Hi, I'm trying to connect my guitar to mac. I have "jack to small plug" lead which plugs into mic port on rear of screen. All advice i can find says go to system prefs, input, then select input wanted (i.e. ext mic in) - problem is there is no other selection for me to make. Only the "internal mic" which is already selected, obviously.
Can anyone advise? Cheers. |

You might invest in an interface. The options are growing constantly. For a quick start, you could pick up a 1/4" to USB cable such as the Stealth Plug or the LightSnake or the GuitarLink. This is what they are made for.
I, personally, wouldn't use the mic input. |
