Cannot record with M-Audio "Mobile Pre"?

Just updated to GB 10.0.3 and OS 10.10.1 Now I cannot record tracks using M-Audio "Mobile Pre" USB pre amp interface as I used to. The Pre works fine with Audacity as in the past. Is there a fix for this in Garage Band by any chance? Thanks for any advice.

Did you install the latest drivers?

Audio issues with Recording analog source

I'm trying to connect a turntable via the input/output (headphone) jack on the side of the monitor. No luck. Why?
Connecting via USB works, but I can't monitor the incoming signal (using mic input), no matter how I tweak the Windows audio mixer (as well as the software I'm using to record.
Very very frustrating. I'm afraid the single in/out jack is the problem, as my previous HP didn't have this problem.
thanks in advance!

The click can be found on the transport bar with the play stop rewind functions etc, the transport bar is normally at the bottom of the project, with the metronome being on the right hand side
If your recording multiple tracks at the same time, you need the relevent amount of tracks open, with each one being assigned a relevent input from audio source coming.
For example you want audio track 1 to have the audio coming from the guitar which may be input 1
Hope this helps

Cannot record or import audio

I've tested the .wav files I'm using by plaing them in media player and importing them into Flash and Premiere Pro. The files play in these other apps.

I am having audio issues. I cant hear callers but I think they hear me. My keyboard isnt creating the little noise either.

I cant hear callers. I hear the phone ring. I answer and they can hear me but not I them.
the keyboard doesnt ding with each pressing of the letter either

For the Keyboard Clicks issue: Have you checked to make sure that the Keyboard Clicks options is toggled to "On" in the settings?
Settings->Sounds->Keyboard Clicks
For the Receiver problem: I would backup the device in iTunes. Then attempt a Restore, followed by setting the iPhone up as a new device. Make sure you rename your iPhone something different as to not overwrite the existing backup you made. Doing this will not bring any of your information back onto the device, but will give you the opportunity to test the device with a new operating system installed on it. If the problem persist after the restore (set up as a new device) then the problem lies in the hardware. If the problem does not persist, then you will need to avoid restore the device from your backup, as the problem lies in a corrupted operating system. Please let me know if you have any questions.
Hope this helps

Audio issue H264 - MPEG-4 AVC / audio PCM U8 (u8 ) 12000 khz

Hi all
I have this issue with pp cs5 - 5.0.3
Importing a 720p .MOV clip from a compact camera "canon powershoot a3300 is", the video preview, editing and quality is ok but the first 3 second of audio is looped along the clip duration.
All the player, quicktime 7.6.9, Vlc, play the clip and the sound is good.
Gspot say: codec avc1 - H.264 audio raw 8-bit unsigned 12000 hz
Vlc say: H264 - MPEG-4 AVC (part 10) (avc1) audio PCM U8 (u8) mono 12000 hz
Qt say: H264 1280x720 - 8 bit - mono - 12.000 khz
With other clip from my sony xdcam ex1 or other format... premiere cs5 go fine
Another system with premiere cs4, the import and the editing is ok.
Any ideas?
thanks

thanks
I had already tried but not working
The video is ok with all the preset that match 720p ...but not the audio
...i think is a codec issue

Files recently downloaded from Canon Legeria FS306 do not play the audio. Can hear audio on camera or downloading same files to a PC. Also hear audio on earlier files downloaded from same camera to iMovie '11. How do I avoid problem & recover lost audio?

Files recently downloaded from Canon Legeria FS306 to iMovie '11 do not play the audio. I can still hear audio on the camera or by downloading the same files to a PC. Can also hear audio on earlier files downloaded from the same camera to iMovie '11. How do I avoid this problemand recover lthe ost audio?

The first thing to try is to run Software Update (the Update tab in the Mac App Store.). This was an issue a couple of releases ago, and an update seemed to fix it.
If you are already at the most recent version of iMovie, then I don't know how to solve you issue. Maybe someone else will have some ideas.

