How to eliminate hissing background sound?

I used a boom mic to pick up an interview. However, in the background, I can still hear hissing sound. How can I eliminate it? Is there anything that the AUdio filter in the Final Cut Express can do? If yes, how?

You could try one of the EQ filters; identify the frequencies that make up the hiss and reduce them.
Or if you have access to SoundTrack Pro or SoundSoap, use the built-in noise reduction features.

How to eliminate the "Ping" sound when starting and stopping videoing

How to eliminate the "ping" sound when starting and stopping a video on iPhone. Thanks.

I asked my friends on Facebook and one came up with the answer... I just had to flip the little "ring-silent switch" on the side of the iPhone to cut the "Pinging" sound! There's probably another way but this works!

Add A Constant Background Sound.

I'm a bit of an amature when it comes to web design and especially hard coding.Im getting to grips with div tags and the css dialoge box. I able to embed a sound file on a page but would like to know how to embed a background sound which keeps playing and doesnt restart every time you select a new page. Also any advice on how to add a sound on/off button option on each page would be appriciated.
Thanks

Continuously playing music/sound on HTML websites is not a simple thing to do. You have the following options, each with their own set of problems.
OPTION #1 - Embed an MP3 player on a plain vanilla page. Invoke it to open in a Pop-Up window from a link on your home page. The player will remain open while people explore other site pages or until they close the pop-up window or leave your site. NOTE: The user must initiate the pop-up page by clicking a link. If you attempt to open the pop-up automatically on page load, it will be defeated by pop-up blockers (98% of browsers).
OPTION #2 - Put your player into a frameset. NOTE: Framed sites pose many other problems as detailed below.

OPTION #3 - Build your entire site with Flash. NOTE: Flash sites are not SEO & user friendly. Also Flash isn't supported by all web devices.
OPTION #4 - Build your entire site on one very large page
EXAMPLE: http://alt-web.com/TEST/ScrollTo.shtml
Depending on content, this could delay page load quite a bit.
OPTION #5 - Forget about continuous music/sound. Simply embed a player on the first page and let people hear it once.

How can I remove the background sound from the headphone jack for my MacBoo

for my MacBook Air problem adding music intensifier (Panasonic ST-HT1000) to give it an unpleasant sound background that sounds like a whiz, it's not so loud, but it is an unpleasant .. after a short time can get used to, but the fizz does not pass, however, believe that it is a big problem.
Further I notice that when MacBookAir disconnected from the charger, it remains quieter sound.
At first thought that the headphone jack (3.5 mm Headphone:
Connection: 1/8-Inch Jack) or wiere have problem, but tried 3 different cables, but that does change enything, the problem remains.
When I added iPhonu3GS playing - the background sound were not, then everything is OK!

Presenter 8: how to eliminate drop shadown, add outline, enlarge viewer against background

Can anyone suggest how to
- Eliminate the drop shadow that appears under and on the right side of the viewer?
- Instead, I want a thin line - or no line - all the around the viewer to outline the actual slide
- Or, ideally, how can I enlarge the viewer so it fills more of the background. In the example below, all the white space around the slide is actually "background"

Not sure how to eliminate the drop shadow around the bottom and right side of the presentation. I'd dig around in the XML of the published presentation and see if you can find something there.
as to the Presentation taking up more of the window, the shape of the presentation is based on the shape of the PPT slides. So a square presentation will always look like the image you have above. If you made the PPT deck rectangular, it may fill the screen better.

How to get rid of warbling background sound when expoerting to MP4 ?

Hello All;
I've been having a very, very strange problem since the first day I started exporting a FCP video to MPEG-4 via. the compressor. For some bizarre reason, I always hear a warbling sound in the background when I export a video - this makes MPEG-4 creation completely unusable.
This is driving me absolutely crazy as I need to create a video for the web. Everything else worked perfectly - size was good, video was very clear, only this stupid warbling sound. I did not record live video ... I only used existing video that was in the FCP project and when I play the project in FCP, I don't hear this strange sound. Also when I export to other formats like Quicktime or even DVD (Via. the compressor) I also don't hear it.
Anyone experience any problem like this before ? And can someone help me get rid of this stange background sound ?
Tim

Thanks for the info, Dave.
I think I may have solved my problem. I changed the audio sample rate to 32 KHZ and I removed the Right Audio Channel. I used a shotgun mic and it was connected to the left channel so I'm not really sure what the right channel was hearing.
However, I still think the sample rates were mismatched. It looks like the original clip's audio was set to 48 khz audio but the 48 khz audio setting of the MPEG-4 compressor setting was grayed out so I was unable to select it - Do you know why it was grayed out and is there a way to select 48 khz ? I would still like to try to set the clip to a sample rate of 48 khz in compressor when exporting to MPEG-4.
Anyway ... I'll know for sure if it's working tomorrow morning. I exported a sample clip while I did the testing but am exporting the full hour-long program overnight.

How to eliminate the delay on my X-Fi Surround 5.1 external sound car

I just bought is. I finally am able to hear my keyboard through my headphones running from my computer.
Only problem now is the delayed response. I hit a note and 2 seconds later it responds.
Any ideas on how I can get the sounds to some through in real time.
I have a 2 sided stereo plug. One end going from the headphone jack on the keyboard (KORG triton)
the other end is pluged into the line in port on my <span class="mainlink">X-Fi Surround 5. sound card.
I have elminated the keyboard as cause. Ive tried adjusting sampling rates and I still get the same delayed response.
I originally had the audigy 2nx which never had the issue.
Any help would be greatly apreciated. Thank you.

