Poor audio quality when recording video

Hi everyone.
When i want to record a video on my iPhone 4, the quality of the audio is very poor, i can hardly listen to what i just recorded, but when i use voice notes, it sounds just fine, is there any problem with my software? Hope someone can help me.

Poor audio quality when importing CDs (but only some of them)

I am experiencing a bizarre audio quality problem:
When playing or importing tracks from CDs into iTunes 9.0.2, on some CDs there is very poor quality and an audible crackling (like an old scratched lp)whereas on others the quality is perfect. This translates to the iPod as well.
I've looked all over the internet and am now thoroughly confused. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

If you are hearing it both on iTunes playback and on the iPod, it is probably an importing problem, i.e. the track is bad.
When you import, do your Import Settings use Error Correction? If not, turn it on and re-rip one of the problem tracks.

Warping of audio quality when recording Synths in GarageBand

I have currently got back into using GarageBand and have noticed a strange error when recording a software synth sound.
When simply playing back the sound through my midi keyboard the sound is fine, but as soon as I hit record and start playing the sound is broken up, and when I stop recording it returns to normal again.
The sound is an ethereal type pad. It almost seems as if Garageband cant handle the sound complexity and is breaking it down but it seems unlikely giving the fact that the platform supports vst's like Absynth which feature plenty of such sounds.
Has anyone else encountered the same problem, and if so, is there a way to correct it?

Your actually using an AU not a VST inside GB. I also use Albino 3. What preset are you using. After you tweaked the Albino preset to your liking check albino signal level output to make sure your new tweaked preset is not overdriving its output. Back off on the master output of Albino if this is the case.
Also check the audio meters on the track you have assigned Albino to in GB. Make sure those levels are ok.
It could also be that you have tweaked a parameter in Albino to the extent that it is beyond the synths parameters to export that sound to GB without distortion, something which may not become apparent until you record it.

How do I make my audio better when recording videos?

what is the best way to enhance audio on videos I make with my iPhone 4?

      Thanks, Bobby
     All good advice.
     I went and checked out the link you provided, and started salivating immediately. But $200 is too much for me right now. Looked at the lav (what does that mean?) mic adjacent to it-- lovely, very portable, and almost affordable. I registered, and created a wish list. I think my wedding anniversary or something must be coming up soon...
       I was thinking about my barely-there audio today, and just for the fun of it checked my volume button. I NEVER turn it down. Never. But it was, by about half. Does this have any effect on recording, or just ringing? (Can you tell I'm almost totally techno-ignorant?)
       Something else occurred to me too. When I was shooting, twice so far (and I am cringing writing this), I was talking really low the whole time. Last night, cuz my hubby was asleep in the next room; this morning, because I didn't want to scare the birds I was videoing away...   uh.....   Well, DUH.
       Actually, I have already bought one of those little capsule mics, found it on Amazon. IT WON'T FIT ON MY PHONE WHILE THE CASE IS ON. And I am scared to death to take the case off! The thing's made out of glass, for cripes sake, and I am a CLUTZ.
       Thanks again!! I'll be coming up with plenty more stupid questions for quite a while, I'm sure

Poor audio quality when importing. Help?

Hello, everyone!
I have been having trouble importing videos recently, as it sounds good when played outside of premiere, but as soon as I import it into the program, the audio loses 70, maybe 80% of its quality immediately.
The video format is AVI and the audio qualiy is 128kbps, 2 stereo channels, at a 44kHz audio sampling rate.
The video (don't know if this matters, but can't hurt) has a data rate of 200kbps, 328 bits @ 29FPS.
I've tried everything in order to match the project pre-definitions and the sound input, with no success at all. It always sounds bad and I don't know what to do anymore.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Well, it says in the properties "2 stereo channels" but Premiere seems to identify it as mono for some reason. Tried creating mono and stereo projects, didn't help.

Audio Quality when Editing Video

Hello!
In my currenty project I have 2 video tracks and one separate audio track that I imported from garageband (via itunes). Right now, I'm trying to switch between the two video files, by spliting the video in the right chunks, and changing the opacity so only one or the other is showing (hopefully this makes sense).
When I split the video file or edit it, the audio file gets very fuzzy. In fact there's this weird sound in the background, that almost sounds like a record spinning around or something like that.
It's not in the itunes/garageband file, so iMovie is adding it or making it somehow.
Has anyone else experienced this?? And is there a solution?
Thank you!

Any recommendations on how to get better audio quality when recording on iMovie 09?

My audio seems to lag a little & not be entirely in sync with the video.

There is no flash built into the iPad. You'll just have to use additional lighting, or find an app (if any such exists) that allows you to take time exposures (you'll need to have the iPad on a stand).
Night shooting with an iPad really isn't practical, in my opinion, particularly since the camera is of such low resolution. I'd strongly suggest you just use a digital camera or, if you have one, a cellphone with a camera and a flash.

Poor audio quality when streaming from 4s

if i play tv programe on iPhone, the audio is ok, when i airplay to ATV some of the audio is muffled. any ideas what is causing this? I have switched sound check off.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
It might be a network issue. How far are all the devices from the router. Do you experience interference.
Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel.
Have you tied restarting both devices.

Problem with audio quality using Record Audio Comment

I am recording audio comments in Adobe Acrobat Professional using the "Record Audio Comment" tool. The sound quality is bad--very scratchy and has a noisy hum. I am using a good USB headset/microphone. Recordings outside of Acrobat are fine, e.g., in Audacity. I have tried two different microphones with both Acrobat 8 and 9 on two different computers (a desktop and a laptop) with similar results.
I have not found an audio quality setting in Acrobat. Is there some way to improve the audio quality when recording comments? I suspect Acrobat is compressing the audio so much in order to save file size, however, the poor quality makes it almost unusable.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions or advice. I know I can record outside of Acrobat and then add the pre-recorded audio as a comment, but that defeats the purpose.

