Fixing Terrible sounding audio first CS5.5

Hello

One of my clients has downloaded some audio on the Internet and gave me to use an editing tool and it sounds terrible. Poor quality, a little crunchy, low base, sounding a bit tinny.

Anyone have some suggestions on how I would go about fixing this problem? I have the full suite of CS5.5.

Thank you and I wish you a happy new year!

As has been mentioned, starting with the sound quality is the key, but there are some things that can be done to "improve" other less than stellar Audio. This ARTICLE covers a part of it.

The rec. doing audio in Audition is one where I would start. However, while it's a great program, it has same limits. At some point, you will be faced with "diminishing returns", on what can be done to improve the Audio vs how long it takes.

Good luck

  • File audio h.264 out of sync. First CS5.5

    After building a new machine with first CS5.5, using the Q4000 NVIDIA card, I have trouble opening my audio are out of sync. I export sequences DSLR the same sequence was already good export on my old computer. Now, when I export, the sound is out of sync a few images. There is something really funny going on. When I play the same video file in Windows media player, it seems to be in harmony. When I play it in Quicktime, it is clearly out of step. Also, when I upload to Vimeo, it is out of sync as well.

  • Help! Exporting a first CS5 photo story no video just of JPEG files, trying to resize

    I've seen a heck of a time trying to get this to work. I'm doing a video test in first CS5.  There is no video JPEG only. I need to change the resolution of 640 x 360, but keep image quality.

    When I export files, the media encoder appears, but I can't understand how to change these settings.

    Any help would be fantastic.

    NOTE: There are audio tracks I need. The stills where turned on a T2i can. The parameters of the sequence is 1280 x 720, but the ability to change the resoultion is grayed out?

    Exactly how do you plan to offer the material exported?

    With a sequence set to 1280 x 720 and 640 x 480 still Images, you're looking at one of the two modes of action:

    Leave the black bars around the fixed Images, or

    Step up 640 x 480 still Images to match the size of the image of the sequence - resulting in a loss of quality

  • First CS5 - system reading HDV freezes/crashes!

    Hi all

    Despite the immense anger and frustration that accumulates in these moments there, I will try as hard as possible to stick to the facts here:

    First CS5 is completely unusable since I bought it 6 weeks ago.  It runs on a new Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit system.   He can't handle the HDV playback and blocks the machine at random intervals during play, normally within a few seconds.  Sometimes the 'crash' means that the video freezes for and audio continues to play.  Sometimes, the accident blocks the whole machine or even forces an immediate re-boot.  First seems to behave as if it is running on an old and slow system that cannot follow.  I cannot perform a single Edition on my calendar because of the crash problem.

    I support box to open with Adobe, but they seem to have no idea how fix the problem and continue round in circles (they tried to dismiss the case 3 times more!).  I called Sunny, Sundeep, Riaz, Deepak and the supervisor, Avinash.  I have also contacted technical sales engineer Steve Burnard (to the BVE, Earls Court), but have so far been ignored, despite its promises to help.  I have been working through a comprehensive list of maintenance, but made no progress.  It goes without saying really, but my business suffers bigtime.

    My system spec is as follows: Asus P7P7P55-M, Intel Core i7 870, Coolermaster Hyper TX3, 8 gb Corsair DDR3 1600 mhz CL9 DHX (4 x 2 GB modules), NVidia GeForce GTX 460 1 GB, 700w EZCool Tornado PSU, Western Digital FW800 Raid Array, Matrox Triplehead2go (now disconnected from paternalism).  The machine is NOT overclockee, and I have no antivirus software or other programs on the system: it is a dedicated video editing system.

    I'm under first CS5 version 5.0.3 (all updates installed).  My NVidia drivers are up-to-date (266.58 version). My images are HDV 1080i for a Canon XLH1a (PAL).

    Here is a summary of the main things I've tried.  None of these steps has made a clear difference:

    • Changed "rendering optimizes memory/performance."
    • Tinkered with memory allocation settings
    • Cache cleared
    • Lowered playback quality
    • Captured or imported new film HDV (same camera)
    • Re-capture the images of 'problem' (same camera)
    • Film imported from another machine (work). These images editing / playing perfectly in CS3 on the old machine and was captured on the same device
    • Footage moved to another (fast) drive hard internal
    • Other drivers and BIOS updated
    • Entry memory timings/tension manually instead of using the parameters of the BIOS 'Auto '.
    • TH2go disconnected and uninstalled Matrox Powerdesk
    • Updated day/re-installed video card drivers (clean install)
    • First uninstalled and then reinstalled updates one at a time (the last 5.0.3)
    • Run memtest86 with only a WHAT DIMM installed in time - no error reported
    • Run Prime95 Torture test for 4.5 hours with no error reported
    • Tried to import Quicktime HD DVD 'Company of images' files (won't import)

    Main findings:

    Images that hangs at first CS5 plays back fine in Windows Media Player on the same machine at full resolution.

