Clicking sound while recording

I started a podcast with some students at my school. We recorded out second one last week and while garageband records a clicking or tapping sound is in the background. ou can hear it while we record and during playback. I'm sure i is some setting I need to turn off that I accidentally hit, but I cannot figure it out. Any ideas?

If its consistent and regular, its the metronome, if it is irregular and spikey, make sure that everything near the computer and mic are well shielded and that all other apps are turned off when runnign GB. However, hearing it during both recording and playback, as SL-R suggests, must be the metonome count.

Sound while recording with audigy 2 zs plati

i have the audigy 2 zs platinum. i'm using the /4" line in 2/mic in 2 to plug my guitar into. i can hear the guitar fine until i hit the record button on my software. it records what i'm playing, and will play it back with sound, but, again, no sound while recording. i also noticed there's no "li've" sound during playback. i've checked connections, and installed the latest drivers for the card. i'm using adobe audition 2.0 to record. please help!

Sure. Selecting "Line 2" records the signal just after it has entered the main CL chip, and selecting "What you hear" records the signal after it has been through the mixer/effects DSP in that chip. It's likely that CL lowers the volume a notch to reduce the chance of clipping from mixing/effects processing. Note that the signals at that point are 32-bit, so that some additional headroom really doesn't lose you anything; all you need to do is to raise the recording volume a bit to compensate.
The card's unity settings are designed for 50% on the recording slider and 00% elsewhere (i.e. there is a 2x digital multiplier on the recording slider). You may get some useful insights from a page I have: <a href=http://pages.sbcglobal.net/hamakerd/sbsrc/ target=_blank>http://pages.sbcglobal.net/hamakerd/sbsrc/[/url] by following the Additional Information link at the bottom, and seeing my comments (under the General heading) about how I determined the recording volume settings I used in that testing.

HELP!! No sound while recording thrugh M-Audio firewire 410

I am using Logic express 7 with an M-Audio firewire 410. I have my guitar plugged into the mbox and Logic is picking up the signal from my guitar, but I cannot monitor the sound while recording OR hear anything else at all. When I unplug the mbox, however, I can hear everything that i just recorded along with everything else in the song fine. I just need some help figuring out how to monitor the sound, PLEASE!!!!

Logic always uses the same audio interface for input AND output, so I suppose your problem is that you do not have any speakers connected to you M-Audio interface. Try adding a pair of speakers to it. If there's still no sound, go to Logic's audio settings and see if "software monitoring" is active or not.

No sound while recording or viewing satalite

;( could someone please explain to me why i have no sound while recording or playing back recorded tv.i have g4 mx440 video card and tuner card.i'm not sure if i am hooking up connections properly in back of comp.need help.thank you ?(

In order to hear sound as you record, you either need to use direct monitoring on your interface (ie, route it's inputs directly to its output), or turn Software Monitoring ON in Logic (Logic -> Preferences -> Audio Hardware & Drivers) - this lets you hear your inputs while recording.

Powerbook clicking sound being recorded to audio track

I'm trying to record audio cd using internal microphone of my powerbook onto Garageband 08. When I replay the track I am hearing an internal clicking sound, presumably from the guts of the laptop. I have two questions:
First, Is there a way to minimize this?
Second, would using an external microphone stop this completely or would there still be background noise?
Please note it is basic meditation audio cd with no music going to be incorporated
Thank you all

assuming that it really is the hard drive or fan (etc), then a USB mic that you can set a distance away from the machine should help, yes.

Yamaha ES Rack -Setup to hear sounds while recording

I am running my radium controller USB to Computer then USB from Computer to Yamaha Rack. I have audio output set to my M Audio SOLO though dont have ES connected to it.
I have set up the ES to USB (in utility) and created a multi track midi in the environment.
1. Do I set the port for the multi instrument to PORT 1 or to Yamaha ES rack?
2. Do I need to do anything else in the environment other than create multitrack instrument and enable channels (I did 4)?
3!! How can I hear the ES sound while I am recording?
Thank you so much in advance..Im 15 hours in and read every forum I can find..NO answer..
By chance does anyone have the .lso file for the rack?
Mr Hep

