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.

  • Move the playback cursor of mouse in multitrack mode click

    Hey guys, I'm on hearing for the first time and I had a question about moving the playhead in multitrack mode.

    So I'm used to pro tools where you click in the clip where you want to be the read head and the playhead moves just here.  I think hearing that in order to clickMove the read head in this way, I have to make it to the top in the timeline panel, rather than directly on the clip.  It becomes quite annoying to have to move the cursor of the mouse completely to the top of the screen whenever I want to make a montage.  Y at - it a hotkey or setting I'm missing here?  I tried clicking with normal combos... ctrl + click, alt + click, shift + click and with the more complex combos ctrl + alt + click, ctrl + shift + click, etc.

    Ago got to be a way to do this, I'm sure it's something that I haven't found yet.

    Thank you very much for your help!

    If you use the time selection tool (I have the beam icon) rather that the default move tool you can locate the cursor of the playback head where you want by clicking anywhere on your tracks. It also makes it easier to select portions of clips for editing. You will then need to right-click to move although any audio device.

  • Satellite L500-164 - how to cut the speaker internal audio output mode?

    Hello Forum,

    If I want to hear the sound on a stereo external audio internal is always on! I have therefore two audio lines in my environment. Not really good.

    I have a Satellite L500-164. Is this normal for Toshiba laptops? How can I finally disconnect the internal speakers? In headphone mode everything is ok. Internal speaker is disabled.

    Hope for the quick responses, so I can return the laptop in the conversion period.

    Thank you very much for the help!

    PS: Sorry for my bad English.

    Hello

    Check the settings in the control panel-> Realtek HD audio Manager
    There is no tab called speakers.
    On the right, you will find different parameters.
    An option is called Advanced Settings feature.

    Here, you should try a different as option:
    -Tie the same type input jacks
    -Separate all the independent input devices input jacks.

  • possible volume envelopes in multitrack mode?

    I saw this question fits a bit in search of forum, but don't really see obvious answer or says:

    Waveform display is the only way to apply the work environment of the precision volume envelope track it seems like a no-brainer for me - it is true that a novice - there should be some way bland do not destructive work middle track, i.e. envelopes volume... more fundamentally it I'm trying to do, is to have a song fade out while some arrives a spoken word track , then keep the volume of the consistent piece in the spoken language, and then have it go up to 100 percent of volume when the song end. I tried it through razor tools but still cannot perform transitions smooth volume in this way.

    If you'd be grateful if someone could indicate some specific instructions on how to do it. It seems that it would be too tedious to do all the work in wave form.

    Thank you

    Quin

    Well Yes.   Quite easy... it's kind of the ' bread and butter ' of multitrack work.

    First of all, in 'View' make sure there is a checkmark beside "Show Clip Volume envelopes.  You can also select envelopes for the functions Pan and effects in the same menu.  The usual default is for all these, but you'd better check.

    To use envelopes, find a thin yellow line about 2/3 of the way to the top of the screen of each waveform in multitrack view.  It is the volume control.  If you left click on it and you hold, you can drag the top line down to set a global level.  Use the "Move" tool to do... If you zoom out on a track, it can be difficult to see when the point is on the line, but, when you're in the right place, a box saying "Volume" will pop up.

    However, the most interesting is their use to make changes on the fly.  To cela a simple click on the line about where you want the change of level to start.  This will give you a little yellow marker on the line of the envelope.  Click again on a little later for a second marker.  Click and hold on the marker and you can drag it upwards and up to levels of change..., you can also drag left and right to change the points of beginning/end/length of the fade.  You can also drop markers multiple if you want to change the ballistics of the level change... start and end quickly or whatever.

    Note that you can use the same technique to change the settings of the tray or how much effect is on a track.

  • Audio latency AS3 solution?

    Hi all

    I have a large MP3 file (about 2 minutes), I load dynamically. I can play the sound very well, except that:

    I need to play pieces of sound, IE from 2 to 5 seconds and later from 6 to 10 seconds, etc.. Using the sound.play(2 * 1000) and sound.play(6 * 1000) I really high latencies, causing the first second or so to not be played.

    I came up with a class that feeds samples to the sampledata event. Browsing the internet told me that a buffersize of 2048 will reduce latency to 30ms on average, which is fine.

    package

    {

    import flash.events.SampleDataEvent;

    import flash.media.Sound;

    import flash.media.SoundChannel;

    import flash.utils.ByteArray;


    public class PlaySound

    {

    private var _sound:Sound = new Sound();

    private var _originalSound:Sound = new Sound();

    private var _samples:ByteArray;

    private var _startTime:Number;

    private var _endTime:Number;

    private var _position:Number;

    private var _bufferSize:int = 2048;

    private var _soundChannel:SoundChannel;

        

    public function {PlaySound(sound:Sound):void}

    _originalSound = a;

         }


    public void play (startTime:Number, endTime:Number):void { }

    _startTime = startTime * 1000;

    _position = _startTime;

    _endTime = endTime * 1000;

    _sound.addEventListener(SampleDataEvent.SAMPLE_DATA,onSampleDataEvent);

    _soundChannel = _sound.play (_startTime);

         }


    public function stop():void {}

    If (_soundChannel! = null) { }

    _sound.removeEventListener(SampleDataEvent.SAMPLE_DATA,onSampleDataEvent);

    _soundChannel.stop ();

    _soundChannel = null;

              }

    }


    public void onSampleDataEvent(event:SampleDataEvent):void {}

    var bytes: ByteArray = new ByteArray();

    var len:int = _originalSound.extract (bytes, _bufferSize, event.position);

    event.data.writeBytes (bytes);

              _position += len;

         }

    }

    }

    So I spend the (big) mp3 original sound in the constructor and then use this noise to feed the _sound who plays.

