Muvo TX FM - Very odd sound quality prob

My Muvo is 2,5 years old. After last weekend it started to function oddly. Allmost everything works very well. The only problem is that when playing songs that includes singing, I can't hear the singing. Everything else sounds good. I can hear guitars, keyboards, drums, flutes ect. but singing always suppresses out in every song. It's like listening karaoke songs. I have tried formatting the device. I have updated firmwares. I have changed the battery. Nothing seems to work. Any ideas?

Earphones are OK, so are the equalizer settings.
Strange thing is that the songs on the mp3-player sound fine when played over the computer.
Do you think formatting is an option?

Odd sound quality

Over the last few weeks, I've been noticing the sound quality in itunes has gotten strange. On certain songs it's almost like the sound mix of the song has changed. Like there are certain channels or instruments dropping out. It sounds like if you just took an entire guitar track out of a song. Very strange. I've looked through the forums dealing with sound quality and haven't really noticed anyone having a similar problem, however, I have tried some of the solutions offered to other sound problems.
I have turned off the sound enhancer as well as the sound check. I have turned the computer volume up and turned the itunes volume down. I have also deleted the plist eq file.
When I play these certain songs through quicktime, they sound fine, which makes me sure it is something having to do with itunes.
Any thoughts? Thanks in advance!

ok, here's the latest. the "bad sound" sems to be getting worse as it is affecting more and more songs. the interesting thing i've found is that if i plug some headphones into the computer, the songs sound fine. could it be my speakers? (original usb soundsticks and isub). but then why would the songs sound fine through quicktime?
to recap:
bad sound quality on certain songs (almost like channels are dropping out) in itunes.
the same songs sound fine when played through quicktime.
the same songs sound fine when played through itunes and headphones.
anybody? any thoughts or possible solutions? it bothers me so much that i am considering doing a clean re-install and starting over.

Odd sound quality with streaming music

I had more than 1 Quick Time clip streaming earlier today and they sounded very odd. I didn't notice until listening to a stream online and then checking songs on iTunes and found similar problems with both. There seems to be uneven volume between elements of a stream and all vocals tend to sound as if they're drenched in reverb or emanating from a cave. I re-started the iMac, but the problem still exists. Anyone else have this problem?
thanks!

The sound coming from my speakers now just sounds garbled and low in volume, whereas a piano sound from my Reason software sounds fine. Is there any fix to this issue? Thanks.

Very poor sound quality on bluetooth headphones through HP Envy 700-074 desktop

I recently purchased a pair of Bose AE2W wireless bluetooth headphones to use with my HP Envy 700-074 desktop computer. After successfully pairing the headphones the sound quality is extremely poor. I know the headphones are not the pronblem since they sound beautiful when paired with my iPhone or iPad.
I have tried updating the driver, but I have the most current version installed according to the computer. Adjustment of the Beats Audio controls or any other sound controls does not help.

Micro Sound quality prob

Hi?I have recently bought a Zen Micro 2nd hand. It is my first Creative product and it is top notch EXCEPT the sound quality is rubbish. It must be the equaliser or something cos I can hear guitar, but no drums, or drums but no vocals etc etc. I have tried all settings on the equaliser but none seem to work. Has anyone else experienced this, and how did you solve it's?CheersIan?

hey!i am also having this problem. it is so annoying. just been reading around the net abit and it sounds like it happens to alot of zens after a while. my friends one was like it when he recieved it new! so he sent it back and he recieved another one which was ok.. but no doubt it will happen again in the future. i've had mine for a couple of years now.. so i wont be able to send off for a replacement.. neither will you seeing as its second hand (unless the original owner bought it less than 2months ago?). so looks like im just going to have to buy another one.. but def not a zen again. so annoying cos i love my lil orange micro.. but they just dont seem to stand the test of time!

MuVo TX Sudden loss in sound quality -irrecoverab

My MuVo Tx simply stopped working as usual. I was listening to it, put it away on the shelf i keep it decided to go out for a walk later on picked it up turned it on and nowit sounds as though it's only playing higher pitched notes and background vocals - almost like a recording error - for example like i was recording one channel on a 2 channel program, so only hearing half the original.
Yet using the same program Creative Media Source and even Windows Media Player 0 and on different computers incase it was my USB ports acting up.
Change of batteries doesn't resolve anything, a format via Windows in the FAT format resolves nothing. I even flashed the players bios to see if i could just everything.
No dice.
Has anyone else had this problem at all? I guess my last resort is to RMA it (if i can find my purchase receipt - why o why do i not keep better track of them).
I'm at a total loss to explain it. Oh btw the headphones work fine on my cd walkman, tape walkman and other headphones give me the same result. No physical damge noticeable, i can't recall even ever knocking it about other than to slide it in and out of a USB slot.
Any ideas appreciated.
Thanks

Problem fixed... I downloaded iTunes and reinstalled it... Alls well again

What is better sound quality headset MH 710 ot MH700

As the headline says which headset gives better quality sound...I own the HPM77 and want something as good as that!
thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

If you look on Amazon UK, these headsets are very similar in terms of both specs and price (£13-£15), and both have excellent reviews, so judging from that , I would say that they both have very good sound quality, so I don't think you will find any discernible difference between them.

