Recording Audio Voice from Software App-All Static

I am attempting to record an audio software application for disabled persons, called Jaws, and all I get the audio faintly in the background and the rest is loud static. Tried recording from laptop with mic and w/o and same results. Using 5.5.  Any thoughts? :-{

The issue I see with iTalk and similar iPod apps is that the iPod has no line-level input, so you'd have to use one of the earbud/microphone combinations or an external microphone like this one which will be limited as to quality. There are some other options here. But if you want pro quality, and particularly want to tap straight off of a mixing console, a device like the Alesis is going to be necessary, though there may be something less expensive that I can't find.
If a microphone works for you, then iTalk might be fine. There's a freeware version of iTalk, iTalk Lite, you can try, to see if it will do the job. It doesn't have the advanced playback controls and has a limit of 2MB per recording, but it should allow you to test it out. Voxie is another possibility.
Regards.

    This is OK because the Conexant sound chip does not support other sources

    The Realtek support the recording from other sources but Conexant doesnt.

  • Is it possible to record audio/ vedio from applet and store it on server

    Pls tell me if it is possible to record audio/ vedio from applet and store it on server. I am using JMF. i am able to store audio on the same machine by making a java application but i am not able to understand how to use RTP with it to store it on server from an applet. pls help me i am in urgent need.

    If u want to capture audio/video from the client machine these are the pre-requisites
    1. u need to have JMF installed on the client :(
    one way out of this is that u bundle the library files along ur applet to the client. I am still to figure out how
    to fo that.
    2. while installation uncheck the option 'copy DLLs to system folder....' and check the option 'Allow capture
    from applets.
    3. The Applets u create must be signed, for accessing the client resources such as hard drive.
    You can then capture n save file on the client, open an inout stream out of it, open an outputstream to the server as already described above and start uploading......

  • Recording audio ONLY from a DVD into iTunes

    Hi, I'm new to macs having just got an iMac G5. So far I love it and it's loads better than any windows based system I've had. I'm wondering if it is possible to record the audio only from some music DVD's I have into iTunes...can anyone help or is this simply not possible?

    Audio Hijack also creates large files, size-wise. This can be a problem if you are working with putting music on audio cds. Google "ripdifferent" for a site that discusses various methods of legally backing up legally purchased media. The gray area here actually has to do with breaking encryption- under US copyright law, users have always been allowed to make a single back-up (Fair Use) of any recorded media they have purchased. It is possible that media companies are, themselves, in violation of copyright law by making it difficult to make said backups by encrypting their media. Also, copying (ripping, recording, etc.) any DVD in any way would seem to be covered by the warning at the start of all DVDs (including soundtracks), which would include Audio Hijack, for instance. This all came about when the digital revolution made it possible to create exact copies. Back in the day, copying an LP to cassette, for instance, was not considered a problem, because you would lose a generation. BTW, ripping music DVDs can be problematic, as they are mastered differently than are "movies," and some Mac ripping programs have difficulty with them. Proceed cautiously and consider legal ramifications, but also consider retaining YOUR legal rights as well.

  • Recording Audio Music from inside the Mac

    If i play a song or audio in my macbook, is there any apllication that can record that same audio im playing on my mac and save it into a new archive?
    Thanks a lot!

    Soundflower is a freeware way of patching audio from running app's into another app to record it - several free/shareware recording app's available if you haven't already got one, google 'freeware os x recording'.

    Wiretap Pro or AudioHijack for more elegant but very reasonably priced solutions.

    I'm sure there are others if you google around, but the above two app's demonstrate what you're looking for.

  • Can I record music/voice from a tape player?

    Is there some way I can connect a tape player to my MacBook Pro and record the contents of a cassette tape?

    I'll try Audacity.
    There are a number of Mac audio editors out there (Sound Studio, Amadeus, TwistedWave, Wave Editor, etc). Audacity is free and quite powerful, but its interface is less polished and not very Mac-like, and some its features are rather idiosyncratic. If you haven't used an audio editor before, that shouldn't bother you -- much. Make sure to read the documentation to understand how it works.
    If you use Audacity, remember that it uses its own .aup format. You should export the original recordings to AIFF or WAVE and keep them, in case you want to go back and re-edit them with other tools.
    I have a basic cassette player
    Remember the basic law of computing: GIGO. It really depends on how much those recordings mean to you, but, IMHO, you should record from the best player you can lay your hands on. No amount of later processing can make recordings from the output of a bad player sound like the output of a good player.
    tapes we have to put on CDs
    Don't expect too much. Stuff that sounds acceptable on a cassette player may sound awful on a CD player, because the CD's much higher audio quality will lay bare all the shortcomings of the original tapes. Experiment with Audacity's noise reduction filter. Check also Audacity's wiki, I think they have some instructions specifically for digitising analogue audio tapes.