    (1) does it matter what are the original specifications of MP3 sound, or must they be 44 kHz/128 Kbps? When I use the sound.extract method, flash converts spec another 44 kHz/128 kbit/s or * must * I also pass in a mp3 player with the same features?
    I wish I could load an original mp3 with any record and therefore consume less bandwidth.

    (2) I can't convert the start/end time of the right position on the right position in the bytearray stream. Does anyone have a solution? How is it calculated? (Even if the original sound is not 44 kHz/128 kbit/s)?

    If someone has another solution to play the pieces on a bigger file mp3 without latency, please tell me

    Thank you!

    Ronaldo

    (1) according to the documentation, Flash will be resample files to these specifications, if they do not already exist. I have weirdness with bit depths that are not powers of two, but that might have been something in my code.

    (2) basically you just multiply by the sampling rate to get the shift of position. He is always 44100, as extraction converts the sampling frequency. So if your MP3 is 60 seconds and you want to extract the mid-point, the offset would be 30 * 44100.

    There will always be a latency, but you can calculate and make adjustments to offset according to the needs.

  • multitrack wav for 1,5 hour files record only 3 seconds long - lost audio

    I used Adobe Audition Mac CS6 version 5.02 build 5 a few days ago to record a conference of lawyers that I get paid to save.  I have been using to record multitrack and segments that have been about 1.5 hours of recording as stereo wav files.  During the second track record after about an hour, while the surveillance on phones and I look at the interface, the track popped out folder.  and stopped.  When I checked the file wav from this record, it is only 3 seconds of time instead of 1.5 hours.  I couldn't find anything useful in the trash or the location of the main disk cache.   A search of my hard drives for files created so far there isn't anything useful either.  I have auto save every 10 minutes turned on and I thought that hearing were the basic crash protection built in.  Is it possible to recover this loss of audio in a temporary file or cache somewhere, while the law firm that hired me will not tear me up like a pack of piranhas to lose audio they wanted to sell to their customers?

    Well, if you have been recording in multitrack view, it doesn't is not much of interest in research in the trash, or any kind of disk, because in multitrack mode, cache files are written directly to disk and no to any form of temporary storage. This also means that you will not find anything in the way of a backup. I'm afraid that if the files are not where you specified whether they are when you started recording, you have almost certainly lost. If you're absolutely sure he was recording for all this time, it might well be that the header of the file was damaged when he stopped, and that it is in fact a larger file that you have been led to think. The only thing that you can try with this scenario is to open the file in a .raw, provide the sampling frequency and type info and see what opens. If you're incredibly lucky, you will get your file back to the point that it stopped, and then you can re-record it. But don't hold your breath...

    1 rule to record anything original or punch - do not with hearing, or any other software if it is the only record you will end with. You should always have a redundant system of some sort. For live recording I never use hearing as a backup to one of the hardware-based systems. I have never had chess hearing during a recording, but you can bet your sweet life that if I had been absolutely according to her, he would have!

  • MOTU Audio Express plays don't no multitrack

    10.11 FCPX 10.2.2 with a MOTU Audio Express of the test.

    Probably a bug in the driver, but I'm having a problem where only FCPX only plays stereo return even if the project shows it will output surround.  Audio multitrack works in Quicktime Player, however it seems to be relegated to a FCPX problem.

  • No mode shows up or battery saving in HP steam 7 tablet mode

    Hello

    There is a problem with my HP steam 7 Tablet where I can not activate power saving mode for some reason any.  I click the power button, but the battery will be out in a few hours I don't have to manually close the tablet which is validator.  Is there a way to fix this?  Thank you.

    We had a good thread about this size, everything is there, but I can't seem to find, so I'll give you the short version. 2 things are known to prevent the cpu from sleep and empty the dough when the Tablet is in mode 'sleep'.

    One is the audio driver, the solution is to keep the volume to ZERO (this is equivalent to cut).

    the second is bluetooth/wifi (there is a process explorer which is stuck on), the work around is to turn on airplane mode when you are not using the tablet.

  • Audio workflow for Skype necessary records

    Hey everybody,

    My name is Quin and I did a podcast in my spare time. I use Adobe Audition for both multitrack and registration work, and a recent addition, I did the podcast is recording Skype calls with some people. I wanted to bring in Audition to work with, but I found it quite difficult. First of all, Skype audio settings are (as shown in the screenshot below) quite limited.skype recording.png

    The same files they are audio only - are saved in .mov format and I when I put them in hearing, they are open as stereo audio files with four channels (I think it's the phase) even if they audio seems to be exactly the same in both channels.

