Hallo
 
Ich habe das sonar x1 Le und möchte mit einem instrument zu erstellter Musik spielen,
das geht auch über ein Roland duo capture ex,
wie erhöhe ich den eingangspegel des instrumentes beim Sonar x1 Le ????
es funktioniert zwar aber viel zu leise
 
Wer kann da Helfen??

The interface may have a switch to select Line or Mic, the difference being the expected level. Sometimes, it's necessary to choose "Mic" even though it's not a microphone you have plugged in.
 
If your interface does not have that option, you'll have no choice but to place a preamp between the instrument and the interface. This is rarely necessary, though.
 
What instrument, specifically, are you trying to record? A synthesizer? A guitar?

I have the sonar x1 le and would like to play with an instrument of created music,
That goes also over a Roland duo capture ex,
How do i increase the input level of the instrument at sonar x1 le ????
It works much too quiet
 
Who can help?

Hello
 
i will in the sonar software/Mixer   the gain Level up
 

Grüße, und herzlich willkommen! Ich kann dein Deutsch lesen, aber leider muß ich auf Englisch antworten. Vor 40 Jahren konnte ich es fließend sprechen. Heute nicht. Also dann...
 
On your audio interface, you need to use Input 1 (INST (Hi-Z)) for your J Bass. You also need to set the switch on the back to Hi-Z (next to the Power button). And then, of course, you need to adjust your inputs SENS so it's almost as loud as you can get without clipping (leave yourself a little headroom). With a bass, especially a passive one, it's helpful to have a compressor pedal between the bass and the audio interface. I have a Markbass Compressore. It's good, but I wouldn't recommend it if you have a pedal board. It's draws a LOT of current and wouldn't play well with the pedal board power supplies I'm familiar with.
 
I also have a Fender J Bass. They have passive single coil pickups which provide a relatively low output (like when your output drops in half when you split the coils on a humbucker). Active pickups have much higher output, so you have more flexibility there.
 

 

 

Thank you verry mutch Maartian
ich habe nun noch ein zoom b3 davor geschaltet da sind einige Kompressoren drinnen,
ich wollte eigentlich wissen ob man im Sonar x1 le den gain Level für einen Kanalzug wie bei einem richtigen
Mischpult erhöhen kann?

Jawohl!
 
This is the control you can use to balance the levels between your tracks. Don't record too hot (too loud) or you will have trouble during mixing.
 

The gain control might help (up to 18 dB increase), or you can apply gain to the recorded clip after recording. Whether or not this is sufficient depends on the levels you have recorded. If they are at least -30 dB or so, it's quite possible you can use Process -> Gain to bring them up. If, however, that results in excessive noise, then you'll need to amplify the signal coming in.
 
(Ich hoffe, dass ich Ihre Frage verstehe. Ich habe seit Jahren nicht mehr Deutsch gesprochen, seit ich 1972 München verlassen habe. Jeez, I just know my German teacher would be cringing at that. Sorry, Fraü Schumacher.)

Du hast sie richtig verstanden.
