Nokia N8 strange noise in recorded clips

Hi guys,
I'm not sure if this topic is for this subforum but if it's not please move it to the place.
And now the problem.Last night I recorded some clips on a concert and to my surprise when I played the clips at home there was some strange noise in them(which is not constant but just watch the video bellow and you'll get what I mean).I'm not completely sure why is that happening.But this is the first phone I hear it on.Maybe this has to do something with the noise canceling microfone freaking out.Or the mics are just way too sensitive and all the noise is too much for them to handle.Sadly enough there is no option to turn down the sensitivity or the noise canceling function.Here is an example of what I mean

Any help will be appreciated.

No mate you are't the only one 
I record a lot of music and I happened to tahke the N8 along last night myself and got this

You can hear the same noise on it.  It's clipping caused by high sound pressure overwhelming the microphones.  Here is the same song I recorded at the same time on a digital recorder with better mics.

This is what I do for a hobby . http://turnitupto10.blogspot.com/
I hope to dub the recording on to the video later somehow. 
I think the N8 is the best video recorder outside DVR devices that I have come across so far. 
I actually came here tonight to ask if anyoine knew the best [and cheapest] software to use to strip the audio and re dub my own audio onto the video.
But for now the answer to your question based on my experience is ;
The N8 is about as good as it gets in a phone,
the problem is the microphone, and
the microphones are very good for a phone.
Nice clip by the way

    It could be hard drive noise. You might want to try running SMART Utility:
    http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/systemdiskutilities/smartutility.html
    You can download the demo and run it several times for free. It will give you a comprehensive view of the physical health of your drive. It seems to be somewhat more sensitive than Disk Utility, and may be able to detect impending drive failure sooner.
    If you haven't already, run the extended version of the Apple Hardware test--always a good thing to do with a used machine.
    Good luck!

  • High Pitched Noise When Recording From iSight Camera

    I apologize if this has been asked before. I did a search on here as well as with Google.
    Whenever I record a video clip using the built in iSight camera I notice that there is a constant high-pitched noise embedded in the clip. You don't hear the noise during recording, and otherwise the audio is crystal clear during playback, but I can't seem to figure out what is causing this noise. Video clips I import into iMovie don't have this problem. Has anyone else experienced this problem? How can I prevent this from happening with future recordings?

    Hello obsidianspider
    I am sorry to report that you are one of about ten people who have posted here about audio noises during video recordings with MacBooks. I listened to your YouTube clip, and I believe you are hearing something. I can hear the muffled "thumping" of background noises being amplified because there is no voice or other close sound being recorded in your video, but my old ears do not hear anything high pitched in your video (or anywhere else for that matter.)
    I am sure Apple is aware of the issue, but with so small a number reporting this issue among thousands of MacBooks sold, I understand why there is not yet a kBase technical article on this subject.
    I expect that Apple searches its warranty & repair work for quality issues and trends, but, if you have not (and do not) contact Apple or your retailer for service on this issue, please report your problem via MacBook Feedback so Apple can accurately record the magnitude of this problem. Unlike posting in this user forum, "Feedback" reports go directly to Apple.
    We users who post here have found no solution yet, so the problem appears to require professional service for resolution.
    However, if you are willing to try a test, please post back and tell us whether video or movie clip recording applications other than Apple's give the same audio noise you hear when using iSight with iMovie. Apple's QuickTime Pro has already been tested and found to exhibit the problem.
    If you have access to an external microphone that can be located away from your Mac while you record video, you could also test to see whether you are recording a physical sound coming from your Mac or electronic noise being produced within your Mac's circuitry.
    If you want to read the suggestions we have offered for minimizing your audio noise in video recordings, take a look at the suggestions offered in Eemma's thread, which was the first to report this problem. The suggestions for minimizing noise start here:

  • N97, strange noise inside the phone

    Hei,
    today I noticed a strange noise when waving the phone. It was heard behind the camera.
    The noise was  heard after taking the battery, sim & SD card away, but not when the key pad was opened.
    It sounds like something were lose inside the phone.
    So went to Nokia service point. There we noticed that the other two 97's, that they had there,  had the same noise although not so loud as in mine.
    The service guy had not noticed the same before and told me to wait until he gets more information.
    Has some of you the same problem?

    I hear a strange noise in my phone too. After a bit of testing I realised that something is moving slightly only when the phone's keyboard is closed. When you open the keyboard and shake the phone, nothing is heard. I suppose the plastic hinges thingy mechanism that holds the keyboard makes the noise and when the keybord is close its a bit loose and makes the sound. I also think that this is the reason why on some phone the vibtation sound weird- cause this plastic thing rattles about when the phone is vibrating.
    Can someone confirm this?

