Recording Audio for Playback

Hello,
I work with a university making language learning CDs in
Flash CS3 which are often used in locations where there is no
internet access.
I have the impression from my readings that audio can only be
recorded for playback using the FMS and not locally. Is this
accurate? We would like to allow students with no internet access
to play back recordings they have just made of their attempts to
say their new words.
Any advice?
Thanks for reading!

Yes, the audio is never stored even temporarily stored on the
users machine. It is streamed in real-time up to the server and
stored as .flv files which can later be played back from the
server. There is a company I know of which offers this server
recording as a service. It's called www.userplane.com The company I
work for has our own FMS servers and let users record to the server
but this is a lot more work then just using a company to provide
you with this service. So you can go either way. But there is audio
stored on the users machine.

  • Record audio for the video

    Hi i am trying to see if there is some way to record audio like with the audio recoreder they sell for previous models but the thing is that it does not work with the video ipod
    so how do you record audio and speeches ect so i can do pod casts and stuff?
    also trying to record the my band on it

    Do you mean you want to use the iPod as an audio recorder?
    Currently it is not possible as there are no compatible microphones.
    There are a few in the works by other companies, but as of yet, they have no firm release date (Spring).

  • Recording audio for a short film ideas.

    Im gonna record the audio for a shortfilm in a month and im looking for options for doing this, i want to record directly into my hard drive and i thougth to use garageband 08 for that, but its important that in the postproduction everything syncs perfectly (audio and video) so i was wondering if logic or garageband recorded sound at 29.97 fps, or any software from apple, i have quicktime pro and logic studio (but im very new in logic so thats why i was thinking to use something much more simple like garageband or qucktime).
    im gonna use the Usb8 from alesis to record the audio to the computer.
    Any ideas please??
    thanks a lot.

    use garage band, use Logic, or whatever you like. As long as you're recording audio separately from the video, you'll need to sync it later. recording to the camera eliminates this step (ideally) by syncing the video/audio on the fly.
    There is a more complicated and accurate way of doing this, but it sounds like this might work for you:
    If you're gonna use your computer to record, make sure you slate each take. Use one of those fancy-pants clacker-slates just like the big hollywood directors. Snap it before each take and use that for sync.

  • Unable to record audio for Voice Over from camera

    Hi All:
    I have an early 2008 black macbook, FCE4 and a canon HV 30 with an xlr adapter and mic. Imported all my footage just fine. Now I want to record a voiceover track using my nice mic through the camera. I plug in the camera to the computer via firewire. When I go to Voice Over Tool and try to select DV Audio, it tells me this:
    "The Selected sound input device is unavailable.
    It may be in use by another application, disconnected or improperly connected, or may be conflicting with a video output device."
    Uh, okay. I check the manual, it warns me that "External Video" under the View menu must be to OFF. Problem is, there is NO "External Video" option whatsoever in the View menu! None! Whatsoever!
    My firewire port is functioning, the computer knows there's a camera attached to it (I checked the Hardware overview, and surely enough the computer detects the camera)...
    What am I doing wrong?

    I have Built-In Microphone, Built-In Input and DV Audio as source options...but I only get the above-mentioned error message when I select DV Audio. Even when I don't have the firewire & camera connected, I get that same error message when I select DV Audio...which makes me think that the computer doesn't detect the camera, but I know it does because the computer detects a Canon HV 30 in System Profiler (and I can capture w/o a problem...I just click Capture and press escape when the tape end is reached).
    And what I meant earlier about capturing is that a window does pop up whenever I'm capturing from my camera and it shows the footage during capture, but the computer does not automatically respond to just my plugging the firewire cable in (idk if it's supposed to recognize it and ask me if I want to capture or not, but it doesn't...I have to prompt it to capture)
    I'm also puzzled that I don't have an External Monitor option under View...I'm not using an external monitor, and the only thing close to External Monitor under the View menu is Video Out, under which there are: Refresh Video Devices, Toggle Last, Canvas Playback & Digital Cinema Desktop Preview - Main.

