I have a Mac and I did all of the sound settings as you have instructed. Unfortunately, the “recipe” does not seem to be working for me. That was a very clear and helpful presentation. Input from: Built-in Audio: Line In (ie the Mic)ĭont forget to click the ‘Pass Thru’ Button in LineIn. Thanks to Ahmad Humeid’s blog post which was the inspiration for this screencast – here is a summation of the settings to make this all work. If that is the case then you just need to click the record button in GarageBand, and then begin your “show”. If you have all of the above settings correctly set, you should see the audio level indicators move when you speak into the microphone AND when people on your Skype call are talking.You may also want to adjust the volume level in Skype for the callers Be sure to turn on the (audio) Monitor in the Track Info area of GarageBand. You will record your microphone and the Skype Call on the Male Voice track. A Podcast Track, a Male Voice track, A Female Voice track and a Jingles track. Again, using GarageBand ’08, you will be presented with four new tracks.Depending on your version of GarageBand the wording can be different, but in GarageBand ’08, from the File Menu select New and choose Create New Podcast Episode. You are now ready to record in GarageBand.In the Ouput to field select “Soundflower (2ch)” and then make sure to click the Pass Thru button. In the Input from field select the microphone you are using.

The Input should be set to SoundFlower (2ch) Choose the audio output that you wish to hear the GarageBand output from, again, in our example we’re using the USB headset.

Open up the Garageband program and choose the Preferences (GarageBand>Preferences).

Choose “Soundflower (2ch)” as both the audio input and audio output.

Start by going into the System Preferences (Apple Menu>SystemPreferences…) Click on the Sound icon.
