Learning something new can be both frustrating and satisfying at the same time. |
So what did I get to work?
- New condenser microphone feeding to main - check
- New dynamic microphone feeding to main - check
- ZOOM X4N - Recording from either microphone and a direct line back in to listen to recordings as well. -check
- iPad2 - Line into board for playing from Garage Band or other audio apps.- check
- - *Note - Have not tested for recording into iPad2 - yet.
- Studio PC - Direct line in and back
- - USB Webcam - Check
- - Skype Session - Check
- - Hangout - Check
- - AVS4YOU - recorder - works but buzzing noise (60Mhz issue with monitor) - help!
What is driving crazy and not working!
Laptop - Direct line in and back
- Line back into the board is working fine - check
- USB Webcam - Cannot get to work without using webcam speaker instead of board mic.
- This renders any video programs useless until figured out.
- AVS4YOU - Cannot get input to work correctly to record
I have played with the Dell application that recognizes the input into the microphone jack and I have played with the sound recorder settings as well making sure the default line in is microphone/headphones. I can get it to input through the board mikes but there is a buzzing noise being caused by my secondary monitor being plugged in - HELP! The bigger issue is I can't figure out how to get the webcam to have input from the board mikes like on the Studio PC. I am using the same settings but not getting the same results. I suspect this studio microphone application from Dell is the culprit but I don't know how to disable it and just rely on Windows 7 to control everything. That is my main pain at the moment.
If anybody has suggestions about how I can resolve this please feel free to email me at headhardhat@gmail.com. I would greatly appreciate it.
If not I am going to figure this out one way or another. Ah the wonders of technology when learning something new.
