Badly distorted audio CD

Windows 7 pro with HP Comaq 6200 giving badly distorted playback music CD, DVD and Youtube are very good.  Nothing does withdraw as bad.

Is this by chance a Warner Bros. disc? A bunch of them (and associated WB companies) were protected against copying and are unplayable on PC over XP - it are supposed to be some tips which work around it, but I was not able to make an any of them work on W7.

The only other possibility is that you have "improvements" on your audio in WMP (right-click in the space in the pane 'Now Playing' to see improvements if one is on - disable)

    Are you sure that the Audio configuration utility and noon has a frequency of supported by the input for the recording device?  If you mismatch the frequency, the distortion is common.

    Also if you use omnidirectional audio input devices keyboard sounds snap at the start of the heater vents outside can often enter into the record.    Perhaps an input device more focused is needed as the limits of entry where comes from.

  • The audio volume with Windows XP Pro. Result of the SP3 distorted audio recorder?

    Hello.

    Is it me or don't drop result audio volume of my WAV in a Windows XP Pro update. SP3 sound recorder? Is this a bug in this program or something else?

    Also, does anyone know a good free audio program that will make lots more low audio volume in a bunch old WAV files? One is a pain in the abdomen end-to-end. :(

    Thank you in advance. :) Ant @ Ant links fed quality (http://aqfl.net) and The Ant Farm (http://antfarm.ma.cx).

    Audacity will do what you want - a good. Its freeware and is a full blown audio editor. You need to normalize your track and to use a negative value to reduce the volume.

    http://Audacity.sourceforge.NET/

    One thing though: If your wav file already has a built-in distortion (that is to say "clipping" - when some parts of the song go above 0 dbl and so distort) nothing you do will get rid of the break of the said.

    You can see this by looking at the waveform track in Audacity. Is there is no flat areas where there should be highs, and they are above 0dbl then your track is cut off and there is a high risk of distortion. Is there is no flat areas (only the peaks) then your track should be ok (as long as they are not above 0dbl) and you can 'normalize' it.

    Try Googling "normalize batch file" (or similar), you can find what you want.

    See you soon,.

  • XPS 13 9350 - USB DAC - severely distorted Audio

    Hi all

    I'm playing a DAC USB files DXD (352.8 kHz FLAC) and I'm getting intermittent severe distortions which, to me, looks like a problem of USB transmission caused by the DPC latency. My configuration is:

    -Earn 10 Pro
    -jRiver MC21
    -Mojo chord connected via USB using rope ASIO driver 1.05
    -Alternatively AudioQuest Dragonfly 2 (downsampling to 88.2 kHz samplerate)

    I get distortion with the two DACS, which suggests a problem with the XPS 13 HW or SW. I disabled "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" for USB3 Intel eXtensible Host Controller and USB (xHCI) root hub, but that has not solved the problem.

    Power management is set to high performance, under Advanced settings, I put USB selective suspend setting to disabled.

    Check for latency DPC and latency LUNS do show any question and a list of the PC as being capable of streaming audio in real time.

    The problem disappears if I chose in jRiver direct sound driver. It occurs the same if I chose the ASIO, the WASAPI and core drivers streaming.

    The problem does not occur on a HP zbook 15u.

    Someone else has a similar problem and no matter who solved?

    I don't know if you've ever thought about it or went nuts perhaps, but I had the same problem and have found a workaround. I have a XPS15 9550 and had the same problem with the Mojo. I bypassed by disabling C-States (the processor sleep state) in the BIOS. This will reduce the battery life to a certain extent, but now the DAC works without a hitch.

  • distortion audio dv5-1122eg

    Hello

    In recent months, I'm stalking of audio distortions on my Pavilion dv5-1122eg laptop.

    P/N: NE679EA #ABD

    The notebook was pre-installed with Windows Vista Edition Home Premium x 86, but changed to a new installation of Windows 7 Professional x 64 2010 new year.

    When I hear a music file or an internet radio, I sometimes get these audio distortions.

    Not always, but for example after 20 minutes, I get then one or two ' audio scratches "then maybe again normal play 10 minutes and then again a few scratches. A 'scratch' takes maybe 1/10th of a second.

    In my opinion, the distortion of the sound is produced in this way, the IDT sound card gets a broken audiostream (not more new entrants sound samples) and try to reread the last audio samples of its input buffer. Its sounds like you have a scratch on a vinyl record.

    After reading a few posts from this forum, I started to study more, on this issue, using the tool 'DPC latency checker.

    By turning off all devices in the Device Manager I found out that the Atheros AR5009 WiFi card and JMicron JMB38x card there reader producing latencies of 2ms up to 10 ms.

    Frankly the audio distortion seems not to be produced by WiFi or the card reader.

    Now, the best thing! During sound distortions, I always saw DPC latency greater than 100 ms, but I couldn't really identify which device produced these huge CPD points. (Reminding me only that the "scratch" sound distortion make almost the same amount of time.)

    So I goggled of a tool to consult more these DPC latency. So, I gave the "Windows Performance Toolkit" from the Windows 7 SDK a try.

