Editing sound

I want to trim a sound and then let it loop in a slideshow. The sound -- a roaring crowd at a soccer game-- should loop as a slideshow plays. As the movie repeats the sound should continue to play. It doesn't have to be in sync.
This works if I use Streaming, but there's a gap at the beginning of the movie as if the sound was being loaded over and over again.
I've been advised not to use Streaming, but if I don't, the sound is reproduced in its entirety-- there is no trimming.
Any ideas?

This might sound complex but it's really straight forward. Go here
http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/
Download the program for your appropriate OS.
Open the program once installed and drag your sound file into it. It will open and show the wave pattern drawn out. Scroll through the sound until you get to the place where you want to trim it. Simply click to select and then drag on the wav pattern to the end and then press delete. This should trim up your sound. You can then save it in a few formats. For MP3 you'll need to download the lame mp3 encoder. When you choose to export to mp3, audacity will ask you to point to the mp3 encoder dll. Just browse and select it and you can export your new trimmed sound.

Hope that helps.

Editing sound in CS3,,,?

I tried a search here for 'sound' and it came up with no results! So I'm sorry if this has cropped up before.
How do other folks edit sound in Premiere CS3?
I've been editing mine in Pro Tools for ages, but sometimes after importing into Premiere I'd like to tweak a level, or simply line up an audio effect and I've found CS3 to be really clunky and my efforts are completely hit and miss. I'll swear it was easier in earlier versions.
Have I missed something? The Adobe help file is rubbish. Is there an on-line tutorial somewhere? It really is about time I got to grips with this.
(Is CS4 better..?)

There are
several tutorials in the PremiereProPedia that will quickly show you how audio works in Premiere Pro.

Mac powerpoint 2011. Can't I edit sound effects

Mac powerpoint 2011. Can't I edit sound effects? The slides won't move as I have ordered them because the sound effect lasts longer. Previously (in Office) I have been able to trim the size. This throws off the entire presentation. Any ideas?

If you're still looking for the iLife Sound Effects, they've been moved. In fact, they're downright impossible to find unless you know where they've been hidden.
They're now stored inside the iMovie app itself. To access the files, go to the Applications folder and right-click on the iMovie app icon. Select "Show Package Contents", twirl open "Resources" and scroll down. You should find sound files in three folders: iLife Sound Effects, iMovie Sound Effects, and iMovie Theme Music. I recommend that you NOT move any files out of these folders, but simply copy them to a new location.
Hope this finds you well.
Cheers!

Combining and Editing Sound in Titles Clip

Okay, now that I actually managed to capture the sound I wanted from my camera to my computer I am unable to find anything in the iMovie tutorial that explains how to get the sound and titles together AT ALL, much less exactly the way I want. How do you edit sound to coordinate it with picture? For instance:
1. Because of the nature of the capture device, I had to capture sound at the beginning and end of the clip that I didn't want to ensure I got ALL the sound I DID want. As a result, I want my opening titles sound to BEGIN at 1:23:28 and END at 1:59:17. I think the clip is almost exactly this length. If it's longer, and there's black screen/no sound for a few seconds at the end, FINE, but I don't want extra sound at the end of the audio clip spilling over onto the picture (titles). So how do I make sure that JUST this part of the clip ends up on the titles without recapturing it trying to cut it closer, and
2. How do I get the sound to play at the same time, in the same clip as the titles, at all? What is the exact process of putting picture and sound together?
Thanks for any replies. I'm off to work on the parts I do understand.

