Tecra S11 - low sound level

I recently bought a S11 and as a former owner of the Tecra line, I was very disappointed with the Audio level. I realize that the S11 is a Business and not a multimedia machine, but I have to sit nearby and make sure that there is no noise in the room to hear the speakers edge.

Is there a way to fix this? Even 50% more audio would be a huge improvement.

Hi Pman,

I m not a Tecra S11 owner but I can't imagine that the sound level is so low that you described.

What program to use for listening to music?
What type of files you have more music?
What operating system you have?

I can recommend the player media VLC media player. That s a tool of freeware that is really great and the audio plays and empty files.

Make sure also that you have higher and you are trying to update the audio driver.

  • Different sound level on the exported audio files?

    Today, I opened Audition, created a session multitrack with sampling frequency 44100KHz, 2 channels (stereo) and 32-bit depth.

    I tried to merge a part of a song with the rest of another song, but I realized that the hearing has a low sound level as Windows Media Player or any other media player.

    I looked for any configuration that could make WMP change the original sound, but he did play the song with the original sound level

    If I have the low sound of hearing was something that wouldn't stay in the exported file.

    But he did! And it was always like that, not just today.

    What should I do?

    It is not entirely clear as to where is your lower level, but if you're talking about level hearing on the mixing being 3dB lower than what happens when you play multitrack, then the answer is simple - you need to reset the pan law-3dB center left/right cut (logarithmic) - this option is in the preferences > multitrack at the top of the pane. This will give you the same level on a file drop-down mixed or exported as you see on the screen.

    But if you talk of levels of listening about, then it is very difficult to make useful comparisons to all levels of output. WMP and hearing use drivers and completely different engines, to the sounds of Windows via the Windows mixer - which changes even when reading levels. Hearing, if it goes directly to an audio device via an ASIO driver, don't get disturbed by the operating system in the slightest (that is the idea...), but if she gets plugged into the operating system for the output, then once more, the level can be changed through the Windows mixer.

    But in the final analysis, it's not really important. Hearing files can be standardized so that the peaks are just below 0 dBFS, and if you do that, they will play correctly on any other player. If they seem to be more silent, it will be because of the overall volume of the file, and it is a decision of mix - nothing to do with the format of file at all. And this is often a problem with the mixture of two songs from different sources together - if it is been compressed a lot to make it sound louder and the other does not, while the levels will never match perfectly to the join, whatever you do. Your only recourse here would be to compress the most calm one more to match the first - but that 's going to change the sound, probably in ways you might not like.

    So, quite a lot of options, really.

  • How to change sound on Tecra S11?

    The sound sounds aweful! Which speakers could buy and replace in my Toshiba Tecra S11?

    To be honest I m really surprised by your question. Always is that laptop Tecra are designed for commercial and designed for use in offices, meeting rooms and the customer visit so the sound is not so important in the whole of the package. This is not portable multimedia, so you probably won't find any Tecra with high quality speakers inside.

    OK, I can understand you and maybe it's not a bad idea to have Perfect sound on this model of laptop, but I think this is the wrong place for your question. What you need is professional advice.

    I recommend you contact the nearest authorized maintainer and ask for help. They have service manuals and know what speakers are inside and what speakers can be integrated as a replacement. Maybe some high quality of harman/kardon speakers can be used for the upgrade, but that one is not easy to say.

    If you do upgrade successfully please let us know and share all information with us.

  • Tecra S11 - 11 H - stop with the fan turns

    Tecra S11 - 11 H stops - seems ok, but when the screen is off, after 3 seconds, CPU-fan begins to operate.
    Pressing the power button / stop a few seconds turns off the machine and shut the fan.

    Support put me to upgrade to the latest version of the prints digital-device driver, but I found the software, no drivers.

    They also told me to upgrade the bios to the latest version.

    Problem is that this update of the bios will not start. He complains about power cord power supply not connected or battery power is low.
    The two isn't true - power cord is plugged in and the battery is fully charged.

    What could I do?

    TIA

    Hi lgkf,.

    Yes, I think the support from Toshiba is just because I found this article on the Toshiba page:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB0C032L0000R01.htm

    As you can see, update the fingerprint software can help you get rid of this problem, then you must update the software of fingerprint. The pilot is a part of the software, then download the package for fingerprints on the Web from Toshiba site.

    Uninstall the older version, reboot and install the downloaded version.

  • CD Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab (OLA) sound level

    The noise level of the CD any of the Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab (OLA) is very low.  In the OPTION section, I put the volume up, BUT it's still very small compared to the CD standard.  How can I fix so that the MFSL CD have the same sound level as CD ordinary?

    I'm not familiar with these CD. If the iTunes option does not sufficiently increase the volume for you, you should try a third-party tool that standardize the volume to the desired level. Audacity is free, but there are many editors (many of which are free if you do not have to pay for anything whatsoever, unless you really want to) that standardize.  RIP to AIFF format, normalize, and then convert it to the desired format.

    Ensure that the balance is not enabled in the preferences. It can sometimes have unwanted results.

  • Tecra S11 mini audio Dsiplayport - output

    Hello

    I read the user manual and I don't see anything on the audio output mini Displayport.

    Tecra S11 supports audio output via mini displayport is?

