chrissmith,
I believe all these is down to personal preferences. Some may like the effect of CMSS but some don't. It's pretty subjecti've. Why don't you try turning it on and off to compare it and see which you prefer.

Best settings for surround sou

Hey everyone! What do you think are the best settings for a surround sound gaming setup with the X-Fi ExtremeMusic card? At the moment I have CMSS-3D on, with Stereo Surround and the Stereo Envelopment turned to Surround at the max. Is there any better way of having the settings for surround sound for gaming? Also, the 24bit Crystalizer is at 50%, is that ok? Thanks in advance for the replies!

I like using Stereo Surround to 50% and rock equalizer, with Crystalizer to the max

Best settings for xtremegam

Is there any webpage that gives the best settings for each of the modes for specific purposes?
For example, I use the HD555s and I mostly play cs .6. What would be the best settings for .6? Especially for the best positional sound?

There's not that much to it, really. Just put it into 'Game' mode, turn the Crystalizer on if you like it (use 50% or you risk distortion), and enjoy. Having 'Game' mode enabled will let the card use EAX 5 whenever it's available, as well as fully accelerate the sound; the other modes stick on something like EAX 3.
There is CMSS, which manipulates the sounds to try and emulate how your ear affects the characteristics of sound coming from different directions (if you run a fast tap and listen to it with your head looking in different directions you should notice the pitch changes slightly -- CMSS tries to do this).
Only problem is that the CMSS technology isn't perfect, as everyone's ear is slightly different and your brain is used to how <i>your</i> ear changes the sound depending on direction. CMSS can only guess, so while it's close your brain may very well spot the imperfections and ruin the effect. Also, CMSS lowers sound quality which may be painful on your relati'vely high-end HD555 headphones. I choose to disable it.
One tip though, if you <i>don't</i> use CMSS then use two speaker mode rather than headphones. The headphone mode messes with the sound slightly (including the volume) but is more designed to make your bog standard cheap headphones sound good, rather than high-end ones that deli'ver speaker quality like yours.
Other than that, not much more to know. If you're feeling brave you could go to the Equalizer (EQ) and try dragging some of those sliders around. The left slider is the deepest sounds, and the right slider is the highest; the ones in-between obviously go from deep to high. I use this:
[img"]http://serve.ryanjohnwilliams.com/images/x_fi_equalizer.jpg">
It's best to work incrementally from the inside out, so start in the middle and then drag each slider up a little. Working up the right hand side will make the sound crisper, while the left hand side will bring out the explosions and gunshots. You could just use my settings and then perhaps tone some of them up/down to taste (since I use different headphones/speakers). EQ is essentially just a more complex bass/treble (or rather, bass/treble is a simplified EQ), but the added control can really let you get the card working perfectly with your headphones/speakers.

Best settings for 4k video in Premiere Pro CS6

I am trying to nail this down. I have an (Asus G20AJ Series) ASUS i7 3.6 Ghz with 16GB RAM 64 bit. I now have a drone that uses 4k video. I am pretty sure I have the rendering down but I wanted to ask if you guys can suggest options for all the best settings for setup, playback and export of the video. My drone does video of 4096x2160 @23 fps. When I went to render the 6 minute file, wow, it was going to take more than 4 hours! Is this right? Any info you can suggest would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!
Jeff

4 hours sounds about right for this source material on such a system. Better hardware may be needed to reduce the exporting time or you have to convert the source material to a less demanding format.

Best Settings for Audigy 2 ZS Recording Out to S-VHS or DVD Recor

I?m recording some very machine intensi've video & sound to outboard devices. I'm using these outboard devices so that the recording process itself does not impact the demonstration performance.
Concerning the sound out, I?m using the line & 2 out of the card, and running it through a pro level audio board (Mackie) for any adjustments & monitoring before taking the line out of the board into the recording device. When returning the sound for monitoring, I?m also running from the external device directly to the board and directly from there to either headphones or control room monitors. Thus, I?m using the Audigy for initial sound generation. So far, I've not really made any ajustments at the board other than level or balance. I like to keep things pretty flat in recording.
I?ve looked around for recommendations as to the best settings for the Audigy card from its internal software for this situation, but find no ready reference. My concern is that I have the ?hottest? signal from this device, while being very concerned with audio quality. I?m looking for both ?punch? and ?clarity? of signal.
Is there a document or source that would give me this direction? While I can move from this SB card to other more studio based cards, I?d like to keep the demo product in line with what the actual target audience would have in their machines, and be able to replicate at their workstation.
For example, does the card function best at 00% (0db) output, or 50% (-5db) output?
Or some setting in between...most likely...
Or, is there some other setting I?m not aware of?
I have what I believe are the latest card drivers and software suite, XP Pro, with every possible OS and other machine hardware update available.
Thanks,
Rich

Best settings for importing to iPod classic

Have a lot of music on my ipod that I have imported at low quality settings. Am going to take some time re-doing this so would like to know the best settings for the best quality sound. Have plenty of room and would prefer a richer sound rather than more quantity.
Many thanks.
(I assume I would put the old track in the recycle bin and then import the new track.

