Please help me dial in my recording settings.

Hey guys I have done alot of YouTube voice work over the years but this digital stuff is beyond me haha. I really need some help on getting a noise gate working properly. I have a Rode Podcaster and am using Audition CC 2014.
My main issue is my mic is always hot so if I do so much as breath or move a piece of paper across my desk you can hear it and LOUD. I used to think a noise gate would just let your voice through and cut the rest of the stuff out. I dont know why I am having such a problem getting this setup with audition.
I open up a multitrack recording and selected Voice leveler and Noise gate but but the release is so aggressive that if even change the tone of my voice it will sometimes cut off or override me. I always shoot for -6 -3 db on my recoding but I usually do it in post to get the levels up there do to the fact if I sit that close to my mic you can hear me breathing and everything else. I set the noise gate to -20db but its still seems to be really aggressive. I have noise gating checked but I am not sure what the difference is between LEVEL DETECTOR and Gain Processor are? Which attack and release is which?
I guess I am just looking for some settings to get started so that I can sit at my mic and talk normally and be heard but have it mute out most the background nose. My levels sit at -47Db where my mic is sitting so I would think it could just fire up when it hears my voice but I dont know what is going on maybe I have a setting borked.
Here are my settings.
Thanks for any help!

Well, a couple of things...
First off, noise gating is rarely--if ever--going to yield perfect results for the application you're suggesting. I'm not just talking Audition--I'm talking every hardware or software noise gate I've ever used. The change in ambience as the mic opens and closes, coupled with the inevitable clipping of the beginnings or ends of words makes it a not-very-good tool for voice recording. I tend to use it for things drum kits with multiple mics but rarely for voice.
If I was you, before looking for an electronic solution, I'd be seeing what gains you can get with a physical re-arrangement of your recording set up. Obviously, I don't know the details but things like adding a pop screen, moving the mic a bit farther from the desk, making sure the papers you shuffle are in the null of the mic, perhaps hanging something soft behind you to deaden reflections, etc. may pay bigger dividends than noise gating.
Having said all that, setting up a gate tends not to be something I do by numbers but, rather, adjust by ear and instinct. Perhaps if you could post a brief sample of an untreated voice, we could have a play. Alas, this forum doesn't support direct uploads of audio so you'll have to use one of the many services that allow you to post for downloading...things like Dropbox or Box.net.

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

I made some amendments to my colour settings in PS CS5 and now everything prints black and white. Please help me to reset all the settings to default. This was after I tried to implement the steps set out in Real World Photoshop CS5. I stuggele to match the colours of my two screens, the one a laptop and the other a LCD and the printer, even after calibration with Spyder 3. Really lost at present.

Tap Settings / Wi-Fi. Tap the blue circle with an arrow to the right of your network then tap: Forget This Network.
Restart the iPad. Tap Settings / Wi-Fi. Tap the network name again then type in your password.
If that didn't help, try here > Apple - Support - iPad - Wi-Fi Assistant
And try turning off your router for 5 minutes, then turn it back on. Try typing in the password again.

1. Please learn JSP Coding standards. Your code is a mess.
2. It may be because you are setting your String variables to "" empty string which is not the same as null. Try doing the following...

Please help with Firewall and/or other Settings to Chat (MSN Messenger).

I've tried to chat on all (I think) the messenger programs available for Mac that use a hotmail account or .net passport - Adium, Fire, Mercury (current) and MSN itself - and I have the same problem with all of them: I keep getting cut off/disconnected from MSN! No problems with Yahoo messenger or Yahoo ID (although it can be a bit slow sometimes), just with .net passport account.
I'm pretty sure it's got something to do with Firewall and/or related settings, but after months of trying to fix it, I'm about to give up... please help!
Currently the following Firewall ports are all open:
6891 – 6900
1863
80
1080
5060, 9000, 9010 (UDP – typed like that)
including:
Personal File Sharing
Windows Sharing
Remote Login - SSH
and Printer Sharing.
In my most recent disconnected conversation, Mercury logged a "socket fired exception" error.
I'm on a broadband/adsl connection, shared with hubby's pc through ethernet (and he never gets disconnected from msn, btw).
ANY suggestions would be welcome, but apart from the above, please tell me how/where to find what you tell me to look at or for, because I'm a new Mac user (six months), and on top of that I'm blonde
Many Thanks!
Mac Mini (PowerMac10,1) Mac OS X (10.4.3) 1.42 GHz PowerPC G4 with 1 GB DDR SDRAM

Update:
Someone very kindly pointed out that my Firewall is actually Off (probably because I omitted to click on the Start button)... I did say I'm blonde
So now I'm really stumped... anybody got any ideas? Please?

