How can I record an audio sound and convert it to a ringtone?

Record your voice using iPhone (for ringtone only 35 secs or under are valid), sync iPhone with iTunes.
In iTunes the recorded voice is listed under Music as some_numbers.m4a.
Right click on the item and choose Create AAC version.
Drag the converted voice onto the desktop.
Delete the voice copy in iTunes. (important step)
On desktop, rename the some_number.m4a to something_more_intelligent.m4r
Drag it back to iTunes and you will find it under Tones.
Now select it (for sync) and connect your iPhone, do a sync.
If everything works out, it will be in Settings > Sounds > Ringtone.
Now choose a contact you want to assign this ringtone, tap Edit and add the ringtone.
Hope this helps.

How can I record an Audio Instrument (saxophone) and listen to a reference track at the same time?

How can I record an Audio Instrument, and listen to a reference track at the same time?

Are you using an external audio controller or the line-in and headphone jacks on the side of your computer? You shouldn't have an issue using headphones when you're recording through the line-in but you may want to make sure you have monitoring on and it's going to the right place.
If you're using an external audio controller, try making an aggregate device combining the controller and the "built-in output" into the same device. Go to Applications/Utilities/Audio MIDI Setup, click the "+" sign at the bottom left to make a new device and check the "use" boxes to the left of the physical devices you want to use as part of that aggregate device. That is how I use the computer's speakers or headphones to monitor my input as opposed to only being able to use the output on my audio controller.
Now that I see some of the questions on the side of this page I realize that the 13" MBPs seem to have only one combined input/output jack... That is an incredibly stupid feature. What on Earth could possibly justify that design decision? I suppose if that's the problem you're having you'll have to buy some sort of splitter (if they even make them) or get an external audio controller like an Apogee Duet or something along those lines. I would be furious if they combined those two jacks on all of the MBPs.

No. Preferably one records using direct input.
Your comment It doen’t matter whether he/she is recording the audio from the macbook or any external speakers because if the room is noisy than obviously the ambient room noise will be recorded. is pretty silly really. Think about what you just wrote.

How can I record a basic sound clip?

I am new to macs and switched from a pc recently, so please excuse me if this is a silly question, but I am totally stumped. I have been trying to record just a simple 20 second sound clip on my imac and cannot do it right. I recorded the sound clip in garageband (as I couldn't figure out any other way to get the built in microphone to record) and wanted to save the clip to upload to a website but am unable to save the file in QuickTime. Doesn't look like that can be done. I have only the software that came with the intel imac but I cannot believe that there is not a simple, easy way to record a sound clip and upload it to the web with all the wonderful software that come with this computer. I know I must be doing something wrong - somewhere!
So - what is the secret to recording a sound clip and saving the file so I can upload it to my website??
imac intel Mac OS X (10.4.8)

You can record voice soundtracks in iMovie just as easily. Within iMovie, you CAN export to .mpg filetype. Be sure to check out the Help menu once you have iMovie running for info on how to record voice clips/voice overs.
If you are going to be doing much AT ALL with sound and video clips, you would benefit by purchasing a QuickTime Pro registration. It's only $29.00 and you will be using it over and over again.

How can I record streaming audio???

HP HDX 18T laptop
Windows 7
NCH Wavepad sound editor
Hi, I desperately need help with this issue:
Is there anyway I can turn "OFF" the speakers so sound does not come from them, but STILL have audio levels active internally so I record streaming audio with my NCH software Wavepad program?
I've been trying everything .. in the Control Panel setup, I am trying to "capture" streaming audio with my Wavepad program, but I can only attenuate the "mic" levels that the actual laptop picks up .. for example, if there's background noise in the room, it picks that up - I DON'T WANT THAT! - I only want the streaming audio from a recording - not the background sounds in the room.
Folks at NCH Software keep telling me to check with laptop of Windows advice.
Wavepad used to do this easily and cleanly before (well, on other computers and other Windows versions)
If I go into Windows Mixer, and turn down Speakers, it also forces to turn down System Sounds - I do not want system sounds down; only speakers.
Summary:
I want to record streaming audio into my audio capture software.
I want to independantly cancel laptop speaker output, while maintaining audio levels for streaming capture.
I DO NOT want extraneous sounds in the room's background picked up by the laptop's mic, which then interferes with the recording.
(or is there a Windows program that will do this for me? I spent $$$ on the deluxe Wavepad software ,, but it's not doing what it used to do)
Any help, or advice will be GREEEEEEatly appreciated!!!
Thanks, Michael

