How do I make my audio better when recording videos?

what is the best way to enhance audio on videos I make with my iPhone 4?

      Thanks, Bobby
     All good advice.
     I went and checked out the link you provided, and started salivating immediately. But $200 is too much for me right now. Looked at the lav (what does that mean?) mic adjacent to it-- lovely, very portable, and almost affordable. I registered, and created a wish list. I think my wedding anniversary or something must be coming up soon...
       I was thinking about my barely-there audio today, and just for the fun of it checked my volume button. I NEVER turn it down. Never. But it was, by about half. Does this have any effect on recording, or just ringing? (Can you tell I'm almost totally techno-ignorant?)
       Something else occurred to me too. When I was shooting, twice so far (and I am cringing writing this), I was talking really low the whole time. Last night, cuz my hubby was asleep in the next room; this morning, because I didn't want to scare the birds I was videoing away...   uh.....   Well, DUH.
       Actually, I have already bought one of those little capsule mics, found it on Amazon. IT WON'T FIT ON MY PHONE WHILE THE CASE IS ON. And I am scared to death to take the case off! The thing's made out of glass, for cripes sake, and I am a CLUTZ.
       Thanks again!! I'll be coming up with plenty more stupid questions for quite a while, I'm sure

  • How do i make my audio link to my video when I drop it down

    When I drop my video down from the viewer into the sequence the audio isn't coming with it. When i play the video in the viewer I can hear the audio and it is there but they seem to not be connected. Anyone know how to link the two? I am using final cut express also.

    The Link/Unlink toggle button is located near the upper right-hand corner of the Timeline window.  If the clips are already in the Timeline, select the Video and Audio clips that you want to link and hit Command l (lowercase L).

  • How do I fix the Audio Delay when recording Voiceovers?

    I've been recording voiceovers in Final Cut Pro X and noticed that its a huge delay in the audio when I play it back. The recording is like a second or two behind making the voiceovers sound wayyy off to whats actually goin gon in the video. Is there any fix to this or is this a hardware issue? I'm running Final Cut Pro off of an External harddrive since my Macbook Pro can't handle the program as well. Its a 2009 17 inch. 4 Gigs of ram....150 Gigs of storage space left running on Mavericks. Any info is appreciated.

    The VO or the video is a connected clip. You can trim it and move it according to your needs. Or do I misunderstand the issue?

    I realised that you just need to go to System Preferences > Sound > Input > and uncheck 'Use ambient noise reduction'. mmm answered my own question.

  • How do I make the audio files on my site download?

    Hi
    In my site there are links to some audio files. When click the links in chrome or firefox, the audio files start playing straight away. In opera the files download. Internet explorer opens the files in windows media player. How can I make it so that when they are clicked they always download, instead of playing inside the browser?
    The only answer that I can find, so far, is zip files. I am reluctant to use that method because zip files compress and compression can do funny things to files.
    Can anyone suggest anything?
    Thanks

    I am reluctant to use that method because zip files compress and compression can do funny things to files.
    Fear not. The zip compression is not a 'lossy' method, it's a simple statistical compression method (when three or more bytes are found adjacent in the file, they are replaced by two bytes, one indicating the repeating value, and the other indicating how many repeats), so the files will decompress exactly like they were before. A good example of a lossy compression would be when you create a jpg image.
    Alternatively, you could force a download with a little server-side scripting. Google "force download". You would need some proficiency in server scripting to use this method, however.

    When I am connected to my home wifi, it says I am connected but the 4G icon doesn't go away.  How can I make that go away when I am connected?

    When I'm at my home, and on my Wifi, my 4G icon on my LG G2 is still present. No big deal. If the bits can flow via WiFi, that's what they'll do.
    You might try (if you really MUST shut off the cellular radio):
    Settings, Network Connections and More networks. Select Mobile Networks and uncheck Mobile data and data roaming.
    Not sure if that will work - but give it a try.

