Delay while recording with conexant 20561 smartaudio hd

Hi!
I have a T500 20893PG, and I use the conexant 20561 smartaudio hd front port to record audio. But it lags a lot! I've tried to update the driver, but I already had the newest one. It's up to 1 second lag, and that's waaaaay too much for me.
The Windows 7 audio driver troubleshoot didn't help neither.
What to do?

Hi all
There are few causes and solutions to this problem. From what I know, SmartAudio limits the power of the devices to very minimal to prevent unnecessary damage.
1. If the problem is exclusively caused by Skype.
Go to Skype, log in. Then go to Tools, Options, General (Audio settings tab),
Uncheck: (They are enabled by Default)
- Automatically adjust microphone settings
- Automatically adjust speaker settings
2. If it affects overall
Go to Control Panel, Sound, Communications tab
When Windows detects communications activity: Choose
- Do nothing
Hope this resolve your issues.
Cheers
Peter

Conexant 20561 Smartaudio HD and 4 speakers

I have W700ds what should have Conexant 20561 Smartaudio HD. I run Win7 64bit and I'm wondering if the official software and drivers support for 4 speakers? Sometimes the audio cards support mode where for example the "mic" jack is disconected and the "rear pair" of speakers can be connected to it.
Mi problem why I'm asking is that I had many issues with the software, mic quality, audio out post processing and found out that when I leave the generic windows drivers it works much much better than the manufacturers software. And I'm affraid I won't able to undo the changes so I would like ask here before I install it.
Having support for 2 front speakers and 2 rear would make it worth to install it, but if it's not supported I don't want to taint my system with the software.
Could somebody tell me who has the coneaxnt sotware running?
Thank you Anton.
Solved!

I'm pretty sure the Conexant chipset doesn't have that feature. I could be wrong.
You'll probably have to use an ExpressCard or USB sound card with SPDIF or multiple speaker outputs.

Microphone not working - Conexant 20561 Smartaudio HD

Hello~ I am using Windows 7 Ultimate on my Lenovo T500. My microphone suddenly stopped working. Why is that? It is not detecting any sound at all in the microphone setup screen or on skype even though it is the only device and it is selected. I have Conexant 20561 Smartaudio HD and drivers 4.92.12.0 released on 10/6/2009. It just recently stopped working. No sound is detected. Help! Thanks

Hi,
I had the same problem.
My steps:
Control Panel > Speech Recognition > Advanced speech options > Microphone > Advanced...
And checked real Conexant 20561 SmartAudio.
After that action my microphone will start working properly.

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.

Cant hear song playback while recording with external USB Interface Mic in Garageband

Hi there
There must be something wrong with my settings in Gargaeband/Mac Sound Settings.
I have Garageband 9 (V5.1) running a song I have already recorded using a USB keyboard.
I want to record using my external mic and my USB Audio Interface, so
I select New Track> Real Instrument
I plug in my Yamaha Audiogram 3 USB AUdio Interface and I get a pop up stating
"Garageband is scanning your system for audio devices, and has detected a device named "USB Audio Codec"
If you want to use this device do not disconnect it during the scanning process.
Do you want to use this devise No/Yes."
I select Yes and INPUT SOURCE changes from
Mono 1 (Built-in Microphone)
to
Mono 1 (USB Audio CODEC)
I can see the signal lights lighting up on the audiogram 3 when I talk into the mic, so theres no problem there.
Also when I hit record I can record audio using the mic, and can see the levels (and the audio wave I am creating being drawn on the screen) but I cannot hear the track itself when I am recording using the mic. Nor can I hear the track or the new mic recorded audio AFTER I have hit stop.
The only way to hear the song again with the newly recorded mic track is to unplug the Audiogram 3 (Then I get another Pop-up stating
"The audio device "USB Audio CODEC" has been disconnected!
Do you want to switch to Built-in Audio or quit Garageband?"
I select USE BUILT-IN AUDIO)
Then the input source changes back to
Mono 1 (Built-in Microphone)
And I can hear the track again.
So my problem as you can see if that I cant hear the track while recording using the microphone with the Audiogram 3.
But I can record video with audio using the audiogram 3 USB Audio Inteface and mic using photobooth when I select change Sound>Input to USB Audio Codec in system preferences
It therefore assume it must be a problem with the internal audio settings of the mac/garageband.
Can anyone advise?
thanks!