    The images which blocks the first time and publishes fine on an old machine running Premiere CS3.

    Capture the scene does not work properly - it cuts off after a few minutes. Bands must therefore be captured in their entirety, meaning file sizes are large.

    AVI files seem to play back fine so far (could it be related to higher compression formats?)

    My apologies for the length of this post.  It is a complex problem and long term, and so far no 'professionals' from Adobe showed a real willingness to help.  Adobe support have suggested so far only the basics.  They are extremely reluctant to you allow to talk to their support higher level officers and seem to basically just script-readers.  If a suggestion does not work, they seem to have no idea of what to try next (until they ' talking to their superiors'!).

    They recorded a session with me and are apparently still discuss the results: honestly, I'm not sure I believe them.  Four weeks have passed now.   According to me, that I really need someone to try to resolve the conflict of machine/first on hardware software.  I could be wrong, but given all of my testing so far this seems to be caused by a conflict between the first and something on my machine... .but what?  I don't see any sign of a faulty hardware.

    All the advice in the wake of any listed above would be appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

    Power supplies - what!

    I would like to say to NewEggs on sides of the user as a good starting point to help with your selection. I like also jonnyGuru.com be able to provide comments. they looked at a lot of different p / s

    About power, do not put too much weight in this alone. I have an old Thermaltake Toughpower 675 watts p/s which is so solid, but there are sellers of 1000 and 1200 models of watt that I wouldn't trust in my system for a second. I think you should at least 650 watt rated p/w with a renowned manufacturer.

    Things that I find important:

    -more large power units tend to be much quieter with excess capacity and more fans (I got the AX1200 gold Corsair and LOVE)

    -models of modular cables may provide much cleaner cases

    -variable speed fans

  • Satellite P105-S6024 and terrible sound quality

    The sound quality on this laptop was very bad for some time.

    I tried all of the updates and drivers more recent download from Toshiba Web site without success, including latest conexant driver, which seems to be 2007. . . . I use XP/SP3. For a system that is supposed to have good sound quality, with harmon kardon speakers, it's frustrating because it is inaudible. The cracks of sounds, pop, is intermittent, is static and just is generally quite poor.

    There is not a problem with the volume, just the terrible sound quality any thoughts would be appreciated.

    Hello

    I see you are using the Windows XP which was not preinstalled by Toshiba.
    I think that this laptop came with the Windows Vista operating system.

    Have you noticed the same sound quality by using the Windows Vista operating system?
    I think you should check this.

    If the noise would do better to use the Vista then it might be a problem of sound driver.

  • Editing audio first in Audition, when the marquee tool, the changes do not take effect or I would like to export.

    Editing audio first in Audition, when you use the marquee tool to get rid of unwanted 'knocking' noise audio, the changes do not take effect or I would export after changes in the spectral display.

    No indication on how to save the changes to the marquee selection tool would be great.

    Hmm.  You did something for the audio in the selection?  It looks not to the file has been modified at all, and the registration option is not enabled, unless a change has occurred.  I suppose you try to remove or reduce the volume of the sound inside the selection rectangle, is that correct?  With this selection, you can press DELETE to remove it completely, or set the volume floating just above the selection of lower button.

    It also seems that you stopped reading, and while that save the selection under will be activated pause, of many other commands will not.

    So, try in the following order:

    1 stop playback.  Is File > Save now activated?

    2. otherwise, do some edit to this file.  You will know that the file is considered 'dirty' when an asterisk * appears next to the name of the file in the files Panel and the top of the editor Panel.

    3. There is no number 3.  I feel confident, one of the first two options will work.  Once the file is saved and overwritten, go back to the first and you should hear the content updated the.

  • RAW video plays for only 1 second in first CS5 Viewer

    I'm on an iMac, OS X 10.6.8 Intel Core i7 2.93 GHz, 8 GB of memory.

    I try to use the First CS5 (full version), which I am new to edit a raw video that was shot. Import the file (.mov files 590,1 MB) by double clicking, then I drag this file into the window of the observer.

    I click on the play button and the first time it plays for about a second, then at any time after that, he plays at the best prices. If I hold down the right arrow key it plays but it is extremely rough.

    I looked for solutions (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/642962?tstart=0) and I found a suggestion of update my drivers by a software update, after a reboot, what has not worked. Then I found a suggestion to try to reproduce the problem even after log you in as User Root , but I still have the same question as the User Root.

    I tried to do my editing in Final Cut Express and it worked fine, but because it's Express is a little limiting. I thought about a version of first full pro would be better.

    Is there anyone else out there with the other suggestions?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi Dave,.

    Welcome to the forum.

    Please carefully follow the instructions contained in this Adobe tech document:

    Audio stops playing, earrings after several seconds. Soundbooth, Adobe Premiere Pro | CS5, CS5.5 | Mac OS 10.6.x

    I know that it lists audio and Soundbooth and other things that you may not think affect your problem, but it is the right solution.

