Hello,
I've got the following equipments: - an imac with Pro Tools Free and Logic AUdio running under OS 9.2.2, -a Yamaha DX7, - a Midisport UNO 1*1 Midi Interface - OMS 2.3.8 The Midi IN/OUT are OK but the issue is that I can't hear the DX7 on the Mac eventhought I connected its audio output to the audio input of the Mac? The audio output of the DX7 works perfectly when I connect it to my stereo so the problem must be related to the configuration of the sequencers (which is not so well explained in the manuals...). Thank in advance for your help! Bye, John |

Check the length of male end of the adapter you're using to go into the Mac; check it against the plug of a Mac mic that works, if possible. The wrong length plug on the adapter will not properly connect with the insides of the input plug, and there is more than one length. On some computers Apple used some funky thing that you can find an adapter for, but it might take a little legwork.
If that doesn't work and isn't the problem, maybe invest in Griffin Technology's iMic (around 50 bucks) to at least get you going. That boosts the signal to where it needs to be. |
