I really HAVE to use a wired headset to record with Garageband? Is it 2015?

I'm trying to record on my iPad with Garage band, using a Bluetooth headset.
As many of you already know, there is quite enough being plugged in, balanced on laps, or set on tables while
recording on an iPad. I have a perfectly good bluetooth headset to relieve some of the stresses of recording on
a mobile interface, however it just isn't supported by this app? The app is very well aware of this, so it was not
overlooked, and I certainly paid money for the app (and the ipad), so why am I limited?
Not only would it be nice to hear a legit answer, or even possibly some feedback on how I can bypass this,
but it would also be great if you would just go ahead and update garageband to support bluetooth headsets.

After re-reading the prompt, I see that there may be some kind of delay, but honestly that would just require me to move the track to fit, it's not that big of a deal.

How to use pre-defined scenarios for RosettaNet with XI 3.0

Hi all.
   I am working in Comgroup Shanghai co. ltd. which is partner of SAP China.
   We have a potential customer who use RosettaNet as their Supply Chain EDI system.
   I would like to make a demo for demostrate the pre-defined scenarios for RosettaNet RNIF 2.0 packages.
   Where can I find such guideline ? I have checked the article: implementing RosettaNet with XI 3.0, but it cannot help me.
   Another question is how I can develop my own scenarios for the RNIF standards which are not included in XI RosettaNet business package ?

Hi Andy,
See the instructions below after you installed the RosettaNet STK.
Below given is the sample config for PIP3B2 Scenario. Part I is using STK and Part II is using 2 XI systems.
<b>Part I. Test Using STK</b>
In your XI ID:
1) Define both the parties 1) Shipper(Your Partner) 2) Receiver(Your company) with identifiers like DUNS Number.
2) In ID goto>Tools>Transfer Integration Scenarios from IR-->select the scenario "PIP3B2_Receiver" from the drop down list.
3) Follow the 4 steps in the config wizard.
4) While creating your CC, create it from the channel template delivered with the RosettaNet BP.
   4.1) Specify the URL for STK which should be in the following format
http://<STK Server>:<port>/rosettanet/servlet/listenerServlet?userId=<Party Name>
   4.2)In the location fields, enter your location and your partner location.
In your STK
1) Start the RosettaNet STK.
2) enter the UserID<Partner Name in XI>
3) Select the Test Scenario, 3B2V01.01-AdvanceShipmentNotification-0001-Scenario-Shipper
4) Enter Global Business ID(DUNS Number) and Location ID for both the partners. These fields should be same as in your R/3 Party configuration.
5) Enter the URL as follows:
http://<XI Server:<J2EE_Port>/MessagingSystem/receive/RNIFAdapter/RNIF
If everything is configured correctly as mentioned, you should be able to test your single-action scenario.
<b>Part II Test using another XI System</b>
For these follow the steps above for XI Config.
Configure one XI System as PIP3B2 Shipper using the Scenario "PIP3B2_Shipper" and config wizard as mentioned above.
Configure the other XI as PIP3B2 Receiver using the scenario "PIP3B2_Receiver" and config wizard.
In the Url field, specify the URL as follows:
http://<XI host>:<J2EE_Port>/MessagingSystem/receive/RNIFAdapter/RNIF
Hope this helps.
