Where are my Audio/MIDI Setup custom icons hiding?

I was attempting to add a custom icon to my Audio/MIDI Setup collection when I realized they're nowhere to be found.
My custom icons are currently being used, so they are somewhere.
I can readily locate "/Library/Audio/MIDI Devices/Generic/Images/" but not a folder names "Custom".
Spotlight searches have turned up nothing.
Ideas anyone? Thanks!

I use a little app [Funter] to un-hide all HIDDEN FILES in the Mac. Then my custom icon folder was easy to find. That was the simple solution.

Audio MIDI Setup - drop-down menu of mfrs. and devices empty?

As the subject says, I'm trying to set up my small arsenal of MIDI gear, and the drop-down lists of manufacturer and device names in the Audio MIDI Setup->MIDI window are empty (there are supposed to be dozens of items to choose from). I've just recently performed a new installation of Snow Leopard, and everything is up to date. I even installed Garage Band, thinking that its installation might fix the missing MIDI device list, but no luck. Another odd thing is that my MOTU MTP AV is recognized by name within System Profiler (as an attached USB device), but I had to install drivers for it to appear in the MIDI Setup window.
Anyone experience this and/or have a solution? I own Pacifist, and if someone knows where the missing files are located within the SL installer disc I could try a custom installation. Help...

same problem here, no more device manufacturers and names, but a bigger problem to me is that I see no way of reorganizing the view in the MIDI window anymore, it puts all my devices next to each other, with 30 devices that makes it totally unusable.

I am unable to adjust the Master volume in the Audio MIDI Setup utility.

For either built-in Input or Output. The systems effected are:
MacBook Pro, 13-inch, Mid 2012 (Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4 11E2617).
iMac, 20-inch, Mid 2007 (Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4 11E53).
The volume can otherwise be adjusted via the Sound sytem preferences or the volume control in the Finder's menu bar. I can even adjust the volume for the individual channels for Buil-in Input and Output within Audio MIDI Setup. It is only the Mater volume that can't be adjusted.
Does anyone have any insight as to why this might be? Any assistance would be much appreciated.

I have Iphone4s 16GB, IOS7.0.4 updates having a problem , that when i press + or - volume keys while my iphone is ringing my iphone 4s goes silent .
Whereas you know silent key is used to make the ringing phone silent. This button is working ok while only problem is my iphone goes silent while pressing + or - volume keys as these keys should increase / lower the ringing volume . These keys were ok working in IOS 6.
Where as these keys are also working ok in music player of iphone for IOS 7, the only problem is for ringing.

Audio-MIDI setup not opening? MIDI device not being seen?

Hello,
I have a big MIDI problem never seen before - just put a new drive into a G5 PPC Quad - I outfitted and loaded up this drive in a G5 dual machine before the Quad came, and everything ran smoothly - logic, MIDI, audio, etc. Now that the G5 Quad's here, that same drive stalls when opening the Audio-MIDI setup and never gets past "looking" for things. Similarly, if I try and open logic, it goes through all the steps until "checking for MIDI drivers" where it just hangs, never to open...I tried reinstalling via the custom install the Unitor drivers from the Logic CD - same problem.
The drive is 250GB SATA, installed OSX 10.4.10, Logic 7.2.3, latest proapps 4.0.1 and other software, hooked up via USB to a Unitor8, FF800 for audio, G5 Quad 2.5Ghz PPC.
Any help is much appreciated - we need this machine as our main sequencer!!
thanks-

Install the Midi driver first before switching on the Midi-Interface,
then after check for the latest up-date on the Driver,
Then Re-boot Machine, plug in Interface and good luck,
Check to see if the CABLE is plugged in properly.
Not sure if this is the same as what you've got,
see site below.

Audio MIDI SetUp unexpected quits

HI,
Does anyone has experienced unexpected quits with Audio MIDI SetUp by simply clicking on the icons of IAC Driver,Network, new external device, etc?
This happens at random, some times it happens inmediately upon clicking(selecting)an item, most of the times nothing happens and everything is OK.
For those of you who understand the crash report., I would like to thank any insight on this issue:
Thanks in advance

Hi, Diazruanova.
1. You might try trashing the related preferences:• The file com.apple.audio.AudioMIDISetup.plist in your Home > Library > Preferences folder.
• The file com.apple.MIDI.xxx.plist in your Home > Library > Preferences > ByHost folder, where xxx is an alphanumeric string2. I notice you have some Unsanity "haxies" installed. These often prove problematic. I suggest checking for updates, disabling them, or uninstalling them.
3. An errant Startup or Login Item maybe the cause. My "Troubleshooting Startup and Login Items" FAQ can help you pin that down if such an item is causing the problem.
4. Immediately after the problem occurs, check the ends of these Console logs for clues, i.e. messages related to Audio Midi Setup other than the message indicating that it has written a crash report.
Good luck!

