Re: Vocal not clear

How are you recording your voice? You need to give us a push. Which microphone? How is your sound equipment connected?

Cut a piece of the voice track and post it here.

Re: How to change audio (voice) pitch without distortion

I don't think I'd put a lot of money on the cartoon characters being pitch-shifted. Bart Simpson is famously voiced by Nancy Cartwright who does it cold in front of a microphone. That and pitch-shifting takes time. South Park barely makes it's satellite uplink time as it is without additional post p...

Re: Background Noises

As a general rule, you can't split apart performers, voices, instruments or sounds from a mixed show. Once everything is dumped together, it's pretty much stuck that way. If you play at it enough, you can sometimes record the commentary separate from the game sound, but that has to be carefully plan...

Re: Recording Drums as Midi

Acoustic drums are rough because you are in essence playing five different instruments covering the full range of human hearing and separated by space. The bass drum is down there, the high-hat is up here... etc. You can totally mic that with one microphone -- in a studio. If you have a room with ha...

Re: 50 Year Old Analog Audio Noise Removal Issue.

I personally didn't say anything about noise above 7KHz. I just suggested Noise Removal might not be the best at removing the particular hum you have and that I knew we had intentional hum removal tools around somewhere. Then I ducked. A note: You can't actually hear either 50Hz or 60Hz hum. They're...

Re: White Noise (static detecton)

I can give you that number. Very nearly zero. In the case of dynamic or moving coil microphones, it is zero since induction and inductive reactances do not generate noise in the classic sense. However vast fortunes have been made and lost in designing microphone amplifiers or MicPres. The raw microp...

Re: Remove audio from track

To get cancellation you have to flip one of them over Effect > Invert. Then you painfully shift the cancellation track little bit by little bit until it cancels. You can sometimes select a very little portion of the show, shift one track and watch the blue waves line up. Sometimes in complex shows y...

Re: Blue Snowball High Pitched Humming

Please be clear that it could still be something else. We are diagnosing problems from half-way around the earth and not seeing the same things you are, but this hub thing will probably be successful. I have done similar tricks at work.

Re: Blue Snowball High Pitched Humming

That looks like it should do it. I don't have one, but the specifications appear good. I don't know why you would need a 4 Ampere power supply, but I've been the subject of product advertising people before, so I understand..

Re: Why can't I align my audio file to the cursor?

The tools stop working if you're in Pause instead of Stop.
