Getting rid of dry vocals during recording

I just bought the Antares autotune evo and have been playing around recoding with it. The problem I'm having is that during recording I am hearing the dry vocal track along with the effect, it's very distracting not hearing just the effect on the vocals. Does anyone know how I can set the track to only hear the effect without the dry vocals?

Sorry, I should have been more specific about my gear in the post. I am using an m audio projectmix i/o for my audio interface. I didn't think of checking the settings for my interface, I will take a look at that. Are there any settings in logic that might enable input monitoring? If so I'd like to make sure I do not have that enabled.
Thanks for the quick reply, it is appreciated.

Issue with vocals during recording - only hear them on left side of headphones.

wanting to hear in stereo...

If you've recorded your vocals the way most people do, then they will be mono anyway! If you want to hear a single mono track in both channels (assuming that your headphones are working normally in the first place), then you either have to pan the mono track so that it feeds into both sides of the master channel, or you have to duplicate the vocal so that it occupies both sides of a stereo track. The former is the preferred way of doing it - have a mono vocal track in your stereo mix and pan it to where you want it in the stereo field.
As far as monitoring during recording is concerned, then there could potentially be a few other issues - it rather depends how you are feeding the channel out of your sound device. It's not quite so easy if it's a mono track to feed both sides of a pair of headphones when you haven't gone via the master mixer - IOW you are using a direct output from the track. That would only feed one channel by default. But if you are going via the mixer (which you normally would whilst laying tracks) then it should just be a matter of panning the vocal channel into the centre.

How to get rid of background noise when recording voice on iphone 5 ?

every time i record a voice over i hear wierd background noise can someone tell me how to get rid of it im using my headphones to record btw

Go to System Preferences / Sound and click on the Input button. You should see two items listed in the device menu: the Internal Microphone and Line In. (There may be others if you also are using your USB or Firewire ports for input devices.)
Select Internal Microphone and adjust the Input Volume control to the far left (minimum). This will mute the computer's internal microphone.
Then select the Line-In (or other device) and adjust the input level as needed to make your recording.
Good luck.

Getting rid of background noise when recording cassettes

How do I get rid of the hissing background noise when I transfer cassettes into GB?

Thanks - this is totally new to me. What sort of software do I need to clean up the noise after the fact? I'm dealing with old cassettes and a cassette player with no dolby option.
there's a bunch of applications that will clean up or "restore" noisy audio, and they range a lot in price and features. Here's a few options:
Bias makes Soundsoap 2 (around $100) and Soundsoap Pro (around $550). Bias makes some great audio software, so Soundsoap 2 might be more than adequate.

If you think you might want to use Roxio's Toast 10 Titanium Pro (around $115), it comes with a version of Soundsoap included. As long as you don't need the features of a dedicated noise removal application, it's a pretty good deal:

How do I get rid of background noise when recording a slideshow??

Im trying to record a slideshow for keynote with music soundtrack coming in time with the clicks, but even when I plug a mike cable into what looks like the mike socket, i still hear background noise such as me tapping the key board...
any tips? Is there a way of turning the microphone off completely??

Is there a better way to get rid of desktop icons?

My project has two things left: 1. get rid of desktop icons during the script 2. Ensure that windows don't open during the script.
so for part one, I have the following:
do shell script "defaults write com.apple.finder CreateDesktop -bool " & false
the problem is I can't change the desktop background picture when I use the above script. Without it, I can but I have icons.
The second issue is how I set up a handler in the event that windows open during the script, blocking the desktop-image message. I want to close all windows and keep them closed during the script. Here is what I have so far, but it doesn't work:
on exists windows of processes where the visible is true
tell application "Finder"
set willey to get (windows where the (exists) is true) of processes where the visible is true
set the exists of willey to false
end tell
end exists
PowerBook G4 1.67 Ghz Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Even if you manage to change the static desktop picture, you're going to have to find a way to disable the dynamic desktop picture that many users will have activated. This "Change picture" feature is controlled by Dock.app, not Finder. If you quit or kill the Dock, the system automatically respawns it ad infinitum. The only way around that is to temporarily move or rename dock.app, which requires administrator privileges. I'm not particularly inclined to offer my password to prank apps, are you?
If I were you I'd take a look at Salling Clicker. I know that sounds crazy, but hear me out: In the Salling distro there is a neat freeware FBA called "SEC Helper" that lets you post Growl-like notices to the user, without the hassle of relying on a Growl install. It has a full-screen option that you can set up just like a slideshow.

show screen picture data (read (POSIX file result as alias) as picture) with full screen

When opening Firefox there is an audio set of advertisements; I can't find where to stop the ad; I've downloaded. How do I get rid of this?

