Re: What is causing these big dips?

everything plugged into UPS. You can do really well with a good UPS, and by good, I mean your edit room always runs from the batteries and the house keeps the battery charged. If the house power goes off, there is zero fuss and if the emergency light and siren didn't activate, you would never know ...

Re: What is causing these big dips?

Yes,well. Don't get all excited yet. When you unplug the turntable, the preamp connection becomes an efficient antenna. If you had/have a radiation problem, those are the exact conditions to make it worse. Unplug the turntable from wall power and plug the sound connections back in to the preamp. Wha...

Re: Top 5 tips for enhancing a cassette demo?

Do you know if Dolby B, Dolby C or DBX were used? You can do really well with cassettes if you used Metal or CRO2 tapes, Noise Reduction and were careful with your levels. And played the tapes back with the player set to the right tape type and noise reduction. If not, there may not be any good filt...

MBP 2009.
So yours are cousins to mine. Are you plugged into the connection with thin circle and two black arrows? 15" or 17"? The 13" only had one connection and you had to manage it in System Preferences.

Re: Opening MPEG-TS files - audio is offset in timeline

You didn't mention the special FFMpeg software add-on. Do you have the latest one compatible with Audacity 2.1.3? Native Audacity will only open a relatively small list of files, but if you install FFMpeg, the list grows a lot. Audacity may have trouble knowing what a Transport Stream is, but is gue...

Re: What is causing these big dips?

I wouldn't mind knowing the Mac version. It could be the "One Size Fitz All" connection trying to figure out whether or not to switch on Microphone Battery.

Re: What is causing these big dips?

And something you can do independent of the hardware, do all of those disturbances look the same? Do they all go down first and then up? Are some of them backwards? Do they alternate?

Re: Issues with playing back audio during editing

Machine Latency is the time your sound takes to get into the machine from your microphone and then come back out again. It's not the difference between pressing play and having the sound come out...and it doesn't change with key press event as your does. Thousands of years ago I used to have tricks ...
