Low pitch hum when recording audio with iOS 7.1.2

I recently updated my ipad OS and now when I record I get a low pitch hum. I have checked all of my cables and connections, I've tried out different pre-amps (alesis iodock and focusrite scarlett 18i8) and I can not get rid of the hum... When I hook the pre-amps up to my pc the sound is crystal clear. Any suggestions? I've tried looking for firmware updates but none are posted as of yet.

  • High pitch noise when recording audio using internal mic

    The issue I am having is with the internal mic. When recording audio using quicktime or garageband.It is a high pitch noise that stays whether i am speaking or not. The fix i found was to lower the input volume of the mic in system preferences. However, this causes my voice to be recorded so low that audio is barely usable unless volume is all the way up. Looking around the web I found this gem:
    http://www.usingmac.com/2009/6/18/recording-speech-with-garageband-2009
    This help me get rid of the high pitch noise for Garageband. The noise still there for Quicktime. Any ideas on how I can keep the same mic input volume with out having to listen to the high pitch noise?
    Any help is appreciated.

    Did you do the usual stuff, such as reset PRAM?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    There are some sound settings in PRAM, although I think it's only for sound output.
    Also, as a test, I would create a new admin user account in System Preferences Accounts pane
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/8235.html
    Log out and log in to the new account (do not use Fast User Switching). In the new account, try recording something using QuickTime, and note if this problem recurs. If it does not, you have eliminated a few possible causes, such as a problem with the overall system installation or a hardware issue, and isolated the problem to something in your normal user account.

  • High pitch whine when recording audio & voiceover in iMovie

    I have read other posts on similar issues but found no resolution
    Issue:
    When recording video in iMovie there is sometimes a high-pitched whine which renders the video useless. 
    The problem was intermittent ... annoying but I wokred around it by re-recording the video enough times to finally get a "clean" copy.
    Now I am recording voice-overs for some clips and the awful whine is present in ALL the voice-overs. 
    I have tried the "trick" of using brighter light.  No joy.
    I have tried adjusting the microphone settings.  No joy.
    THis is an older macbook ... so I can't trade-in for a new one on warrantee. 
    Is Mac's internal microphone defective?  I have read enough other people have similar issues to think this.
    I am doing educational videos.  My initial joy at being able to record a video on my macbook is changing to despair as I have wasted hours of time on tech problems like this. 
    Anyone have a real fix? 
    Is the built-in camera and mic just shoddy junk which doesn't work well?
    Thank you

  • Pitch change when recording audio

    Hi all,
    I've been recording audio voiceover tracks without issue for 3 years to my Mac Pro:
    OSX 10.9.2
    2x2.3 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
    12 GB 106 MHz DDR3
    I record with a condenser mic via my M-Audio FastTrack Pro. Suddenly, all recorded audio now has shifted up in pitch to chipmunk-like frequencies and I cannot figure out why. As far as I can tell, the duration of the clips does not change, only the pitch. No settings have been changed in FCP X or on the FastTrack Pro. Has anyone else had the same problem or know of a fix?
    Thanks,
    Bill

    is there a time limit in GB
    Yes, though it shouldn't change the pitch or speed, it would jsut cut off.

  • Recording audio with Skype.

    I want to Podcast using GB but stumbled when finding out that I can only record interviews using iChat. is there another way that I can record audio with GB. I know about AudioHijack Pro which seems like a good app. is that my only option?

    You might play with SoundFlower, or Jack OS which both claim to be able to route audio between apps, but there is no built-in interface between GB and anything other than iChat.

  • Delay when recording audio compared to my midi click

    Im using my Powerbook G4 1.5G and a Presonus Firebox to record audio with a midi click. I´m using the firebox mixer for monitoring and have switched off logic software monitoring. I have no latency when listening while recording, but when listening to the recorded file, it´s delayed compared to the pre-recorded click loop.
    This is what I don´t understand. Why is the recorded file delayed? I have the delaycompensation off. It does not matter if I record on the internal disk or a Lacie external firewire disk.
    I have a G4powermac and a motu 2408 mk3 with no problems like this what so ever.
    Should i do a midi signal output correction? Is this really necessary on a setup today? Why do I not have the same problem on my G4 Powermac?
    I hope somebody have an idea.

    there is always some latency when the signal goes thru the computer.
    you can do a test and determine how much delay you are seeing and then
    go to:
    audio/audio hardware & drivers/drivers
    and in the recording delay box put in the amount to be compensated for.
    With my setup i fugured out that I had 57 ms of delay.

  • Recording audio with JavaFX

    Hi All,
    I was looking for advice on how best to record audio with JavaFX, as JMF is seriously out of date.
    Can anybody tell me how to get started here?
    Cheers,
    Chester

    I think you'll have to do it via Java Sound API, because JavaFX itself doesn't have capability of recording audio. Maybe in version 1.3, but I have no access to it.

  • When I try to record audio with Soundflower, the recording has no audio. What am I doing wrong?

    I am an amateur DJ trying to record a mix made in Cross DJ. I followed a tutorial instructing me to use Soundflower to route my system audio to QuickTime and have had no problem routing. Yet when I record the audio with QuickTime, the recording plays no audio. What am I doing wrong? I really need this mix recorded and I have no intention of downloading extra software.

    This is because you have Punch on the fly enabled under Options (top menu)>Audio>Punch on the Fly.... signified by the letter P instead of the letter R

  • Logic Pro when recording audio and midi takes, the regions sometimes become confused. The midi tracks line up with audio tracks.

    When recording midi and audio tracks simutaneously the midi tracks don't always line up with the software instrument channel. They may show up on the audio track. Sometimes they appear white instead of the normal green. Any suggestions?
