Will Garageband on an IMAC with OS 10.7 work with a  Tascam us-600 USB audio interface

I need a USB audio interface to read in DAT tapes from a Tascam DA20 recorder. I want to use the S/PDIF digital output from the recorder.  Has anyone used the Tascam US-600 with the IMAC and Garageband?  Any other recommendations for a USB interface that will accommodate S/PDIF as well as XLR Mic inputs for under $200?

Been there, done that.
I can select the device (US-144), but I do not get any choice for the output channel. The default is to go the analog channel ( channels 1 and 2).
However - I did find a workaround. There is an opensource package called Soundflower:
http://code.google.com/p/soundflower/
From the description:
"Soundflower is a MacOS system extension that allows applications to pass audio to other applications. Soundflower is easy to use, it simply presents itself as an audio device, allowing any audio application to send and receive audio with no other support needed."
This allows me to set the output channel for garage band (and any other app, e.g. itunes) to the digital S/PDIF output.
It would be nice if this functionality was built in to Mac OS X...

    Iphoto will not open I am asked to check with developer that iphoto works with this version of OS x. I have Mountain Lion OS X I have followed all the steps recomended  by T Devlin in a previous discussionand reinstalle ILife but to no avail

    To reinstall iPhoto you'll have to delete the current application and all files with "iPhoto" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the:
    HD/Library/Receipts folder (10.5 and earlier)
    or from the /var/db/receipts/  folder (10.6) .
    or from the /private/var/db/receipts folder (10.7 or later)
    Then install iPhoto from the source it came from originally.

    I see no reason why it shouldn't. At prices I've seen down to $4.39, I wouldn't hesitate to give it a try. That's cheaper than a sandwich!

  • Audio error with garageband and external usb audio interface

    I am using Garageband 2.0.3. under ios 8.0.2 on my iPad 3 and via camera adapter a USB audio interface Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 or a Presonus iTwo.
    When I start Garageband, it works well, the audio interfaces are recognized and I can record a track.
    As soon as I switch from instrumtent to track view, the audio path is completely disturbed and all I can hear is some noise from the speaker.
    Then I have to unplug the usb cable and plug it in again. Then audio works until I switch back to the instrument menu.
    When I use the headphone output only there is no problem with Garageband and everything works fine.
    Other applications audio applications don't show any error with each of the two audio interfaces.
    Any feedback is very much appreciated, thanks.

    I have this exact issue.  However, I tried the Loopy app after after GB crashed and received an error message saying that core audio is not available.  Rebooting resolves but the problem repeats.  Any suggestions as to fixes?  Btw; I have no such problem with Ipad 2 and ios 7.

  • Will a Mackie Control Universal V.2.1.2 work with Logic Pro 9?

    Will a Mackie Universal Controller V. 1.2.1 work with Logic Pro 9?

    Mine does. There was something If I can remember how to do it about after the update selecting the controller to mackie controller. You have the option within the controller itself to be mackie controller or logic controller. If it powers up and says mackie controller, You should be fine. If you have a problem get back to me, Ill look for the link that tells you how to change it.

  • USB Audio Interface with bad latency problems under bootcamp

    Hi everyone,
    I am currently running an Edirol UA-25 USB audio interface under Mac OS X for my normal music-listening needs. Everything works fine, and there is next to no latency when messing around in Garageband .
    However, when I switch into bootcamp to use Cubase SX 3 for audio production and sequencing (has all my windows-only VST instruments), the interface pops and crackles extremely. It's almost as if the USB interface is losing sync..?
    When I turn the buffer up on the drivers, this stops, but it is annoying as I like to have low latency when recording for direct monitoring.
    Can anyone give me any insight into why this might be happening?
    I know this is an audiophile-type question, but I thought I might as well give it a go. Or heck, if you wanna direct me somewhere where they might be able to help me!
    Cheers!
    Chris

    when you select , lets say the USB device in your audio preferences, it will be used as the input and output device. You can use the USB interface's audio outs plugged into your mixer, and use speakers or the headphone jack. When you create an aggregate device, using the USB device and your built in audio, and choose it in your audio preferences, this allows you to use the inputs and outputs of both the USB interface and your built in audio from your mac. So now you can record from one device while listening back on another. meaning you can record the audio from the USB device and listen back using your Mac speakers or from headphones plugged into your mac.
    if you get a better audio interface, one with mic inputs, you will still need to connect it to speakers or plug in headphones to it to hear audio. If you have the budget, a dedicated firewire audio interface will usually give better results, in audio quality, than a behringer mixer and a usb interface.

