If you read this thread, you'll also see that some insist you need a powered USB hub since the new Macs don't give as much juice through the USB as other machines. Tascam claimed they were going to release a 64-bit driver by the end of January, but I'm not holding my breath. I can use mine, but I'm certain I can do better with another interface (I just can't afford to replace it right now). for a mic plugged in, is waaaay too low.Īt this point the Tascam does not seem to be a good match for the Mac.
I don't know if it's the fault of the driver or what, but the input volume, esp. turn the Input dials on the Tascam up high. Make sure Monitor is set to On or On with Feedback Protection. Make sure you choose whichever one has the guitar plugged into it. You should be able to choose US-122L Mono 1 (or Mono 2) as the input for your real instrument. choose the US-122 as input and output in the System Preferences/Sound settings plug in the interface with GarageBand closed all the way.
I've had the most luck getting the thing up and running this way: You may have tried this, but it caused me some confusion: The Input/Computer dial should be turned all the way to computer to hear what the Mac is putting out. The only place that it shows up is in system profiler, under the USB hub it is connected to, which i guess is promising. The USB light flickers on for a second but does NOT say lit up. Just to clarify, Tascam does not appear in system prefs, Logic or Garageband.
Don't know what else to try, has anyone got any suggestions? Have tried using a Belkin powered USB hub, still no response, Have tried with the seemingly updated driver on the Tascam website, and with the driver that came on the CD-rom with the device, and all possible combinations of driver/hub, everytime removing all tascam documentation and applications from the machine before re-installing. When I connect the USB the lights flash on momentarily, but then all go out, as other people have reported with the 'l' version, but the phantom power light still comes on, so there is power. I have one of the new Tascam US-122mkII interfaces, and I cannot get any response out of it.
