i have a delta 1010 m-audio 24bit audio recording system and a soundcraft spirit sx mixer. iv set it up so i can play music on my pc via the mixer/soundcard. problm is i cant get logic or any music production software to read my mic n the sliders on the mixer dont control anything. i dont think I'm wired right. i need help pls.

Hi there guys, i really need some help, this is my first attempt at going fully digital, my previous setup was anoolog outs from my 2 Mackie onyx 800r units into delta 1010 pci soundcards. i have now bought a M-audio Profire Lightbridge and need help syncing everything as i am pretty new to all this.

I recently bought direct injection box BSS AR-133 as I heard that it is very good for bass recording.

But now I am confused as I don't know how to connect it to my soundcard which has only RCA connector.

BSS AR-133 has only XLR output and needs to be fed via phantom power or 9 V battery.

In the owners manual for the Tascam dp-02cf I purchased it says never to connect your speaker output from your guitar amp to the recorder.

Is this a power regulation issue or could it possibly do much harm by doing so..

So is my only option to mic the amp?

i stopped by guitar center today to ask them how to set up my tc helicon and this is what they've told me;

use a 1/4 cable wire and connect that from the line input of the tc helicon into the line input of the preamp. connect a dual 1/4 cable wire into the balanced outputs (LEFT/Right) of the tc helicon and into the PreSonus firebox audio interface 3 / 4.

I have a really easy question. I have an M-Audio Delta Audiophile 192 sound card with:
Main Input (connects to mixer)
Main Output (sound before it gets to my software)
Monitor Output (the sound after software)

So this is a whole new side of audio to me. I've been loaned a brand new Alesis pad from an endorsee who wants me to be his programmer, problem is I have never worked with midi on my own or anything like this in my life. Now I'm already failing at making this pad work with Ableton. The pad is plugged in and was installed successfully.

WICKED NOOB QUESTION HERE! (but I'm not afraid) :D

So, I picked up a Great River ME-1NV and want to get it running..have to go through the Apogee Duet though to get to the iMac, so here's what I've been through...

The Duet had two XLR connections and two Instrument (1/4"). You can run the XLRs as:

1) XLR
2) XLR line level +4db
3) XLR line leve -10db

I'm trying to hook up an RME Fireface 800 and Apogee Ensemble to my iMac Core Duo, running Logic.
I've connected the two pieces using the ADAT in and out. The Fireface is connected to the computer with a firewire.

OK, so, I have macbook, a firepod, a Yamaha P-140 stage piano, and reason 3.0. My goal is to use the keyboard in reason by running a midi cable from the midi out on the piano to the midi in on the firepod. For some reason, this is not working. Does anyone have any experience hooking up midi devices to Reason? Or using the midi input on the firepod?
