Itunes sound awful

I deleted and restarted my computer and downloaded the newest itunes you have. The fact remains... itunes sounds awful.
I currently use windowsxp player 10. I want to use itunes Everyone else in house uses itunes. When I use the Windows 10 player it sounds fine. I cannot play anything on itunes that sounds half way decent. It sounds tinny, rocky, gravelly more one sided than the other. I have had my sister look at the preferences and they are set exactly as hers are set. No my settings aren't maxed out either.
I can take the same mp3 and play it on itunes and it's bad and play it on window player 10 and its fine. I have just gotton 3 itune music cards and want to download some songs and use itunes. Can someone help and explain it to me how to fix it?

we had better check on the usual suspects with that from the following document. (if you've now got an itunes 6.0.5.20, you'll need to check the QT 7 sound out settings rather than the QT 6 settings. restart itunes and/or QT after applying any settings changes.)

  • Playback audio in iTunes sounds awful

    Hello,
    I have a MacBook Pro (mid 2009 Yosemity 10.10.1) which is connected to the network using Wi-Fi through an Airport Extreme base station (newest model). Further I have a wire connected Synology NAS in my network on which I have stored 45.000 audio tracks: my iTunes lib.
    When I played music with the iTunes app on my MacBook, everything used to be OK. Alas, since a few months (first only sometimes, but currently more and more often!) I encounter the following problem:
    When an audio track ends and skips to the next track starts, the track sounds like an old-fashioned modem: a very high pitching. You can hear that it is the track that is played, but it sounds awful. When I stop the track and restart it again, most of the time the track sounds as it should. Sometimes the high pitch sound will be heard again, but most of the time the track plays as it should.
    Very annoying behavior, when you play in shuffle mode you just have to reset too often.
    Does anybody recognize this issue or is there a solution for it?
    I would appreciate your input, Peter

    Try changing audio output sample rate to 48000Hz. You can do this by launching Audio MIDI Setup, located in Applications/Utilities. Select the Audio Devices tab and ensure you have correct interfaces selected for input/output. Try switching between the Audio Output Format settings.
    Aside from this try setting the buffer size on the Digidesign CoreAudio Manager which should be open when iTunes is attempting to play through the interface. I did have this problem at one point. Ensure you have installed all Pro Tools CS updates and Mac OSX updates too.

  • Imported songs in iTunes sound awful-please help!

    I imported all of my music into my iTunes and put them on my iPod. A lot of the songs that i imported sound 'garbled and distorted on my iPod (20gb-color). My purchased music sounds perfect. I tried the following with no luck:
    Converted my whole library to MP3.
    Changed importing setting to highest quality.
    Turned off cross fade and sound check boxes.
    Any help is REALLY appreciated.
    Thank you!!

    Make sure that you have read and write permission to the song files and to the folders they are in.

  • Updated my memory and now my speakers sound awful!  What happened?

    After I installed more memory, my speakers sound awful.  Any ideas as to what happened and/or how to fix it?
    MacBook Pro 15" 2.66 (mid 2009)
    8gb 1067 MHz DDR3

    I solved the issue and thought I would pass it along.  It turns out that I updated iTunes shortly before I installed the memory.  Some how the equalizer was turned on and the pre-amp was cranked up to max.  Not sure why as I never use the equalizer, I have always had it turned off.  Maybe the upgrade turned it on for some reason.  Once I turned down the pre-amp to 0, my built-in speakers sound just as they should, perfect.  Then of course, I just turned it off completely.  

  • Video started to sound awful when i've updated to iOS6, how can this be fix?

    Hi,
    Ever sine i've updated to iOS6 this October, the sound of my videos on my iPad started to sound awful. I'm using the default video player for iPad. It sounds like there's an echo, bass sounds has totally low quality and etc.
    I tried removing the videos(music video) on my iPad then resync it but it still sounds different from before. I've tested the sounds in my mp3 (same song) still sounds as expected. So my sound setting and my headset are not defective.
    Please teach me how can i fix this issue.
    Thanks

    What app are you using?
    Do you get sound from the YourTube app
    From other website?
    I suspect a problem with the specific site you are using, not an iPod problem. Can you post a link to that site?

