Re: Recording dialogue in the wilderness

I'm reading it again. As in one of the posts, you have to come up with a Profile or sample of noise by itself. If you're doing this with a wild, hostile track, there may not be anywhere in the show with the hum or buzz alone. Anything captured in the Profile will be active during the removal. Anothe...

Re: Recording dialogue in the wilderness

You can certainly make everything louder. Effect > Amplify [OK]. But as you suggest. That just brings everything up, and if you have really wild sound, it may not go up very far. All "Amplify" does is increase volume until something somewhere starts to overload. If you have a really wild t...

Re: Recording dialogue in the wilderness

Thanks guys....hrm. So everything affects everything basicaly? I can't remove one thing without removing another? You can retire to Bermuda if you come up with a good way to split a mixed track accurately into individual performers and instruments. It's a very popular request. I point to two exampl...

Re: Listening what I record with delay

The sound that goes into the computer and comes back out again, unless you have a really old, simple soundcard is going to be late. The three hardware examples we posted for Perfect Overdubbing/Sound-On-Sound all get the headphone signal from the device, not the computer. This reduces the delay to e...

Re: Recording dialogue in the wilderness

(e.g. insects versus birds versus plane overhead versus different human voices) I can save you a lot of work. They're going to turn out remarkably similar, or if not that, they're going to overlap so much that it doesn't make any difference. This is a single piano note. G down there on the left som...

Re: voice memo and audacity

Will these open up in iTunes? Have you tried? http://ipod.about.com/od/advanceditunesuse/ht/Converting-Aac-To-Mp3.htm If they don't you may have a problem with OS-X. You're four versions behind the Mac operating system. I'm currently going through the upgrade to OS-X 10.9.1. And then there's this: h...

Re: Recording dialogue in the wilderness

Quick note if you go that way, provide a sync point. You know that clapboard thing the movie people use? http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=&sku=725696&Q=&is=REG&A=details It's job is to make a noise so the sound people can hear it and provide a moving arm so the camer...

Re: Recording dialogue in the wilderness

You can't take out interference frequency by frequency like a shooting gallery. And no, Audacity doesn't have any real-time tools. I think your only choice is to get close to the microphone. http://kozco.com/tech/audacity/pix/lavalier2.jpg Mic each performer and connect to a field mixer and then on ...

Re: Blue Snowball High Pitched Humming

The Blue Snowball has a USB B on the back. That's the square one with one rounded edge, right? It's takes a printer cable. Or at least ours does.

Re: Mixer for 6 live mics?

The only reason I know about the PV6 is I installed several of them in modest applications and I own one. That's it behind the headphones. http://www.kozco.com/tech/audacity/pix/JMASoundShoot.jpg Two of the others mix a theater live audience sound into a presentation review recording and/or Send Ser...