Settings for Audio MIDI Setup

I have a G4 laptop that I use with a VX pocket at home, and with inbuilt audio at work. I configure audio midi the way I want for each location. Can this be automated? How do I go about getting automator into to list of actions with workflows?

Audio MIDI Setup has no Automator actions written for it (that I'm aware of) and is unlikely to get them soon as it lacks an AppleScript API. An automated solution is going to be reduced to mimicking user input (pushing buttons and sliding controls) with System Events. For an explanation and example see this recent thread.
I can help you work out the specific syntax for the script, but first I'll need to see the two configurations you're switching between. Open Audi MIDI Setup, hit Command-Shift-4 on your keyboard, then hit the space bar, then click the shaded setup window with the camera-icon cursor. Locate "Picture 1" on your desktop and rename it "MIDI Setup 1." Reconfigure your settings and repeat these steps, renaming the file "MIDI Setup 2." If you have a hosted website or storage space where you can upload the files, go ahead and link to them in your reply. If not, you may e-mail them to me and I'll post them.

Audio MIDI Setup Issue -- "Thru" checkbox greyed out

I received my new PowerBook (DL Superdrive) last week and transferred my files from my old PB (the final 1GHz Titanium model) over the weekend. On my TiBook, I used to plug an analogue radio into the Line In port and Apple Pro speakers (via an iFire) into the Headphones port. I then ticked the "Thru" checkbox alongside the M(aster) Volume Slider in the Audio Input section of Audio MIDI Setup (even in Tiger, once I worked out where the checkbox was -- see <http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=740942>) to listen to the radio through the external speakers and control output volume using the keyboard's volume & mute keys.
Audio MIDI Setup on the new Powerbook has some differences, however, including:
1. In the Audio Input section, the M(aster) Volume Slider IS NOT greyed out, but the "Thru" checkbox on this line IS greyed out., and the 1 & 2 Volume Sliders ARE also greyed out.
2. Clock Source is "Internal Clock" rather than [greyed out] "Default".
The first of these differences has left me unable to set up my audio as I used to. Instead, I've had to run a non-Apple audio application, LineIn, in order to achieve the same result. The trouble with this is that I've also experienced the audio stuttering loop described in <http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302978>, possibly as a result of this app running.
Two questions: First, does anyone have any idea how to get Audio MIDI Setup running on the new Powerbook as it did (does) on the TiBook, so that I can dispense with LineIn?
Second, do any of the other Powerbook owners with the audio stuttering problem have similar issues with Audio MIDI Setup -- is it a common factor/symptom/cause?
PB G4 15" 1.67GHz DL SuperDrive Mac OS X (10.4.4)

The audio stuttering issue was resolved by an OS X update shortly after I posted this message, but I never did resolve the other issue, and continue to use LineIn to this day (now on a MacBook Pro C2D.

Built in microphone not an option for Audio MIDI Setup

Hi! I am using a Macbook Pro, updated up to 10.7.5 I can't update any higher due to lack of sufficient memory. Anyway, I've been trying to use Soundflower to begin recording Minecraft videos, and upon setting it up I noticed my Audio MIDI Setup does not have the Built in Microphone option. Without it, I cannot use Soundflower. I watched videos back when 10.7.5 was the newest update and they have this option in their Audio MIDI Setup. Why don't I? Can someone help me figure this out?

Hi krk102588 - welcome to the forum!
I've just come across your post, and cannot believe that no-one replied to your issue before now!
So if you're still around......
You just click on the iMovie tool with the microphone icon on it. That opens a floating window showing audio levels etc. Click on a clip where you want the voice-over to occur, and after the 'getting ready' beeps, start talking! Simple. No need to fiddle with System Prefs/Sound, unless the Internal Microphone is not selected.

Reloading Audio MIDI Setup (AMS) settings

Hello all, I recently had to reinstall a fresh copy of OS X onto my system but I did make a backup of my hard drive before hand. Is it possible to reload my old Audio MIDI Setup (AMS) settings from my backup hard drive? If so, where might I find that file? Thanks
G5 2.5 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

More specifically, SL has broken something with regard to AMS!
I'm a film composer using LOTS of hardware MIDI devices (in addition to my soft-synth array). Yes, hardware still exists, and serves a vital/professional purpose. I've got 6 MOTU MTP-AV interfaces (all USB) and they all connect their individual MIDI ports to individual MIDI devices.
In all versions of OSX (pre SL), AMS would retain my graphic layout of my studio. Now, no matter what I do now, AMS insists upon snapping the entire hardware footprint along the top portion of my AMS screen. Completely useless and arcane!
All versions of AMS were bad enough (a step backwards from MOTU's OS9 FreeMIDI), but this is truly ridiculous.
Are we all giving up on hardware/professional synths??? Can this be fixed???

