No input signal to GarageBand on Mac book from Focusrite iTrack Solo

I get no input signal in Garage Band from my USB-device Focusrite iTrack Solo when i try to record a real instrument, my electric bass.

Signal is ok from bass to iTrack Solo, and both my mac and Garage Band detects Focusrite when i connect it via USB/USB-C adapter to the input on my Macbook Pro. But no signal to the computer, neither can i see signal in system settings, nor in GB-interface.

Any ideas?

MacBook Pro (13-inch, Late 2016, 4 TBT3), macOS High Sierra (10.13.4), Garage Band

Garage Band inputs not working Hello Just want to say first that I am very new to apple computers! (This is the first I have ever bought)I am using a 2017 iMac running MacOS Mojave 10.14 with Garage Band 10.3.1I cannot record my Guitar in GarageBand using my Focusrite interface or the internal iMac microphone. I can test that both are working using the sound section in the system settings. If i click on both the interface and internal mic i see input level fluctuate when I play my guitar.When I create a new track in garage band I can select both the Focusrite interface and the computers internal microphone, but when I play there is no input being detected by Garageband. The volume slider on the track header does not show any input and recording produces no input also.Any help anyone could provide would be awesome as I am super eager to get on making music with my new toy !Thanks

Unable to record on Garageband since upgrading to macOS Mojave Hi,I was recording successfully from my keyboard into Garageband on my Mac via a Focusrite Saffire 6 Interface when I stopped to upgrade to macOS Mojave. Now I cannot get an input signal on Garageband and can't record anymore.Having checked both System Preferences / Sound and Garageband's Preferences / Audio/Midi they both show the Saffire 6 as the chosen input and output device. System Preferences / Sound / Input shows an input level in Grey (not Blue, is this significant ?) when I play and the input signal shows on the Saffire 6 interface but this does not translate to an input signal on my chosen Garageband track. Pressing the red button to record as normal does not record anything.I have unplugged and re-connected the USB cable between the Saffire and my Mac and I can play back what is already recorded on Garageband fine through the interface headphones and can monitor the input signal through the headphones too. I just can't record anything on Garageband through the Saffire interface which otherwise seems to be working fine. The Mac is a new 21" model so there shouldn't be any problem there. Any suggestions on how to resolve this would be most welcome.Many thanks,Richard

Can't hear Roland JV1010's sounds in Garageband Using a Yamaha DGX-660 and Focusrite 4i4 to connect to my Macbook Pro. We are able to play the Yamaha keyboard sounds nicely, as well as Garageband's Software Instruments. Awesome! We just can't hear the Roland JV1010's sounds! Right now, we have the Roland connected to the Focusrite (from the Roland's L Mono output to the instrument input on the front of the Focusrite). Do I need a midi cable? If so, do we run it from the output of the sound module to the Focusrite's midi in? Do I need a certain setting in Garageband to hear these sounds? How do we set the midi settings in Garageband?
