SL Looping, but no audio?

Post by sunbrother »

I'm excited to get looping because this looks like a great piece of software, but I can't get it to playback any of the loops I've recorded. I turned up the input monitoring and I can hear myself playing through that, and the software appears to be looping all that I played into it, but there's no output from the plugin.

I installed it by dragging the app into my app folder and the plugin into HD/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/ - everything is recognized by Logic and seems to be running smoothly except for the output.

As for the plugin, I've tried different routings- before any effects, after other effects, and on a separate bus, all without any luck. Is there a step of configuration that I've missed? Do I need to set it to communicate w the host in a different way? If someone could help, it'd be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Rob

Can you describe what host you are using? Logic, Ableton, Jack?

I'm can not get any audio through SL. I'm using Jack with a 2009 MacBook and want to use SL with my input jack for live audio looping from an external mic signal.
I set Jack to Aggregate Device after creating an AD following the instructions on the board, then restarted everything. I can hear the signal through the monitor and other devices such as audacity, but do not hear anything after recording a loop with SL.

Is there anything I have to activate within the SL interface? I played with the input/output dB sliders, but there was no change. All the dB listed run from - inf to 0 (is that normal?)

Thanks,

Jason

With JACK you need to connect the outputs of SL to your system outputs. In JackPilot use the Routings window. This post also describes that: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=181&p=699