Although I can't find anything about combining picture and sound in the iMovie Tutorial, I did find something about shortening clips:
Keeping Only the Parts You Want
Edit clips in the timeline view
1. Click the Timeline Viewer button in the iMovie window.
2. Select a clip from the iMovie timeline.
3. Move your pointer to near the end of the clip and notice the pointer change to two arrows. This means you can trim your clip.
4. Drag your pointer toward the center of the clip and notice that the duration of your clip shortens as you move further to the left. You can see the new ending point in the clip viewer.
5. Stop dragging when you find exactly the frame you want to end your clip. Notice the right edge of your clip now displays a straight edge rather than rounded corners indicating an edit has been made.
6. If you change your mind and want to restore the clip to a longer duration, simply drag the edge to the right.
7. Repeat this process with the other end of the clip.
8. Save your iMovie project.
I don't see why in the world this wouldn't work just as well for a sound-only clip as a picture-and-sound clip. The only way I see of getting the out-of-sequence ones I want in the order I want is to either duplicate the clip and then shorten both clips, or delete the existing clip and recapture it as two clips--then shorten each to the length I want and somehow run them together in sequence. (Copying it into two clips would be faster and easier for me, but is it possible and does it make a difference?)
What I don't know is how to make it understand to put the three clips (these two shortened ones and the third I want to follow it) into ONE sound sequence, and then make it understand to run THAT sequence with the closing titles! How do I get each sound clip together with each other, then make it run together with each title clip I want? This has me at a loss. It would REALLY help if I could do this like TODAY! I will be DEEPLY GREATFUL to whoever can offer a CLUE!

How do you edit sound in multicam (cs5)

Hi all,
I always see people raving about multi cam editing for wedding speeches but on the 10 or so occasions Ive given it a try I just give up instantly due to the fact that I feel so limited in what I can do with the audio.
I would use it for wedding speeches where I have 8 or 9 audio tracks, editing in 5.1 and I need to stop parts of the track distorting occasionally or removing sections of sound, boosting quiet parts etc (as the dynamics effect with limiter ticked and set to -1dB only seems to quieten down the rest of the audio from that point onwards if it severely needs to kick in), however as soon as you enable multi cam and start editing, your audio appears flattened into one track.
Please tell me what I'm doing wrong? I KNOW it must be possible but I just cant work out how.
Thanks

Or...you can just nest the video only and leave all your tracks right there with the video. Although I'm not sure about CS5 as I use CS6. Either way works. For me what works best is to nest the video ONLY by alt+selecting the video clips, right-click and choose NEST...then, right-click again and choose Multicam>Enable. Now you have the video and all the audio tracks on one timeline. I find that easier to deal with personally but to each their own. Unfortunately, there's a bug and the audio meters/levels don't work while in the multicam window so you can't monitor the levels. Feel free to submit a bug report to add your name to the list of people who'd like to see that get fixed. Hope this helps.

As3 script to edit sound files -

A wav or mp3 file will be taped or various. Is there any script to edit these files in batch ie: to Trim the beginnings ie: no sound parts. Or would I have to use a sound editor. As I say I don't want to do it manually. This sounds like a stupid use but it's important as I have children taping themselves and can't use a 3 party product to edit. Perhaps AIR has something in an API.
Cheers

Can this be done with differing lengths of white spaces ie: Does the class detect where the white space is and how long it is or do I have to tell it which means it's no good to me.

Premiere Pro will not open Audition to edit sound track - Why?

This was a problem in CS6 and was fixed in the first version of CC. Now that Premiere Pro has had an update, the right click link to "Edit in Adobe Audition" is broken. In CS6, it didn't even show as an active link. In CC it shows as active, and when clicked on, saves the audio track as "soundtrackname Audio_Extracted" then does nothing. I can't go back and forth when trying to fix the sound. Perhaps this is a bug that Adobe re-introduced in the program?

How to edit sounds in iTunes songs on GB?

Hello, I'm trying to figure out how I can change the sound of my itune songs in my garage band.
I already know how to place the Itune tracks into my gragband, but I would love to know how to add bass onto some of my songs?
Change the equalizer? and etc? I want my songs to have more of a deep echo type sort of sound but don't know how? How to change the volumes for each song? I hope you understand what i'm saying and highly aprreciate your help.