  • Can record audio for 10 seconds then stops

    I have just put a new mobo in my agp G4 and the audio in jack seems to have a problem . I can get it to work but for only 10 seconds at a time. It will record but then stop and start again in 10 seconds. The audio out works fine no problem with that.
    I've never had his happen before. Is there a fix for this?
    thanks

  • Recording Audio For Timeline With Logic Pro In Real Time

    I do commentaries on videos and was wondering if there is an easier way than what im doing now..
    Right now I export my video from premiere to a bad quality version and import it into logic pro and record the commentary there.
    Then I have to bounce the audio and import it back to premiere.
    Is there a way to get the same plugins that are in logic pro to be used in premieres audio mixer??
    A dream come true would be that I could just record directly into premiere with all of the effects coming from logic pro.
    Anyone know of any kind of solution or trick or anything so I dont have to keep going back and forth and to make this easier???
    Thanks for any info I really appreciate it!!

    I just hate going back and forth from premiere and logic and all the extra time wasted exporting the files so they will work with eachother.  
    I just thought of something else.... Is there a way that I can get the video in premiere to play the same time I push record in logic pro and maybe sync with it?
    Like if I push record in logic the video in premiere will start playing then when I push stop in logic pro it will stop in premiere or at least stay in sync with it so the timing will be right?
    if anyone has any ideas throw some out there I would love to hear them.
    Thanks!

  • Delay in recorded audio on playback

    Hi, tracking vocals today and after I record a vocal and hit play, I don't hear anything immediately and then it pops in after a few seconds....wasn't doing this yesterday...
    thanks

    If you have any delay producing plugins on the track you record on or on the master track the delay is normal. However you can avoid it by using the 'low latency mode' switch which is located in the transport bar:

    If the switch is not present, rightclick in the transport area to open the following menu:

    In the menu you just have to tick the highlighted square:

  • Recording iChat Audio for Podcast

    I'm struggling to find a solution for recording audio for podcast interviews and am thinking that perhaps there's an easy answer I'm overlooking.
    I have no problem connecting to an interview subject using iChat, however, my voice levels are only 50 to 75 percent as strong as the subject's. This same situation occurs when I'm using Skype. I have all of my input levels set to maximum.
    Tests with Ecamm Call Record and Audio Hijack Pro have a similar problem.
    Also, is there a way to record audio directly from iChat with these third-party apps?

    Umm, a Pretty problem.
    I would first test with several Buddies to get their opinion on how loud you seem to them.
    I can turn up my volume but it still requires that I speak as loud as I would in a conversation and face the Mic. If I sit too far back from the mic I get too quiet no matter how I talk.
    I find this with people who test with me who confirm they have System Preferences > Sound > Input volume cranked up. (the worst are Australians sitting outside on the veranda for Breakfast and trying to show me the view with a laptop)
    As I have two Macs sitting quite close to each other I do get feedback if I connect the two in a Chat so I have to pay attention to the volume setting.
    Having said all that if the resultant recording seems too low in Volume at You end I would personally use iMovie 6 to teak the volume up when I spoke - either by Extracting it and cutting it up and increasing those portions or by using the purple and yellow dots to do so.
    The Eccam page actually says this...
    Create a Podcast
    Conference Recorder makes it easy convert your QuickTime movies into MP3 or AAC format. Simply drag a recorded QuickTime movie to the included "Convert to MP3" or "Convert to AAC" utilities, and let them do the work for you. Additionally, Conference Recorder records each side of the conversation on separate tracks, allowing for easy post-editing. The included "Split Movie Tracks" utility will automatically export each movie track to a separate file.
    This would mean that you could turn up the track for your Audio in Quicktime Pro
    Launch the file but not Playback
    Go to the Window Menu > Show Movie Properties
    Select the Audio Setting tab.
    Increase the Volume db on one Audio track and see if it your speech by playing.
    Adjust as required (Change track if required).
    Save File to save the adjustment.
    Hope this helps.

  • What is the best free audio recording app for ipod?

  • Help in uccx (leave audio recording file for caller)

    Hi,
    on the attached snapshot for scripting "leave recording audio for caller" when the agent out of office, it's work successfully but when second call comes over in this case the same file is recorded, so how can i make it to record as
    recording1.wav
    recording2.wav
    recording3.wav
    Thanks 

    Hi
    You can use a 'set exception' step to set a ContactInactiveException trigger to go to a Label.
    Do this before the 'recording' step - if the caller then hangs up, it will go to the Label that should be placed so that the steps to upload the recording are completed.
    Currently the script will just stop if the caller hangs up.