    After reviewing the data produced from the xperf.exe in the "Windows performance monitor" I chose the CPD huge spikes and opened the Table summary of them.

    In addition, it seems that the scsiport.sys & storport.sys produce this huge spikes!

    After all it would be a problem with the SATA controller, since the apears to DVD & HD player a list of SCSI in Device Manager. I also use the "AMD AHCI Compatible RAID controller driver" of the Support & drivers.

    I also use v5.4.3.2 Virtual Clone Drive to read some ISO files, but I uninstalled them for a month (but there is always the VClone.sys in C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\).

    So before making a little further I ask if there is a known problem with SCSI or SATA on Windows 7 x 64?

    My next steps would be to others:

    Delete all other things in Virtual Clone Drive (e.g. VClone.sys) and perhaps restore the scsiport.sys with my DVD of Windows 7 Windows Repair Console.

    Edit:

    Today, I used another tool that could be found in C:\Windows\System32\. It's called "Verifier" (simply type in Start-> auditor + Enter).

    I leave then run it on all the drivers on my system, that were not of Microsoft.

    It seems that my current drivers are all stable rock. I don't have no BSOD when running Driver Verifier.

    But I discovered that my Avira AntiVir where also the use also 2 drivers (avgntflt.sys & avipbb.sys). These are not normally listed in Device Manager.

    As always on Sunday at 11:00 my AntiVir began a search of virus. In the background, I also ran the DPC latency checker, and there he goes...

    While AntiVir where looking for the virus latency Checker showed me the upper tips of 400ms!

    Now that was also remind me that AntiVir has also a 'Guard' still active scanner.

    So I simply uninstalled the program Avira AntiVir and tested more away while listening to music files if distortions where still there. Well, it seems that they have decreased a lot, but there are still a few witch random sound distortions are much shorter!

    It seems that while Avira AntiVir as an x 86 application can run properly on a x 64 OS, drivers 'scan' provided by Avira are somewhat foires for it.

    So I recommend to all those who have sound distortions on a Windows x 64 operating system check by installing antivirus program!

    I now use Microsoft Security Essentials, which is an application of true x 64 for the moment.

    Yet there is no complete solution, I consider more on this subject.

    Hello

    I found the solution by myself!

    Random DPC latency tips (~ 100 ms) disappeared after I returned from the ' AMD AHCI Compatible RAID Controller Driver ' originally from Microsoft "Standard AHCI 1.0 Compatible SATA Controller'' pilot!

    Follow these steps:

    1. Press the Windows key, the 'device manager' type and select Device Manager.
    2. In Device Manager, look for AMD AHCI Compatible RAID Controller Driver and select it.
    3. Right-click on it and choose Uninstall. Response message with Yes and restart the computer.
    4. After Windows has restarted, it should recognize your hard drive and ask another reboot.

    In the device manager should now be a 'Standard AHCI 1.0 Compatible SATA Controller"under"IDE ATA/ATAPI Controller. With this driver, everything must be executed very well!

    No more huge DPC spikes Besides these product the WiFi card.

    And finally no more don't sound distortion !

    Other information (not required for the solution):

    Since the notebook dv5-1122eg is based on the platform of "Puma" to AMD (Griffin CPU + RS780M + SB700) I tried to install the new drivers from the http://game.amd.com site.

    AMD is making it very difficult to find the AHCI driver, and it seems that they raise their site with a new design where you even can not find the "Drivers of AMD Southbridge" package more!

    I tried the Catalyst 10.6 "AHCI Driver" because it is illogical to use a RAID driver on a notebook where you can not even put an extra hard drive in it!

    After I downloaded the file, I have to extract the contents to the folder by default, but abandoned then the ATI Installation Manager.

    The Installation Manager has not recognized the SB700 southbridge AHCI controller! So I have to do it manually through the Device Manager, select the controller AHCI and update the device driver by choosing a custom location (the already extracted files).

    The new driver is presented as "AMD SATA Controller", is bugs (DPC latency) and S.M.A.R.T. readings also work.

    To enable the NCQ feature, go to the branch of the registry:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\services\amdsbs\Settings\CAM\

    and set the "NCQEnableDiskIDBits" value to 00000001.

  • HP 15: Audio distorted after upgrade to Windows 10 Anniversary Edition

    @Bill_F

    After the upgrade to the anniversary edition the first thing I recommend is to update your drivers and software via Windows Update and HP Support Assistant.

    For some specific models of HP, there may be difficulties with audio destortion after update of the anniversary. Please see the following support document to see if your model in the series is in the list and the instructions to follow.

  • How to fix audio problems with some codecs only?

    Dell Optiplex 7010 bought in January, Windows 7 SP1 with all updates.

    Sometimes during the month, I started to notice that some videos audio was very low and others had very distorted audio. This occurs when streaming video during playback of downloaded files and YouTube etc. A few videos where the sound was fine when I downloaded them are now distorted.

    Other records and videos are fine, normal levels, no change by when I downloaded them.

    The problem is not specific to any video site, player or plug-in. I can confirm by playing the same thing on other devices that the problem is not in the stream or file. So it seems that this must depend on which codec is used. This theory is supported by videos from the same source, generally having the same problem, or no problem.