Sorry to hear you are having problems.
A few things you can try:
1. Turning the volume of your TV up too high during a call can cause the kinds of audio problem you describe. Try turning the TV volume down and this should stop the 'feedback' problems you are having.
2. If you are using external speakers, then try switching these off and using the speakers built in to the TV. The TV was originally tested for Skype using the TV's internal speakers, so if you have a soundbar or other external speakers connected, the audio performance may suffer on Skype calls.

I want to be able to use airplay to stream audio to another iOS device, and then use that audio stream to be used when recording video instead of the built in microphone / microphone input. Is this possible?

A third-party app probably cannot obtain a stream from another app. To the best of my knowledge, such a capability is not provided in the software development kit, apps being "sandboxed" from each other and so allowed to communicate only in very specific and limited ways.
I'm not completely sure what you mean by "limitations on video capture". An iPhone, to the best of my knowledge, can natively record video only through it's built-in camera, and audio while doing video recording only through the built-in microphone or mic/headphone jack. There might be a video recording app that would allow audio input from an external device connected to the dock connector, but I'm not sure.

No audio when recording video iPhone 6 (4.7in)

I just got my 6 and love it, but I have noticed that I have ZERO audio when recording video, but rather some feedback.
I have tried rebooting and powering off/on. Nothing has worked.
Any help would be very much appreciated. I hope my phone doesn't have an issue.
Thanks,
Geoff

Nevermind, I had the back covered. Silly me to think it used the same microphone on the bottom of the phone..

When recording video on my ipad no audio is captured. Help.

When recording videos on my ipad it is not capturing any audio. I have verified the volume is up and that the microphone is functioning but for the life of me cannot figure out what I need to do to capture sound when recording video. Grr... I'm frustrated. Any help you could offer would be greatly appreciated.

I am now having the same problem. I did record something about a week ago and that has sound, but when I recorded something today...no sound. The master mute is NOT on and I can hear everything else just fine.

No Audio! on recorded video!!! - Thunderbolt

I have very little to no audio on my recorded videos. Seems to be either a rear mic problem or software issue has not enabled rear mic. Audio is fine when talking through front mic on phone calls. Volume levels at max settings. Anyone one else have this problem?

I'd like to say it's unbelievable that a company can do this and get away with it. This $600 phone records no audio when you use the video camera. None. After spending over an hour searching online, I find that it's a "known" issue; i.e., a defect that HTC was aware of and went ahead and sent it to market figuring the poor schmucks who bought it would just have to spend hours trying to figure out what was wrong. HTC now says they have no idea when a fix will be available, or, for that matter, IF a fix will be available. Can you imagine a car company doing this? Here's your new Toyota and we've advertised the bejesus out of it and made it seem like it's so cool and you need it yesterday, and you'll pay top dollar for it, and...oh, by the way, now that you've bought it, the windshield wipers don't work. It's a known issue, and, in the meantime, we suggest taking your time and money and installing an after-market, third-party windshield wiper assembly. We regret any inconvenience. THERE REALLY SHOULD BE CRIMINAL PENALTIES (i.e., prison time) FOR THIS SORT OF WILLFUL CONSUMER FRAUD. THEY'RE SAYING THEY'RE SELLING SOMETHING THAT WORKS, IT DOESN'T WORK, THEY KNOW IT, AND THEY GO AHEAD AND SELL IT ANYWAY. I ALSO THINK THIS MAY VIOLATE MAIL FRAUD LAWS. THIS COMPANY IS DISGUSTING AND PREDATORY.

Can you use midi sounds when recording videos on Photobooth?

Can you use midi sounds when recording videos on Photobooth?
Basically, i like to record videos of me singing and playing guitar or keyboard, but to get a good sound for the keyboard I'd like to be able to record the audio using MIDI sounds...
Ive got Logic, I've got M-Audio Fast Track Pro, into which i have my mic, guitar, and keyboard midi plaugged into. I can use it to record the mic and guitar on photobooth as they are audio inputs, however i can't use the midi sounds on the keyboard :/ I have tried having logic open with the desired MIDI sound selected whilst recording but it doesnt work...
Is there ANY way this is possible?
HELP PLEASE!
Thanks!

I Have just the same problem, if I shout very near the microphone i can just hear something, did you manage to solve the problem?

Losing audio quality when exporting from premiere pro

I have now had this happen with two different videos. I play the video in premiere pro and the audio is fine. I export the video and lose most of the quality of the audio portion. One project is a music session when exported I only get the main vocal the drums aren't audible only a buzz sound is made where the kick drum would usually come in. On another project is a thank you video for a family member and the audio is distorted after being exported. The audio sounds fine inside of the session. Once exported the audio will still work fine on my computer and my iphone 5s as long as I'm wearing headphones, once I try to play the video through my iphone 5s speakers the audio quality is gone, making the noises as previously stated. My iphone can still play other tracks fine but videos and audio exported from Premiere Pro are distorted. Any advice on how I can export the video so I wont lose audio quality when playing the video on an iphone? I know it's not my iphone speakers, they play other songs just fine.

The source files as far as the audio goes are wav files that I've pulled off of my desktop. My sequence settings are 1920 by 1080 at 29.97 frames per second. The export settings are H.264 with the preset YouTube (HD 1080 29.97 FPS) and I've also tried HD video 1080p 29.97 FPS. If this isn't enough information please let me know I'm in the learning phase. Audio wise the quality is set to high and I'm exporting at 4800 kh and a bit rate of 190. I've also tried a bit rate of 320 and 264 I think it is and still had the same problems. Let me know if I need to do screen shots I really want to figure this out.
Thanks for your help!