  • Satellite A350 - Microphone make strange noise

    When talking to people on Skype and MSN people say that my microphone makes this strange noise. They can vaguely hear me over the noise. People say it is kind of like a gurgling noise.
    At first I thought it would be a driver issue so using Device manager in windows I searched online for an update for my Realtek High Definition Audio and it told me the version was up to date.
    I went from Vista to Windows 7 about 5-6 months ago, Maybe a problem occurred when i reinstalled my drivers? Any advice would be appreciated!
    Computer specifications:
    -Windows 7 Ultimate SP1
    -Intel Core 2 Duo CPU P7450 2.13GHz
    4.00GB RAM (2.99 Usable)
    Thanks in advance

    Have you noticed this using original Vista OS you got with your notebook?
    To be clear: Skype or MSN is not relevant for mic testing. I use Skype daily with my A300 and some people hear me good and some of them have reported that sound is pretty bad.
    Can you please make a small test and record your voice on Win7?
    Go to the "Start" menu. Under "Programs," select "Accessories." Click "Sound Recorder."
    Check quality with internal and external mic if you use headphones.

  • Im from argentina and i got a problem with my earphone of the iphone 4s when i make a call i earphone or speaker make and strange noise or like an interference during the call and when i finish the call still doing the same noise and i dont know why?

    my eraphone of my iphone 4s white unlocked make strange noises during the call and still doing the noise like an interference or saturing the spekaer

    This is a common problem with iPhone 4s (and IOS 5)  There isn't ' anything you can do about it, so you're best bet is to go down to the store and get an exchange. If you have an older iPhone (3gs/4) roll back your update from IOS 5 to IOS 4.

  • AP54G generates a strange noise while operating

    Hello guys!
    Is that normal, that my MSI AP54G Access Point generates a silent, strange noise (like a TV when there's no signal), while it is operating? I noticed it one or two days ago and I don't know, whether it is a normal thing or not. Ummm... I think, I have to tell you, that some days ago I dropped the AP (accidentally) from about one meter high... so I think that can be the reason why the AP emits such a strange noise. Anyway, it is operating perfectly, it has a very strong and stable signal and I'm fully satisfied with it, but I'm afraid, that this noise could cause some trouble in the future, for example burn down the AP or even explode it?
    Thanks for your help!
    Greetings:
    Gery

    Thanks... you are very helpful...
    Don't you guys use this AP? I'm the only one, who uses it? Well, I think not.
    And what about you guys working for MSI?? You don't read the forum of your own company??

  • Burned CD's: strange noise on inner tracks

    Hi everybody,
    since I upgraded my system with a S-ATA DVD burner, I get a strange issue when I write my playlists to CD-R's.
    The burned disc has got a persistent noise on the inner tracks and the more the track number raises the more I can hear the noise.
    It's not like static or something like that.
    It's a weird looping sound that accompanies the track from start to end.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Kind regards

    Hi I'm having the same problem here. I've been using iTunes for ages now. Very strange. I've tried burning via another CR Rwiter but still the same strange noise and on different places. Lookst like a software bug to me. Anybody got lucky solving this?

  • Missing recording clip - PLEASE HELP!

    Recording some speech clips in GB and went back to them this am to find them missing... I did discover that if I move the clips back and forth through the track, they shorten (cutting off) other clips that take up the same space... So if I slid a recorded clip over too far, and it covered over my previous clip is it gone forever?
    I'm working on a senior project and it's due tomorrow and now I'm missing audio
    PLEASE HELP ME!

    I was afraid of that.
    I wish that didn't happen. I would think that if you slide a clip over, it might push the other clips along with it, or hide it underneath or something to prevent loss of data...
    I think ACID worked like that.
    bummer.
    thanks.

  • My macbook (2009) keeps making strange noises. What to do?

    Yesterday, my macbook started to make strange noises. A little scratchy noise. Like there's somthing wrong with the Fan or something.
    I called Apple Support, but they told me i had to reset the SMC and PRAM/NVRAM. I triend, but the noise is still there.
    Does anyone know what to do?? Is it bad?
    Its a really annoying sound.

    It could be the fan.....or the hard drive.....this is a link to a data recovery firm that has posted the various sounds made by failing hard drives.......

  • Strange noise from Touch ID sensor on iPhone 6

    I dont know how I found that out, but try laying your finger on the home button on your iphone 6 and listen closely. I hear a strange ticking noise, like its generated by some kind of voltage?! Like the sparking of the gas-cooker. And if you lay your finger on the ring around the button you can hear that noise more frequent/quicker. Any idea about this?

    WHen I noticed this strange noise I made some search on google and found only one post about the same problem and an answer that confirmed the sound on another device so I'm not the only one in this case. Strange, but the page I found yesterday is not available today, the post has been deleted I'm afraid they think I'm stupid if I take back the phone with this problem, because the sound has no effect on the phone, its working properly. But I want to know what can cause this...