X120e audio issues

Greetings,
I have an x120e that I bought in August (8GB Ram upgade). I have been having some audio issues whilst doing some light audio editing in Audobe Audition (CS 5.5) and listening to music.
When my internal speakers are playing sound, it frequently occurs that the sound quality turns to crap. It sounds like the bitrate has fallen to the lowest possible setting. It sounds like it is only playing out of the right channel mainly, and is similiar to if my computer was inside of a metal bucket. I've tried updating the sound driver, but even after I downloaded it, and installed it, the driver date for the device is still old.
The music files I am playing back and editing are large and generally uncompressed. Could this have something to do with it?
Any help would be much appreciated as I am editing videos on this machine, and it is difficult to edit if the sound quality is poor.
Cheers,

Hi El_Capitan
1. How about playing the sound with an external speakers or headphone?
2. Go to Start, Control Panel, Sound, under Playback tab, double-click Speakers, go to Advanced, under Default Format, choose the highest, click Apply and OK. (Repeat the steps for Headphones and Microphone)
Does the following steps help?
Have a nice day!

Can't hear Midi Software Instrument & Audio won't record

I have used Logic in a basic way for years and have never had trouble but I reinstalled logic onto a new macbook and using a new interface.
On launching a new project, I selected software instrument, and chose a yamaha piano studio. I can see that the MIDI signal is being received in Logic and will record but I cannot hear any sound.
When audio track is selected, I can hear the sounds being picked up from the microphone in my headphones and can see it on logic...but when I try to record, no sound is recorded.
Is this to do with output settings?
I know its probably something very straightforward but I have been searching the forums for hours and can't seem to resolve.
Interface: PreSonus AUDIOBOX USB.
My keyboard (YAMAHA P-80) is connected correctly to the audiobox which in turn is connected to the computer.

Do I have to get a pre amp or something to boast the volume of the USB keyboard?
you're recording MIDI, not audio, you can't "pre-amp" the digital signal.
you can raise the instrument volume a bit more:

Cannot hear audio from external iSight

My machine is a 2007 Mac Pro octo, 16GB RAM, OS 10.5.2. Software Update reports the system as up-to-date.
I just got an external iSight webcam. It's recognized by System Profiler as model 0x8, revision 1.0.3. (For unknown reasons it's reported as having four sub-units and a 200MB/sec connection speed.) iSight Updater reports the unit as up-to-date.
Its video appears in iChat's (4.0.2) video preview window, and the video's quality is acceptable. The audio meter at the bottom of the preview displays a signal that varies in response to the sound level in the iSight's environment.
The iSight appears in System Prefs/Sound as a FireWire input. The display there varies with the environment's sound level, and is responsive to changes in the Input Volume setting on the same screen.
The iSight shows up in Audio MIDI Setup as a fixed one-channel, 16-bit, 48kHz audio source.
The above tells me the iSight is producing an audio signal. Nothing I've been able to do, however, has permitted me actually to hear this audio signal. Whether I select the Mac Pro's built-in output, its built-in line output, or an external FireWire audio interface, I cannot hear the iSight's audio. Using these same configurations, however, I can hear audio from QuickTime Player or any other audio app I've tried, as well as all system alerts. The problem seems to lie in the signal's routing.
I've followed this forum's maintenance and troubleshooting guidelines, including isolating the iSight on the FireWire bus and repairing permissions from a second 10.5.2 start-up drive.
I've spent several hours searching for clues about what might be happening, but have exhausted the suggestions I could find.
Does anyone have any further thoughts on how I might go about capturing this camera's audio signal?
I'd appreciate any assistance that gets me there.
Thanks.

