    Hi. I need some help on FCP integrating with the Tascam US-122L.

    I bought the Tascam recently to use as an audio recording input for my MAC. I am hoping to record the voiceover directly within FCP using its voiceover tool.

    However, when I set my audio input to US-122L(within the FCP voiceover tool), there is a error message that says it is either disconnected or conflicting with the video output. I checked my connections and they are fine. I disabled the video output but the problem is still there.

    Has anyone tried to use them together and know of a solution to this problem? Also, are there any USB mics that will enable me to record within FCP itself?

    It may have a conflict with your Mac audio input. Have a look in the Preferences Panel> Audio Input.
    I’ve recorded voiceover just with a USB microphone. To record a good voiceover depends more of the place (noise, echo..) than of the microphone.

    Any USB mics will work. We have a Blue Snowball and have used it successfully for VO’s on multiple projects.

    Hi There,
    I recently purchased a Tascam US-122L for voice overs in Final Cut Express HD. I have the same error message, and after quit a bit of trying to fix it, I am stuck.

    Were you ever able to resolve this issue?

    Thanks,

    Bjug
