recording : very high-pitched (enregistrement : très aigu)

Hello all,

Config : Windows 7, sound card = ‘Realtech high definition’ up to date

Registration is very bad: high-pitched sound.
Thanks for your ideas.

(Config : Windows 7, carte son = ‘Realtech high definition’ à jour

L’enregistrement est très mauvais : son très aigu.
Merci de vos idées.)

Does it sound like this:

What are you recording? What is the show? Are you recording a USB microphone?

Thanks to answer.

The sound is + acute than that.

For instance, a song on winamp (computer), which is recorded.
It’s the same if I register on YouTube (in line).
(It is not possible to post an example I think).

I don’t register with a USB microphone.

Otherwise, I’m not 32 but 64 bits.

You can post a short sample on the forum. Stereo WAV is only 5 seconds. MP3 can be longer.

Scroll down from this message panel to where it says “Upload Attachment.”

Ok, I had not seen.

Here is a problem file :

To compare, the original song :

If this can help…

I finally found the solution of this problem :

  • in control panel, equipment and audio, sound, recording :

stereo mixing : must be peripheral by default (in features, put levels at 100 if desired) <-----
microphone : put communications peripheral by default (for Skype for instance).

This seems easy, but I spent much time to seek.
Hoping that will be able to help someone.

(jai enfin trouvé la solution à ce problème :

  • dans panneau de configuration, matériel et audio, son, enregistrement :

mixage stéréo : doit être périphérique par défaut (dans proprétés, mettre niveaux à 100 si l’on veut) <-----
microphone : mettre périphérique de communications par défaut (pour Skype par exemple).

Ca n’a l’air de rien, mais j’ai passé beaucoup de temps à chercher.
Espérant que cela pourra aider certains.)
