Recorded bass guitar volume too low

Bass beginner using GarageBand to record tracks to songs sent to me by others. The recording level is far too low, even though I have adjusted the slider and my input device. Any tips? Bass: Yamaha 100 Series; Input: Apogee Jam; GB version 10.3.5.

Hello jleisek,


Thanks for using Apple Support Communities! It looks like you need some help with GarageBand, and we'll be happy to do what we can to help.


If you're using macOS Mojave, take a look at this article: If you can't record audio after installing macOS Mojave or later


Otherwise, see if these two articles can help:

GarageBand for Mac: Use the bass amp controls

GarageBand for Mac: Use the bass amp effects


From the GarageBand Help guide: Before recording audio


If you need additional assistance, we'd suggest contacting Apple Support for GarageBand.

Get Support > Select Music, Apps & Services > Mac apps > GarageBand


Take care!
