Equalizer, and Sound improvement

Isnt there a way i cant adjust the equalizer manually in my ipod, seems like there only are preloaded settings and none i can adjust ?
Under Ipod in Itunes there are a checkbox with "Sound Improvements" above "Sound Control", how does it work ?

No, the iPod doesn't support custom EQ settings.
The preset EQ settings are all that you can use.

I am using logic to record a podcast and using soundboard to use as a playback for music and sound effects. I'd like to soft patch sound board into logic, and still use my interface for recording audio from the other members of the podcast.

I am using logic to record a podcast. I have a presonus firestudio mobile for my interface so I can record several people at the same time. I'm also using Soundboard for a playback system for music and sound effects. I'd like to know how to soft patch Soundboard into Logic while still using the Firestudio interface to record the other members of the podcast. Does anyone know how to do this? and if so can you tell me how to do it? Thanks.

Thanks. Now, since Apple failed to provide an audio in jack for their new and improved iMacs (mine has one), all I can suggest is that you contact AppleCare, since you have 90-dqy free phone support. If need be, you might reconsider your purchase, but that's for you to decide.

Equalization and Symbol Rate

Despite my number of posts on this board...I swear that I am happy with my NI devices....
I noticed a peculiar thing today. I am using some of the example programs to do some channel characterization. The investigation is meant to be relatively simple. I am using no baseband filtering, and since my transmitter and receiver are static I desire no equalization (in fact, right now, the up and down converters are connected via a short SMA as I do some "sanity checks".)
I am interested in utilizing as much of the 20MHz real time bandwidth as possible...so I went into the transmitter code (for example, the PSK Generate.VI located in the Modulation Toolkit Example folder) and hardwired 20MHz in for the bandwidth. With no baseband filtering, the original code determines BW by scaling the symbols/sec by some number (10 I think) which would limit the symbols/sec to 1MSym/sec.
Anyway...with my 20Mhz BW...I set the symbol rate at 100kHz. Using the PSK Demod VI in the same example directory, I observe the constellation and other measurements. No problems here. 1Mhz symbol rate....OK. Increase to 5Mhz...a little noisier, but OK. Higher than that (say 10MHz symbol rate) and the MER and EVM start going way up. Note that this is independent of the scheme (BPSK, QPSK, 8-PSK...whatever).
I noticed that if I then turn on equalization (on both the Tx and Rx sides of course), that the MER and EVM goes way down....especially at the high symbol rates.
So my question....I thought equalization was only necessary if the channel response changes over time (multi-path,etc.). Why then would equalization improve things when the symbol rate gets higher? Is it possible I'm seeing the frequency/phase offset of the upconverter and downconverter LO's? Or, maybe I'm just approaching the limit of the hardware and the equalization routines actually help clean up non-idealities of the hardware at those rates? For the channel I'm characterizing, I am actually interested in seeing the effect of potential multipath, so I'd rather not use the equalization routines at this time. Maybe I'm looking at having to make a tradeoff here?

Hello Brandon,
The behavior you are seeing is expected. The equalization filter is used to correct the amplitude and phase of the signal so that after it passes though the 5610 you have a flat passband. There is a section of the RFSG help called IF Response and Software Equalization and it can be found under Devices >> NI 5671 Overview >> Advanced Topics >> IF Response and Software Equalization.
I copied the typical magnitude response of the 5610 upconverter with the equalization filter disabled (upper graph) and with it enabled (lower graph) from the manual. You can see it below. I hope this answers your question.

ITunes Automatically Change EQ Setting Based On Which Airport Express Streaming? I have two Airport Expresses running at my house. Both are connected to different types of speakers. Neither speaker set has its own equalizer, and both require a different

I have two Airport Expresses running at my house. Both are connected to different types of speakers. Neither speaker set has its own equalizer, and both require a different EQ setting to sound just right. Does anyone know of a way to have iTunes automatically change its EQ setting based on which Airport Express it is streaming to?

I'm in the same boat. I have a 6 zone amplifier running with 6 airport expresses to different rooms inside and outside the house. Each has it's own acoustic characteristics. I'd really love to be able to set each airport to equalize based on my SPL frequency sweep I did for each room.
Setting the eq in itunes won't do it as that is global plus I have many more sources for auiod other than itunes that use the AEs directly.

IOS 5 Sound Quality and Sound Check issues

So since upgrading my iPod to iOS 5 the sound quality of my music has deteriorated massively and sound check no longer works as it should.
Tracks sound crackly and audio volume will remain balanced for a few tracks when sound check is on, then all of a sudden become completely unbalanced and all over the place. My iPod is only just about useable, it's a bit of a disaster that its main feature doesn't work as it should.
Everything else in my iOS5 works as it should.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Richard.

Since I bought iPhone4 and listened my songs with "Ipod app" and external speakears I was amazed how brilliant, sharp, intense, clear, perfect bass, perfect trebble the sound was, there was no distortions or saturations ever... The sound quality was just PERFECT with the equalization OFF!!! Not remember if I had SoundCheck ON before but now it doesn't make any difference. I installed iOS 5 over 4.3.1 or so and now sound is just more like noise compared to iOS 4, I have selected all presets or equalizations but ALL are poor, maybe some presets work better with some songs but still they are poor.... Songs did not have clarity!! The volume force was like degraded, now I have to set higher volume to produce same force than before with less volume... iOS 5 max volume (100%) is like iOS 4.2.1 85-90% of volume. Difference is that iOS 5 maximum volume starts slightly to distort or saturate audio quality... before with iOS 4 sound quality was Crystal Clear even with max volume!!! In short SOUND QUALITY is DEGRADED... or perhaps I'm a very critical and nonconformist guy in terms of audio quality... this kind of degradation is quite notorious when one loves music!! or is there some other configuration I'm missing here??
Totally agree with Richard!!
At first I thought it was a problem with my phone... I used to believe iOS 5 was engineered for new iPhone 4S hardware and since it is shipped with dual-core processor, I thought my phone was short in resources!!!
Why max volume is lower in intensity???
Why equalization with the EQ Off changed?? All my songs were stored on iTunes, they must have same sound quality properties as they were when first ripped..
I hope Apple enginneers did not sacrifice volume output force in favor of saving some battery, because normally we charge battery when listening music at home with our personal speakers equipment.
I would like to understand the reasons why the new "Music App" was "changed", and why these changes have to go backwards!! That is sad... because for iPhone or iPod lovers music was always important.
thanks