In order to hear yourself while you are recording, you need to set Monitor to "ON" under the Track Info panel.
Also, what are your sound output settings? It sounds like you haven't selected the right output source.
If your speakers or headphones are plugged into your audio interface, then you need to go into Preferences -> Audio/MIDI and select your audio interface under Output as well as Input. If your speakers or headphones are built-in or plugged directly into your computer, then you need to select Built-In under Output.
I have a sneaky feeling that you are in the latter scenario, and that when you plug in your audio interface Garageband is automatically switching both Input and Output over to your interface, which means no sound output as long as the interface is plugged in.

Beeping noises while recording with guitar. Help, please.

I am trying to record with my guitar in Garageband. There is a constant beeping noise in the backround. I have changed the input to the usb port that is hooked up to the guitar. I have read many forums about this problem, but nothing has helped. I really could use help. Thank you.

Did you ever figure this out? I am getting the same beeps and am at a loss of what to do.
Thanks

Audio line in while recording with ipod touch

Looking at buying a 5th Gen touch to record local basketball games. Need the ability to record the audio live broadcast into my live video of the game so I am wondering if I can use the video camera of the touch and record a seperate audio track with the video being recorded with a line in option. I have used a sd camcorder with a line in capability playing the local radio station audio as I record but dont know it this can be done with a ipod touch. I could use the camera app or imovie app to record but not sure if separate audio track is possible with them or will it just record from the mic of the ipod touch?

You can connect a mic to the iPod via the headphone jack and that mic will be used by the video app you use for the video camera on the iPod. I do not remember if the built-in mic gets cut off when yo do that so you may have to cover the mic hole on the iPod.

Distorted audio while recording with ScreenSflow

Hi all,
when I record my screen using ScreenFlow (latest version) I get distorted audio.
I am not using external speakers and I just need to record with the "Record Computer Audio" option and nothing else selected.
How do I fix this? It makes it unusuable...
Thanks

Delay while recording DJ sets

I am trying to record DJ sets using Logic Express 8 but when I enable recording mode, I get a delay or lag through the speakers making it impossible to beatmatch the record from the headphones.
I have tried to eliminate it through Audio options in Preferences but have so far been unsucessful.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

I have one for you. How about just recording the set further down the beat line? For example, start the recording at 0:0:0:4, recording it twice. Next, cut out the part that is not working so well and then move it back to 0:0:0:0.
Good luck!

Creative Stream Recorder stops while recording with "net busy&qu

Hello.
Using SB Audigy 2 Platinum.
Every stream I'm trying to record (all youtube URLs) stops at exactly the same point in the "communicating" phase, at about 75% of the way, with "(net busy)" message until times out.
Tried all connection types (even though I'm connected via cables).
Please assist,
Thanks,
Mor

Yeah that was using Fraps.
I'm not exactly sure what Direct Stream is, but to me (correct me if I'm wrong) it sounds like Fraps is getting the audio from DirectSound, which in vista is completely software based and when OpenAL is used in the game, Fraps using Direct Stream recieves no audio, hence no sound.
I'm still not sure why 'What you hear' is very distorted and crackly, that's a work in progress

While recording with iMovie HD iSight stopped recording.

Time delay while connecting with listener

I have installed the Application Server relase 2
After I have restarted the system every thing is working fine by when ever the listener attempts to connect to the repository database, the computer CPU usaeg becomes 100% and for about 6 to 7 seconds the computer stops responding and then everything becomes fine. This problem arises whenever there is a attempt to connect to the database. I have tried using tnsping compname
but the same thing happens in that case also.
I am using win2003 server sp1
Can any one help me in this matter.

Nobody to help on this !!!!!!!

IMovie Delay When recording

Does anyone see a delay when recording with the built in camera?
While the camera is recording there is about a second delay to the time I see it on the screen.
Can someone tell me if this is normal because I don't remember having it with Tiger?

Thnx for your help and from what i can now see is that there is a delay between when i press record and when the timer at the top appears, but this is no longer causing problems with footage being missed because of the error.
Thanks,
Angus

Intermittent freezes while recording

Hello. While recording with Adobe Audition, there are intermittent freezes. As a result, there are sections in the recording where there is no sound at all. Here is an image of the wave:

I am using Windows Vista on a laptop w/ a built in microphone. This problem doesnt occur when i use other sound recording programs. I have 2GB of RAM.

Turn off all processes working in the background, such as anti-virus programs, autoupdate programs, Wi-Fi cards, internet access, etc. They are stealing resources from your computer that Audition needs.
