Record Audio Editing Software

Hello,
I'm trying to capture a demonstration of audio editing
software, which while in use, plays back audio clips as you play
different segments of a sound clip. When I try recording a
demonstration, I can record my voice from my microphone, but I
cannot capture the audio generated by the audio software. Anyone
have any recommendations for how to capture the audio from the
editing software?
Thanks,
Mark

Apparently my sound card fits into the same category as
yours, even though my system exceeds the system requirements for
Captivate 3 (below). Have you seen any information on sound
requirements for Captivate 3?

Recording audio and software tracks simultaneously ?

recording audio and software tracks simultaneously ?
I am recording a software piano instrument track and a vocal audio track in logic Pro X. Problem#1
When the replace"X" button is selected,
when recording audio and a software track simultaneously,
I can hear the previously recorded instrument track that I am recording over.
(very distracting)
When recording a software instrument track alone (without simultaneously recording an audio track)
The software/midi instrument track will record over and erase existing data and I will not hear the previously recorded track. (as it is suppose to do) Problem #2
Both tracks are armed ready to record.
If the software instrument track is not highlighted, it will not record.
The audio track will record regardless of whether it is highlighted or not. Craig C.

GarageBand as Audio Editing Software

I am curious if I can use GarageBand (2) as an editing software for .wav or .mp3 files such as Sound Efx imported from a CD (via ITunes).
Is it possible to import, edit, and playback these sound efx on GB 2?
Otherwise, is there a recommendation on another application that would do this on Mac, and cheap? (below $75)

You could use GB, but you'll be using a screwdriver as a hammer (it'll work, but a hammer will yield better results...easier as well)
There is Freeware, Shareware, and Commercial software that will allow "byte level" editing of audio files (which GB can not do):

Audio editing software for a G4 PowerBook 1.5

Hi I've been given a G4 PowerBook to see if I'm tempted to move away from windows PC's to apple.
I'm looking for software that will work on the PowerBook that will let me edit all audio files and multitrack edit too, the current software I use on pc is adobe audition, any pointers?

Deciding whether or not to switch to the Mac by test-driving a six-year-old Mac with a four-generation-old processor is like deciding whether to buy a new car based on test-driving a six-year-old model. You won't get any useful information that way except an absolute certainty that you don't want to buy a six-year-old Mac. But it's more likely that, knowing nothing of how different your experience would be with a current Mac, you'll simply jump to the unwarranted conclusion that Macs aren't for you, and that would be a real shame. If you're interested enough to consider a Mac, give it a fair shake: try one that will give you an accurate idea of what you can expect from today's models.

Audio editing software

I just got a new mac book pro... what is a good program to edit MP3's with?

Audacity with the Lame encoder. You'll find more info about them on this user tip. As I found since I wrote the tip, Audio Recorder is not necessary:

Audition saying mic not connected, while other audio editing software does.

     Okay, just got the trial version to start with, was originally getting a directsound input error, which thanks to this board I was a
ble to fix with asio4all, and at least I'm not getting constant, persistant errors, and Audition is now allowing me to push the record button. Definately a step in the right direction.
     However now I've hit a roadblock, at first I thought it was just my mic, but I had the crappy sound recorder on windows vista try and that works perfectly fine, so I know it's not the mic. In Audio hardware setup it's telling me that the device is there and operating... And I know it's not a volume thing, as again, tested that out as well.
     And yet Audition doesn't realize there's any input audio at all. No levels. Can't for the life of me figure it out.

You've got a two stage process to select the mic in on the Vista OS.
You say you've already selected the appropriate sound device in Audition's Audio Hardware Setup. However, you also have to right click the little loudspeaker icon in the Task Bar and select "recording devices". On the menu that comes up you'll have a selection of things to record--make sure the "green tick" is on the mic input you're using.
Hope this helps.

Built-In Audio doesn't feed any Audio editing software like Soundtrack.