What are the best settings for ripping cd's in the AAC format?

I have researched and found out that the AAC format rules over the MP3 format as fas as sound quality goes with lossy formats. Example: AAC at 128 is better than MP3 at 160 as so forth. My questions are: What are the best settings for ripping cd's in the AAC format? Will I be able to burn cd mixes with the tracks I import into itunes after importing using the AAC format? Does the AAC format have VBR like the MP3 format? Is there other ripping software such as dbPoweramp and Exact Audio Copy that does a better job ripping cd's in the AAC format? Please help!

It is a matter of opinion, but I suggest 256 kb/s, CBR, and leave all other settings on automatic.
Will I be able to burn cd mixes with the tracks I import into itunes after importing using the AAC format?
Yes. Just put them in a playlist and burn.
Does the AAC format have VBR like the MP3 format?
Yes. You will see it as an option in the Import Settings.
Is there other ripping software such as dbPoweramp and Exact Audio Copy that does a better job ripping cd's in the AAC format?
EAC does a better job of correcting errors in damaged CDs, but for normal CDs iTunes does a fine job of ripping to AAC.

Need advise on best settings for FCP 7!

I am looking for some advice on the best settings for FCP 7 when I am syncing sound using pluraleyes, exporting into quicktime as one file and then importing that new file into FCP 7 for editing. I have noticed that sometimes my Quicktime files are very large (20 gb) and sometimes they are much smaller (130 MB), but I never changed the settings.
I am working on FCP 7 and shot using my Panasonic GH3 at 24 fps (which comes to 23.98). My frame size is 1920x1080. Compressor is H.264. Data rate: 8.6 MB/sec. Audio rate: 48.0 KHz. I have heard that FCP 7 does not properly deal with H.264. So, I am wondering, what should my settings be? Should I set to "Apple ProRes 422 (HQ) 1920x1080 24p 48 kHz"? Is there anything I need to know when I export to Quicktime 7 Pro in order to not reduce the quality of the video? Should I be changing my video files first before I even start to work on them?
I haven't edited in almost ten years so I am desperate need of some guidance!
Final Cut Pro 7, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

Hi Shane Ross,
Thanks for your help. So, I already synced all of my interviews in FCP 7 (using pluraleyes) before I changed the video to ProRess 422. Can I just go into FCP (in the same project) and compress the video footage, import the new video files and throw it into the timeline? Or will this cause issues? I tried this as a test and it seems to be okay but I just want to check that there aren't any issues that I am not considering.
Also, when I do compress, it seems to take forever (sometimes two hours). Is there any way to make this move along faster?
Thanks so much!

Best Settings for Exporting DVD Footage in a Movie File

Hello,
I've been trying to find the best settings for exporting DVD footage into a movie file from Adobe Premiere CS6.
I recently have been using my Magnavox DVD recorder for recording VHS tapes that I made long ago for shows and various other things, and no matter what, my footage doesn't come out as it needs to be.
Here's an example of what I did recently with my own settings:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qFV4sT7rHGs
I'm not expecting HD footage, I know these are tapes, but I'm playing the raw footage on my Xbox 360, and it looks better than this. I had to directly use the VOB files on the DVD for this, as trying to rip the files into an AVI or any other format with a DVD ripper didn't do anything, in fact it degraded the quality and made the audio not play in Premiere.
So what would be some good settings for exporting a sequence with DVD footage that is from a VHS into a movie file, preferably one that wouldn't degrade the quality?
Thanks!

