Exported songs dont sound right..

I noticed when i record something, it sounds great (to me) through garage band. I usually export to disk, and sometimes tracks are a lot lower volume that what i heard through GB. I did one track with a lead guitar that was plenty loud in GB, and could barely hear it as exported mp4

Not sure what the answer is because I'm getting the same thing. One of my songs gets this weird echo effect on my ipod and the other one the guitar sound is faded way back and I can hardly hear it although I can hear the vocals and other instruments just fine. Weird.

  • How can I export songs from my iTunes to a mail program or laptop?

    How can I export songs from my iTunes to a mail program/computer? The songs in question are originals composed by my boyfriend in Garage Band. We have full rights to them, but they import into iTunes like all the other artists songs. His hard drive crashed and I have the only copies. I have no access to my iMac for 2 months while we tour our show and we need them on the tour. We are in dire straights if we can not access these songs and the iPad will not hook up to our equipment. Plus we need to add a track to a promotional video. So how can we access our own music?
    Thanks.

    If they are in the iPad's Music app then the only way to get them out of it is by connecting the iPad to a computer. As they aren't iTunes purchases you won't be able to copy them back to a computer's iTunes via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases, instead you will need a third-party program on the computer to copy them off - there are some listed half-way down this page which should work: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

  • Can't export song files in Hydrogen drum program

    Well; I'm having audio problems again,
    so today I added my user into the audio group with:

    usermod -a -G audio wordstrings
    which eliminates the "permission denied issue"
    Then went:

    and then the audio wouldn't work in Hydrogen...
    Now; the previous time I opened Hydrogen, the audio did work, but I made a quick drum track and tried to export it and in the process of doing so, (made it to where the audio stopped working?)
    How can I get audio back and export song files?
    Thanks in advance for any tips!

    Are you starting jackd in realtime mode? If not, maybe that's what causes Hydrogen zombification. You could try to start jack manually beforehand, for example via qjackctl.
    I can offer what works for me, maybe you want to try to replicate my setup.
    I'm using hydrogen 0.9.5.1-4 and jack2 1.9.9.5-4. I start jackd via qjackctl 0.3.11-1 with the following setup:
    Generated command line:
    /usr/bin/jackd -P80 -p128 -t4000 -dalsa -dhw:0 -r48000 -p256 -n2 -Xseq
    I'm not using a realtime kernel, just stock Arch Linux, right now linux 3.12.7-1 (haven't updated yet to 3.12.7-2).
    Aside from all that, you can get great help for Linux audio issues at linuxmusicians.com, lots of knowledgable folks there.

  • Just up graded to Labivew 7.1 from 6.1 3-d graphs dont work right where can I get lattest version of cw3dgraph

    Recently up graded to Labivew 7.1 from 6.1.  3-d graphs dont work right.
    VI's using the Activex 3-D graphs developed in 6.1 worked fine. 
    Since up grading to 7.1 the graphs work after a fashion but many
    features don't. Anyone else have a similar problem?  Don't have
    the technical support from Labview, but then I figured the software
    should run as advertised. Where can I get lattest version of cw3dgraph?

    cw3dgraph just shows up at the same time as the new version of LV.
    I have not heard of any changes or fixes.
    I have seen the defaults for cw3dgraphs get lost in the upgrade from 6.1 to LV 7.1.
    I would first try going to the 6.1 version of the graph in edit mode and pop-up >>>CWGraph#D >>> export style
    save the file
    Then in the upgraded version do the import style.
    If that does not fix it post your code and tell us what is wrong. There are things you can do to the 3dgraph that work just fine as you have saved all the correct defaults. If we know what is supposed to happen we may be able to direct to what got lost in the upgrade.

  • Trouble exporting for surround sound

    I have the 6 files in my timeline as provided by the audio facility. I export each file seperatley then assign the proper speakers in Compressor. After this it still doesnt sound right.
    I've been reading on the fourm and the manual but I'm still unclear as to the audio output settings for my sequence. I've tried setting to 6 outputs in both "dual mono" and "stereo". Am I missing a step or setting somewhere? Can someone give a step by step?

