Imported audio: sounds like cartoon mice 48KHz vs. 44.1 KHz vs. .mp3

Does anyone know if the following can be fixed:
I inserted some new slides and imported new .mp3 audio clips into CP4. When played slide by slide the audio sounds as I would expect. When published, however, the audio on the new slides play at about double speed to the others. The v/o artiste now sounds like a cartoon mouse.
So what's different?
I used a different recorder. I recorded at 48KHz and rendered at the same (in Reaper), before converting to .mp3. Yes, I know I should have used 44.1 but the file was going to be converted outside of Captivate in any case to .mp3 (and I forgot).
In the audio Manager I can see that the 'old' files that play OK were imported as .wav. Captivate can convert these. The .mp3 files appear as 48KHz sample rate, even though I coverted to .mp3.
I have a feeling I may need to re-record the clips to 44.1. Or is there are a way of converting 48KHz files to sound OK at 44.1 KHz? Any ideas?

Hi,
I am not sure if yo are experiencing this issue in Adobe Captivate 5 version or older.
If you see this issue in Captivate 5, then this issue is handled in an upgrade patch available -
Please read more details and download the patch from here -

This should solve your issue if you are on Captivate 5.

My Webcam is not recording correctly. When recording directly to youtube, the audio sounds like a robot. It was not doing that when I first got my new MacBook Air last month. What do I do to fix it?

My built-in Webcam is not recording correctly. When recording directly to youtube (upload), the audio sounds like a robot. It was not doing that when I first got my new MacBook Air last month. What do I do to fix it?
I have tested it over several days with different internet connections...and have done it with another notebook computer on the same connection and it the video uploaded and recorded fine. I can also use the video webcam with Google Hangouts and it records and works fine. So I know the problem is not internet connection...and apparantly not even the webcam or mic.

Try using Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings.

When I record video on my iphone 4 the audio sounds like it is muffled and is not as loud as it should be?

when I record video on my iphone 4 the playback of the audio sounds like it is muffled and is not as loud as it should be? I have had the phone for 2 years and the last time I had used it to record a video was in July of this year. The sound came out crisp and clear. Now when ever I play back videos the audio is muffled and at a lower volume than it should sound like. I have the volume set all the way up when I record and my hands are not covering the microphone and/or near to affect the audio playback.

It worked!!!!! Thank you. I didn't know there was a microphone at the top. I knew the hole was there but I didn't know what it was for. Thank you so much. \m/ ROCK ON!!

Import imovie audio - sounds like donald duck...

Hello,
I imported an imovie soundtrack that I made recently (from my camcorder). The audio track sounds high pitched, donald duck like. what am I doing wrong ?
Also, I want to process the imovie track to remove some echo that was present in the room during recording. What is the easiest method to reduce/remove this - if possible?
Thanks - Max

(from my camcorder). The audio track sounds high
pitched, donald duck like. what am I doing wrong ?
The pitch and tempo issue sounds like a sample rate problem, but I thought iMovie audio was recorded at 48K which would make it play lower and slow in GB. For background on this:

You can play with the Gate effect to cut out software sounds, but that would only be during the silent passages.

Audio sounds like broken record

When I open the project, some audio clips will be fine for the beginning, but at some point will have one second repeated over and over again for the remainder of the clip. When played back, it sounds like a broken record. The actual files are fine, when I check the clips on my hard drive they're normal. But when I open the project, they are corrupted. And it happens to different clips each time I open the project. Even when I import the same file again, it will be corrupted in the same spot. Any ideas?

Try updating your audio driver.

Imported Audio sounds "tinny" and "low"

Hi, I have an issue that I really need help with fast! (Don't
we all?) I've used professionally recorded .wav files that sound
absolutely wonderful--until I import them. Actually, they sound
great when listened to via the audio tab in the caption box, but
not in the actual movie. I have edited the files in terms of
breaking them up into shorter chunks to correspond with text on
various slides. This issue varies from movie to movie--and I can't
discern any differences among settings etc. Help! my client does
not like!
Regards,
Cathleen

I've seen the same thing - but it wasn't imported audio, it
was audio created in Captivate itself. Matter of fact, it occurred
in one of the sample movies I created to display Jesse Warden's
Captivate Player ... and it sounds exactly lilke that. I remember
when doing the audio that I had stopped Captivate, then restarted
the recording of audio when I noticed it.
It only happened on slide #1 because I caught it, and reset
the audio test dialog from scratch, then recorded all other slides
(audio) over again . . . I didn't realize until I had published it
to the web that I had forgotten to re-record slide #1.
If you want to hear the effect
use ths
link, and use the CPlayer to go to the "Edit View" movie .
The trick was (for me) to shut down the movie, then re-open
to force Captivate to re-check audio volume level ... that fixed it
for me so I didn't go any further into the settings . . .

