I apologise if this is in the wrong forum but it seemed the best place to put it.
I'm trying to record my guitar directly into Garageband or Audacity using my mac, it's running Tiger 10.4.8.
Here's my setup, my electric guitar is connected to my amp and my amp is connected to an external sound card through the line in port which is then connected to the mac via usb.
I have set everything up as per different peoples instructions and i can record in Garageband, the problem is that there is a massive amount of excess noise, it's a like a massive roar when you try to record.
If i turn the input volume down really low it's not so bad but then you can't hear the guitar properly, if i turn it up you can hear the guitar but the roar makes it unrecordable.
What should i do?
