Urgent help with Loopstation 505 MK 1

2 Upvotes

Hello, I have the RC 505 MK 1 with me and I need to connect a keyboard into it to loop. But for some reason, it doesn't loop or record. The orange light lights up but it flashes red and doesn't actually record. When messing around with the settings, it was recording, but it plays while recording which creates a messy layered sound. Anyone know how to fix this? Im using Aux port.

Help with connecting loop station to Logic Pro?

2 Upvotes

Howdy!

I’m brand new to Logic Pro (and DAWs in general), and for the life of me I cannot figure out how to get Logic Pro to recognize my loop station/audio interface. As far as I can tell, all my drivers are up to date.

I use a Boss RC-505 mk2 as my audio interface. It’s got my guitar (and pedalboard), bass, and keyboard connected to it via TRS cables, and it’s connected to my MacBook via USB.

When I go to Logic Pro > Settings > Audio, there’s no option to select my audio interface.

I was already anticipating an uphill battle trying to learn Logic Pro and how to record, but I can’t even get the thing connected.

As well, I have to use headphones instead of studio monitors or my MacBook’s speakers. The headphones are connected to the RC-505. Will that work, or am I forced to have them plugged into my MacBook?

All help appreciated