IMovie 10 - audio sounds like it's underwater

Just upgraded to iMovie 10 from 2011 version (iMovie 10 is not in the product list yet, so I'm posting here in hopes of getting some help). I like most of the new iMovie, but having a terrible time with audio after export. When I go to SHARE > TO DISK or ITUNES, the output file sounds like it's underwater or in t a tin can maybe . Hopfully it's a simple fix that I haven't stumbled on yet, but I'm wondering if anyone else is having this issue and how to fix it. The sound is correct when played in iMovie 10. Thanks, Kevin
My CPU specs if that's helpful:
- OSX 10.9
- 2.8 GHz intel Core i7
- 8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3

I've just discovered this issue, too. Using m4v file created using handbrake from a DV AVI file. Audio sounds fine if video is played in VLC, but sound awful in iMovie sounding like there's a strange echo type issue.
cheers

Based on similar posts it sounds like a driver issue. I don't want to install the wrong driver, naturally. Thanks.

Audio sounds like "Alvin & the Chipmunks"

I have Toshiba Satellite L445D-S5976. I've tweaked and tried repair on the audio, but it says nothing is wrong, or can't detect problems, yet everything still sounds like High Speed sounds.
Anyone that could help, it would be greatly appreciated.

Audio sounds like a chipmunk

Once in awhile while recording audio and a demo at the same time, the audio will speed up and sound like a chipmunk upon playback. I have been using both Windows 7 and Windows XP and both seem to have the same issue. It mostly occurs when clicking from one function of a website or clicking within a software program while demoing. Any ideas as to what the cause might be?

Hi,
Could you please tell the version of your Captivate? any additonal details regarding recording mode, settings, devices etc?
Please try-
-- to use a different external device to record again, I believe you used same device on both XP and 7 machines?
-- record just the Audio for a few slides -- Audio -- Record to Slides/Project
-- Do a test record for a different application as well, just to confirm, it has nothing to do with website.
Thanks!

Headphone audio sounds like it's coming out of a hole?

Two days ago, I downloaded a radio app to my 2nd gen iPod touch. Sounded fine for a while, then suddenly faded. I could hear the music just fine, but the voices were so quiet I could barely hear them. I switched over to regular music and it did the same thing. I fiddled around with my headphones, thinking they were dying, and got it to work by pressing the jack into my ipod hard, putting pressure on it. I figured it was just old headphones and went and bought another pair.
But it's still doing it. Brand new headphones and they only work when I put a crushing pressure onto the jack. What's going on here?

I can't be sure, but it sounds like you have a bad contact in your headphone port. I would take it to an Apple Store to get a new one or call AppleCare to have it replaced.

T430 audio sounds like crap

the sound quality is junk its as if i am listening to a realy low quality audio file all the time this is through the headphone jack. i cant foind any settings to fix this in the drivers and if i use a 3rd party eq such as in vlc playe rit just gets worse
if i turn the master down to 10% and turn up 3rd party volume the signal distorts at 50% signal on the 3rd party hard core
i tried a search? help suggestions says i have the latest audio driver
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Then goto Control Panel/Sound/Playback/Properties/Enhancements tab and check "Disable All Effects", something like that. Maybe it will help. We also had problems with low audio output on our L430 so we, after much trouble with different Win7 Realtek drivers AND Dolby Advanced Audio "features", ended up deinstalling Dolby Advanced Audio altogether and since then our audio output has been acceptable. But before deinstalling Dolby Advanced Audio, check "Disable All Effects" in Windows Control Panel's Sound/Playback/Properties/Enhancements tab.

Airplay Audio Sounds Like Skipping CD

The audio is really choppy. Plays little blurbs of the song or movie's audio every second or two. Super obnoxious. Why doesn't this work? Used to work just fine, now it doesn't Tried resetting apple tv and restarting my computer already. Have 2012 MBP Retina and latest apple tv.

Hmmmm, now when I do airplay mirroring it will play sound but it won't display video.

Audio sounds like half-speed on Zen Touch, but not on the

I've got TONS of Opie and Anthony that I'm moving from my computer to my Zen Touch. Unfortunately, many of the files sound as if they're playing at half-speed, even though the timer at the bottom is running at the appropriate speed. This only happens when I'm playing them on my Zen Touch; when I listen to the files on my pc, the sound is just fine.
Running firmware .00.06. I've read that there have been issues with new firmware, so I've been wary to update to a newer version.
If anyone can help, you'll make a guy really happy...Message Edited by taunter on 06-20-2005 :34 PM

Taunter,
Here is a rundown of what MP3 bitrates you will want to have:
Mono: 24KBPS and higher
Stereo: 40KBPS and higher
If you try VBR, it may be difficult to figure out exactly where to place the slider, but I would suggest keeping it from the lower sections so that it doesn't drop into the Khz sampling range.
All WMA bitrates should work ok, since they do not sample lower than 22Khz.

None of the vertical pictures will import. I don't even get the black screens so can't even try the edit option that others suggest. Sounds like we all have to report it to apple to get a fix?????

I Cannot import any vertical pictures. I don't even get a black screen and therefore can't edit. After downloading from the camera the vertices pictures show with a red ! And won't import. Sounds like we all have to report this to apple ....but anyone had same issue and how can I fix, we are on trip and need to clear the camera for more photos.

This topic belongs in the iPhoto for iOS community. I've asked the hosts to move it there.