    Screenshot at Nov 09 18-35-09.png

    I use the range markers to find audio clips I want to insert into the multitrack view. Records that I do at home (inside the application of hearing) with microphones and an apogee Duet, the sound comes out like this:

    Screenshot at Nov 09 19-38-24.png

    This audio is really easy to segment and a non-destructive mix in audition multitrack mode. I can use a Bus, and transform this audio in stereo simply (the audio appears in both channels)

    What I'm trying to discern is the best way to take the first section of the audio (with four channels) and send it to the multitrack. When I take a marker of the .mov file range convert and send it to the multitrack mode, multitrack audio levels are far away. Only half of the audio comes as amplified and I can't use a bus to mix to the point where the noise levels are correct. It looks like this, which is not at all what the original noise levels were recorded (see the first screenshot of the display of waveform above):Screenshot at Nov 09 19-41-44.png

    Does anyone have a suggested workflow for how I can convert this audio so it aligns the recordings that I make at home? I tried several methods, but they all seem quite long and contrary to intuition and I would really like to hear some busy people more professionally on how I can do that, ideally, reducing to a minimum the number of destructive changes I make to the original audio file. If I do an initial conversion, it's cool, in which case I'd like to hear some suggestions on how to do the same.

    Thank you very much for your time and help,

    Quin

    It is quite easy to get rid of the duplicates. If you click on the track controls (the L R boxes and on the RIGHT side of each track) you can turn off each duplicate, and then they will appear gray on the screen. Then go Ctrl + A to select the entire file and then Shift Alt + C to copy the selection to a new. Only the operating range will be copied, so you'll end up with just both sides of the conversation in stereo, which is what you want. You must save this, and it becomes your working copy. There is another advantage to this as well - will now change you a copy of the original and the original will remain untouched, so you can always go back to it. It is still considered to be good practice!

  • An audio clip to lane split single screen.

    Hello

    I'm a budding voiceover artist learn the basics of editing. VO do I work on a track at once and I'd love to be able to use the razor tool to split the audio. Unfortunately, this is not an option. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to split audio effectively without a manual copy and paste with the selection tool?

    Thank you.

    The razor tool is an option only if you are working in multitrack mode. It is non-destructive and gives you the ability to split the titles and move. With the voice-over work, a way to achieve what you want to do is to put benchmarks in your saved original file (or preferably a copy of it - working with originals is not recommended, because errors can happen...), put these in reference ranges, and then by clicking right on the beach in the markers list You can export the beach as a "clip" directly in multitrack view and then manipulate it as you want.

    Because multitrack view is non-destrictive, clips are not really 'inside' at all - it's just replay your portion selected to the point you put it. This means that if it is too long or short, you can expand or collapse all by dragging the ends of the clamp. And as such, it does not disturb your saved original file (copy) the least of the world, so you can restore things to heart joy until you are satisfied with the result.

  • Non Destructive fades in Mode Waveform hearing

    Hello!

    I would like to ask if there is a way to make non-destructive fades in hearing in waveform mode. I found that there are mainly two ways audio melted (manipulators in the editor or by using the effect of bland envelope). If I use one of these methods in waveform mode, they seem to be destructive. The only way I knew to apply no destructive bland is in multitrack mode, using manipulators in the Editor window. The problem with doing it this way, is that I don't get the big Visual return on the waveform.

    Thank you if you have any ideas of a ton.

    Waveform is intended to be destructive - in the same way that isn't multitrack. That's the way it works, I'm afraid. There's no way around it.

  • Continuing the audio problems using the Kona card

    MAC PRO 2 x 2.93 GHz 6 Core

    CS6.0.1.31

    So I've dealt with this problem since I downloaded and started using the Kona 3 with PPCS6.0.1 drivers

    Often when I start my computer after it turned off the day before and restart the Prime Minister in the same project that I left that worked very well.  I'm broken audio playback mode.  When I check my audio computer system to preferences they mysteriously turned on in Kona, which is what causes the problem.

    I try to change their return to the line output line, preferneces and close then reopen and that the switch did not and they are back to Kona.

    I repair permissions and restart and make the change again... sometimes when I do this I get a kernel panic, so need to stop and start again.  Someties it will fix the problem today, sometimes not.  Today, after the kernel panic, everything seems to work properly.

    It's a bit boring and a 15 to 20 minutes exercise every morning.  Of course, I could leave my machine all night, but I'd sure appreciate all the ideas on how to fix this ongoing issue.

    I've turned into a bug report today, because I think that it is indeed a bug somewhere.

    THX... Jim Watt

    I found a post in the apple forum that solved this problem...

    If you have problems with your sound 'exit by default' in Snow Leopard, try the following...

    Go to your hard drive (root level) and open the library folder. Open the Preferences folder, and then open the Audio folder.

    Remove the two preference files in the Audio file:

    -com.apple.audio.DeviceSettings.plist

    -com.apple.audio.SystemSettings.plist

    Restart your mac, and I hope that your problems will be solved.

    This solution worked for me, and I hope that it will be too much for you.
