JamKazam doesn't receive signal from any of my inputs

[Pasi]

You could have a software conflict, so firstly I recommend make a test recording with your Helix as your input, using Garageband, and no other software running (perhaps you have already tried this?). If that doesn't work, then you need to troublehoot your setup with the Helix.

The built-in mic, and the webcam mic, can be used for testing, but you don't want to use them in a session - the latency will probably be too high, and you will have to monitor using the headphone jack.

If it does work, then move on to using Jamkazam client, and no other software running. You should be able to create a test session and hear yourself playing; you should also be able to make a recording.

In my setup, I use an interface with it's own mixer. When I'm in Jamkazam, I mute all of my inputs' "monitor out" using the miser, so that Jamkazam is the only source of sound that I can hear. Basically you want JK to be in the driver's seat

Hello Zlartibartfast,

I've done many recordings with GarageBand using Helix. You say that you mute all inputs using mixer. Are you talking about JamKazam Power Mixer (Manage/Audio Settings/Pro-Audio Mixer)? Even in mixer I don't see any input coming.
I only tried using the microphones as inputs to see if I can get any input.

Recommend you review the existing thread "DAW into JamKazam?". It contains good information using aggregate setup similar to what you are trying to acheive. Don't forget about Mac basics and check your privacy settings in case you are not allowing something to passthru to the JK app. And, if you decide to config your router ports, i would suggest undo them until you figure out how to get the basic setup working first. All too often people make too many changes at once and it becomes more complicated when trying to solve a problem. It's much easier to walk back your settings, one step at a time.

Thanks,

That may help, even though I don't need to use Loopback as source to JamKazam. I could use Helix directly + webcam for chat. Loopback I've used successfully in online guitar lessons I'm taking through Skype. There I don't have any problems. I just wonder, if Loopback has some driver that takes over even though the sw is not running. I've sent a support request also to them. Let's see.