Sound quality decline in calls

After upgrading to 3.0 (in Italy, Vodafone) I'm experiencing a dramatic decline in sound quality during calls. While the signal icon is always full, the sound is "metal" and intermittent and my callers report very bad sound quality and difficult to understand words.
Has somebody the same experience?
Stefano

I have same issue. My new iPhone 3G S (US/ATT) sound quality on phone call is very poor. Lots of hissing noise, sometimes even it feels as though there is a small waterfall in the background. Deeply disappointed with this issue right now and in Iphone 3G s !

New ipod color lost clear sound quality

My new ipod which was a Christmas present lost its very good sound quality. It now plays everything "fuzzy" -- like with static. I have reset and restored (only once so far), but with no luck. The sound is still terrible. It is not the earphones, because I tested them on the computer. I have also had other people listen to make sure it just wasn't me.
Do I need to send it back to Apple for repair?

Hello Tollykev,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you have some audio issues with your iPad after the iOS 7 update.
I want to recommend the following troubleshooting from the article named:
iPhone: No sound or distorted sound from speaker
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5180
Verify that the volume is set to a level you would normally be able to hear.
Ensure that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack or the dock connector.
If the iPhone is in a protective case, make sure that the speaker port isn't blocked by the case.
Make sure that the speaker and dock port aren't clogged with debris. If necessary, clean it with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush. Carefully and gently brush away any debris.
If an audio issue occurs when using a specific application, try testing other applications to see if the issue persists.
If the iPhone is paired with a Bluetooth headset or car kit:
Try turning off Bluetooth.
If you experience difficulties with the Bluetooth feature, follow these troubleshooting steps.
Restart the iPhone.
If restarting doesn't fix the issue, ensure that your iPhone is updated to the latest version of iOS.
If the issue is not resolved after restoring the iPhone software, please contact Apple Support.
Regards,
Sterling

I play my music via an airport express attached to my hi fi system. Since upgrading to maverick the sound quality is very poor. It sounds very flakey with the volume level going up and down. Tried Ethernet and wireless, but no good

I play music on my hi fi via an airport express attached to my iMac.
Since installing maverick the sound quality is terrible and I get frequent distortion, which never happened before.
I have reset the airport express and reconfigure my wireless settings. I have also used Ethernet on its own but still get the same sound problems.
I would love to turn itunes sound off as you used to be able to do, but this I believe can't be done.
Has anyone else been having the same types of problem, and better still has anyone got the answer?

So if I connect my ipad or iPod to an airport express that is being "extended" from the main airport express (the main router which is plug into my audio system), I should still be able to listen to my music, correct?
Yes but be sure to turn on Airplay at whatever Airport connects to the audio.

Also, will the date rate be decreased if they are connected by cat 5e Ethernet cable? I thought signal drop is minimal.
That's a whole different ball game and a much better solution if it's practical to implement. The data rate will not decrease.

Sound Quality Creative Zen

I recently purchased a Zen 8gb which I had to return due to a minor problem. I am not convinced that the sound quality of the new one is not as good as the previous one. Is this possible or am i paranoid. I have also been doing some blind tests with my old muvo n200 which sounds superior every time. Peoples opinions would be appreciated.

Bump, is it true that going back to the original .xxx firmware improves sound quality? If so, where can I find it's
If, by sound quality you mean increased bass, than the original firmware won't make any difference.
What phones are you using? If you are using the stock Creative earbuds, your first step should be to get some better ones. They are of poor quality, and don't produce a very good bass response - partly because they don't fit most people very well, and the only way to get a good bass response with earbuds is to have a good fit. There are many phones that will give a heavy bass output.
I have found that Creative players aren't as bass-heavy as some other players, but it isn't as though the sound is tinny. I find it very natural, but of course that is my own opinion and preference.Message Edited by Artemesia on 2-26-2005 04:06 PM

Poor sound quality in timeline and export; fine in Source?

Hello all.
Newbie to Pr but experienced pro in digital audio. I'm stumped and know I'm just missing something somewhere.
I've made a music video for one of my songs. The graphics are all done (in AE), imported to Pr and eveything looks great. I import the final mix of the audio and it sounds very low quality when played from the timeline and in the final output, regardless of format (I've tried several presets and custom settings as well). I played around and noticed that the audio sounds fine when played from the Source window inside Premier.
The Pr session is comrised of 18 video tracks (not all playing at once, of course) and one stereo audio track.
I've tried re-exporting the audio from Logic at different bit depths, sample rates and file formats (mp3, wav, AAC, etc) but the results are the same every time: Source (Pr)sounds fine, Logic output sounds fine, rendered / timeline playback sounds like very low quality mp3 and final product sounds just as bad.
I've tried everything I can think of. I hope one of you can show me what I'm missing.
TIA!

Thank you for the reply!
I was experiencing the same results no matter what export settings I used. Plus the poor sound quality was present in the timeline itself, without even exporting the project.
I finally threw my hands up, started a completely new project, drug the same audio file in... sounded fine. Copied / Pasted the video clips from the original, broken project and boom, eveything is fixed. Yeah, corrupted Pr file it turns out. All I had to do was start a new project and import all the old components.
I've had to do this in Logic a lot (increasingly, these days). I just wish I'd tried it 10 hours earlier! Ha.
Anyway, problem solved, and thanks very much!