I Have found out (by myself) -___- To do what I was looking for, All I simply had to do was click on Master track, then edit and from there I could choose the adjustments I wanted to make for my songs. Such as bass reducing, Echo, Reverb and other track affects. Thanks for nothing I guess.

Editing sound in PP CS5 using trial of Audition CS5.5 not possible??

I have PremierPro CS5 and downloaded a trial of Audition CS 5.5. The option "Edit in Audition" in PP CS5 is greyed out, so I cannot test the sound editing interaction between the two PP and Audition. What is wrong? Is it not possible to use PP CS5 with Audition CS5.5, is it not possible in the trial version of Audition, or am I doing something else wrong...?
Greatful for your time and help!
Håkan

The connection only works if the Premiere version number is the same as, or higher than, the Audition version. So, in my system PPro CS5.5 to Audition 3 is OK, but PPro CS5 to Audition 5.5 is not, as you have found.

Edit sound files

I'm looking to get a digital sound recorder to capture my grandparents' stories. What software and formats are best to edit the files, so I can separate the 20 second stories from the chit-chat and miscellaneous discussions?
I recently learned to use iMovie, but am not sure how to edit pure sound files, nor which format is best to record. Does anyone have advice:
Which features are best for Mac compatibility?
What formats to record in?
Which software to use for basic editing?
Thank you very much!

I've used the free, open-source [Audacity|http://audacity.sourceforge.net> for that in the past.

Project file size bloat when editing sound media in Audition

Whenever I clean up a voice-over clip in using Audition, the size of the clip in Captivate remains about the same, but the project file size increases by about the amount of the original clip.
For example, the size of the original sound clip is 1098.90. The size of the edited clip is 1103.98. The size of the original project file is 5416, but the size of the saved file with the edited clip is 6496. I'm using Captivate 7 and the latest version of Audition CC. I've cleared my cache and removed any unused media.
All I am doing to the clip is some noise reduction and EQ tweaking.
It seems like Captivate is saving both versions of the sound clip.
UPDATE:
I've also tried saving the sound file as a .wav from Audition into a folder and then updating the sound clip in Captivate. Same bloat problem.
I have also copied the slides into a blank project. Again, same file size problem.
Any ideas?

IMovie can't edit sound for a portion of an event

Is there anyway of editing just a portion of the sound track from an event? I coughed during a video, and rather than have to redo all 12 minutes, I'd like to just edit the sound out for that portion, then put in a picture (my next effort) so you can't see me coughing either. But when in sound edit mode, iMovie auto-selects the entire event, so any edit I make, like reducing the volume, is done to the entire event. When I select a portion of the video, then try and invoke sound editing, it just won't happen. This just plain doesn't make any sense to me, but I don't know anything about sound/movie editing, so maybe this is just a limitation of iMovie.
Any suggestions?

