Compress keynote audio file

The Keynote Presentation I'm trying to send on Blackboard, for my college presentation, is not working.  The written portion of the Keynote Presentation will attach to the College Online Blackboard, but the Keynote RECORDED AUDIO portion will NOT attach itself.  Has anyone ever encountered this.  I've posted other Keynote Presentations with success, but this is the only presentation where I've had to record my own voice and it will not attach itself...any clues?

I think you meant the Metrics Inspector? Also, to get this info, you need to have your audio object selected. The QuickTime Inspector does not give you file info, and neither give you file location data. Don't know why, unless Keynote is assuming you've set you media files to be embedded.
BTW, if you ever want to isolate a file outside of a slide, you can drag the proxy icon out of the Media Inspector and drop it on an appropriate app on the Dock. For this audio file, you could drag it onto QuickTime Player, and then Command-click on the proxy icon in QuickTime Player to see the path of where the file originated. Kinda kludgey, but it works...

  • How do I compress an audio file?

    Hello,
    This is definitely an overloaded home page, but I am doing what I am told. I am working on making some of the images smaller for speed.

    My problem is that the audio works fine on my computer on Safari, but gets cut off on Flock and Firefox. Would a different audio file be more universal to browsers? Or is this just an overload problem? Or should I compress the audio file - its 4MB?

    The audio file I see is 745 Kb, which is still a little large for a file being forced on your visitors. You could reduce the sample rate from 44100Hz and/or the bitrate from 128 kb/s.
    Is that Jimmy Buffet? Do you have clearance/license to use the music?
    You've also got some odd slicing of your images. More judicious use of transparent GIF or PNG files may be useful.

  • Keynote, Audio file embedded on slide, properties such as file name?

    Any way to see the properties of the embedded audio file such as its name, or where it is located? I've converted from Powerpoint, but miss this RClick, Properties option to at least see the name of the file that is embedded.

  • How should i export already h.264 compressed video/audio files after i edit them?

    I am recording gameplay footage off computer with a program that compresses the video and audio. After I edit the footage how should i export it? I don't want to lose quality by double compressing it.

    No.
    You need to explore Compound Clips. This workflow may or may not be of help.
    Select an Event with clips in it and press Option+G to make a (blank) compound clip.
    Select the Event Browser, create a new Event and call it 'Effects'.
    Drag the Compound Clip into this Event.
    Right-click the clip and select 'Open in Timeline'.
    Select the timeline and press Option+W. This will add a Gap Clip to the timeline.
    Select the gap clip and press Ctrl+D then type in the duration you want the clip to be.
    Now open a project and select and copy one of the clips with effects etc.
    Open the Compound Clip in the Timeline again, select the gap clip and press Option+Cmd+V to paste the effects into your Compound Clip.
    This clip is now saved in your Browser and will remain there for you to copy and then paste the effects into any clip in any project.
    It's a bit clunky, but it works - and once you learn about Compound Clips, you can work wonders with them. As an example, if you want to add more effects without overwriting the effects in the Compound Clip, simply make the Compound Clip into a Compound Clip (again) and add the effects. They will be added to the original effects.

  • Compress audio file to mp3 or aiff of 5 MB?

    Hello,
    Does anyone know if I cam compress an audio file on GarageBand for the iPad 2? I'd like to take a file 30 minutes in length and be able to email it, so I need to compress it to 5 MB or less.

    only thing I can think of is "share with iTunes" and then once the file is in iTunes, compress it again there, by going to iTunes -> preferences and on the general tab, about 3/4 of the way down, click Import Settings and then set your settings to MP3 and then choose custom from the settings drop down and then choose a really low kbps bit rate. You may have to experiment, I haven't had coffee and can't do the math right now to suggest a bit rate for a 30 minute file becoming a 5MB MP3. Good luck!

  • Compressing Audio Files-Help please.

    Will compressing the audio files held on my hard drive in itunes meen that they can still be played as normal and will it have an effect on the synchronization with my ipod.

    By compressing, I assume you mean putting them in one of the standard formats, namely mp3 or AAC, but at a lower bit rate?
    If that is what you mean, then the answer is yes, you can still play them as normal. You will lose some audio quality due to the sonic information lost in the compression, so don't go do it wholesale until you have tried and assured that you are happy with the results.
    (If by compressing you mean something else, e.g. zipping them, then don't bother, since they will not compress much and will not be playable until you unzip them.)

  • More then 2hrs to compresse 60minutes VIDEO file in MPEG 2 DVD BEST QUALITY

    On my Dual 2.5 GHz 4GB RAM, is this normal ?

    It took 3h30 minutes. Will I see a difference using DVD Fastest Encode ? For exemple, can it be possible to have a problem like the DVD freezing in some DVD player because I'm using a faster Encoding setting like DVD Fastest ?
    This is my workflow for now:
    -Export from FCP, AUDIO ONLY current settings, self contained.
    -Export from FCP, VIDEO ONLY current settings, self contained.
    -Import to Compresor the self contained files and compress the audio file using Dolby 2.0 before sending to DVDSP.
    -Import to Compresor the self contained video file and compress using DVD Best quality MPEG2 2-pass before sending to DVDSP.
    I do NOT export from FCP directly to Compressor.