Where are Core Audio prefs

Hi
I'm just wondering where core audio preferences are, as I doing an upgrade and have backed up my library and users, but cannot see where core audio prefs are ?
TTFN
Subcoustic

What do you mean by "Core Audio Preferences"..?
Are you talking about Logic preferences, or OSX audio related stuff? (largely dealt with by the Audio MIDI Setup Utility..) This stuff is all over the place - it depends what audio, MIDI drivers you have installed, whether you've setup aggregate devices and so on...

Finding audio-midi setup files after user account has been moved

I brought my MacBook Pro to the Apple Store and without my knowledge, they created a new user account and moved everything over. This has caused a lot of headaches, the latest being that my Digital Performer prefs are set back to factory and my detailed audio midi setups are gone.
Does anyone know where the audio midi setup files might be located on the HD so I can reattach them to the app?
Thanks.
Scott

Having the same problem on 10.9.2: When I restart, the Audio Midi Setup settings are reset.

I need to upgrade my 10.5.1 os on my G4/1.25 (I'm having some audio-midi setup problems), but it's a machine that is not connected to the internet. Do I have any options? Thanks!

Friends,
I'm having some audio-midi setup problems on my G4/1.25/10.5.1 machine. I'm thinking that a routine OS upgrade might help. However, this machine is not connected to the internet. Are there any alternate methods for upgrading system software? Thanks in advance!

OK, what you should do is download the updates on another machine and burn them to a disc. Start at this link http://support.apple.com/downloads/#leopard for downloads and find, among other things, the 10.5.8 combo updater that works on PPC machines, plus security, QuickTime and other updates. Going from 10.5.1 to 10.5.8, there will probably be a bunch of things that you should install. Being off the internet with the machine, you can't have Software Update sort it out, so something might get missed, unfortunately.
My suggestion is this: if it looks like you might need a download, get it onto that disc.

Kawai CN41 electric piano will not show up in Audio MIDI Setup.

Hello,
I have a Kawai CN41 Piano that I would like to connect to my Macbook via USB to control some midi functions in Logic Express (incredible software by the way...)
The Manual that came with the piano says that it should just work. But for maximum clarification, I'll retype what the manual says.
"The CN41 piano can be connected with a personal computer with a USB cable for excahanging MIDI data. You need a USB Driver installed in your computer.
[For Windows XP/ME users]
A standard USB driver is already installed in your computer. You don't need to install a new driver.
[For Windows 2000/98SE users]
You need to install the desigated driver in your computer. Visit the KAWAI website at http:/www.kawai.co.jp/english/Download1.html and download the program.
[For Macintosh users]
Macintosh OSX automatically recognizes our USB interface. No Special driver is needed. Older Macintosh OS are not supported by us. If you have an older Macintosh OS, please us an appropriate MIDI interface and MIDI cables when connecting the CN41 piano to a macintosh computer.
NOTE:
When both MIDI jacks and USB port are connected, USB has priority.
When connecting USB cable to the CN41 piano, first connect the USB cable and then turn the power of the CN41 piano on.
It may take some time to start communication when the CN41 piano is connected to the computer via USB. When USB communication is unstable with connection via hub, connect the USB cable directly to the USB port of the computer.
Turning the power of CN41 piano on/off or disconnecting the USB cable while the follwing actions may cause unstable communication.
while installing USB driver
while booting up the computer
while MIDI application is working
while communicating with the computer
while the computer is in energy saver mode
* If you have any problem with USB communication, consult the instruction manual of your computer and check your computer setup.
* The USB-MIDI conversion board TID10000934 used in the CN41 piano is approved to show the USB logo. The USB logo can be used only for the product which is approved by USB-IF (USB Implements Fourm Inc.) test.
* Windows is registered trademark of Microsoft Corporation.
* Macintosh is registered trademark of Apple Computer, Inc."
So when i follow the directions just like the manual says the only thing that happens is my mouse stops working for about 30 to 45 seconds. After it starts working, nothing whatsoever in the department of MIDI. It won't even show up in the Audio MIDI Setup application. Also, I'm not 100% positive about this, but I don't think it's showing up in the System Profiler as well.
I've tried pushing the rescan button in Audio MIDI Setup, nothing.
I've repeated everything with a different usb cable with no improvement.
And I even contacted Kawai Technical Support. The guy I talked to via email said that he wasn't a mac guy but he'd ask his friends who were if they had any problems, his friends told him that everything was working fine for them. Then he told me to go and buy a USB-MIDI interface and plug it into the traditional MIDI ports on the CN41 and see if that would work. (I really don't want to do that, one of the reasons I bought this piano is the midi-straight-to-computer-via-usb-cable-connection connection. Buying a little usb interface would defeat the point. Although, I'll probably buy one down the road eventually. I would just like it to work.)
This piano is really nice, It has keys that feel like the real thing and using it to write some tracks in Logic Express would be a delight if it would work. If I could, I would take this issue to the Apple store in Salt Lake City, but I'm thinking that I would also have to take the piano and its kinda big. I'm using a Macbook running OS X Leopard 10.5.4 with a 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor and 2 Gigs of ram. I also run a Line 6 Toneport UX2, I'm not sure if there could be any Hardware conflicts, but I'm not much of a computer guy so I figured I'd just let you know as much as I can.
Aside from this thing with the piano, OSX has worked beautifully! I will never buy a Windows running machine again. And the few times when I'm forced to use one, (Work and stuff) I get really cranky.
Thank you for your time,
Jon Worms
P.S. I'm more than willing to scan the manual and email it for you upon request, I tried to find a link to it somewhere with no luck. But you know, thats just my luck. :P

