Recording and Sound Playback

I have made video clips in both Photobooth and Quicktime but cannot hear the audio on playback. I check the sound settings and midi settings and even did a PRAM set but no sound play on clips that I create

I have a movie on disk in mpeg. So I bought the upgrade for Quicktime, QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component for Mac OS.
I am able to play the movie on imovie but there is no sound. Have you any ideas as to how to fix it?
Regards,
Deb.

Problem with recording and sound on Pavilion ze1000 series

I have an old Hp Pavilion ze 1250 running Windows XP (sp2) with 1gb Ram.
I'm trying to convert some cassette tapes to digital (with Audacity).
My problem: When I try to record using Audacity, it records about 10 seconds and then hangs. When I click Stop and try to play the 10 seconds back, it freezes and won't play anything. (After that, even if I import an mp3 file to work on, it won't play that either.) It also causes all the sound to go off throughout the computer. Songs will "play" in WMP but there's no sound in the speakers or headphones. (The Microsoft logo music won't play either when I turn the computer off.) I've tried resetting the volume and checking if anything is muted. Nothing .
I restart the computer and everything is fine.....sound works and Audacity plays.....until I try to record again.
I thought that this was only an Audacity problem....until I tried to record 60 seconds through Sound Recorder. The exact thing happens. It records about 10 seconds of audio, then freezes and refuses to playback. All the sound goes off throughout the computer and nothing solves it except Restart.
My sound/audio device is Conexant AC-Link Audio.
The Sound Playback, Sound Recording, Voice Playback, and Voice Recording are all defaulted to HP VIA Audio.
I have updated the audio driver. Recording is enabled. Is there something else I need to do?
Thanks.

Thank you for your reply.
I'll try some of those suggestions and see if that helps.

Recording and Sound

If you turn the volume down in the MSIPVS while you are recording it doesn't record any sound?! I thought the audio source comes from the cable and not the sound card? I have the tv card audio out to my line in on the soundcard.
Please let me know if i'm mad....

Hi,
All the audio has to pass through the sound card to be heard or recorded.
There are multiple audio sources, some of which are for devices external to the sound card (Line in, Mic, CD, Aux etx), and some of which are generated by the sound card (e.g. WAV and MIDI sources).
There are two virtual mixers available, one for Recording and one for Playback.
The playback mixer operates as a conventional audio mixer, in that you can adjust the volumes of the various sources and produce a mixture of multiple sources simultaneously. Usually there are options to Mute sources you don't need, which might reduce background noise a bit.
The Recording mixer is a frustratingly different kettle of fish, because it (usually) doesn't let you produce a MIX of different sources simultaneously. Although there are "faders" for each of the sources, it will only let you record from the source which is checked. If you want to record a mixture of sources, you have to select "What U Hear" (or similar) and use the Playback mixer to mix the sounds.

Buzz on audio when recording and in playback - new mini mac?

Up until now I have been recording on a Macbook Pro, however I have recently moved onto a Mac Mini and that's when this problem started...
I am having trouble because when I play audio and the R button is on theres a high fuzz/ buzz/ ringing sound along with what I am playing. This is recorded and I can hear it when I listen back too. What's weird is that there's a dead silence between the notes. When recording software instruments through a usb midi keyboard it works and playback as it should.
I have tried changing the usb input of my sound card, using different instruments incase it's a buzz from that, changing the leads, and also checked the sound card still works fine with my old Macbook Pro. All this is fine. (I use an Alesis IO4 sound card)
All I can think is theres something I don't understand that I haven't done properly in Logic since installing it on the Mac Mini which differs to how it is set up on the macbook. That, or something is wrong with the Mac Mini itself however it's brand new from Apple.
Please help if you can shed any light on this.
I hope this makes some sense!

I would suggest providing an audio sample of the "fuzz/buzz/ringing sound" so that people can better guess what the problem is.
Noise comes from many places, and there are many types of noise.
Hard to take a shot in the dark otherwise.

