I may have a piece of this. If your sound file or clip plays slowly, that usually means it was recorded fast, or the digital sample rate was higher than the system was expecting. Recording computer sound playback sends the work through several unusual steps and an error in any of them can cause prob...

The sound card will only have issues if you have to go into and out of the computer. Pick or make a short demo of voices and music. Send a copy through the process and cut that against a clean version. See if you can tell the difference—of if there is a difference, if it bothers you. Make sure you a...

That won't work with conventional sampling because high pitch sounds will slide out of range. It might work with a higher sampling rate such as 96000 instead of 44100. The sampling rate needs to be at least twice the highest sound frequency. So figure out what the highest pitch sound is going to be ...

I know the mixer is not the issue. You know the mixer analog parts are OK. You should be able to see the mixer in the Windows audio panels.

I think you got lucky that the system failed at that exact instant. Do you have to disconnect the battery or emergency start the machine very often? Post back if you have more problems. The audio connection on the side of the machine, unless it says so in the instructions is mono, not stereo and it ...

I mastered the last post for audiobook submission and it failed for an odd reason. It's too good. Screen Shot 2020-06-21 at 16.09.32.png Where did you get the silence to put between the words or sentences? In general you shouldn't use Generate > Silence. That produces the Blackness of Space silence ...

probably won’t even use the desk or have the computer in there Home performers always fail noise. It's practically a law. I know people that are trying to make echoey, kitcheny, bathroomy voice "normal," but until they do, a quiet, clear voice is good. The moving pad trick is interesting ...