First, read Why not edit mpeg http://tangentsoft.net/video/mpeg/edit.html to get a general idea of why a VOB makes a very poor source file (which is a renamed MPG, with some other stuff like menu screens)
Also, Read Bill Hunt on editing a VOB/MPG file http://forums.adobe.com/thread/464549
Once you have a DVD compliant VOB on your timeline, and understanding that a standalone DVD recorder sometimes plays fast-n-loose with "compliance" per the DVD specification, about all you can do is export to standard or widescreen DV AVI and accept the fact that re-encoding an already compressed file is just not going to give great results

Best Settings for my Dv6-6117dx

I would like to know the best settings for my Laptop. This would be when I have my headphones in and off. I heard that the sound could be better and i would really appreciate if someone would tell me those settings so i would enjoy the music and other sounds that come out of this laptop

My settings appear to be the same and I've not had any problems with iPlayer yet.
1. Ditto
2. Ditto
3. Not sure what application you are referring to here, but within iPlayer when you click Options you do NOT get a "Settings" selection. Perhaps you can explain how you got to the "Web Access point" choice?
My connectivity settings are similar but my default (and priority 1) is my home Wi-Fi/WLAN. So I would think that whenever iPlayer is downloading stuff, it is doing it through my home Wi-Fi.
And, yes, I also always get the "Allow connection to network" question when I select a programme to watch on iPlayer. Not a problem: takes one click to say yes.

best quality then use high bitrate, small size use low bitrate.

Best settings for film based PAL to MPEG2?

There's a fair amount of useful information online regarding the best settings for film based NTSC footage export etc but I'm unable to find anything regarding the best Compressor settings for the export of MPEG2 from PAL video from a 25 frames per second film sourced master.
Can anybody help?

Okay, so after reading heaps of stuff on interlacing and progressive, my head is hurting. Since my 1080i50 Pal footage captures into Final cut interlaced and setting field dominance to NONE doesn't do much, I realise I need to de-interlace in an another application. Ken Stone has a great example of what to do in compressor though I dont have the current version (3) and am not sure how to reinterpret this for Compressor 2. I had a go without much luck. I am in the process of trying to use MPEG Streamclip to deinterlace and trying getting the right settings. Will see how that goes. I also have tried using JES deinterlacer but also wasnt sure about settings etc with this application either.
Which is the best to use and what settings should I set. I wish to use my footage for watching on our macs primarily and also from our mac server which is hooked up to our hdtv. I can then convert to other formats for iphones and web etc. But my main problem is this interlacing issue. I have a nice new HDV camera but it certainly isnt looking too much better atm than my old dv footage.
PLEASE help!

Export help: best settings for 4K?

I have a 1920x1080 timeline with 4kR3D footage as well as prores422 footage in premiere pro cs6.
trying to figure out the best export settings. the best luck I've had so far is with H.264 and following settings:
HD 1080p
FrameRate: 23.976
Fiedl order: Progressive
Aspect: sq. pixels (1.0)
Profile: main
Level: 4.2
Render at maximum
VBR, 2 Pass
Target and max bitrate - both 50, as high as they will go (is this the problem??)
Use maximum render quality
Most of it looks great but there's some definite slight artifacting, digital noise in places.
Thoughts? Suggestions? Do I need to download another codec? I just need it to be as close to the timeline as possible...

Thanks Jim!
Hmm. Feel like I'm at the finish line but can't quite finalize.
Exporting a 600+ gig TGA file. Looks beautiful, but it doesn't want to play in QT, VLC etc. without freezing, going into slow motion etc. At first I thought it was a slow disc issue but other video files play off this hard drive fine.
Ideas? This problem sounding familiar?
(btw a last minute change in technical direction: Now Before it'll burn to blu-ray a colorist will work on the project in resolve and then encode (I assume) to H.264/previously mentioned suggestion.)
My export settings were:
codec: TGA
quality 100%
1920x1080
frame rate 23.976
aspect: sq pixels (1.0)
render at max depth
24 bit depth
key every frame - not checked
optimized stills - not checked
limit data under bitrate setting - not checked
render at max quality

Best thing is to use the Adobe Media Encoder bundled with Flash CS4. Play with the settings until you get the optimum settings and the import the .flv to the stage. Then publish the movie "best".

Best settings for desktop i7?

I installed After Effects CC 2014 on a computer with i74790k, Radeon 6850 and 8 GB of RAM.
The program runs smoothly but it makes Windows 8.1 a bit unresponsive, for example opening and closing folders take longer, also browsing files, opening the start menu, etc.
What are the best settings for decent editing and desktop stability?

Check your memory and multiprocessing settings. The RAM reserved for other applications probably needs to be higher.

Minimun requirements according to Adobe:

According to almost everyone who uses it. The 4GB is the bare minimum for it to run. However, you need more than 8 for it to run well. I'd consider 16 as a minimum for it to run well, but considering how cheap and easy it is to upgrade RAM, I'd put more than that in your system if possible.