Opening Firefox immediately turns on an audio that contains a series of ads. I have removed the version on my computer and downloaded Firefox 5. It still happens. How did I get rid of the vocal advertisement? It does not happen when I use Safari.

Is that coming from your homepage? Have you tried resetting your homepage to see if those ads don't play? Or tried using about:blank as your homepage?

Recorded new vocal into "varispeeded" project; get rid of artifacts?

Hi,
Original bpm: 120.
All tracks recorded in MIDI except my vocals.
Bump bpm to 125 with varispeed.
I like this tempo.
Now, I record vocals with varispeed ON. They sound "warbley" and watery. I guess this was a big oops.
Is there any way to get rid of the artifacts? It seems like with varispeed on, new audio actually gets recorded at the old speed, and is then sped up.
I turned varispeed off and brought the whole project up to my new tempo of 125. I ticked the follow playback on all the audio tracks.
Do I have to rerecord the vocals, or is there a way to salvage them (like changing a playback property for just that track (like changing the algorithm for just that track). The audio track does "follow tempo" when I tick the box in the Inspector, but it's just that the algorithm is not transparent enough to be used on an upfront main vocal.

Did you resolve the issue of varispeed not working properly. I.e. when returning back to normal tempo the recprding track is at the normal tempo and correct pitch?

Help to get rid of background noise in GB3 when recording voice on Sony mic

I am recording my voice into GB3 using a Sony ECM-MS907 condenser microphone connected to the line-in input on my iMac (core duo 20"). I use basic vocals with no effects.
My voice records fine but there is a background noise underneath which I can't seem to get rid of. It is also present if I use the built in microphone. I don't think it is room noise as it is pretty constant throughout.
I have added a backing track which helps to mask it but this is not really satisfactory.
Any ideas how I can record without this apparent interference?

What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system is it running?
Classically USB microphones do not work with Premiere Elements (any version) for use with its Narration Tool. Have you found otherwise?
Where is the noise - in narration clips produced by the Narration Tool or from imported audio files added to numbered Audio Tracks and/or soundtrack?
From what you wrote, it appears that the audio noises are confined to the narration being produced with your microphone and Premiere Elements Narration Tool. Is that correct?
Under fx Effects there are audio effects that you can explore to reduce noise. See Reference Effects Adobe document for a description of the fx Effects audio effects.
Adobe Premiere Elements 11 * Effects reference
If you use the same microphone and create your narration in Audacity and import that narration into a Premiere Elements project, do you get noise in your narration?
Audacity: Free Audio Editor and Recorder
Besides making sure that your microphone is compatible with Premiere Elements, have you evaluated your narration recording techniques...how close are you to the microphone, room noise level while recording, etc.

Strange Vocal Double During Recording Logic 8!

Hi everyone (My first post ,
I am getting a strange doubling effect if i record a vocal on a record enabled track in logic. This only happens during recording in playback it plays as normal although it is quite off putting. I am using a TC Electronic Konnekt 24D Interface and this only occurs when recording a vocal with a condensor mic it does not happen when i record my turntables or any other stereo source?
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks

This is due to the fact that you're monitoring through Logic and you're hearing the direct Input as well as the track output causing the doubler effect as the Latency is delaying the track's Output. So set the track you're recording to to "No Output", enable Input monitoring and you should be fine.

The banner usually indicates that the memo is "Paused." If you go back into voice memos, touch the word "Done" beside the big red pause button, give it a name, then it will show in a list. Touch the memo in the list then touch the trash can icon that should appear.

How to get rid of duplicate records generated frm hierarchical cube in sql?