PLEASE HELP - Value Repeats Through Many Records

I am working with JDev 10g Version 10.1.2.1.0. This is a recurring problem for me. I am working with a sample with many distinct records. However, when it is processed by my BPEL project, certain values do not remain unique. The program simply uses the value from the first record on the sample and applies it to each subsequent record, regardless of its true value. Specifically, this is happening for a date which I have mapped with a concatenation, though it has happened before. I have tested the XML in the transformation and the problem begins there. I have recreated the individual mapping, the entire transformation, and have considered rebuilding the project. Any advice? Please let me know if this is at all confusing and I will try to clarify. It appears to be a bug of some sort and I would be surprised if many others have not encountered the same problem.
Thanks.

That ^^ is what I have been asking, that IS the charge icon.
So, now, let's stay with this. you leave it charge, it is powered on. Does that charge icon -- the lightening bolt -- stay there the entire time it charges, or go away after a few minutes?
What percentage does the battery charge to? Look at Options > Status... ?

Please help! Having trouble finding records when searchign two tables.

Hi, I've been trying to solve this problem for several weeks now, and I have exhausted all of my knowledge and experience. I need help, and I hope someone here can give me some direction.
I am using VB 2008, and the CR that comes bundled with VS 2008 Pro. My database is a SQL Server 2005 CE v3.5 (a *.sdf file). I am connecting to the database through a dataset, and I am displaying the report in a CrystalReportViewer.
My dataset consistes of two tables:
1) tblCustomers which has a primary key "CustID", and contains only customer contact and personal information.
2) tblDateVisited which has a primary key of "VisitID", but it also has a column titled "CustID". Basically, every time a customer visits the business, details of that visit are recorded in tblDateVisited, and that record is associated with the customer by their CustID.
Here's what I'm trying to accomplish: I want to be able to display only Customer records when the customer has visited and that visit matches certain criteria. Right now, I am trying to match visits from the "tblVisitDate.PlayerType" column. If the customer has ever had a visit where they matched a particular player type, I want to see those customer records.
I don't know what I'm doing wrong, though. I can search a dataset if I am only querying one table and pulling records from that table. However, whenever I try to add a second table and perform queries on that table to get records from the first table, I can't return any records.
If it helps, I am trying to use one CrystalReportViewer to display multiple reports (user choice) and here's how I'm loading the report into the viewer:
Me.tblCustomersTableAdapter.Fill(Me.dsPlayerTypeReports.tblCustomers)
Me.tblDateVisitedTableAdapter.Fill(Me.dsPlayerTypeReports.tblDateVisited)
Me.ReportFile.SetDataSource(dsPlayerTypeReports.Tables(1))
I am suspicious that my problem is in the Tables(1) method. It confuses me that I can only assign one table as a datasource when I obviously need access to two tables to make this selection work.
Whatever the case, I'm at the end of my rope with this one. I'm not prone to giving up, but I'm at a dead end currently.
Any attempt to assist me with this will be greatly appreciated, successful or not.
Thanks in advance!
-Will

Hi
I finally figured this out (or at least a way of doing it that seems to work!
In VS create a new, empty datasource with no database objects in it. You'll get a message saying asking if that's what you really want to do.
Add a TableAdapter to the datasource using the 2-table SQL statement with a join but no WHERE clause, in my case:
"SELECT tblMedia., tblTitles. FROM tblMedia LEFT JOIN tblTitles ON tblMedia.ODGMediaID = tblTitles.ODGMediaID "
Make sure Fill a DataTable and Return a DataTable are checked.
Rename the TableAdapter and DataTable to something sensible.
Design the report using the new Dataset.
To display the report in VB with user generated WHERE clause:
strWhere = "WHERE ID=..." etc
strSQL = "SELECT tblMedia., tblTitles. FROM tblMedia LEFT JOIN tblTitles " & _
"ON tblMedia.ODGMediaID = tblTitles.ODGMediaID " & strWhere
Dim conn As OleDbConnection = New OleDbConnection(strConn)
Dim da As OleDbDataAdapter = New OleDbDataAdapter(strSQL, conn)
Dim dsReport As New DataSet
da.Fill(dsReport, "DataTableName")
Dim rpt As New ReportDocument
rpt.Load(PathToReportFile)
rpt.SetDataSource(dsReport)
crReportViewer.ReportSource = rpt