    Hey guys, thanks for taking the time...
    By saying it doesn't sound right, it seems liek the mix was off. I think initialy I exported out of FCP wrong. First off, I exported as a QT movie (audio only) and I think each of the six channels was a stereo mix, which made it sound basically mono.
    I called the audio engineer to confirm the speaker selection. Then last night I exported each individual channel as an .aif , ending up with six .aif files.. Then assigned the proper speaker assignments in compressor (import Surround sound group). I then encoded with the 5.1 compressor setting. I wasnt able to play it yet because it was 2am...the wife wouldn't ahve appreciated that .
    Does this sound like a proper workflow?

  • I have downloaded an album and some of the songs where sounds are missing what can I do?

    Delete the files from iTunes. Go to the iTunes Store. Look to the right side of the iTunes Store window for the Purchased function. You can find all of your past purchases there.

  • Why do some of my songs have sound missing when on bluetooth?

    It doesn't happen to every song, but when I use my iPhone in my car it seems to be missing certain instruments, most notably on tracks that go from left to right. Instead of having it in both channels it is eliminating one of the instruments, usually on the left channel. This does not happen if it is plugged into a pair on headphones, only on the Bluetooth. Everything was fine until I started using iTunes Match, it does it on matched songs that were redownloaded to the iPhone. It is crazy annoying because it sounds like a bad demo version, that is in some songs literally sounding like half of a song.
    Facts:
    iPhone 4s 64GB
    2012 VW Passat
    Yes iTunes match is used and the songs have been downloaded to the iPhone locally
    Yes I have unpaired the Bluetooth and deleted it from the car and iPhone just in case
    Any help would be much appreciated!! Thank you in advance

    Check out this thread on a VW forum -> 2012 Passat Bluetooth iPhone Stereo vs Mono
    It looks like sound from the left channel isn't working on that headunit, the thread has a few ways you can avoid the problem.
    You'll probably have to wait for an update to iOS or your VW's stereo.

  • When i download songs from i tunes to i pod some songs dont play or they skip songs or they make 2 copies of songs  what to do

    when i download songs from i tunes library to i pod  some songs dont play or they skip songs  or they make 2 copies of songs  what to do

    *Skipping songs*
    The iPod seems to fail to play all of the occasional track that iTunes, and indeed other PMPs, are happy to play. There is probably some minor technical error in the internal structure of the file which is normally ignored by other playback software but causes the Classic to bail out.
    You may like to try scanning the files with MP3 Validator which can find & fix some internal MP3 errors.
    Some users have also suggested that completely removing all id3 tags and then replacing the information can be a solution. This can be achieved in iTunes by selecting an affected track, right/option clicking and using the option Convert id3 tags > None. Since some files may mistakenly have more than one tag you may need to repeat this action. Once you have confirmed that no tag is present you can replace the tag information using Convert id3 tags > V2.3 (I believe it is recommended to avoid using V2.4).
    Personally I have found files for which these solutions don't work. In this case the workaround is either to re-rip the tracks or get iTunes to re-encode the file, e.g. convert AAC to MP3 or vice versa and sync the newly encoded file to the iPod instead. Because transcoding will cause a loss of fidelity you should keep your original file so that if a future iPod firmware resolves this issue you can put your original files back onto the iPod.

  • My 17" Macbook Pro battery swelled up and kind of exploded. The apple genuis said it is still safe to use, that doesn't sound right.

    I am just kind of worried that it doesn't even fit. Do I need to kind of pop the expanded portion of the battery to get it to fit back in? The case of the battery has come apart and so to fit it back in I would have to press it back together. The battery is low count and had great capacity when it happened. I don't want to have to buy another one when this one is fairly new.

    ... The apple genuis said it is still safe to use, that doesn't sound right.
    I agree with you, that's not right.
    This may seem to be a little problem - fix it before it becomes a big one.

  • Troubles Exporting Song List

    Here's my situation, I want to export my song list and I have songs with Chinese words in them. I could do it before, it appeared as if iTunes saved the .txt files in Unicode, but now I can't get it to work. All that shows up are question marks where the chinese words are, which means iTunes has reverted to saving in ANSI. Does anyone know how to fix this or have a work around so I can see the song list with the chinese words? Thank you very much to anyone who helps out!

    I upgraded iTunes from 6.0.2.23 to 6.0.4.2 and the Unicode option disappeared. I am not sure if that is the cause though. I have successively tried going back to 6.0.2.23, 6.0.1.3, 6.0.0.18, and 5.0.1.x, in that order, without success. I can still view old Unicode exported song list in Notepad, so the XP OS seems ok, I just can't make new Unicode export list. Do Apple engineers read these forums? Can a kind engineer please help?