Hey Scott
You and ALOT of people are attempting to do this, myself included.
Unfortunately at this point (to my knowledge) it's a pretty CRAP setup involved that will likely leave you frustrated.
HOWEVER:
A few things CAN be done:
IF you are getting live audio from your partner over the internet, you can re-direct that audio directly into Logic using a program called SoundFlower.
There are a few alternatives to SoundFlower, like JackTrip, and.....(the name eludes me)
(SoundFlower is from a company called Cyling 74 who also makes Max MSP. )
Once in Logic, you set your audio inputs to the track to be Soundflower. (either 16 inputs, or in this case 2)
That all being said, regardless to speed, you are still going to experience latency in the connection, and THAT is the part that will likely drive you to the mad house.
THIS all being said, I believe there are websites out there that are set up to actually do this kind of thing, (at least there WERE) but likely membership costs, and other "hidden" problems that you only learn about after you have signed on the dotted line. (Hopefully I am wrong?)
If you don't need to do a "live jam", there are always solutions like DropBox that work very well for exchanging large files quickly.
If you want to record live MIDI input from his keyboard, I am unaware of any solutions for this.
Due to the popularity of the iPad, you might want to look into the App store, and see if there is something available.
Good luck!

Saffire clicking sound when recording

I am having a problem with my Saffire. I just got it in today.
I set it up, connected my mic, played around with it to learn the controls, etc. So I load Logic Pro 7.2, and I record on track 1. I then listened to the track playback in my headphones connected to the Saffire. So no problems recording on track 1.
Having only one mic connected to my saffire, I go to track 2, and set it for input 1. I start to record track 2, and I hear a clicking sound. The audio is recorded to track 2, but the entire time recording, I hear this click sound that wasn't there when I was recording track 1.
I thought I maybe did something wrong, so I started a new song. Recorded on track 1 with no problems. Then went to record track 2, I hear the clicking sound during the recording. Playing back both tracks recorded, there is no clicking sound.
Anyone know why this is so? I'm using a MacBook 2.0GHz Core Duo, 2GB ram, recording on the internal drive. I downloaed the universal binary versions of the plugins and software for the saffire, and have the latest firmware. Running the latest version of Mac OS.
Also, when I'm in the saffire control app, I can't choose Preferences from the menu. It's grayed out. Is this normal?
Thanks,
Bryan

It's rythmic clickin.. sounds like a metronome, but I don't have one playing. I even deleted the click track. Also, I created a new song.. and I hear the clicking even recording the first track if I have the playback in my headphones. So if I have my Saffire control panel set to TRACK, I hear the clicking when I'm recording to Logic.
I didn't change the I/O buffer size, I'll have to check to see what it's on.

Eliminating Clicking Sound When Recording

How do I get rid of the annoying rythymic clicking sound that comes up when I try to record my voice? I cannot make any good recordings because the clicking is always going on in the background (and it is very loud). How do I get rid of this?

This is the Metronome. Just go to the Control Menu and uncheck it, and it'll be gone.

Clicking sound when recording Video

When I record video, a clicking/whirring noise made by the camera is recorded on the video. I'm thinking it's the autofocus, or zoom (although it seems to make the noise even if I am not using the zoom.)Any ideas on what is causing this or how to get rid of it?Thanks!

It seems the "mechanics" of the camera are being recorded on any video I take.I was hoping to post a video, but I don't seem to be able to do that.Thanks!If I understand you correctly, you maybe picking up auto focus/IS noise from your internal mic every time you record a video. I had a Canon SX50 before I got my Canon SX60 and I was annoyed by that clicking sound in my video's, if that's what it is. The SX50 does'nt have an external mic jack to solve this issue. That's why I sold mine and got my Canon SX60. It has an external mic jack that I use to connect an external mic to (among other upgrades) You can attach an external mic onto the hotshoe plate on the SX60. There maybe a workaround for an external mic for your SX50, but you'll have to ask around here on site, or goggle it. BTW...this is a Canon Site for all Canon Cameras and gear. But does'nt have a catogory just for the SX50. But you're in the right place, powershot posts.