  • AAC audio file increase in size when imported into DVD Studio Pro

    Hello all!
    I just encountered a very unique issue with the DVD Studio Pro. I used the compressor to export my video as an MPEG2 file and my audio as AAC file. After the compression my audio file had an .mpg4 extention and was about 160MB in size. When I imported it into my DVD Studio Pro project, however, the audio increased in size to 1.2 GB. I tried so many different compressions, but the problem really is (I think) that the file bumps up in size once imported into DVD SP project. Is there anything in preferences that I need to adjust or change? Please help!
    Thank you.

    Hi
    I'm a little lost now with versions history, but if you have A.Pack in your App folder, then must use it. Check this tutorial: Encoding AC3 with A.Pack.
    Compressor 2 and 3 has AC3 encoding inside the main application.

  • Should I compress a song file before putting it into Keynote?

    I want to add “America the Beautiful” to a presentation that I am making. I have read that it isn't possible to have a song playing throughout the whole presentation of slides, so I decided to put different versions of the song, sung by different artists, on each separate page/slide.
    I notice that in a Keynote tutorial using a song from Garageband, they said to compress the song (in Garage Band). My question is, if I have the song clips already, should I run them through something (like QuickTime ) to compress them and lighten the file? Or does that compression have only to do with lightening the file for emailing? What should I do?

    First, I don't recommend compressing audio unless you have to do so for reasons other than file size. That said, bringing audio into Keynote via Garage Band usually works fairly well.
    You can have an audio file run throughout your presentation. Go to the Inspector / Document / Audio menu and Record the audio file as a Soundtrack. Any editing or other changes to the audio track will need to be done off-line, however, before you import (or Record) the track into Keynote. Also be aware that if your slides run-out before the audio track does, the audio will be cut-off. So be sure that you have sufficient material (or have timed your slides properly) to last the duration of the song. And vice-versa!
    Good luck.

  • Where does Keynote store the audio files in a presentation

    I have slides with individual audio files. When I import or attach the file and then save the presentation, it changes the file name to .mov extension. Where does Keynote store those files? I would like to edit the saved Keynote version, but cannot locate the .mov file!

    I'm not exactly sure of what you want to do, and I'm not sure if my answer is the most efficient, or even wholly correct, but here goes ...
    When you save a KN presentation (a KN doc) which includes an audio (or movie) file, you can save it 2 (3?) ways: either without or with the file being copied into the document, or as a "package". In a test file I just made with 3 white slides (title, slide with song, second slide with song) the results:
    without: 3.8 MB; with: 9.4 MB; package: 9.4 MB. The essential difference, aside from size, is that if saved without, if you play the KN on another machine which doesn't have those audio files on it, the audio won't be there. To make the KN truly portable, you must save with, or as a package. (I'm not too sure of the concept of package in KN. In PP, saving as a package means you end up with a folder, which contains the PP and the media files, each as separate entities. Saving a KN package yields not a folder but a file, which looks to me identical to the result achieved by simply saving with, and seems to behave identically, as well.) The audio file you used will in any case remain where it was before you used it, but, if the KN doc is saved with, or as a package, a copy of it will go into the KN doc.
    But then, what do you mean by "edit"? What do you want to edit, the KN presentation, or the audio file within it? If the former, I don't understand where the problem might be. If the latter: using the QT inspector within KN, you can change the length of the audio file (where in the song it starts and stops), whether to start it on click, or automatically after transition, or to loop it. If you wanted to do some other, more exotic audio editing, like reverbs or other effects, I'd do that on (a copy of) the original audio file (found wherever it was before) with another app (GarageBand, for instance), and then I'd replace the first, non-edited, version of the audio file in the KN doc with that.
    Have I missed something?
    Message edited by gbdoc: maybe someone will chime in to clarify the difference between "saved with" and a "package"

  • Emagic's "ZAP" program - archived compressed audio files unable to open.

    I have a number of audio files that were compressed/packed using emagic's ZAP program that I was interested in revisiting but it seems my copy of "ZAP' has run out of authorisations over the years through computer meltdowns. Does anyone have a solution to this problem?
    Thanks.

    Yeah, I think I have a copy on my PC, or if not, I could probably dig it out.
    There was a free unpack-only version of Zap that should enable you to get at your files - though where you could locate a copy I don't know. It might have been included on Logic master disks around V4.x.... It would probably be OS9 only I guess, for the Mac version.

  • How to process overly compressed high volume audio files

    I used a process in scientific filters in audition 3 to process overly compressed high volume audio files normalized to 0 db. It was like magic.
    How would you process this sort of file in Audition 6.

    Below was the process used in Adobe Audition 3. The sound was much improved. Try the steps on a file you have to hear the difference.
    Effects- Amplitude - Normalize - uncheck the decibles format box - normalize to and normalize L/R boxes checked, enter 48 into percentage box.
    After normalization was complete
    Effects - Filters - Scientific filters - select Chebychev 1 tab - band pass button and select the following parameters.
    Cutoff =4, high cutoff = 22050, order = 18 all other settings at defaults values (0). Delay radio button sellected, check the extended range box, press OK.
    Increase to appropriate volume after processing if necessary.