  • Are USB audio interface issues on iMac Haswell resolved?

    HI,
    i just ordered a 27 inch iMac, maxed out with a 1TB SSD.
    I noticed the imac doesn't have an audio in jack and figured i'd shop for a good USB Audio Interface.
    But then i came across all these USB audio interface issues on the new iMac.
    This is incredible to me because iMacs are often used by creative people and lots of musicians.
    For me audio is VERY important. I record music and i record sound for animation and video.
    Apple thus far seemed to be avoiding the topics and issues at hand.
    Are the USB audio issues resolved? What was resolved? What was the problem (Maverick? Fusion Drive)?
    Is it wise to choose for a Thunderbolt Interface? Which one?
    Any help would be hugely appreciated.
    Especcialy since it seems such a wide spread problem.
    Thanx

    doubt it would be a general issue
    usb is a universal serial bus it always require a driver for anything
    and the driver of one external audio device would act different then the driver from another external audio device
    so it would be very unlikely that an external audio card using a cirrus logic audio chip would cause the same issues with the imac as one with a realtek or soundblaster audio chip
    not that there could not be issues with all of them but not likely that they would suffer from the same issue

  • "Open with Explorer" no longer works with IE 10 & 11 without 32-bit -- What alternative do we have?

    I know that if we open SPS 2010 in IE 10 & IE 11 in 64-bit O/S, "Open with Explorer" no longer works because this function requires 32-bit version of IE.
    I give up to find a way to open IE 10 in 32-bit -- I had tried several so-called solutions but none works for me.  So, I'm looking for an alternative: is there an URL that I can put in
    Windows Explorer's address bar to open the SharePoint page directly?
    I had tried http://mysps/somefolder/etc/      failed!
    I had tried \\mysps\DavWWWRoot            failed again!
    So, I would like to hear to those who have succeeded to use "Open with Explorer" with IE 10 or 11 installed in 64-bit O/S.

    Hi Horinius,
    According to your description, my understanding is that "Open with Explorer" didn’t work with IE 10 & 11 in SharePoint 2010.
    I  commend you use IE 10 or 11 32-bit rather than 64-bit. Then check whether the browser SharePoint add-ons are enabled. If  not, please enable them.
    You can check browser add-ons by opening IE->Tools->Programs->Manage add-ons-> check all add-ons related to SharePoint, such as SharePoint OpenDocuments Class. If there is not any add-on related to SharePoint, please repair your Office by clicking
    Control Panel->Programs and Features-> select your Office, and right-click it, then select ‘Change’.
    Please make sure that webClient service is running on your machine by opening Start->Administrative Tools->Services.

  • Live Capture with a camera via firewire and usb audio interface

    I am trying to do a live capture through Final Cut 7.
    I want the video feed through the firewire from my HVX200 and the audio feed from a 4 channel usb audio interface (Alesis iO4).
    When I have both audio and video input coming in from the HVX200, the live capture works fine.
    However, when I change the audio input so that it is coming from the usb audio interface, final cut has an error message saying "Video is not available."
    During the preview, I see the video clearly and am getting levels from the iO4.
    But when I try to capture, I get the error message.
    Is it a processor issue (I've attached my specs below) with problems handling 2 separate inputs?
    I'm not quite sure what the problem is.
    Any input is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!
    Model Name:          MacBook Pro

    Hi MtD,
    Yes I am changing the Capture preset to iO4.  Once that happens, it lets me run both the camera and the iO4 into the laptop but then an error message pops up the moment I try to capture it.
    I was only trying to use 3 out of the 4 channels of the iO4.
    Thanks!

    Afraid not - AppleTV does not support USB audio devices.
    I assume you don't mean using the device as an optical input for the computer, connecting AppleTV's optical out to it.

    Hi Vidya,
    Thanks for posting your example. You may want to remove your workspace details from the previous posting, or at least update the password on the workspace. I've taken a look at your example and initially couldn't see anything wrong with your tree query. However, when I ran your query in SQL Workshop, it only returned one row, which would explain why you were only seeing one node in your tree! I've updated your query to use a WITH clause, and the tree is now working correctly. I believe you've hit an underlying database bug where the CONNECT BY query is only returning 1 row, when in fact it should return > 1 row. By re-writing the query to use a WITH clause, you can get around the problem.
    Regards,
    Hilary