Hello Hominahomina
You sound like an experienced Mac user, and you have tried most of the things that can cause this problem. You probably have already checked to be certain that your iChat > Video > Microphone Enabled has a check (tick) mark.
If so, the next suspect I can suggest for your consideration is a possible hardware or software conflict with your "external FireWire audio interface". Disconnect it and test iSight audio again. If it still does not work, uninstall any software that was installed with your audio interface and try again.
If that does not help, you can use any of the suggestions from How to test your iSight to ensure it is functional that you have not already tried.
If, when you play back the file, you can hear the sound recorded with your iSight using iMovie (4 or later), QuickTime Pro, or some other app that can record audio, your iSight itself cannot be the problem. You may have a corrupted iChat preference file. Try this:
• quit iChat if it is running
• delete your Home(User)/Library/Preferences/com.apple.ichat.plist file.
A new .plist file will be created the next time you launch iChat, but deleting the .plist file deletes several iChat preference settings, so those you want to be different from the default values will need to be reset.
If all else fails, your external iSight likely needs help form an Apple Service Technician. The external iSight you bought is likely not covered by Apple Warranty. If the seller is not providing you service guarantees or warranty, you may be want to check Apple's iSight Service: Frequently Asked Questions. If your external iSight needs parts that you or your Service Technician cannot locate, http://www.synaptech.com may be able to help you obtain those that are still available.
BTW, your posted system info shows Mac OS X (10.4.10), but you say that you repaired permissions from "a second 10.5.2 start-up drive." Hopefully, your posted info merely needs to be updated. Although we must start from a different disk to repair a disk, I am sure you know that we repair permissions on a startup disk using its disk utility when started from that drive. For benefit of less experienced readers, don't repair permissions for a disk with one Mac OS version (like 10.4.x) when started up from a different Mac OS like 10.5.x because doing so can cause serious permissions problems.

Cannot Record Audio In CS6

I am trying to record an audio track in Premire Pro CS6 and cannot seem to get it to work.
I have a USB microphone that funcations fine, I can see the levels in Premiere and it reconds well in other programs. When I sletect my track for recording I can see the levels in the Audio Mixer, but when I press Record then Play the levels do not transfer over to the Master track and after I stop recording the audio does not get tracked, it was like it didn't record.
I have followed the steps in this article: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/premierepro/cs/using/WS1c9bc5c2e465a58a91cf0b1038518aef7-7f3ca .html as well as other video tutorials from other websites.
I follow the steps exactly and it will not record.

I was actually able to solve my issues. It turns out I had an In and Out point set on the sequence timeline. If you have an In and Out point audio will ONLY record between the two points and no where else. After removing the In and Out points I was able to record audio just fine.

DV6-3120us cannot record streaming audio

There is a program I like that streams it's audio on the Internet but is at an hour that is very inconvenient for me to listen to. They do not offer any downloadable file. In the past I have used Audacity to record the program and then listen the next day. I've done this with both Compaq and HP desktops and laptops as well as other manufacturers.
I have not been able to do it with my current HP laptop [DV6-3120us [AMD Turion II P-540 Dual Core 2.40GHz]] which has Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit with 4GB RAM.
I am currently using Audacity 2.0.0. I have followed the instructions at http://audacity.sourceforge.net/help/faq_i18n?s=recording&i=streaming and have also tried http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/tutorial_recording_computer_playback_on_windows.html. In both cases I get nothing but a static hum but none of the audio I can hear playing through my speakers. I tried it while having my Bluetooth headset connected but it made no difference. I have tried recording other streaming audio in case the stream was being blocked from recording but could not record any of them. I also tried recording audio generated by the computer and could not. I have hooked up both a CD player and a tapedeck to the line-in and microphone jacks and was able to record the sounds.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What version of Premiere Elements and on what computer operating system?     Elements 13 on Windows 7
What is the brand/model/settings of the camera that recorded these videos?        ony PMW 320
When you import them into your Premiere Elements project, what does Premiere Elements Properties for that import give for
the audio description in the way of number of channels? If you open the Audio Meter (Window Menu/Audio Meters) and you play back
the video in the Premiere Elements Editor, how many channels does the Audio Meter display?
I just drag and drop video and when playing back only channel 1 will appear
What is your intended export for this video in terms of audio as well as video compression and formats?    MP4
I think you can only use audio if it's recorded on channel 1 or it does not recognize it.