Hey Rob, Thanks for responding!
As far as I can see there is not. The piano does have 3 usb ports on it though. 2 A size ports to go to Kawai approved devices, such as a hard drive for recording directly to portable memory. These plugs are labeled USB to Device. Then it has one B size plug that is Labeled USB to Host. The manual says that this is the one to connect to the computer.
USB Controls do exist though. But manual states that they are for when you plug in a small hard drive/flash drive. The controls allow you to create new folders and move recordings around on a flash drive. And without a hard drive plugged into one of the A size ports I don't get anything but an error message.
Tomorrow I'm going to try and get it to work on a windows box. Maybe i'll have a little luck.
Thanks for your help.

How do I get my Built-in Mic to work in Audio MIDI setup, grayed out 1

My iMac is over a month old, and the first week I had it I tried to talk on Skype with a friend. My mic wouldn't work, and after making an Apple Care appointment with a local Mac store last weekend, we found out that the iMac DOES hear me, Dictation works with my voice, but for some reason Skype won't pick me up. Another program I sometimes use is Livestream Procaster, and neither pick up audio from me, oddly though they do pick up finger tapping on the desk, which is no further away from the computer than I myself am.
I Googled this issue with Skype and I found this page:
http://community.skype.com/t5/Mac/Apple-IMAC-Internal-Microphone/td-p/305172
It shows a screen capture using Audio MIDI Setup, and I opened mine to make sure everything was in order, but my CH: 1 & 2 are both grayed out, so I can't adjust them at all.
I have a screen capture of my window as well:
And I did check to make sure that my Interal Mic is selected in Skype, Livestream Procaster, and even my iMac's System Preferences. I wonder if it has something to do with this Audio MIDI Setup. I don't actually know, but from searching for solutions, this is the only thing that doesn't seem to match up with suggestions I've found online.
Thanks guys for any help.

I'm talking with a friend, and he says I'm muffled, and he can't understand me but can hear that I'm talking. When I turn on dictation to record what I'm saying he says I come through crystal clear.
The problem is I don't know if this is a Mac issue or a Skype issue. I was going to go to Skype, but when I found that page that I linked to above, that's what lead me to believe it's a Mac issue again because I can't get my Audio MIDI Setup to match the suggestion made by the user in that link.

IMac won't recognise USB MIDI keyboard in Audio MIDI Setup

I upgraded earlier in the week from a G4 eMac to a new Intel iMac. All appeared well until I tried to use my Evolution MK-361 USB midi keyboard from inside Logic. No midi events were coming through the system.
After some fiddling around I found the Audio MIDI Setup utility and the keyboard is not listed as a device in there. However, if I open System Profiler and select the USB information I can see that the keyboard is connected. According to the E-Magic web site this model of keyboard is class compliant and so shouldn't need a driver installed.
Originally I had the keyboard plugged into a USB hub. I've tried restarting the machine, restarting the machine with the cable plugged into different USB ports and different USB cables plugged into different USB ports. I've also downloaded all the latest OS / firmware / application updates and installed them.
I reconnected the keyboard to my old eMac and it shows up on there so I know it's not a fault in the keyboard itself.
The only other bits of gear connected to the machine are a Lacie external hard drive and my Saffire but these are firewire device so I wouldn't expect them to cause a problem (they certainly didn't on the eMac).
If anyone has any ideas I would seriously appreciate the help. As you can imagine I'm pretty gutted having forked out a grand for the machine.
Cheers
Jon
iMac (Intel) Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Hi Jon
So much for plug and play
Yeah, it's great isn't it?
I emailed M-Audio tech support about it and apparently it's a known problem in 10.4.8 and they're waiting for a fix from Apple. I guess I'll just have to keep my eyes peeled for OS updates and go rummaging under the stairs for a midi cable instead.
Ho hum.
Jon

Where are my Audio/MIDI Setup custom icons hiding?