  • Can I, with a Q4Samson XLR microphone and a Shure X2U adapter, record audio to an iPad?

    Hello to all!
    Have been using this XLR microphone and Shure X2U combo to record voiceovers for my videos and also record  songs on my iMac. How can I use the same equipment to record audio for videos which I want to shoot with my new iPad mini2?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards and have a great day>
    Dr. Somanna

    yeah - you can do it, but you need an adapter.  The earphone jack on a pad is a special jack with stereo headphone uot put and a seperate mic in channel.  The adapters i have seen are usually built to accomodate a standard 1/4 in - into the pad, like the one in the attached link.  In theory, you could use the lineout on the mac, to a 1/4 in male - then into this adapter to get it back into the pad.   Somebody probably makes the cable you need with the 1/4 shift, but I couldn't find one.
    Options - in you notes, insted of copying the file, put a link to the podcast

  • Need help recording audio since upgrading to Captivate 5.5

    I've been using Captivate for several years so I've become accustomed to recording vloiceovers for the slides in my projects. Over the year, the UI for the audio recording function had improved to the point where it worked quite well (v4.0).
    Since upgrading to v5.5 this week, I've discovered some major (and welcome) improvements in the product. However, when I clicked the Record Audio icon, I was dismayed with the design of the new UI for this function.
    Unless I am missing something, the new design has you open two modal dialog boxes in order to record audio for a selected slide, then Save and close both dialog boxes before you can select the next slide.
    Please tell me I missed the place where you can view the slide note, record audio for the slide, then move to the next slide in a smooth (non-modal) movement as you could in v4.0.

    Today I upgraded to v5.5 and I add a lot of audio slide by slide, from my slide notes.
    I was looking forward to "new and improved" Captivate v5.5, but having seen the way Adobe have set up the recording to slide in v5.5 (and reading this thread) I am now already (less than 1 day into v5.5) regretting having had to pay for an upgrade only to find this area is worse than v4 and the fix will be in a future upgrade that I am expected to pay for again.
    This does not bode well for the rest of v5.5 as far as I am concerned.

  • Audio for video

    Instead of recording audio for video purposes at 48 KHz, how about recording at 44.1 instead and upsampling afterward?  Would it work?  Would it have disadvantages?

    It may depend on whether you are recording separate audio to be laid onto video or sync sound recorded along with the video. Simplistically 48K is chosen because there is an integral number of audio samples per video frame, 1920 for PAL and 1600 for NTSC interlaced video and, of course, 2000 for film 24fps. So if you want to accurately lock your audio sample rate to video sync then it must be 48K.

  • Wanting to develop iOS app on Azure for sharing recorded audio stories/narratives

    I'm about to start developing an app for iPhone (and eventually Android) that should allow users to:
    -record audio narratives
    -upload those audio narratives to azure
    -browse and listen to the audio narratives that others users have uploaded
    -I really want to be able to stream these narratives for playback instead of just downloading or doing a progressive download
    I've been trying to use Azure and its media services to achieve this, but I really haven't found any good documentation for audio streaming, especially with iOS/objective-c.  There seems to be a lot on video streaming, but nothing on audio.
     I'm not an inexperienced developer, but I have never messed with media streaming, and I am fairly new to iOS.  Any suggestions? Is Azure the right way to go? Do I really need to stream or would progressive download really be good
    enough in my case? Would I be able to get far enough using the video streaming tutorials? (ie, is the code for streaming video and audio pretty much the same?) Are there any other third party services or APIs that would work well to accomplish
    this in conjunction with Azure? Any other insights or links to documentation would be great.  The only real constraint is that we want to do this on iOS first (vs switching to Android or other platform, though eventually we do want to expand
    to other platforms).  Thank you!

    Unfortunately, the burden is on the app developers to make their stuff fit with the iOS, not on Apple to accommodate them. Uninstalling and reinstalling is probably your only fix. And if their app isn't compatible with iOS7, then you may be needing to look for a new app.
    I'd just go ahead and delete it and reinstall it. Chances are that file either isn't there or is corrupt and won't work anyway.