Fixed (I think ....?)
Turns out there's no "Stereo Mix" option in my Control Panel sound boxes .. apparantly no one else has it either in Windows 7??? depending on sound card ...
Well, a work-around is to connect a male mini-plug "Y" into [one of] the laptop's headphone outs; then run a mini-plug cord (male-to-male) from it to the laptop mic "in" ... that leaves one unused female mini-plug on the "Y" .. which you can then run your headphones (or speakers ) off of.
Found that solution online .. got the parts; it works now.
Still baffled why there's no "Stereo Mix" in Windows 7 ....?

How can I record video without sound?

I would like to record videos without audio on my iphone? Is their a way to record videos without sound in the default camera app? If not than does any one know of any apps that can?

Do you happen to have your phone set for mute? Apparently (with the Note 3) this would also mute recording of sound in videos. Using normal recording mode? Slow mo and other modes may not record sound either.

How can you add optional audio to a converted ppt deck?

Our group is working on a project based on a powerpoint deck synchronized with audio .wav files (and converted to an .swf file). The deck is an interactive training module with a voiceover. We want to maintain the association of particular slides in the sequence with particular wav files, but we want it silent by default. How can we make it so that the voiceover audio is silent by default, but have a "play now" button embedded in the deck?
Any advice would be welcome!

There are a couple of ways you could do this:
Add a button labelled 'Play Now' to the very beginning of your slide and set the button's pause point so that it pauses your slide before the audio begins to play. The button action would be to simply Continue. So when the user reaches this slide, they can inspect the graphics or text on the slide for as long as they like and then click the Play Now button to listen to the audio for that slide.
Do not have your audio connected to the slide but to the Success caption of a Play Now button. The button pauses the slide but the audio will only play when the user clicks the button and the Success caption would have appeared. If you do not want the Success caption to be visible, make it a transparent caption with no text. It will be present on stage while the audio is playing but not visible to the user.

How can I get my audio input and output devices back? I have no sound and cannot see any of the devices in Audio MIDI Setup..??

Hi, I tried to set up a new output audio device on my mac that would have multiple outputs (iBox Twist speaker and my internal speaker) but when I went to click onto one of the iBox Twist (there were 2 options available: iBox Twist and iBox Twist Stereo), Audio MIDI Setup crashed and when I finally got that back open, I found that there were no audio input or output devices to be found. My sound is working, as when I turn on my iMac, the starting sound still plays, however the volume control in the menu bar is no longer a black colour, but grey and when I try to change the sound on my keyboard it does not change. This already happened to me once, and after 3 hours I managed to fix it very simply (switching off Mac, unplugging power cord, leaving for 15 seconds, plug power cord back in and switch Mac back on, holding Alt, Cmd, P and R keys until you hear the Starting Up sound twice) however this same technique that fixed it once before is not working this time and I am still stuck without sound. I have tried Repair Permissions, rebooting in Safe Mode, Hardware Test and checking for Software Updates. Has anyone else had this problem and managed to fix it?
Thanks in advance for any help anyone can give me!

In case anyone has had the same problem as me, I have just managed to fix this by doing the following:
Switch off Mac
Switch back on in Safe Mode (Hit power button, then hold Shift key until a loading bar appears at the bottom of the screen).
Switch off Mac again
Remove power cord and wait 15 seconds
Plug power cord back in and hold down the keys alt, cmd, p, r all at the same time until you hear Starting chime for a second time and hopefully your audio will back.

