Title: Reel To Reel on MAC ver 13.1.6 PRO
Post by: Bnanewbie on May 16, 2024, 09:16:23 PM
Hey Y'all - I use this app all the time to digitally convert old records and auto dump them into my iTunes Library. I just acquired an old reel to reel player. It works and plays very well, but I cannot figure out how to connect it to my MAC and have Vinyl Studio see it as input. I have it connected via rca cables out on one end an a line input line that is connected to the MAC. 

I also am seeing I am on version 13.1.6 and think I am a bit behind, but don't see any options from within the program of downloading/installing updates.

Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!

Scott

Hi,

So are you getting no signal?  Did you select the correct Input Device in VinylStudio's Check Level dialog?

Also, are you sure your Mac *has* a line in socket?  Newer Macs don't (as of a few years ago, now).

As for your other question, did you purchase from the App Store?  That is currently one version behind.  We will be remedying that shortly.

I ended up connecting it to the line in on the vinyl record player I use VinylStudio with so I think I am good now. The original line in that I was using was a Mac mini add on thing and I guess the MAC wasn't seeing it....all is good now....I also did buy the Pro version on App Store.   I soooo appreciate you getting back with me so quick. Thanks bunches.