Hi Fabryc,
Please refer to this thread.

In my first iPhone 5, the speaker didn't work and people could not hear me on Speaker phone when I used it. When I used the video recording it did not record sound at all only a hissing/static sound, no voice.

In my first iPhone 5, the speaker didn't work and people could not hear me on Speaker phone when I used it. When I used the video recording it did not record sound at all only a hissing/static sound, no voice. I wished for a software fix. I did a hard reset, nothing. I did a full restore to factory settings not putting my backup on and the problem persisted.

I did every step in the link that i have been provided with (thank you), but I’m
still experiencing the same issue. My experience with Apple has been
excellent and this has been the first time I have experienced something
like this with an Apple product. I hope we can find a quick solution.
In order to get the iPhone 5 as soon as it launched (being a major fan of
Apple products!), I purchased my iPhone 5 from the UK through a friend of
mine who lives there.
My question is: can I have the faulty device replaced within Saudi by one
of the official resellers here (we have 3: STC, Mobily and Zain)? I want to
avoid the disruption, complication and expense of sending it back to the
UK.
Could you advise whether this is possible or not, and if not how should I
go about having the device replaced?
Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

Nice try! Take a hike.

Picking up background sound in room

HI there,
I am trying to capture screen and sound, but the background sound in the room I am in is coming back on the recording, just wondering how I can shut off the mic for the external sound, and only record what is coming through on the screen. Desperately seeking input here. Thanks Oh I have a Toshiba Satellite using windows 7 operating system. If any of that helps.

Wait, FYI - I figured it out by putting the tailpipe AS code in its own actions layer directly above the "Tailpipe" layer.
Thanks anyway...

Does anyone here know how to make a background soundtrack for a Tai Chi Video?

Good morning,
Does anyone here know how to make a background soundtrack for a Tai Chi Video in Garageband. I have been looking around at the different sounds and music in Garageband but I have not been able to find anything that would go with the video.
Here is an example of a Tai chi video if you were wondering
http://youtu.be/a6pJf2otwv8
I want to create something like this for a video I did for a fitness gym for a Yoga instructor and Tai Chi instructor.
Any tips would be appreciated.

Brandon,
you will not have to do any importing in GarageBand. Intalling Mainstage will extent GarageBands Loop Library and Instruments Library.
After you installed MainStage the additional loops and Instruments will show in GarageBand just like all other Loops. you will simply see more loops.
For example:

How to blur the background, CS2.

I want to know how we create this background effect on trees? Thanks in advance.

The obvious way is to shoot with a large aperture / higher focal length lens and set the depth of field by choosing an appropriate f/stop.
Assuming you already have an image where the background is within the DOF (i.e., everything's in focus), what you want can be accomplished, but it's not trivial to do, and it gets MUCH easier in Photoshop CS5 and newer because of two new functions (Refine Edge and Content Aware Fill).
Generally speaking, you can do it something like this:
1. Select just the subjects you want to remain in focus.
2. Make a new layer using the selection as a mask (Refine Edge in the newer Photoshop helps with this).
3. Fill the subjects in the lower layer with stuff that looks like the background.
4. Lens Blur the lower layer.
That sounds simple, but the devil is in the details.

How to eliminate the noise from the stepper motor

I’m using stepper motors to move a traverse on which a hot-wire anemometer probe is mounted. When the stepper motors are turned on, they induce noise on the analog signal of the hotwire anemometer, or of any other transducer, at multiples of 120Hz.
The stepper drives are P41 Series made by American Precision Inc. The P41 Series contains a power supply, a motor drive and a logic controller. The logic controller inputs are optically isolated and utilize the 5 VDC supplied internally by the drive.
An NI 6251 or NI 6024E DAQ card is used with LabVIEW to send digital output signal to the logic controller in order to step the motors.
The AI input channels of either NI 6251 or NI 6024E DAQ cards and LabVIEW are used to acquire the signal of the hot-wire anemometer. Different DAQ cards are used for the data acquisition and the stepper motor control and the noise is transferred through the laptop to the data acquisition card (analog signal).
All cables are shielded and the noise was confirmed to be conductive and not radiative.
There was no difference when measuring the analog signal with Differential or RSE.
As a test, the leads from to the drive’s logic controller were connected to the AI input channels in order to check the magnitude and frequency of the noise flowing to the DAQ card and were found to be 5 V peak-to-peak at 60 Hz.
Please let me know if you have an idea on how to eliminate this noise.

It sounds like you have a ground loop issue. If possible, try totally isolating the stepper controller from the data acquistion AI more than you already have. This could include any of the following:
Ensure the optoisolation on the control lines fully separates the power and ground of the digital output and stepper input.
Use different grounds for the stepper power supply and the DAQ power supply/computer. Isolation transformers can help here.
Use lower inductance lines for the stepper controller. This will reduce the movement of the ground.
I suspect you have probably been over the above, so you are left with filtering the noise out of the signal. Since it has high harmonic content, a simple low-pass is unlikely to work well. Your best bet is probably to characterize it and use some sort of Fourier filtering. If the relative sizes of the harmonics are always the same, you can take the Fourier transform, find the height of the fundamental, use this to calculate the sizes of the harmonics, delete them from the Fourier transform, and do an inverse Fourier transform to recover your signal. Alternately, you can use a series of narrowband filters to remove the noise, although this will also remove any signal at the same frequencies. It is better if you can improve your circuitry to remove the noise.
Good luck. Let us know if we can help you more.