Equium A110-276 DVD image and sound playback problems

A couple of months ago my Equium A110-276 stopped playing DVDs correctly.
The sound and images on the DVDs are slow, sometimes skip and are generally out of sync.
I downloaded the latest drivers however it didnt make any difference. If i stream a video from youtube for example the picture and sound are both fine.
Anyone think of anything I can do to fix it?!
Thanks
Siobhan

Hi
If the video stream looks ok then everything seems to be ok with the graphic card.
I think either there is something wrong with the CD/DVD driver or with the software itself.
I have investigated a little bit in this forum and found this thread regarding a very similar issue:

Recording LPs with smart recorder and sound quality off.....

Hi,
I have X-Fi Extreme music card on my PC and trying to record some LPs with SmartRecorder. These are classical LPs and I find that when played back, the orchestra (violins, choir, etc) sound like this was recorded in a tin can. Any ideas why this would be? I connected all my cables accordingly and?am still?getting this problem.

Which type of connection are you using there?
Do you have preamp stage w/ RIAA there before soundcard (you have connected the PC into your stereo system just the way
like you connect a casette recorder or you have connected your turntable w/ RIAA preamp directly into soundcard) or
have you connected your turntable (w/o RIAA + preamp) directly into soundcard?
If you're using the latter method, you need to have EQ w/ RIAA compensation added into signal (you need some ASIO/VST
capable recording software which allows you add FXs into signal (Hermann Seib's VSTHost) and an EQ capable for
compensation curve +20dB (20Hz) - -20 dB (20 kHz) (ddmf:IIEQ). It's possible that you
can't get levels set high enough w/o adding some gain plug-in into signal path. You can use Sonalksis FreeG VST (stereo)
for this (in VSTHost, place (route) the FreeG either after or before the EQ (try which works better for you)).
Also, check if the recording source is set correctly (w/ "What U Hear" option you get all added effects added
into signal (EAX, CMSS) so it's best to set input as Line-In) and turn all effects OFF.
If you record into lossy format as mp3 or wma, check that the bitrate is set high enough (I suggest you use bitrates
256 - 320). Also, do not use addons like Chrystalizer, etc..

Pause FMR recording and video playback capture not working??

Hello!
I'm trying to record full motion recording in CAPTIVATE, but the PAUSE feature looks like it is not working for me. I even tried to modify the shortcut key, but nothing works. Anybody else have this trouble or am I missing something obvius here?? I thought that maybe the FMR mode cannot be PAUSED, but nothing on that matter can be found in the manual.
Also, I'm trying to produce e-learning content for PREMIERE and SOUNDBOOTH. I've noticed that video playback within PREMIERE is not captured by CAPTIVATE. I've seen on the forum that others had this issue. Is version 5 of captivate behaving the same? Is it still not possible to capture onscreen video playback?
Any info here would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

I'm having the same problem where Captivate 5 in FMR doesn't respond to the Pause key, however I'm noticing that there hasn't been a solution supplied here.
Is there another location/forum where Adobe representatives for Captivate are actively monitoring questions and problems for this product?

Record and Streaming playback

Hi guys I am a newbie to FMS, got excited about it when I heard that Amazon cloud services are now including FMS for a marginal increase in cost.
So all I am looking to do is:
1) Record off a web cam and store the video using FMS
2) Play the video stream using FMS.
If someone could point the way to some sample code, then I will be off an running.
Thanks a bunch.

Go through FMS documentation - it should have simple code snippets for you to get started off.

Audio drops mid recording and/or playback

I recorded a video on my 3gs phone last night and it isn't that long, maybe 4 minutes in length. I was able to upload to my computer and when I went to play it back the audio drops halfway through. I checked on my iPhone and the audio drops out there as well. Anyone know why or how this happened that when I'm recording something the audio just stopped being recorded while the video was still recording?