I am trying to record streaming audio from the internet through the built in audio in and out in the computer using Soundtrack. I can drag wav. files in and they play, I record with the built in mic, it plays, but audio coming internally doesn't show, itunes, internet etc.

The sound being played by applications is not really audio input. Audio input has to be coming from an external source, such as through the built-in mic or the audio input port, or possibly USB/FireWire if you have such a device connected.
You can connect a mini-stereo jack cable to your audio output port and feed it back into your audio input port.
Or you can get a program such as WireTap
http://www.ambrosiasw.com/utilities/wiretap/
that is specifically designed to record what other apps are playing.

Recording Audio and Software Instruments at the same time

Is there anyway to record a live audio track while recording the drum track with the ES-Blah blah blah? i can never remember the number.
Im sure that you have seen this question before, but at least you will get a few good points for answering the question again.

How To Start With Pre-Recorded Audio?

I've assembled audio-only recordings of dialogue between one and three hours long. What I haven't yet done and need help with is how to incorporate photos.
Those are photos of the analoque "snapshot" variety taken from home albums. Once they are scanned/digitized, I want to be able to insert them (not all with the same exposure time) into the audio track. (My audio editing software, Peak LE, allows me to set up "markers" which I'd like to use as insertion points for the photos, if that's possible in iMovie.)
My ultimate goal is to then burn each audio track with its photos to DVD playable with a DVD player.
Is what I'm after at all do-able with iMovie?
I also worry about how well the smallish album photos would look (both in size and sharpness) when viewed on a monitor. Any thoughts about this will also be very much appreciated.
Dave

Hi Dave - probably what you want are 'bookmarks' - see here, from the iMovie Help menu:
"Using bookmarks
You can place bookmarks in the timeline viewer to mark important frames in your video or audio. You can then jump from bookmark to bookmark using keyboard shortcuts, similar to using the Tab key to jump from point to point in a word-processing document. Bookmarks look like green diamonds.
To place a bookmark, position the playhead where you want the bookmark, and choose Markers > Add Bookmark or press Command-B.
To move to the next bookmark, choose Markers > Next Bookmark or press Command-].
To move to the previous bookmark, choose Markers > Previous Bookmark or press Command-[.
To remove a bookmark, click it in the timeline viewer, and then choose Markers > Delete Bookmark. If you want to remove all the bookmarks from your movie, choose Markers > Delete All Bookmarks.
If you move a clip, the bookmarks don't move with it."

Is there and ipad app that allows you to record and edit audio, but can record in the background? This would be to record voiceover auditions/podcasts while reading a script

Hi wondering if anyone might be able to help me out. I am an audio engineer and my wife is a voiceover artist. We just got the ipad thinking she could record her voiceover auditions on the go, but we can't for the life of us figure out how to record audio while reading a script off of her email.
Looking for an app that:
Either can record audio while in the background (garageband cannot)
OR Import text (copy paste I guess?) to read while recording
The app needs to be able to edit audio and export or email out an MP3 - by edit audio I mean trim, fades, and move around sections.
Anyone have any thoughts on how to do this? I have been looking around the web for answers for hours and can't find any. Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi- I've done a lot of research in this area and actually am just finishing a book on this subject which will soon be in the iBookstore.
The best app is TwistedWave. It allows easy editing and recording, and also allows you record while you are in another app (such as a script your agent sent in your email)
I recommend MiC by Apogee as your microphone, available at the Apple store.
My book which goes in depth in how to get the best sound as well as how to edit is called:
iVoiceover
Super. Simple. Recording.
I'll post here when it's live in the iBookstore!

I need easy audio and video converting and editing software?

I need easy audio and video converting and editing software that wont cost $400.