How best to *BATCH* process MP3s for sound improvement using X-Fi extreme Music.

I have a shiny new X-Fi extreme music.
Does anyone have ideas on the best way to *batch* process a large selection of (16 bit 44.1) MP3 files?
A lot is made, in the X-Fi advertising, on the varied abilities to improve the sound of MP3 files. I have a large selection of play-a-long MP3s generated from old sources, and additionally converted to single channel mono. (i.e. I have extracted the LEFT channel and created a mono MP3 from that).
I would like to improve the sound of these file. I use them for play-a-long, so tonal closeness to the original is *not* important. I just want to be sure I can hear the basist (and drummer) OK - i.e. I want to emphasize their sound and disregard the frequencies in the human-voice range.
Sometime, I play these files using the PC equipped with the X-Fi extreme, but sometimes on my MP3 player.
Does creative supply SW to achieve this batch processing, or does anybody know of third party SW that can help. Their seems to be a lot of sound improvement SW out there, but it is targeted towards dealing with LP vinyl problems, and usually doesn't do batch very well.
Thanks for your consideration,
Matt

Hi?I have got some problems with my X-fi Xtreme music on Vista 32bit too. I use speaker Inspire T6060 5. chanel but there is no sound from center speak and sub woofer.Although I had change sound setting in window and creative console to 5. sound chanel but it still no sound from them.
?And I want to know about how?do I?use THX in VISTA?. Where can I download? Because I cannot use the driver that came with the CD (Xp version). I would like to say 'sorry' to all who read this, because my?English is not good. :manhappy:

Rented Movie Video and Sound out of sync

I love renting movies from ITunes , but there is this ongoing issue with video and sound syncronisation. I have Window 7 64bit with i7 processor and the latest version of Itunes. I have gone through the settings of altering the sound properties on Quicktime player and Windows to 16bit 44khz which had improved it alot.
But when watching a film half way through the sound appears to overtake the video. Would this be a setting on the latency currently set to 33.000ms and should increasing this cure the problem?
I'll try altering the settings on one more film , if that doesn't work then ITunes for me is history.

Does it behave the same way when you watch the video on your computer? What you observed is not that uncommon since some formats/recorders tend to loose sync between the video and audio.

How do you equalize the sound levels of your music

The newests ITunes interface doesn't show any way to manage your music. I want to equalize the sound levels on my libarary. How do I do it?

You should see it in part of the description once the divice is connected to the computer through a usb cable. Or you could look at the number by going on setting on your ipod touch then go to general then from there go on about scroll down until you see serial number and ther it is.

Change the player to mplayer or something in the control panel (Sound and Multimedia - System notifications - Player Settings).

If you are running Lion or Mountain Lion, the drivers are downloaded from within Bootcamp Assistant. If you are running Snow Leopard the drivers are on your Snow Leopard install disk.

I have a nearly identical problem with my Ipad 3. Mine is the left channel. I've yet to find help, but have found a number of other posts on this and other forums discussing the issue. People have tried restore, reset etc. Also, cleaning the ports with compressed air or cotton swabs. It appears to be a software issue, but no one is sure.
Along with the original poster, I'd appreciate any help.
As far as the 'level 6' poster, if you're going to be rude, please don't bother. Hope it was just a bad day.

I have m4v files that have subtitles and sound options they play fine on my computer in itunes and but when i watch them on my apple tv there is video but no sound ... why ?

I have m4v files that have subtitles and sound options they play fine on my computer in itunes and but when i watch them on my apple tv there is video but no sound ... why ? all my other videos are fine and they in mp4 format.

Mov is a container format, you'd need to look at the codec used by the movie file inside the container to know whether it will work with the Apple TV or not.

There are numerous reports of this issue happening on iPhones. It may be a glitch that will need a new update. Some find that a full shut-down and restart fixes that problem, but not always.

Cancel In App Purchase of Additional Loops and Sounds

Hi there,
A while back I purchased additional loops and sounds, but now I do not wish to download those on my new MacBook. The added content takes up storage space I can't afford. Does anyone know how to cancel the download? When I start GarageBand, it wants to download the sounds/loops, but I do not see a way to cancel and continue to use GB.

Just to clarify: the "150 sounds and 1,500 loops" option cannot be unchecked. It's frozen in its checked state.

Episodes with corrupted video and sound

I have a season pass for Chuck season 3, and i have reported errors on some of the episodes where the end is corrupted so the picture freeze and sound is just noise.
Unfortunately the support wont help, they just say that i cant get a refund (i never asked for refund, just for a new download of the file) are there anywhere i can contact when support wont help?

Hi,
What operating system are you on?
Does this only happen with the nightly or can you reproduce this on other browsers as well?
Are videos playing on the other tabs?
To confirm what you are seeing:
12 youtube pages are open by the time you get to 12 or 13 the video and audio are corrupted?
Thanks