    I updated the Dell RealTek audio drivers, uninstalled them and used the generic Microsoft drivers, installed the RealTek drivers.

    Audio troubleshooting of Windows detects no problem.

    Disable sound effects has no effect.

    Any suggestions on what else to try?

    I guess I should install a 1394 PC card, plug my PreSonus audio interface and see if that has the same problem.

    Here are some examples:

    • normal: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CvNGpdPdQCk
    • Audio clean but the level is about 10% of what it should be: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gX3jxkozqd8
    • level normal but distorted and voice is unintelligible: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eNPeOnsxICw

    Never mind. The problem is in my hearing.

    Hi, Michaela,.

    I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing.

    What is the brand and model of the computer?

    This problem may be caused due to bad/corrupt audio driver. A damaged, obsolete or incompatible driver can disrupt communication between the PC and the sound card.

    Method 1:

    Configure audio settings by following these steps:

    Right-click on the Volume icon in the Notification area. Choose devices to record or playback devices. In this window that appears with the right button on the devices listed as well as on a box empty to show more devices (devices disabled, etc.) and see the options available for configuring your sound.

    Method 2:

    Follow the steps in the Microsoft KB article:

    No sound in Windows

  • Deamplifies Audio multitrack mode? Solution?

    I am running hearing CS6 on my iMac 27 "3.4 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7 with 16 GB of RAM, again with OS X 10.8.2 Mountain Lion. When I open the files in multitrack mode, they lose 2 or decibels in volume, and while this is not much, I'm afraid that increase the gain will be to distort rather than solve the problem. Why is this happening? Can it be prevented? Increase the gain in this case will distort audio or would I just ' put it back to normal?

    I am new to this program, sorry if I'm coming off as a novice. I am train to merge and recut two audio files that were originally a single file. The original is nowhere to be found. For my final result, I need to edit the source files, not to create new files. I still need to meet up with two files. Unfortunately, the change of the source files is difficult because I can't apply the same fade-chained (on a cosine curve) without them mashed together in multitrack mode. In single track mode, the curves are available in linear mode because it seems that I can't change the default value. The Cup at the end and at the beginning of the two files respectively is not completely clean, but the transition works well. The volume is low, however, and I can't apply the crossfade between source files. What can I do? The files must overlap a little, but the cut end should be relatively in the same place, as he was always listening to it. I need to be able to have the set of files one after the other in full transparency, which actually watch as I still have the original files 'two' with one cup transparent, they appear uneditied. They must resist a review of even the best audio engineers. Since I am morphing the two files to edit, the best result, I came up with this day extends the cutting of the first file very slightly and reduced the cut of the second file as well (it is acceptable), but the merger requires a new haircut after the fades chained with all changes recorded in the source files to the same exact volume levels. It's pretty important. If I could get to the less solved the problem of volume, I think that I would be good. Please help, I'll try to do a better job explaining if anyone has questions. My email user name is "smkralik" for gmail.com if you feel more comfortable emailing me. (Sorry, but I think that it automatically detects emails and bans if they are formatted with a sign @).

    If you import files into multitrack hearing discovered in a 32-bit session, then it is not really important - you will not be able to override whatever it is, whatever you do. It is because it is running in Floating Point mode, and it will take care of issues scale completely. The explanation of this is quite long and complicated - basically, if you just have to assume that it is a kind of black magic, and this is just works... So even if you increase the signals so that your final mix looks like a clump of green, it can be restored to normal just by using the effect of "Normalizing" waveform.

    Strictly speaking, what happens is that when you open a file in multitrack view, everything happening it is him, it is that it is played by a good player and it is the result of reading this who you listen to, and who appears to be lower in volume - mainly because it's! It is actually 3 dB lower and all that you would have to is to increase the fader master of 3 dB in the mixer, and you'd be back to where you started anyway.

  • Audio on the legend of reversal.

    Hello

    I use the legend of reversal on several places in my project. I recorded a speaker that I want to play when the legend is displayed. I have no trouble setting this up, it works very well. The problem is that I noticed that the size of the project was so larger that we shouldn't. I looked through the library and I saw my audio files in .wav format, I have them recorded in .mp3. So, there are two versions of the audio in my library, so the .wav and the .mp3.

    I tried to do it all over again to make sure I used the .mp3, but it always adds the .wav which is about 2-3 MB in size.

    Anyway to get around this problem?

    Thanks in advance.

    Kind regards

    Patrik

    Just leave them as WAV.  Captivate will when he published and you can choose the audio output in MP3 format accordingly compression settings.  CP is to save the MP3 to WAV in the library in an attempt to reduce the degradation of the quality of auio.  It is not out of the WAV itself to the publication. Use it just as the source file for that start with the highest quality before you compress it.

    Because the MP3 is a compressed audio format, if then you go and compress once AGAIN time to publish, you will eventually get the bad quality audio output because you're compressing twice.  The sound resulting can then very heard "wooshy.

    So leave the files in the library to WAV and then control the quality of your output for you sure get a file of publication small enough without sacrificing audio quality unnecessarily.

Maybe you are looking for
