Re: Grating crackle/static occasionally shows up in playback

Converting will degrade them unless it's to a lossless format like WAV or FLAC. FLAC is the format that I usually convert audio to when using Audacity. It is a nice compromise between file size and quality. I can make lossless files that are smaller in file size. And, unlike WAV, I can even add tag...

Re: Grating crackle/static occasionally shows up in playback

If using the (hw:0,0) device you can try different settings in "Audio to buffer" in Audacity's Recording Preferences (that setting affects playback too). Under "Latency," I see that "Audio to buffer" is currently set to 100 milliseconds, and Latency correction is set to -130 milliseconds. Make sure...

Re: Grating crackle/static occasionally shows up in playback

This week, I have gone back to using Audacity again. This morning, I had heard the crackling noise again while playing a little bit of a sound file that I was editing. I believe, in this instance, that this actually occurred when I had the Output Device set to the "HDA NVidia: ALC888 Analog (hw:0,0)...

Re: Grating crackle/static occasionally shows up in playback

So far, I haven't received any of that crackle noise since switching from OpenSuSE to Ubuntu Studio. I have experience a freeze once so far, and, whenever certain programs run, such as VLC, the output device would switch to "default," usually making Audacity playback run less smoothly. Where would ...

Code: Select all

lsusb -v  | tee lsusb-v.txt
which gives you a file and screen output.


Gale
Yes, it works quite well. Thanks.

Re: Grating crackle/static occasionally shows up in playback

Regarding the "lsusb" command, how do I write the information that shows up into a text file? The amount of information is so lengthy, that some of the earlier text disappears whenever I run this in a shell program. lsusb > lsusb.txt Gale I created the text file as you instructed. Without the "-v" ...

Re: Grating crackle/static occasionally shows up in playback

Type the following (the first character is l for "lady"): lsusb -v Or you can see a simple listing of hardware and driver details including audio with: inxi -Fx If you don't have inxi, type: sudo apt-get install inxi and follow the prompts. Regarding the "lsusb" command, how do I write the informat...

Re: Grating crackle/static occasionally shows up in playback

Your list does not contain a pulse device, so was that list from when you still had OpenSUSE? Ubuntu Studio uses PulseAudio, so see http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Linux_Issues#pulse . You have never stated clearly what the USB device is (make and model number). Are you getting crackle on that, t...

Re: Grating crackle/static occasionally shows up in playback

Now you have done it, we may as well see it, if you don't mind. If you press the Code button above your message, then paste the information, it will be formatted nicely inside a scrolling box. Gale I have attached a text file that has the full list of these devices. By the way, I have recently swit...

Re: Grating crackle/static occasionally shows up in playback

The Audio Device Info is very long. It looks like it lists as many as 15 different devices, with 15 as the default selection. Here is a small part of text that I saw. Please let me know if you want the entire text, which I pasted into a separate text file that I saved. Selected capture device: 15 - ...
