Question

I get the following console errors when recording a sound.. Any ideas what I’m doing wrong? The recordings work, except that the outputs are REALLY soft.

TIA

As requested, I am adding code:

I’ve seen these warnings before, what happens is you copied another older project? if so this is what i did, I simply created a new blank project with the newest version of Xcode, and then started copying the old files into it.

this seemed to clear out those errors.