    Is there any mini displayport to HDMI cable that supports the sound to send the video and AUDIO to my LCD TV?

    Thank you

    As much as I know there NO sound using mini display port.
    Using this port, you can send a video signal only.
    For sound, you should use external taken (stereo) headset.

  • Resolution of the webcam on Tecra S11

    Hi, I have a problem with my brand new Tecra S11 - 12R and hope someone here can help you!
    My webcam only works in resolution 1280 * 720 and higher, but all not more low resolutin :-( For example, I can't use Skype for the Visio.
    I installed TOSHIBA Web Camera Application V1.1.2.6
    Thanks for the tips.

    I think you're the first person who cannot use cam for Skype Conference.
    As far as I know in the Skype video settings there is no option for resolution changes if this is not important.

    OK you have installed the new software of the camera and it's good for its use, if you want to make some photographs of you or short record but you n t need for use with different messengers. If you can get out Camera Assistant software and then open Skype and check the video settings it.

    Cam is recognized correctly? You see the photo in the box on the right side of the settings window?

  • Satellite L655 - 1 2 - Low sound

    Greetings.

    The Satellite L655 - 1 2 model a sound very silent, all checked in wood fire. If to fit Audi chip begins to vibrate to a sound of 100%. Compared to the laptop from the Satellite U300 - 13 M friend, he shouts as abnormal and don't collide.

    Invite please it is normal for the same model or something must be settled, updated or added?
    Grateful in advance for the answer.

    PS. : I of Moscow, to apologize for the English.

    Hey Buddy,

    Well, first of all: different laptops have different sound cards and speakers, so you shouldn't t compare it to other models.
    As far as I know Satellite L series isn't equipped with high quality speaker Harman/kardon, the first point it that s

    The next question is when you notice the low sound volume. It's when you watch a video or MP3s? What media player you are using?

    I recommend VLC media player. I use this player for years now and it s excellent freeware tool and it allows you to adjust the volume on a high level.

  • low sound on Classic FM and BBC

    My Office CQ5304UK behaved immpecably in recent years, but only in the last two weeks has developed a problem with the sound levels.

    The sound card is an M - Audio 2496. When I play the Live BBC Radio 3 the level is down to-50 dB on 2496 meters and is of course very low playing through my Tannoy 5A monitors. It is however quite clean and noise and distortion-free.  On another W7/64 office levels are at-20 dB with peaks at-4dB.  This is also the case on another XP machine.

    Sources of YouTube read to near 0 dB and all my recordings are at the right level. If I go to the archives of the BBC sites THAT music is at the correct level. It is simply live sound that's not going to. The same problem is with Classic FM live.

    I got just this computer I have of course blame the BBC and CFM delivery system!

    The CQ is also bad from a Native Instruments KA6 interface levels.

    I am really confused!

    I managed to get rid of re installed Flash and re installed drivers of 2496, all without effect.

    Dave. Northampton UK.

    The problem is resolved. It's to do with the Radio Player app on the BBC website.

    I do not see how to attach the screenshot for those who want to know enough to go!

    Basically, there is a small "speaker" icon Now, I flew over, left and this a dozen times right click in the last week or Yes but she either does nothing or it completely mute.

    However, a guy at the forum www.soundonsound.co.uk found that if you "sneak up" on the icon to the right it suddenly gives you a volume control! But! Only while the mouse cursor is in preeeecisely in the right place, twitch and you miss. After a little practice, I was able to adjust the level back to 100% and everything is beautiful and neggerty 20 once more!

    One of the guys at sos .co is a grad BBC ex' engineer and even he said he found the stupid and obscure funtion. Some time ago the BBC will display an icon of volume of style "ramp", but those pesky coders SHOULD keep things "better" aren't they!

    Thanks to everyone for their contributions and abstaining.

    Dave.

  • Sound levels fall at half

    Hi again,

    I'm going nuts on something that I've spent too many hours on it now. Sound levels sometimes fall to export about half or even playing in PP rendered files. I can't understand why that if I rub the back and try again, many times it plays very well.

    I have 11 layers of HD images with video clips related to after effects etc and 6 audio. Everything is rendered and export gives me weird audio level even falls. It always happens between clips (at the beginning of the next clip) but not always. He falls to about half for a few seconds and always at the same level.

    I should say that have exported this project even several times during which actually without changing the "audio" problem areas, but as it accumulates I get problems - is it too heavy to handle or anything happening? This is not the first time that I have encountered this problem. Problem areas have only 2 layers of audio tracks playing at the same time.

    Export audio without video gives the same result. Anyone have any suggestions?

    Kind regards

    I always have the feeling that the DeNoiser could pose a problem

    I agree with you.  Remove the effect and clean clips in Soundbooth.

    I'll triple square on it. The DeNoiser effect works (near as I can tell) by doing some "run in" audio to work with; Basically, it's an analysis on the fly, while trying to establish a noise floor. When you have the silence before the music, the effect it's what should be the level of the next element, so it clamps to the lower levels in an attempt to crush what it interprets as noise. Many times, the effect will work fine if you start reading somewhere after the beginning of the clip, but nowhere before, and you get unwanted mitigation.

    It was my rather unsuccessful experience with this particular effect...
