Re: Audio file suddenly sounds like I got a squeaky toy...

So to recap, at 44100, the system appears to be digitizing your voice wrong giving you the clarinet beeps. At 48000 and higher, your system can't keep up giving you gritty sound from tiny holes in the audio. The 48kHz is clarinet-free. That particular 48kHz recording has crackles in places, but it'...

Re: I can't manually record harmonies without them not being

Re: Audio file suddenly sounds like I got a squeaky toy...
