I am testing recorded and played back with no effects. Then, open those up in something like Audacity and compare them visually and audibly. Open up the projects as a folder, and find the media file for your track. This is easy enough to check by simply recording a track in GB and then without changing anything, record the same thing in Logic.
Garageband vs logic sound quality driver#
The hardware and driver are exactly the same, so the raw track should be the same. However, it shouldn't be necessary to get a clean recording of a condenser mic through any interface in Logic. Do you just record and then play back with no effects and no changes in output monitor volume in the interface or DAW, and you hear these noises? What is the output level (dB) on the Stereo Out track in Logic? Can you put a (Utility FX menu) peak meter on the track and Stereo Out and tell us what those are? If you hear hissing in Logic, the question is where it's coming from. The current version of GarageBand is essentially a dumbed-down version of Logic, so no reason why you can't get exactly the same sound in both, though you have to do the import step to deconstruct what GarageBand has done. From what I can tell, it's something to do with the interfaces linking into logic. I've also tried recording in different locations, and it doesn't seem like this is background noise. I checked all the cables and it's not that. Tried into a focusrite ISA One and then an apogee or Focusrite scarlett solo, and straight into both interfacesĪpogee or focusrite into USB of macbook pro I tried using EQing and Noisegate to get rid of the hiss and rattle, but it's compromising the sound quality of vocals too much to be a workable solution.
Garageband vs logic sound quality how to#
There's no hissing noise or volume issues when I plug in a USB mic, only when I use the interface.Ĭome to find, with the exact same set-up, if I record in garage band these problems are all solved! I've loaded the tracks into logic x from garage band and they maintain the same sound quality as they have when I listen in garage band.Īny ideas why this is happening, or how to get the recording quality better in logic x? Is there a setting I need to look at? Going from garage band to logic is tedious, as I like to use multiple takes and have to set that up manually. Lastly, the recording is extremely quiet, even when I turn up my interface all the way, unless I use another external pre-amp. I also am finding that speakers rattle when certain instruments or my voice hit a specific frequency relatively loudly, but my level meter tells me it's not regular clipping, and I am using a limiter. It's up in the higher frequency range when I test it with EQ. I just upgraded to better equipment from a USB microphone and am having problems with a hissing sound when I record into logic.
