[QUOTE="Crocodile Logic, post: 1303246, member: 216613"] Hi, Firstly I am not exactly superb when it comes to technical issues ! I am looking to connect my electric guitar to my Macbook with a view to record on Garageband but am not seeming to have any joy. I have watched countless videos on YouTube and have the required 1/4" to 1/8" converter as stated. The problem starts when I have seen people plugging into an extra input by the side of the headphones plug. I only have the plug for headphones and no seperate input. I have connected my guitar into the headphones and Garageband will pick up some sound through it but its intermittent and very bad (not recognisable as playing guitar). I have changed all of the input - output settings as mentioned, altered volumes etc but am still not having any joy. Do I need any further software ? or just please where am I going wrong? Any help (in simple terms) would be hugely appreciated ! :'( [/QUOTE]