DAQ Record and Playback

I have a PCI-6534 DAQ card in a PC and I am trying to record and then playback some motor encoder signals. I used DAQAssistant to create the code and then I have tried to modularize it a bit. I'm guessing I broke something, but I am not sure what.
My problem is that the playback refuses to work and gives me various errors depending on which "lines" parameter I pass in. The lines parameter I use is the same on the recording functions and the playback.
I started by first trying to record on Dev1/port0/lines0:2. Recording worked fine and it produced the required datafile. When I go to play back the file, I get the message
Partial use of physical lines within a physical port is not supported by this device, given the requested Sample Timing Type.
Consider specifying the entire port and tristating the lines you do not want driven.
Property: SampTimingType
Requested Value: Sample Clock
So then I go back and record on Dev1/port0. Again it records fine, but on playback with the same device, I get...
Requested creation of a separate channel for each line is not possible when a digital port is specified as the physical channel.
Specify a range of digital lines, such as "Dev1/port0/line0:7", as the physical channel.
Physical Channel Name: Dev1/port0
HoKay, so I go back again and record on "Dev1/port0/line0:7". Again it records fine and on playback I get...
When writing, supply data for all channels in the task. Alternatively, modify the task to contain the same number of channels as the data written.
Number of Channels in Task: 8
Number of Channels in Data: 1
I am at a loss as to why I can record so easily, but playbacks are a b***h. Help!
Attached are my VI's that I am using.

I think I figured it out.
When I created the DAQ VIs using DAQAssistant, I did so by selecting individual lines. When I changed things around to get playback to work, I simply changed the text field going into the lines to be "Dev1/port0". I could never get this to work.
I went back and regenerated the playback VIs using DAQAssistant, this time specifying a port output (instead of lines). This time it read and played the data fine.
The moral is that if you use DAQAssistant to generate VIs, be very careful when you change the parameters on those VIs.
Attached is my new test program which works well.

I am using logic to record a podcast and using soundboard to use as a playback for music and sound effects. I'd like to soft patch sound board into logic, and still use my interface for recording audio from the other members of the podcast.

I am using logic to record a podcast. I have a presonus firestudio mobile for my interface so I can record several people at the same time. I'm also using Soundboard for a playback system for music and sound effects. I'd like to know how to soft patch Soundboard into Logic while still using the Firestudio interface to record the other members of the podcast. Does anyone know how to do this? and if so can you tell me how to do it? Thanks.

Thanks. Now, since Apple failed to provide an audio in jack for their new and improved iMacs (mine has one), all I can suggest is that you contact AppleCare, since you have 90-dqy free phone support. If need be, you might reconsider your purchase, but that's for you to decide.

Record sound and manipulate playback

Hi there,
we try to make a mobile app in which the user should be able to record a sound and after that it should automatically play that sound.
This should be possible but we want to transform the sound so the voice is "sweeter" (higher).
Is this possible?
Has anyone already made some experience with this?
Best
omi

recording sound its simple project. but it transformation may require some math skills because sound its numbers from -1.0 to 1.0

I can't get my vocals to record and playback!

The sound bars move and I can hear myself on my speakers but my voice doesn't record or playback. I'm micing directly in to my computer. My midi keyboard plays and records and plays back. I have it set to vocals and male R&B, monitor on.

Did you figure this out? I am a first time user. I have a mic, plugged in to my mac and I'm trying to lay vocal tracks...can you help me?

External guitar won't monitor on playback. Will record and playback.

When playing into Logic using Orpheus I can hear my guitar. as soon as I start the transport it disappears from monitoring but works, and is heard, in record mode . What's going on! It will playback once recorded.

Hi... thanks for your reply.
I don't really understand the flow through Logic and Orpheus but I'm sure that this has worked correctly with the default settings before... I have tried with "i" on and off and don't really understand what it does but it doesn't seem to make any difference.
I don't know if anything in Logic is corrupted.. Can you somehow throw away the preferences and reset it?
I don't understand the monitoring section of Orpheus and run it in default mode which is DAW and don't use the MIXER settings.
I'll check out low latency mode but ams sure that it is unchecked.
It's a real drag to record an electric guitar ...you get the sound of the guitar with the music stopped which disappears when you go to play mode... comes back when you hit record and play's back once recorded.
WHAT IS WRONG IS THAT FOR SOME REASON THE TRACK'S SIGNAL IS NOT RUNNING THROUGH LOGIC. I'M SURE THAT IT'S SOMETING, LIKE YOU SAY, IN THE SOFTWARE STOPPING THE SIGNAL GOING THROUGH LOGIC'S AUDIO ENGINE??? IT SHOULD WORK WITH SOFTWARE MONITORING TURNED ON???