We-ell, it probably seems to AppleMan, and possibly others, that you DO really need "..10 hours of videos or 50 pages of tutorials.." ..and a good place to start is Apple's own iMovie Tutorials; there's a whole pile of them here: http://www.apple.com/ilife/tutorials/#imovie .
You say "..I finally figured it out. You can't take the whole event into the project.." ..but you CAN. Just click anywhere on an Event (..that's any single clip in your 'Events' window..) then - as is standard throughout Apple programs - hold down the Apple ('Command') key and press the letter 'A' ..and that "Selects All" of that clip.
You can then drag all that clip into your 'Project' window. (..Dragging, I find, is far simpler than, as you say, "..select the event, then click on the Edit button to move it to the project"..)
But you asked about audio editing. There are several ways to do what you want:
You said "..I'd like to just edit the sound out for that portion, then put in a picture (my next effort) so you can't see me coughing either.." ..If you've already got, in your Events clips, a picture - or video clip - which you want to use to "cover up" your coughing, select that Event and drag it on top of the section of clip which you want to obscure in your Project window. When you release the mouse button to drop that clip on top of the clip which you want to obscure, here's what iMovie's Help file says will happen:
(..You have looked at iMovie's Help pages, haven't you? ..Search under, for example, 'Replace'..)
Anyway, when you drag a clip from Events onto a clip in your Project and release the mouse button, this little menu pops up:
..You can then choose what you want to do with that "cutaway" clip, such as "Replace at Playhead" or "Cutaway". Using it as a "cutaway" (..temporarily cutting away to that different shot, and then coming back to the original..) will then position it above the original clip. You can then click on the little "cogwheel" icon at the start of that cutaway clip, and then, in its drop-down menu, click on 'Audio adjustments', and choose 'Ducking: Reduce volume of other tracks..' and that will reduce - to zero, if you like - the sound from the underlying original track for the duration of that cutaway, so that your coughing disappears.
A second - and maybe simpler? - way to remove the coughing is to simply Split the video clip which has the coughing: Split it so that the sequence with the coughing ..let's say it's 3 seconds long.. becomes a separate 3-second clip. Then just click on the "cogwheel" icon at the start of that 3-second clip, and choose - as before - 'Audio adjustments', and then just drag the clip's audio level down to zero. So that you're not left with no sound at all, copy a short section of audio from elsewhere (..how? it's in the Apple Tutorials..) and paste it underneath that 3-second clip, or add music, or add an audio clip of general nondescript "ambience".
AppleMan did his best to help you. You might have offered him some thanks instead of just stamping your virtual foot and saying "..I don't need to be referred to 10 hours of videos or 50 pages of tutorials.."
He offered you help, and you spat at him. If you try a little courtesy next time; it'll get you much further.
(P.S: I see that AppleMan already succinctly explained to you exactly how to do this in your other question called "Can the sound track be deleted from a small portion of video?" ..!)

Dm4 beats edition sound quality

hi
just got a new dm4 se3170 beats edition .
Connected it to external speakers , and the sound isnt good & clear enough.
a friend of mine has dv6 , also with beats audio, and the sound is much more "open" / "clear" / "round" and "full" .
you can hear every note, every instrument very clear and warm. perfect sound.
its not the same with my notebook
i compared both notebooks on same speakers, same songs, with same beats EQ settings,
and it just a different sound..
can it be that the sound of dv6 is much better than the dm4 beats edition ? is there a significant hardware difference ?
i don't know if that's how it is (if yes , very very disappointing), or that something is wrong with my notebook...
bought it mainly because of the sound and beats audio.
by the way ; tried to uninstall and reinstall the driver, didnt make a change.
will appreciate getting help from one of your sound experts.

Hi, thanks , did most of the things listed in the document link, but it didnt help. no problem was found.
sound is still not OK.
no dynamic range,
its like sounds are getting mixed together,
the high tones are very very high and dominant. its like i have no mid tones, and also bass very week and not sharp.
at the sound window i have speakers & headphones - as default device, and communication headphones - as ready. is that how it should be ?
must say again i tested another notebook (dv6 of a friend) with the same speakers, with same beats EQ settings , with same music and it was perfect. so its clear i guess the problem is at my hardware and not my beats settings or the speakers.
IM reminding that it my model dm4 beats edition i have only one jack for both speakers and mic. is it possible that the problem related to this thing ?
what should i do more ??
IM desperate.... waiting for more help from you..

EDITING SOUND/MUSIC in SOUNDBOOTH or PREMIERE PRO CS3

I have a question that has been posed to me about sound/song/music editing. How can one either in SOUNDBOOTH or in PREMIERE PRO CS3 - edit the playback - so show beat by beat - is that possible?
I'm not musically inclined. If I want to cut/edit a sound and match it with a similar of another - how can I go about that?
please email me as i'll forget to check here for replies - [email protected]
thanks for any suggestions. I'm a newbie at sound.

You can use either one for what you're talking about.
You will find links to many free tutorials in the PremiereProPedia that will quickly show you how things are done in Premiere Pro.