  • My iTunes sound is messed up and I can't fix it!

    iTunes sound is horribly scratchy, the equalization is way off and everytime I try and fix it (reinstall, go back to an older version) it gets worse!
    Please help.

  • ITunes sounds funny with a twist

    I am currently using iTunes 6, but the problem showed up when I upgraded to iTunes 5.
    Videos played through iTunes sound funny (garbly, underwater). This applies to all music videos, trailers, pixar movies etc. in the music store.
    However all songs in my library and 30 sec. song samples sound fine.
    I downloaded a pixar movie & it sounded funny also. I then tried playing it with quicktime and it sounded fine.

    hi gpman!
    hmmmmm. apologies that this is taking a while. still trying to get to grips with the video sound issues. (i may be behind on the state of the art with this too ... i haven't been able to get out to the other forums to check on developments there.)
    let's see if the bluezdawg tweaks have some success in your case:

  • ITunes sound completely stopped

    The sound on my iTunes stopped in the middle of playing music.  It hasn't worked since.  I've checked all the sound controls. I've rebooted my computer.  I've watched an NBA game on broadband - sound worked for that.  Youtube sound works, other videos, too.  Just not iTunes sound.  Not from my music collection, or from sampling songs at the iTunes store.

    iTunes has its own volume control, an unlabeled slider in the toolbar of the window. Move it all the way to the right.
    If an AirPlay device is selected for sound output from iTunes, deselect it.

  • Itunes sound and Media player sound

    Perhaps this topic has been posted dozens of times but still I got a question.
    I believe that media player has a very neat and nice sound while iTunes are more loud and not so deep. even if I make equilizer default. So the question.
    Is it possible to male itunes sound to be so nice as Media Player?

    I am not sure if there is an answer to your problem, but in the past I felt that both WMP and RealPlayer had slightly better sound than iTunes.
    I did find that updating my audio drivers noticably improved the iTunes sound, so that is all I can suggest.

  • ITunes sound improvement

    I like iTunes for its great sortng features but I don't like how it sounds. I believe that Aimp player sounds the best of any player I've used. Who I can address that could help me to make iTunes sound as perfect as Aimp player ?

    yes. I have compared them. I don't know which sound engine Aimp uses but it is really great. I wish itunes sound that sweet.
    Thanks for the link. I've sent my feedback. Hope it will work.

  • ITunes Sound

    My iTunes sound isn't working. It says it's playing the songs, but no sound is coming out. The weird thing is my speakers work otherwise, like when I'm watching a movie. It's only iTunes that's messed up. It stopped working when I tried to download a program that would transfer my music from my iPod to iTunes (which didn't work). But after I tried that is when it stopped playing my music. PLEASE HELP!!!

    So i used to be able to play itunes music will
    playing Counter Strike just fine...but now with the
    new version it like speeds up the music and makes it
    sound fussy...even when i open websites like myspace
    or facebook...it acts up for a bit...anyone else have
    this problem...or know what might be the problem? I
    have a fast computer so I don't understand what is
    goin' on?
    I am having the same problem as well with any game i play eg:WOW, CS, Quake4, etc...
    AMD FX-55 Windows XP Pro ASUS SLI-Deluxe Mobo, 2 Gigs DDR-400 Ram
    the volume slider does work fine tho..

  • Balancing volume/gain across clips - anything like iTunes Sound Check

    I am now in charge of a pretty large pile of pre-cut FCP clips captured in less than ideal circumstances, but with reasonably clear narrated voice overs. There are hundreds of short similar clips, but the volume varies tremendously, and I am trying to assemble them into longer sequences.
    So - since they are all speech at a similar volume, is there any batch operation I can run on my clips to raise or lower the gain on each one to the same final level? I am looking for something similar to iTunes' sound check.

    You could TRY (try) the normalize feature by sending it to Soundtrack after you edit.
    Might work ok for you.
