Hi,

Have just started using logic and so far have been solely using software instruments within logic that came with logic when I bought it (big box). I previously had an korg electribe es-1 and have tried hooking it up into logic to record in drum loops and other samples but I cant get it to work. I think I have the right cable (3/4" phono to 3.5mm phono I think?) and have put it into the right hole in the back of my Mac (i.e. the audio in port?) I have set everything (I think) in the audio hardware and drivers bit I think (set to Mac AV) and then followed the intsrtuction manual i.e. make sure the REC button is flashing etc. but I can't get any response at all....

Am I being really stupid somewhere along the line?

Be sure the audio port you use is an input ! Recent Macs have two outpouts and no more inputs.
In that case you should buy an audio interface.

thanks for the quick reply...

I had already checked this, I have been to the manual and it is definately an 'audio line in'

(I bought a G4 powermac before christmas to give an idea of how new it is)

thanks again....

As you know, I can't suggest anything

See you round

You'll need 1/8" minijack ,not just a regular one that you can buy elsewhere, it has to be the one from apple.
It a little bit longer than a regular one. angry.gif

Will apple be able to sell him a cable with 1/8" Apple minijack to a pair of 1/4" TRS jacks, then?

I wasn't aware that it was a non-standard minijack!!

As far as I know apple stopped using the longer 1/8" jack quite a while ago.

Not that I use the built-in audio jack anymore, however I used a standard 1/8" jack on my B&W G3 and have since set up newer computers for other users with a standard cable.

novicejcc,

I'm assuming you are on OS 9. Have a look in the Apple Menu at Control Panels > Sound. What is your selected source under "Input"?. If it is "CD" change it to "Line In" (or something similar; I can't remember the term as I have no line input on my G4).

Hope this solves the problem!