    In windows 7, how do I make firefox start automatically when I turn on the pc

    That worked, thanks. When I turn on the pc, I almost always go to the internet before anything else, so this eliminates one step. It doesn't seem to save any time, however, but it is easy. If anyone else wants to try this, it looks like it's very easy to undo if you change your mind.

  • How would I make it so that when "deleting" an image I can make it so that the delete key does it or a button I put on the application?

    How would I make it so that when "deleting" an image I can make it so that the delete key does it or a button I put on the application?
    I want it so that I can use either a button on the designer window or the delete key. I know how to do the or part but the trouble I'm having is coding the button in.
    if (LastImageClicked != null && (e.Key == Key.Delete || Button))
    This is the code that I have in the format I'm looking for I just don't know how to do it. Thanks for your help!

    There are a number of things which are unclear about your question.
    I'll tell you one way to approach this though.
    Handle Window.PreviewKeyDown.
    <Window
    Window.PreviewKeyDown="Mainwindow_PreviewKeyDown"
    Code behind
    private void Mainwindow_PreviewKeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
    if (e.Key == Key.Delete)
    File.Delete("p001.jpg");
    I don't know enough about what you mean by LastImageClicked  but you need some way of knowing which path you are going to delete.
    Then you might well have a problem if it's showing in an image control.
    You will need to copy the picture off disk into a new bitmapimage object.
    If you just do
    <Image Source="p001.jpg"
    Then that image will grab the file and you won't be able to delete it - you'll  get an error.
    In my experimental code p001.jpg is set as content copy always so it ends up next to the exe in the bin when the solution compiles.
    You would probably want a full path to a file there.
    Hope that helps.

  • How do I seperate the audio track from the video and save it to a CD in Premiere Elements 13?

    How do I seperate the audio track from the video and save it to a CD in Premiere Elements 13?

    Binbashi
    You can separate the audio track from video and save it to a DVD disc within Premiere Elements but not a CD disc.
    To do save to the audio to DVD disc, you do not have to separate linked audio video, just use the export Publish+Share/Computer/Audio and set Presets to the wanted format (AAC, AIFF, MP3, or Windows Waveform (WAV).
    You will not see Audio in the choices since it is at the bottom of the list of choices under Publish+Share/Computer/. You will need to use the thin scroll bar to the right of the choices to scroll to it.
    If you need information on selective export of Timeline content when dealing with more than just this one file on the Timeline, please let us know. If you are trying to produce a CD for listening in car or CD player elsewhere, please let us know.
    Looking forward to learning of your results.
    Thank you.

  • Any way to boost audio input when recording?

    Hi; I have been recording speech interviews with Audio-Technica mics on a ProTools set-up and they've sounded great.
    I've recently tried recording using the mics in Garageband using a M-Audio Mobile Pre USB, but the audio levels are always too low unless the subject is an inch or two from the mic, which isn't the best way to get quality audio.
    Is there any way to boost the audio input when recording in GB or any other tricks people know of?
    thx, Charlie

    I'm actually having the same problem, except I'm recording straight into the computer (no interface).
    I tried using an MBox, but the computer won't even recognize it...(if anyone's got suggestions for why that is, I'll gladly take them...).
    My main question is the same as Charles's, however - how come the input level is so soft when recording using the "Built-In Input" (where I can use a mic, and have mobility) as opposed to the "Built-In Microphone"?

  • I want to be able to use airplay to stream audio to another iOS device, and then use that audio stream to be used when recording video instead of the built in microphone / microphone input. Is this possible?

    I want to be able to use airplay to stream audio to another iOS device, and then use that audio stream to be used when recording video instead of the built in microphone / microphone input. Is this possible?

    A third-party app probably cannot obtain a stream from another app. To the best of my knowledge, such a capability is not provided in the software development kit, apps being "sandboxed" from each other and so allowed to communicate only in very specific and limited ways.
    I'm not completely sure what you mean by "limitations on video capture". An iPhone, to the best of my knowledge, can natively record video only through it's built-in camera, and audio while doing video recording only through the built-in microphone or mic/headphone jack. There might be a video recording app that would allow audio input from an external device connected to the dock connector, but I'm not sure.
    Regards.
