DP can't see line in - RESOLVED
I'm using a MacBook and DP5.12. I can use the Mac's line out, but DP won't let me use the MacBook's line in. It doesn't appear as an option in the audio bundles window. This isn't a hardware problem, as GarageBand works perfectly using the line in. Any thoughts?

Did you try to create a new input bundle?danielhuw wrote:It doesn't appear as an option in the audio bundles window.
If GB is working, then it's probably not an Audio-MIDI settings issue. Just the same, check Audio-MIDI settings to make sure that the default input is active.danielhuw wrote: This isn't a hardware problem, as GarageBand works perfectly using the line in. Any thoughts?
As a precaution look under System Preferences> Hardware> Sound to make sure that the default input is set there as well.
Back to DP, make sure you have your audio track on "input". There will be a track column with a gray speaker icon. Click on it to activate it and it will turn blue.
Just a few guesses...

Remember In DP's hardware setup to shift-click on both Built-in Input and Built-In Output at the same time, otherwise you only get one or the other

When you go to OS X's System Preferences/Sound, do you see the Line In and Digital In on the input tab's list? I can't imagine why you would not be getting them properly in DP. Perhaps you need to install the latest drivers. For that matter, you may need to install the latest version of DP: 5.13. Most people found 5.12 to be quite buggy.

This has come up a few times before. I guess that while DP recognises drivers for interfaces that have both ins and outs, it sees the built-ins as separate components. Shift-clicking allows you to access more than one interface at the same time as well, as in my Mbox2 and Traveler.

What happened Dan? There are certain email domains that spammers were using to validate memberships before posting and I had to ban some of them. You probably tried to change your email address to one of the banned domains.ladyaylesford wrote:BTW... I'm the original poster.
