Re: Issue with a hiss/whine in the background of some recordings

they're wireless Missed one. Nobody's interested in changing headphone batteries every fifteen minutes, so there is a strong incentive to sacrifice sound quality for battery life. One of the reasons digital systems are so efficient is they're digital. They spend time in ones and zeros with no time ...

Re: Issue with a hiss/whine in the background of some recordings

Maybe it's not there at all. It sounds perfect to me and it easily passes ACX Check. I think you're analyzing the quality of your headphones which now appear to be the weak link in this process. I was using bluetooth headphones with my phone Wireless headphones primary quality is that they're wirel...

Re: Yamaha DM2000 to PC

Anything in Yamaha Community forums? Forums work by connecting people with common problems and experiences. I'm guessing 0.00 people have your mixer board and interconnect history. We can wait and see who posts back. You're right out of my world. This is one reason why your post waited a little long...

Re: Issue with a hiss/whine in the background of some recordings

If you're not done obsessing yet, I found a way to use Noise Gate without doing too much damage. You have to download and install it. https://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Nyquist_Effect_Plug-ins#Noise_Gate Noise Gate suppresses sound lower volume than a setting. This message thread describes how I did...

Re: Issue with a hiss/whine in the background of some recordings

You need to have the volume cranked and earbuds to even halfway notice it, Diving for Noise doesn't count. Set the playback volume for comfortable voice listening, roll the performance back to the noise and don't touch anything . Still hear it? Does the work pass ACX Check with a noise -65dB or qui...

Re: How to view all tracks at once

View > Track Size > Fit To Height?

There's 16 tracks.

Re: When recording I get loud hiss noise

I have mac air 2014 and it runs the latest macos. Catalina? 10.15? Add one problem. Audacity 2.3.2 version is 64-bit, so it does work under Catalina, but it may not accept sound from an external microphone. We're tracking this down. We do need a couple of more answers. What is the job? What's the m...
