Comments on: My New Tascam US-122 for GarageBand http://www.upthetree.com/2004/01/21/my-new-tascam-us-122-for-garageband/ The first podcast from New York City and one of the first Indie Music Podcasts to hit the scene - Tracks Up the Tree has been reviewed "Out of all the music podcasts I've listened to, this is the first one that has played music that I universally liked" by the New Podcast Review. Adopting the unique stance of only playing music from artists websites who make their tracks available online, Tracks Up the Tree is podcast semi-live from Brooklyn NY and delivers the best indie music to be found on the internet.

I purchased the same one as it seems to be the best for the money. I plan to use mine with acoustic and vocals, perhaps strings too. I bought a beautiful condenser B1 mic from Studio Projects to go along. An excellent German-esc mic for just $79! http://www.studioprojects.net/ This should give me a very near to pro sound if I could only get Garageband to recognize the bloody thing. Tascam is reading the signal (green light comes on). Mac is reading Tascam…but when I go to record a vocal track nothing is coming through. I’m confused; do I need to select the Tascam for audio “out” as well as “in” on the Audio Midi Setup and in the Garageband preferences? In the preference I can see that 1 Midi device is detected (my keyboard) but there again no response when pressing the keys. Any advice on this one would be great. Further, is it imperative to monitor through the Tascam and is this accomplished by simply plugging a headset into it? Thanks in advance to all, Daniel Indeed thanks for your journal entry on the Tascam US122. I purchased the same one as it seems to be the best for the money.

I've had the software for a few weeks, and finally got around to buying the Tascam last night (as well as a used SM57, and a MIDI cable for the Yamaha keyboard I already own). I was so anxious to get recording that I completely forgot about changing the input in GB Preferences. Your entry saved me! Keep posting with any tips you find- it sounds like we're in the same boat (lifelong love of audio and music, particularly folk/singer/songwriter, enjoy acoustic guitar playing, do a bit of singing, etc). What kind of helpful information does the "Dummies" book offer that might apply specifically to the Tascam/GarageBand setup? Is it worth buying? Thanks and keep it up. -Jed Hey thanks for all the posts about your GarageBand experiences.
