My audio for songs all sound like chipmunks...

I actually know what I did wrong...I just can't get it back. All audio on my computer is sped up. I uninstalled Microsoft Plus! Digital Media Edition, and did not know this would happen. I tried Restoring my computer to earlier dates but it will not do. I ask, how do I get my audio fixed???? Can't seem to fing download (free or $$) for Microsoft Plus anywhere(not offering anymore). Also, do I actually need the software, or can I fix without it??? Anyone who can offer help in this area would be much appreciated!!!!!!
Jay.

bump

Also...my ipod is not affected, it still plays at normal speed when hooked up

Audio output using Logitech Clearchat Pro USB headset sounds like chipmunks

I use a Logitech Clearchat USB headset for online meetings daily. On my previous machine (Black MacBook 2GHz) the headphones and mic worked fine. I just upgraded to a new 2.66 Unibody MacBook Pro and while the microphone works fine but the audio in the headphones sounds like chipmunks. If I switch the audio output to the speakers, the audio sounds fine.
Logitech claims that since the drivers the headphones use are built-in, it's not their issue. I'm curious if anyone else has experienced this problem and how I might be able to get it resolved.
Thanks.

' orangehat I sincerely hope you (we?) get an answer on this one! I ordered exactly the same headset the same time I did my 17-inch MBP. Still waiting for everything to be delivered - so can't say as yet whether I have the problem too. Hoping not.
' Hoping there's an answer to your question anyways so I can get an idea of things before my kit lands (IF that EVER actually HAPPENS!!!)

Is there a fix for Bluetooth failing after 1-2 hours of play on my remote audio speakers? It sounds like "gargling". It occurs with all bluetooth speakers and quitting and restarting bluetooth is the only remedy I've found. Others?

8-doing a factory reset, then repeating steps 1 through 6
Do you mean a restore to factory settings?. If so did you set up as new or restore from back up afterwards?

The Elements 12 Mac disk works fin - I also have a Dell, and the Windows disk will not run at all, sounds like it's grinding, and is almost impossible to remove from the hard drive. I cannot find any place to tell me who to CALL to ask for a replacement!

Hi Samcat,
You can use a download instead of the disk as an alternative: Adobe - Download free trial version Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 | Adobe you can license with your serial
Please test the disk in another windows machine to check if it's caused by the drive or the disk. If you tested with 2 drives please start a support case, i assume Adobe will only provide downloads at this point. They are the same as the trials. If you still need a disk you can burn the trial to a disk as a backup disk. Good luck!

Looking for ringtone that sounds like a landline p...

Hi,
I'm looking for ringtone that sounds like a landline phone, in other words no music, movie sounds, etc., just a good quality tone that sounds like a conventional (old fashioned even) telephone ring. Any ideas what site I can get one from?
Many thanks, etc.
PS. Handset is a Nokia 6300.

Have a look at the ones I posted here they are a more traditional kind of ring rather than old fashioned ones though.

Converting cassette to cd using garageband. Voice on cassette sounds like chipmunk. Is there a way to fix the speed during recording on garageband, so the voice sounds normal?

Librarian Asst. needs your help! Trying to preserve WWII veteran's interviews presently on cassette. However, on one cassette the voices sound like chipmunks (speed too fast during recording). I know how to transfer the cassette recording onto garageband. I just don't know how to transfer the recording at a slower speed, so that the voices will sound normal. Is there a way? Please help. Thanks.

You could try two things (sorry, I can only point you to the current settings in GB'11, since I no longer have GB '09) but it should be very similar.
The easiest thing would be, if the vocal transformers do work. You can change the pitch of a voice using a "Vocal Transformer" effect. Click the "Edit" tab in the "Info" panel and click an empty brick to add a filter:
If that does not work, try to change the timing of the track. Enable "Follow Tempo&Pitch". If GB '09 does not have "follow tempo & pitch", record your tape directly into a Real Instrument track in GB to record a purple region.
Use the tempo slider in the LED display to lower the tempo, till the recording does sound more natural.
Good Luck,
Léonie

Audio on video export sounds like machine gun

I have an issue with a sequence. When exported there is no audio, just a sound that sounds like like a computer machine gun, a repetitive rat a tat tat. Tried different computers and codecs with same result. Audio is fine while editing and haven't ran into this one before.

Making Garageband songs not sound like Garageband songs

Is there a trick to making GBand songs sound like 'normal' songs? When I play songs I've created in GBand on my car stereo, it sounds awful compared to 'real' music. I've played around with the Master Tracks, but nothing seems to work well. I want my music to envelope/surround me, not sound like I'm tinkering around with a cheap keyboard. Thanks.

Well....
This isn't what you want to hear, but GB is only as good as the person using it. I have some friends that are trained audio engineers and they can make GB sound as good as anything. I do a pretty good job too. LOL!
What I would like to emphasize if you are looking for pro sounding recordings:
-get decent monitors,
-learn to use your microphones AND the space/room you are recording in,
-read up on the art of mixing,
-learn what a compressor does and familiarize yourself with them,
-practice mixing other's songs (Nine Inch Nails has 2 of their songs as free GB downloads for mixing)
-read and practice, read and practice, read and practice, read and practice, read and practice, read and practice, read and practice, read and practice, read and practice, read and practice, read and practice, read and practice, read and practice, read and practice, read and practice, read and practice, read and practice, read and practice, read and practice, read and practice,
and that about covers it. Garageband is just a tool. You have to make it work.
Good luck and welcome to the forum! If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Lots of smart people here.

Hi,
I have the same issue on my HP Win8 desktop.My voice is disguised as chipmunk to the other party. I can hear everybody fine. I followed the exact instruction and tried search for the folder named "Skype" through writing %appdata% in the Search /Run box as I've read in the previous post, but it did not find a such folder. I don't have a problem using Skype on my laptop supported by Win 7. Anybody out there knows how to fix this? I reinstalled Skype and still the same.
What is the version of Skype program installed on your computer? In Skype go to Help -> About Skype.

VO sounds like chipmunks in viewer

When I play a VO in the viewer it sounds like it's sped up big time. When I bring it to the timeline it sounds fine. It's an aiff file. I've tried a couple of different VO's and the all do this. Any reason why?

Maybe you could post a sample for someone to have a look at .... as for the why, the Viewer and Timeline windows treat clips very much differently. The Viewer is playing the clip back according to its source settings whereas the Canvas/Timeline is playing it back according to the sequence settings as applied to that source.

For voice to sound like from a telephone

Hi,
I have some voices recorded in .wav and I wanted to include them on my FCE 4 project.
It's supposed to be a telephone conversation, so the voices are in off.
How can I make them sound like they come from an actual telephone?
Thank you.

Salut Michel. Je suis de l'ile Maurice donc je parle aussi francais comme toi mais j'écris tres mal le francais. So I'll carry on in english. I use a JVC GZHD7 "1980x1080" camera (.TOD file), imovie HD, FCE HD 3.5.1, MacBookPro intel core duo, Tiger and like you I have been a Mac user since 1987. I am doing fine importing TOD file (raw) to imovie HD and exporting using H.264 compression but can't import raw to FCE HD. I am looking for a way to avoid conversion through quicktime as its time consuming and quality very poor. You can check my short test on www.vimeo.com/1058890 where I exported using H.264 compression at Bitrate 5000 kbits/sec and downsized to 1280x720. Voila. Can you help please? Merci d'avance. Vino.