  • Hearing with first CS5 problems

    Someone had problems with hearing 5.5 does not not with first CS5. I have both programs (but not a part of the Suite). Then, hearing CS5 is installed and therefore first CS5. After splitting a sound channel, I want to take the change with hearing from the drop down, but edit it with hearing is cut; It is interesting however modify it with Soundbooth is highlighted and it works. But I would like to work with the hearing. Does anyone have these problems?

    This built-in feature only works with the first CS5.5, I think.  There may be some hacks registry or something to run around with first CS5.0, but I have the feeling that the only way to fly with success of stuff back as expected is to get the upgrade.

    Now, if that is indeed what you have and this is the case, then it is a different problem altogether.

  • First cs5, raid 0 (2 discs) what is the best to 2 discs to use for avchd/hdv?

    I want to scratch (2) 2 TB set for Raid 0 disks. What is the best readers in use for editing avchd/hdv? What is the size of the cache matter? 3 discs would be faster or is my processor the neck of the bottle.

    Windows 7, 2 + year old Quad Core Q9650 @ 3 GHZ, Nvidia Geforce GTS450, first cs5, 8 GB of ram.

    I have 1 system disk of 10 000 rpm

    & an existing (disc 2) 1 gig each Raid 0 for all the video/audio/project files...

    I want to add a 2nd raid 0. Hoping for RT more with the 2nd most recent raid without changing the MB or CPU.

    Rather than investing in drives of 2 TB, register and upgrade your whole system. A Q9650 is about 6-8 times slower than a fast system and it your main bottleneck using AVCHD.

  • First CS5 + images 7 d + = my computer cannot return (!)

    Hello guys
    A week ago I had my first assignment and my client does not really believe I can do it (when he saw filming me with 7 d.) o I really want to surprise him. The problem is that I do something wrong or my computer is really too slow to make movies.

    First of all, spec. comp:

    Pentium Dual Core 3.0 GHZ 64-bit
    4 GB RAM OCZ Platinum Rev2 800 MHZ 4-4-4-15
    WD Caviar 160GB 7200 (I know ;()
    GeForce 8800GTS 640MO

    Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit

    I'm working on the first CS5 and After Effects CS5 (tests at the moment ' casue I have to consider purchasing computer before buying the software better :/).

    I had a 4 MINUTE long 7 D images, executed in first, color in After Effects (dynamic linked Premiere), and with a few cross dissolve transitions first + a track ambient (25 MB) and voice track (70 MB). The PROBLEM IS when I want to PAY him, he says he will make for 36HOURS (!). I can't even finish it because I can't play the full movie. I wanted to go to a really small format just to check if there is everything fine with cuts and with sound but can't!  I chose QuickTime format and codec H.264 with 50% of the quality, 23.976 rate, D1/DV PAL widescreen and it shows me 36HOURS...

    I tried the trial Cineform Neoscene codec and convert my .mov AVCHD in cineform .avi video, then I tried to make it with the worst possible .flv options and it shows me always more than 30 hours

    Am I doing something wrong or what?:(

    Concerning
    Paul

    The PROBLEM IS when I want to PAY him, he says he will make for 36HOURS (!)

    It is to be expected when the system does not yet meet the minimum requirements and that you are dealing with one of the most difficult codecs and taxing autour.

    The only solution I see is to get a new PC: Forums Adobe: how to build PC? and watch the economic model as a bare minimum with this source material.

    What you are trying to do is to carry a load of 40 tonnes with a bike uphill. But by choosing QuiRckTime as export format, make you it even worse, you have a bike with a rear flat tire. Stay away from 32 bit QT as much as possible.

  • Panasonic HDC-SD707 1080/50 p & first CS5?

    Hey there I really need help!

    I have a new Panasonic HDC-SD707 and until yesterday, I still shot in 1080i/25...

    but finally, I wanted to shot in 1080/50 p, since it's the future and the reason why you need this cam ^ ^ (known as panasonic) and progressiv got these nice details!

    Ok!

    then I went out and shot things at ut to 1080 / 50 p. the files on my mac (via clipwrap)... and then I saw the problem!

    QuickTime has read the files, but not really smooth. Sometimes the medium photo to fast movements, it slows down, and then it plays at normal speed, fast, normal, slow... and so on.

    So, I started first cs5...

    and here is my questions!

    1. first of all, it has no such pre-set for p. 1080/50 m I'm blind? or is it not there? and if she's not here... why?

    2. I tried many things but the first is not also read the files just... I also tried to use the files '.mts"directly from my cam, but it's the same problem... is there something special I need to do?

    3. is it possible that it is impossible to use the files in 1080/50 p and I need to stick with 1080i/25?

    I hope someone can help and my English is good enough to get the problem...

    I'd really like some help because I'm just getting into the video and don't know how to fix this on my own!

    Thanks in advance :-)

    1. it is not standard. Use the icon of a new item in the project Panel to get the correct sequence settings.

    2. see #1.

    3. No, you can change them OK, but you can't export, since the only authorized export format is 1080i/25.
