My voicemail greeting sounds like I'm in a tunnel

My husband left me a message and said the greeting sounded like I was in an echo chamber. Any tips? Do you speak directly into the mic at the bottom?

When I record my Greeting message it sounds like I'm in a tunnel. What's wrong?

When I record my voicemail greeting it sounds like I'm in a tunnel. What can I do to clean it up and eliminate the "tunnel like" sound.

How do I adjust sound quality in itunes - sounds like the chipmonks in a tunnel

I'm trying to listen to songs I purchased on itunes from my iPad/iPhone on my everyday PC - Compaq. Never had a problem before! Now all my music sounds like it's in a tunnel and Alvin of the Chipmonks is the lead singer in Alice in Chains !! HELP I'VE TRIED EVERYTHING !! Thank you

You seem to be asking two separate questions here.
1) Interfaces
Interfaces start at around $30 and go into the thousands depoending on what you want to do, You need to define your needs first, then your budget
Some example interfaces:

2) How do I Mix and Master
You'll need to read some books if you have no idea how to mix and/or Master.
Mixing is making everythnig sound good together, and I have no idea how I could explain that other than to say "you change the levels of each track and add effects as desired, until you get thesound you want.
Mastering is even harder to define, you'll really need to do some research (even online. There is PLENTY of info on the web).

Nano sounds terrible, music sounds like it's in a tunnel!

I loaded my entire I-Tunes library on my new nano, but the music sounds like it is in a tunnel. I have tried 4 different pairs of headphones and completely wiped it out and RE-loaded the library again, with the same results. I tried to change the EQ option, but nothing has helped. Any suggestions or should I go back to the Apple store to get a new one?

had the same problem...seems alot of people are...the headphones may appear to be all the way in but they aren't. i shoved them in and they work fine now

Since I updated to IOS 8.1 yesterday my sound is garbled and sounds like it's in a tunnel. What can I do?

That's because there is no supported way to downgrade the iOS. Further, discussion of such is prohibited here, by this forum's terms of use.
You'll have to go elsewhere if you want to go down this route.

When using Apple earphones, the phone sounds like I'm in a tunnel.

I just got a new iPhone 4 and when I use the Apple earphones while talking on the phone, it sounds like I'm in a tunnel. This never happened with my 3GS. This doesn't happen when I am listening to music. Then it sounds fine. Any ideas on what is causing this?

Mic is too sensitive, calls constantly cut out. People tell me y loud, and it sounds like I'm in a tunnel. Any background noise, and call is completely cutting out. This occurs all the time, but more so using earphones with in cord mic.

I have iphone5 ios6 and the Mic is too sensitive, and calls constantly cut in and out. People tell me there is loud background noise and it sounds like I'm in a wind tunnel. Any background noise, and call completely cuts in and out and sounds as if call is dropping. This occurs all the time, but more noticeable while using earphones with in cord mic. I never had this problem with my old iphone4. Has anyone experienced this, and is there a setting that can correct this problem?

Same problem for me. So bad in fact that I can't really use my headphones for calls. I have tried it with several sets of headphones. My primary are the Bang and Olufsen headphones which were great with the previous iphone 4 and 3.
Apple please address this issue.

Earbuds Sound Like You're in a Tunnel?

I have several employees who bought iphones and the earbuds are unusable especially for important phone calls. You can hear the other person alright but they say you sound like you're in a windy tunnel or on a motor cycle when you're in a silent room!
Does anybody else have this issue?
Is this enough for an earbud replacement or are they all bad?
Normal calls are average, speakerphone calls are poor and earbud calls are horrible.

Yes, I had this exact issue. Earbuds were UNUSABLE for calls - everyone says that you are in a "windy tunnel" like you said, and they can not hear anything.
I took the phone in and was given new earbuds -- Problem fixed. Still not the best sounding conversation according to others I am talking too, but definitely usable, and people can actually hear me.
Hope this helps.

I sound like I'm in a tunnel when speaking on iPhone? I've had my phone a few months. The problem started suddenly.

I soundl like I'm in a tunnel when speaking on iphone people say. I've had my Verizon iphone 4s since February and problem started 2d ago. I synced, turned off bluetooth, restarted, recharged. Any suggestions?

Have you by any chance covered the little hole at the top of the phone or is there any dirt in it?

Caller sounds like they are in a tunnel when receiving or making a call. When using earphones I can hear great.