Hi All,
database version 10gR2.
I am trying to aggregated data for two hierarchical dimensions, specifically organization and products.
I am using one ROLLUP for each dimension, which would be two ROLLUP in GROUP BY clause to do the aggregation for every level of organization and product that are in included in the hierarchy.
the troubling part is that that products that have data in corresponding fact table are not always located at the lowest level (which is 6) of the product hierarchy.
e.g.
product_id                               level
0/01/0101/010102/01010201    5                           -->01010201, at level 5 , has data in fact table
0/01/0101/010103                   4                           -->010103, at level 4, has data in fact table as well
0/02/0201/020102/02010203/0201020304/020102030405              6   --> at level 6,(lowest level) and has data in fact table     we have a flat product hierarchy stored in table as below:
prod_id up_code_1 up_code_2 up_code_3   up_code_4   up_code_5 up_code_6
01010201     0     01     0101     010102     01010201      NULL
010103     0     01     0101     010103     null             nulldue to the NULL in product in level 6 for 01010201, when i run the query below, one duplicate record will be generated.
for 010103, there will be 2 duplicate records, and for 020102030405 will be none.
Encounter the same issue with the organizational dimension.
currently, I am using DISTINCT to get rid of the duplicate records, but I don`t feel right to do it this way.
So, I wonder if there is a more formal and standard way to do this?
select distinct ORG_ID, DAY_ID, TRADE_TYPE_ID, cust_id, PRODUCT_ID, QUANTITY_UNIT, COST_UNIT, SOURCE_ID,
      CONTRACT_AMOUNT, CONTRACT_COST, SALE_AMOUNT,SALE_COST, ACTUAL_AMOUNT, ACTUAL_COST, TRADE_COUNT
from (
select coalesce(UP_ORG_ID_6, UP_ORG_ID_5, UP_ORG_ID_4, UP_ORG_ID_3, UP_ORG_ID_2, UP_ORG_ID_1) as ORG_ID,
      a.day_id as day_id,
      a.TRADE_TYPE_ID as TRADE_TYPE_ID,
      a.CUST_ID,
      coalesce(UP_CODE_6, UP_CODE_5, UP_CODE_4, UP_CODE_3, UP_CODE_2, UP_CODE_1) as product_id,
      QUANTITY_UNIT,
      COST_UNIT,
      A.SOURCE_ID as SOURCE_ID,
      SUM(CONTRACT_AMOUNT) as CONTRACT_AMOUNT,
      SUM(CONTRACT_COST) as CONTRACT_COST,
      SUM(SALE_AMOUNT) as SALE_AMOUNT,
      SUM(SALE_COST) as SALE_COST,
      SUM(ACTUAL_AMOUNT) as ACTUAL_AMOUNT,
      SUM(ACTUAL_COST) as ACTUAL_COST,
      SUM(TRADE_COUNT) as TRADE_COUNT
from DM_F_LO_SALE_DAY a, DM_D_ALL_ORG_FLAT B, DM_D_ALL_PROD_FLAT D --, DM_D_LO_CUST E
where a.ORG_ID=B.ORG_ID
      and a.PRODUCT_ID=D.CODE
group by rollup(UP_ORG_ID_1, UP_ORG_ID_2, UP_ORG_ID_3, UP_ORG_ID_4, UP_ORG_ID_5, UP_ORG_ID_6),
      a.TRADE_TYPE_ID,
      a.day_id,
      A.CUST_ID,
      rollup(UP_CODE_1, UP_CODE_2, UP_CODE_3, UP_CODE_4, UP_CODE_5, UP_CODE_6),
      a.QUANTITY_UNIT,
      a.COST_UNIT,
      a.SOURCE_ID );Note, GROUPING_ID seems not help, at least i didn`t find it useful in this scenario.
any recommendation, links or ideas would be highly appreciated as always.
Thanks

anyone ever encounter this kind of problems?
any thought would be appreciated.
thanks

I downloaded the latest version of iTunes and now ALL of my songs sounf d like skipping records. How do I get rid of this or completely remove the new version that I downloaded???

I booted up my computer and opened up my usual shortcuts. I got a message from iTunes that a new version was available and would I like to download it. I clicked on "yes". It took over 1/2 hour to download and now ALL of my songs sound like a skipping record or like they are tripping over themselves. I uninstalled the ITunes and tried reinstalling my old version. I've tried EVERYTHING I could think of to get my old version back but everytime I go through the download process I get a message saying that - the file "iTunes Library.itl "cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes. I was finally able to download a version that will open but it has the same "skipping" problem. How do I stop/fix this or COMPLETELY get rid of this version of iTunes and re-download what I had??? I'm REALLY distressed.      Jim

Usually, the exclamation mark tells you that the song was not where the program expected to find it. It may also mean that there was an error with the file itself.
   If you click on the exclamation mark, it may give you a reason. You can also double click the file to make it play. If the file is not found, it will tell you. Just follow the prompts to look for the song again. It will ask you if you want to look for the other missing songs in the same folder. You can do it, but unfortunately, the last few updates have made the program blind to the songs that are there and you sometimes have to do the same process for each song.
   If neither of these help, I would suggest starting from scratch and reinstalling iTunes. I have had to do that before. Do your best to back up the library and such first.
   Sometimes a computer will rename a hard disk (Windows) and all the songs on that disk will be gone to iTunes because it will think it's looking in the right place. It can't recognize that the hard disk or partition has been renamed.
I know that this is a podcast, but the principle is the same. A dialogue box should pop up to tell you just what the problem is.
   I hope this helps!
