Hi
I have an iMac G%, Garage Band, Presonus Firebox and a Microphone and am setting it up for the first time, but after doing it I cannot get the mic to record in Garage Band. I am new to all of this, but I changed the audio in system preferences to Firebox and changed it in Garage Band as well, but I cannot get any sound coming from the mic, which is brand new as well. I am going to have the mic checked, but am wondering if I have missed something basic. The Firebox came with Cubase LE which would have showed me how to test the system, but unfortunately Cubase would not install because of some error, so I couldn't check it that way. The iMac recognized Firebox and the lights go to blue correctly, although if I push the button on the front of Firebox, the blue light disappears and I have to unplug the firewire and plug it in again to get the blue light on again. Any suggestions as to what I should check in Firebox or Garage Band that I may be missing. In the Firebox manual it states to right click on the Control Panel icon to change some settings, but right clicking does nothing. Is that for PC? Thanks Brian |

I contacted Presonus and they told me the iMac firewire doesn't work well and I have to use the AC power?????
Anyway, it seems to have settled down and the blue lights work as they are supposed to with only the firewire connection. Brian |