Windows7 64 bit and Audigy 2 choppy sound while recording what you hear

Driver version I have currently installed 6.0..37 I tried to record off youtube in "What You hear" while using Wavelab5 mode and the sound is very choppy, I tried every setting I could think of but am unable to record, I managed to get one recording but tnext one with same settings is coming up rearry choppy. Another problem when browsing the support I click on "If your product is not listed above, please click here" I choose Audigy-->Audigy2 but I get nothing in the next window, I tried on FF and IE8 but nothing populates in the next field, found another way to get to the drivers but when I choose Windows 7 64 bit and choose drivers it takes me to the main support page here <a rel="nofollow" href="http://support.creative.com/welcome.aspx"]http://support.creative.com/welcome.aspx[/url]
I am on:
Intel Q2600
Gigabyte GA-X48-DQ6
2 x 2GB DDR2 - 800 CL4 Ballistix
Windows7 Ultimate 64 bit
Kaspersky Internet Security 200.
All current Windows7 updates are installed.
Oh yeah I can hear music (mp3, avi, youtube or any online source) no problem in either winamp, WMP2 or in Wavelab5 while monitoring. It's only the recording that is giving me trouble.
Cheers

<div class="DownloadDate">"Release date : 3 Jul 09<div class="DownloadShortDesc">This?download is a?driver providing Microsoft? Windows?7, Windows Vista? and Windows XP support for Creative Sound Blaster? Audigy? series of audio devices. For more details, read the rest of this web release note."?
Right where do I start...... I got the latest drivers installed, "What You Hear" was working for about oh four recordings then stopped and back to choppy recorded sound, I went through alll options and nada. So I downloaded Audacity to see if this was a problem with Wavelab and re-tried. Well same thing choppy sound and even rebooting did not help. So I will be taking EVERYTHING!!!!!! CREATIVE off my machine, if these idiots cannot be bothered to release drivers that work then I'm going elsewhere. My music creating will have to be put on hold, my 22m will still have to sit in it's box.
Creative you are all a bunch of ?$"?%$%" idiots period. You have ALWAYS (till now in my case anyway) had good drivers. Even though Windows 7 has been in RC for ages you (absolutely missed that boat, hell you didn't even get up to try to catch it) cannot be bothered to write drivers that work and your idiotic half cooked attempts at customer service to give your bread and butter (that's right your customers who keep you in business) solid drivers are an absolute joke. YOU CAN KISS MY SHINY METAL HINEY!!!!! (thanks Bender lol). I am going to my onboard drivers. Thanks Creative (the name "creative" is kind of contradiction in itself, you should look up the meaning of the word lol). Oh and I will be advising EVERYONe who thinks of upgrading to Windows7 to avoid Creative hardware.

Question for forum users: what is the best way to get rid of every bit of drivers?

No sound while recording videos

Side note: I am not familiar with Windows 7 or 8. I am a novice with Windows programs, but I am pretty handy at locating the necessary information and programs needed to complete Tier 1 troubleshooting. Forgive me if I have used the incorrect verbiage.
I have a HP Charcoal Gray 15.6" 2000-bf69WM notebook that is running Windows 8, AMD E-300 EPU HD Graphics 1.30 GHz, 4.00 usable gigs, 64 -bit and I cannot get the pre-installed camera application to record sound. The notebook is running the original software loaded by HP with the exception of MS Word. I am able to successfully record HD videos minus the audio/sound. I have checked the drivers, device manager, hardware settings, ensured that the default IDT Hi-def audio (speakers and headphones) are set to default under the playback tab (only other option available is communications headphones). The device manager does not indicate that any issues with any component.
Under the recording tab there are external mic (not selected), internal mic (selected as default) and stereo mx (indicates it is set to ready). All the test ran produce ample sound under the sound tab and the recording tab. I have since completed a few sound/audio checks and I have noticed an annoying new development. Each key stroke and movement on and within inches of the notebook emits a shallow echo. I realize that the outer edge of the monitor is a speaker and as I run my hand over and around the outer edge of the notebook, I can hear the muffled sounds you would hear if you ran your hand over a microphone. The only way to get this to stop is to mute the volume completely.
Side note, when I access the pre-installed Cyber Link YouCam, I am able to record videos and playback the clips which include the sound. Should this issue be isolated to the pre-installed camera program, how would I go about uninstalling/removing that and reinstalling it?
I would truly welcome any assistance with this concern. Should more details be required with regards to my system, I am obliged to provide them.
Thank you.

No sound while recording but I can hear during playback

I plugged my iRig HD in my macbook air (Yosemite), opened garage band and configure input output settings. While I was recording couldn't hear any sound but during playback I could hear clearly everything. I haven't got any problem on Amplitube 3. Is there any different settings on garage band?

What if I want to use mac's speakers or an external speaker
As long, as are not recording using the internal microphone it should work to change the output in the GarageBand Preferences > Audio to System Settings and to set the System Preferences > Audio > Output to the internal speakers or the internal output , if you have speakers plugged in instead of your headset.