How can I record a voice over and save as MP3?

Good morning! I do voice overs. In my studio I STILL have a PC and use adobe audition. For my day to day business I know have a MAC BOOK PRO. I am going on vacation and need to record on my MacBook Pro with Garage Band.
I have successfully set up my Mic(studio Projects C1) and my travel PreAmp (MAudioDuo) to record in Garage Band. All I need is dry voice. I have recorded a track but need to save is as an MP3. The test track I recorded is about 15 seconds long but yet plays for 30 seconds...I have deleted everything after the voice but it still seems like the track is longer. I have to put in MP3 format. How do I do this? This is a nice program but looks like it is too much for what I need it to do. So, any other recommendations on more appropriate software is appreciated if needed.

How can I change default audio / sound output or remove the displayport audio option?

I upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite and while I don't have any of the number of issues that see to accompany that move, I've discovered a different one that is not necessarily related to it, but is irritating.
2014 Macbook Pro Retina
I use a thunderbolt to displayport (AKA just displayport) cable to attach a Dell monitor to my mac at the desk.
Prior to this update, the mac ignored the display as far as audio was concerned (the Dell does NOT have audio built in). But now it seems to think it does.
Moreover, it continually switches back to that Sound output in the preferences whenever I plug or unplug an audio source from the audio jack. This is Annoying!
Is there any way to either
1) set the default to prefer the internal speakers / headphones instead of the DP?
2) remove the Sound output for the DisplayPort connection (which is a false connection since the Dell doesn't actually have AUDIO)
Thanks much

I found the com.apple.audio.SystemSettings.plist and Com.apple.audio.DeviceSettings.plist, but can't make sense of either enough to feel confident in altering any entries there. here's the SystemSettings one that seems like it might have something you could change, but...

How can I read an audio file and brodcast it using NI RFSG?

Hi everybody,
I'm designing a wireless audio signal simulation system that will read an audio signal from a file and modulate the signal using NI 5671 RFSG, then broadcast it to be received at an NI 5660 RFSA.
All I need is some guidance from you guys. Some related examples would be of great help since I'm a new user of NI hardwares and software.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I’m going to
help here since Paul is out of the office, so far you have been able to use
Paul’s example to generate a signal from a Wav File, right? I have a question:
why did you combine some of the parts of the (fm-modulation) with the generate
FM signal from WAV file if the example Paul attached is already modulating the
signal?
I have another question on the part
that you are stuck when reading the file, do you want to play it back through
your speakers or you just want to be able to see the array of samples? Have you
seen the example “MT niRFSA Demodulate FM.vi”? And if so why it does not help? Here
is another example for FM modulation: Sound File Frequency
Modulated Generation using NI-567x I would like to let you know that all
those examples Paul and I are giving you are located at our website most are
free and you may find them yourself; if you have the necessary drivers and
toolkits installed you should be good to go. “The examples
available do not show what I'm searching for” What are you
searching for? What type of analysis do you need to perform?
Remember
that in the RFSA part of your project what you are going to be receiving will
be an array that contains all the points of your data not a WAV file. I will suggest trying to
run both FM example the RFSG and RFSA with no modification for a better
understanding of what is happening.
I hope it helps

How can I record what the sound card is outputting?

I have an app. that I need to be able to capture what the
sound card is outputting. That is I want to record anything that plays
from the sound card. I don't want to
have to route the speaker out to the mic in. Is there a way to
"capture" the sound as it is being played?
Thanks
Bob

As I understand you would like to record the sound (wave, midi, others...) generated by a third party application without a cable loop between soundcard output and any soundcard input (mic, line, aux).
Have you already tried to set the record input on the recording control panel of Windows to stereo mix and to use any standard labview vi (eg: snd read waveform) for recording?