When placing or receiving a call with new iphone 5 using the earpiece on the phone, the person on the other end sounds very low, like in a tunnel. Volume is as high as it will go. Earbuds work great but I can't always use them, I need to be able to do a NORMAL call without earbuds.

Update - made an appointment at Genius bar today (chadstone, Victoria, Australia).
Genius examined phone, replicated the issue and identified a malfunctioning main microphone. He noted that the reason I could still talk to the other party when I activated the 'speakerphone' function is that the speakerphone has a (second) noise cancelling microphone/speaker at the top of the handset. He replaced the phone under warranty, and offered to help me to set up the new phone. In and out in less than 15 minutes, with new phone operational.
Very knowledgable, very polite and just great service.. Thank you Apple team at Chadstone.

Want to UPLOAD recorded voicemail greeting file from my computer.

Hi. First post here. I've been a Uverse customer (TV, internet, and voice) for a few weeks now. I started a thread on dslreports.com on this topic. Thought I would raise it here for potentially broader Uverse audience. There is a pretty cool feature on the Uversecentral web pages for managing your voicemail in which you can hear your current voicemail greeting as a WAV file played on your computer's speakers. I want the inverse. I want to ability to UPLOAD an audio file of my custom greetings (WAV, mp3, whatever they will accept) from my computer and have it become my greeting. In other words, I do NOT want to use the telephone as the recording device. And I do not want to re-record my custom greeting files. This idea came about while listening to a favorite weekend radio show. Some lucky caller to the radio show who wins the little contest gets to have the famous announcer on the show studio-record (and presumably delivered electronically) the winners home answering machine greeting. There are also professional recording services available for recording greetings of which I might wish to take advantage. It makes sense to me that AT&T would have the ability to allow customers to upload to their own voicemailbox greeting that has been recorded and edited using the superior tools available for computer audio editing. If they can give me a WAV file, they should be able to take one in return. I could keep a library of my desired greetings on my computer and upload the one I want from my hotel room, wherever I am in the world. That would be particularly useful when I am out of the country. Adding whatever sounds I want (some of my own music compositions, for example) to my greeting would be a snap with the ability to manage my greetings on my own computer. If there is already a way to do this, someone let me know. Otherwise, anybody else interested in this capability?

I just started researching the ability to upload a mobile voicmail message via computer and found this thread. It looks like there hasn't been any activity in years. If the thread is monitored I was wondering if there was any update? This should be straight-forward functionality to implement, though I understand the investment may be based on the actual demand for the service. Any update from other users or AT&T personnel monitoring the forum would be great. Probably like many who have requested this service, I have different outgoing messages I would like to use depending on circumstances and do not want to re-record, or hold the phone up to a speaker to make the recording each time. Being able to upload a file would be a perfect solution. In fact, allowing me to upload a number of them and then select which one I want to use via my phone would be idea.

How can I set up a default (pre-recorded) voicemail greeting on iphone 4s?

How can I set up a default (pre-recorded) voicemail greeting on iphone 4s?i dont want a custom one with my voice i want the pre-recorded where a lady says my number . how do i get that?

Voicemail is a cell phone carrier function. Contact your carrier to see if they have this option. If not, i'm sure you can download a sound file from the internet with a greeting and add your name. Then play it back on you PC while holding your iPhone near the speaker when recording the greeting to voicemail.

Can we change the voicemail greeting without deleting the first one?

can we change the voicemail greeting without deleting the first one? I'm going on vacation a would like to change the current greeting for a week without deleting the main one... is it possbile?

Ask your carrier. Voicemail is a carrier feature; they may have a way to set a temporary greeting.

I had my favorite actress record my custom voicemail greet (Iphone 6), but in all of the hustle and bustle, I didn't tap the 'save' button. Is there a miracle I can pray for? I assume it never existed in the device, but it DID record. Anybody???

I had my favorite actress record my custom voicemail greet (Iphone 6), but in all of the hustle and bustle, I didn't tap the 'save' button. Is there a miracle I can pray for? I assume it never existed in the device, but it DID record. Anybody??? It was recorded on March 25. 2015 around 10:45-ish (in NYCon 45th street), if that matters at all. Not like I can call her up and get her to do it again. Desperation, here, people!!
Stockardguru

I went in to voicemail, signed up with my pin and then opened it up clicked on custom greeting pressed record, she said the greeting, I pressed stop. There was a red line when I pressed stop. It was in the voice m ail app. I just forgot, being so nervous and all to press record.

My voicemail greeting sounds like I'm in a tunnel
