I've just started to use my new imac, gargageband 2, and wondered if anybody could help me attach a pair of powered monitors. The imac help says plug external speakers into the usb point and then select the speaker type . Not so easy when the monitors have 1/4 inch jacks!!

get a cheap Audio interface/ if its just for connecting speakers then you could get a cheap monitering hardware product or a cheap mixer ... but if your using garage band and doing the music get a small audio interface dude...
Heaps out there ..... Just make sure its Drivers are compatible with your system cause its useless without a good driver.. Presonus - FIrebox http://www.presonus.com/firebox.html (firewire) Digidesign,- Mbox check out Motu.com there interfaces are good lots of others but the presonus one is small and later on if you wanna record vocals guitar bass etc you can but if you want more later on ( think about how many ins/outs you need). good luck mate from Australia |
