Using mics in Soundtrack Pro
Hi there,
I’m trying to set up STP to record voice overs for a film project that I’m working on. I have a G5 2.0DP with an external analogue mixing board. I have the mic going to the board, and the output from the board going to the G5 analogue line-in. STP can’t find the signal (even though OSX registers the signal in System Prefs>Sound).
The only input choices I have in STP are “built-in audio”, and the instruction manual refers to an digital USB or Firewire audio interface when recording is mentioned.
Am I to believe that you can’t use the internal signal conversion in the G5, and that you must use an external A/D conversion box? If so, why is it that you can use the straight line in with FCP5’s voice over tool?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris -

What input have you asked STP to “see” as the input?

I can’t believe it’s not butter!

Hi David,
Thanks for your response. I actually found the source of the problem. It’s not really worth describing, but in STP you can’t monitor the signal without pressing record first.
Cheers,
Chris
