Hi
Trying to record vinyl from technics 1210's to Audacity via Pioneer DJM 400 connected to Tascam US200 by USB to iMac.
I am not getting any signal on Audacity Running version 2.0.3
On the menu's on the software it clearly says US-200 is selected so it does recognise this my sound card
I have also downloaded LIBMP3LAME.DYLIB and selected it in the library
Any help so frustrating
Andy

Re: No Signal
Close Audacity.
Apple (upper left) > System Preferences > Hardware > Sound > Input.
Is your device listed there? Does the blue dot sound meter jump when you play music? If not, then you are not presenting music to the Mac. Actually, better, if you can see your USB device in the list, you are not presenting sound to the USB device.
Do you get the green signal lights flashing on your US200? I'm guessing no.

Re: No Signal
Hi Kos
Many thanks for the reply
Yes under Hardware > Sound > Input my US 200 is selected.
No dots jump about tho when I play music. I am running monitor speakers RKR Rokit 5. These play music from my mac or turntable via the DJM 400 mixer and US 200 which is USB to the mac, but on the Tascam US 200 the controls on the front Level > Mon Mix > ETC don't seem to be working.
Also in the sound settings on the mac I cannot control the volume or mute etc the only way to control the volume from the monitor speakers is turning them from the rear of the speaker itself.
The only light on the US200 is a green USB light and that is it.
Please help
Andy
