使用OS X通过(OS X)Mac上的界面录制乐器音频非常简单,并且与内置录音设备相比具有显着优势。它可用于将您的计算机连接到专业麦克风、贝司和电吉他。
设置它相当快速和容易。为了保持一致性,我将使用Scarlett Solo作为音频接口,但其中许多设置适用于不同的品牌和设备。
如果您拥有一台Mac电脑,那么您很幸运!大多数 USB 2.0 音频接口(包括Scarlett Solo)都是Class Compliant或Plug-n-play ,这意味着它们无需下载第三方驱动程序即可连接到Mac 。
通过音频接口(Audio Interface)录制声音(Sound)
让我们开始吧。
插入设备后,找到您的录音软件。在Mac上,内置的最基本的是GarageBand。启动后,导航到新项目(New Project )并选择您将要进行的录制类型。
然后, 保存(Save)您的新项目。(不要担心Tempo、Time Signature和Key设置,因为这些都可以在以后更改)。
在此之后,您将前往屏幕左上角的GarageBand选项卡,然后选择(GarageBand)Preferences以进入General Settings。
从那里您将转到Audio/MIDI选项卡。对于音频输入(Audio Input),将其设置为您的音频(Audio)接口 ( Scarlett Solo )。音频(Audio) 输出(Output )取决于您的配置,但对我来说,大多数时候这将设置为Scarlett Solo USB或Built-In Input。现在,我将其设置为内置输入。(Built-In Input.)
当弹出确认更改音频驱动程序的提示时,选择Yes。此过程不应超过 10-15 秒。
从这里您可以退出Audio/MIDI设置并导航到屏幕顶部的Track选项卡,然后创建一个(Track)New Track。
在那里,指定您正在使用的录音设备(麦克风或乐器)。然后点击Instrument Setup下拉菜单来选择您的单声道设置。
我录制吉他,所以我会选择最右边的乐器,然后我会选择Mono 2;如果您使用麦克风(microphone)录制,您将选择中间选项并使用Mono 1。
我还发现选中标记为我想在演奏和录音时听到我的乐器(I want to hear my instrument as I play and record)的框很有帮助。当您的设置符合您的喜好时,选择创建。(Create)
创建(Create)新曲目后,您就可以开始录制了!如果您有任何问题或意见,请随时提问!享受!
How to Record an Instrument Through an Audio Interface in Mac OS X
Recording instrument audio through an interface on а Mac using OS X is surprisingly eаsy and has significant аdvantages over а built-in recording device. It can be used to connect your computer to professional microphоnes, bass, and eleсtric guitars.
Setting it up is fairly quick and easy. For the sake of consistency, I will be using the Scarlett Solo as the audio interface, but many of these settings apply to different brands and devices.
If you own a Mac computer, you are in luck! Most USB 2.0 audio interfaces (including the Scarlett Solo) are Class Compliant or Plug-n-play, which means they can be connected to a Mac without a third-party driver download.
Record Sound through Audio Interface
Let’s get started.
After plugging in your device, find your way to your recording software. On a Mac, the most basic one that comes built-in is GarageBand. Once this has booted up, navigate to New Project and choose what kind of recording you will be doing.
Then, Save your new project. (Don’t worry about Tempo, Time Signature, and Key settings as these can all be changed later).
After this, you’re going to head over to the GarageBand tab on the top left of your screen and select Preferences to get to General Settings.
From there you will go to the Audio/MIDI tab. For Audio Input, set this to your Audio interface (Scarlett Solo). Audio Output depends on your configuration, but for me, most of the time this will be set to Scarlett Solo USB or Built-In Input. For now, I’m going to set it to Built-In Input.
When the prompt to confirm the change to the audio driver pops up, select Yes. This process shouldn’t take any longer than 10-15 seconds.
From here you can exit Audio/MIDI settings and navigate to the Track tab at the top of your screen and then create a New Track.
Once there, specify which recording device you’re using (microphone or instrument). Then hit the Instrument Setup drop-down menu to select your mono settings.
I record guitar, so I would select the instrument on the far right and I would select Mono 2; if you’re recording with a microphone you would select the middle option and would be using Mono 1.
I also find it helpful to check the box marked I want to hear my instrument as I play and record. Select Create when your settings are to your liking.
After you Create your new track, you are ready to record! If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to ask! Enjoy!
