macrumors newbie
So I started recording in garageband using my amp
bass/gitar>amp>mac via 1/4 to 1/8 converter
I've been using this for a couple days, same setup, same guitars
I was using my bass, then went to guitar, and when I went back to bass, it wasn't working.
It only picks up any signal when I blast the amp and is clipping like mad (but I can barely hear it)
I'm learning now that it is wise to use a preamp or audio interface because the mac's low impedance input may not be able to handle the high impedance signal. Did something just break somewhere along the line?
I jiggled the input a little and got a good signal with the monitor on, but still only got a weak (but clean) recording.
Help me!
Thanks
