Connecting to USB-C as input sound source w/mini-jack & USB-C adapter
I am trying to connect an external sound source to my MacBook M1 so it can used with GarageBand.
Guitar amp...
> headphone output
> mini-jack cable
> USB-C adapter
> MacBook USB-C input
> System Settings or GarageBand input sound source
> Record to a track in GarageBand
I don't see a sound input source for the USB-C. System Settings and GarageBand only show the internal mic and a set of bluetooth headphones that I regularly use.
How do I select any incoming sound source through the USB-C? Or won't the mini-jack cable and USB-C adapter idea work in this scenario? If not, what is the correct way to connect the amp using its headphone output using a mini-jack? It has to convert using an adapter, right? Or does Apple not allow this?
I thought that what I was doing would work, but alas...
Thanks in advance :)