I highly recommend you try Video Monkey. It's free, though donations are certainly accepted, and does an excellent job of converting .mov to .wmv. Choose Best (2 Pass) for Encoding Speed and depending upon the size of your original file, uncheck 320 pixels wide to create a larger converted image. I set Quality to "Go Nuts".
Another good commercial program is Video Converter Ultimate for Mac. It works as video converter and editor. The version for 2 Pass conversion is approximately $69. , which is considerably less than the $400+ that Adobe Premiere is asking for its editor. I'd still prefer a freebie though, but there's little choice...

Recording Audio with iPod Nano - Request Software Stereo Monitor

I'm posting this message hoping that an Apple employee will read it...
The iPod Nano used in conjunction with the Belkin TuneTalk Stereo adapter turns the Nano into an excellent solid-state 16bit / 44.1KHz digital audio recorder. However, there is no visual indication that audio is being recorded on the Nano when recording is initiated - no stereo audio monitor with a volume indicator bar for the left & right channels is present. Most audio recording applications provide a left & right stereo volume indicator bar to display real-time audio clipping or low input volume... colored green at the bottom, yellow near the top, and red at the very top for audio clipping when the input volume is too loud.
While I understand that the main purpose of the iPod is for audio playback, I would ask Apple to include a stereo audio monitor in an upcoming iPod software update (soon). Perhaps as a starting point, you can borrow code for the live equalizer monitor that appears at the top of the iTunes window when the little right-arrow is pressed in the virtual LCD screen area.
While I have had no problems to date recording on the iPod Nano, it would be reassuring to know that the device is actually recording audio. It would be unfortunate to record an hour-long interview believing everything is fine, but then discover that no audio had been recorded. The presence of a stereo audio monitor would help deter this fear.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Jaspo

Recording Audio from an external source?

I was wondering if it was possible to hook up a cassette player to my G5 and be able to play old tapes and record them in Soundtrack pro then send them over to itunes. The ultimate goal is to get the songs from those cassettes onto an iPod. Someone mentioned software called Audacity but I was wondering if it could be done with STP.

Yeah sure you can use STP to record them, edit, and save to a file that you can import into iTunes.
You just need a way to connect your cassette player to your computer - an interface is usually recommended (the audio inputs on a computer are often problematic). The interface can be as minimal as a Griffin iMic.

Manually recorded audio is being truncated at beginning

I'm recording narration for a Captivate 3 movie of a software
demo. After I record the audio for a slide, I use the built-in
audio editor to replace the "ramp-up" (noise) at the very beginning
of the recording (usually about 0.7 seconds before the voice
speaks) with silence ("Insert Silence"). This technique has worked
quite well for several demos that I have created, and during
Preview my voice begins to speak about 0.7 seconds after the slide
appears. (This is what I want -- let the user first see the slide,
then hear the description. It "feels" quite natural.)
Today, however, although I have been doing the same thing in
the Audio Editor, I find that when I click OK and return to the
slide this silence at the beginning of the audio has been
discarded. In Preview, as soon as the slide displays the voice
immediately begins to speak; this "feels" too rushed. And, indeed,
if I edit the audio (Audio > Edit Timing > Slide) I find that
the silence that had been at the beginning no longer exists.
I can fix the audio timing, of course, by moving the audio
track to begin at 0.7 seconds rather than 0.0 seconds, but that's
one more manual operation to perform.
Any idea why this suddenly began happening? And how to
prevent it from happening?
Thanks,
Bill

Thanks, Rick. I am recording audio individually for each
slide, and I find an annoying "click" at the very beginning of each
recording as the audio signal starts its ramp-up to the first word
that I speak. I like to eliminate this click, so I select the
waveform from 0.000 till just before the voice starts, and insert
silence. I haven't found any problems in my headphones from doing
so.
In previous movies, Captivate retains this initial silence
(usually about 0.5 to 0.7 seconds) in the audio recording. In my
current movie, though, C3 is discarding the silence, and the audio
track starts immediately with my first word. Thus, I need to shift
the audio track to begin at 0.5 seconds into the slide...another
manual step on each slide.
Bill