  • TS3274 Why don't I install items from iTunes/apps .all it says is waiting .....waiting for what   Please help

    Please can you help I have try to place items on my iPad from iTunes / apps but all there say is waiting .....waiting for what ?????
    Please help

    See if any of these things work for you. YMMV. See the one in bold first.
    Sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to update again
    If that doesnt work - go to Settings>General>Date and Time - set the date ahead by a few months. Try to update again. If you get an error message of any kind - go back and change the date and time to automatic again. Then try again.
    If that doesn't work, restart your router and reboot the iPad.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.

  • When I print from an app, all I get is a solid black piece of paper.

    When I use my iPad to print a document from email or safari to my wireless printer it works. But, when I try to print from an app (like my 4-year old's Jake's Pirate School) all we get is a sheet of completely black paper.
    Any ideas?

    Turns out this is an overall problem....any PDF I try to download on line turns up the same plain black page.  Doesn't matter whether it is what I tried to download mentioned above, or if it's the latest power bill from our utility company.  An UGLY black screen!!   I have it set up that downloaded PDF documents should open in Preview.
    On the other hand, any PDF documents in my computer files open with no problem.
    Prior to installing Lion, most of my activity lately has been converting AppleWorks documents to Pages and, if that doesn't work, I convert to PDF.  Other than that, I haven't been fooling around with any settings.
    Once again, I appreciate  your input....any other suggestions?

  • How to record audio out from a portable player

    Hi, I have a MacBook Air.  I want to capture the audio out (3.5mm jack) from an old SONY minidisk recorder into the Air.  I tried to plug speakers into the SONY and letting the internal mic capture the speaker sounds, but the quality wasn't crisp.  Can anyone recommend  a direct way (presumably thru USB) that ensures better quality?  Thanks.
    BTW, the contents I am capturing are voice journals on mini-disc my grand father had recorded since the mid-90's before he pass recently.

    Take a look at the Griffen iMic. I have used it to capture audio from a portable cassette player. I used iTunes to store the tracks.

  • Built-In Microphone records audio only from the Left speaker

    I'm not sure if my settings are correctly set up, but whenever I record through Logic, it only picks up sound from the Left Speaker of my MacBook Pro.
    When I try to make noise through the Right Speaker, Logic's sound levels do not respond.
    Any ideas why this is happening? I don't plan on using the built-in Microphone for much longer, but it's all I currently have at this point. Thanks!

    James,
    Again, thanks for the response! I guess what Tokuda said about the mono Mic in the left speaker settles that. I was just confused, because when I used Sound Forge on my Windows partition, it would always pick up sound from both speakers (I think?). I could be wrong on that one too though.
    As for goals, my long term goal is to produce Club/Dance music & some serious Vocal work with Logic. Only thing is I have no basis or ground knowledge of music. For instance, I don't even know how to play the piano, or read music for that matter. Sad, I know...but it is a work in progress. And the only Microphone I use is built-in and my voice overs always sound so bland & one-dimensional. No dynamics or great effects to them, like Tpayne, BSpears, or Madonna vocals. Not sure where I should start, maybe take some basic music theory courses at the local community college, grab an internship at a radio station, & then further my education @ SAE, or Berklee College of Music to learn more advanced editing techniques.
    In the meantime, I have been producing Cheer, Dance, & Aerobic music for the past 5 years. It first started as a hobby, and then transformed into its own little business, and now I do hundreds of mixes for Cheerleaders & All Star programs all over the place! It came so natural to me though...Laying beats over songs, then adding my own creative touch to make it my own. I've been using Acid, which is GREAT for what I do, but isn't going to get me much further than that. That being said, I finally made the decision to move up to Logic, not only to broaden my musical horizons, but to hopefully continue making Cheer music with it as well.
    Since Acid is PC only, I still do work on my desktop PC and have been slowly weaning myself from it. The Logic learning curve is extremely difficult (for me at least) and it's taken a lot of getting used to some things like NOT being able to cross-fade my loops. Very, very annoying. Nonetheless, I know I have to make the switch to Mac if I'm really serious about making it anywhere in this biz.
    Anyway, I can totally email you one of my mixes (if you're interested). I would post a link here, but I gather most of the musicians on here wouldn't really appreciate it as much as I do, haha. Oh and by the way, thanks for taking the time to listen & help me out here. It means a lot man!

  • How Do I Watch/Preview Movie and Record Audio (voice over) Simultaneously

    First.. thank for taking the time to read this post -- much appreciated.
    I located another post that someone reported which is almost identical to issue I am experiencing with Garageband. Here is the link
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4741084&#4741084
    I have attempted to follow through the solution that was provided, however I was unable to successfully resolve the issue.
    Essentially, what I would like to do is this. After importing my iMovie project to Garageband, with a use of a Mic, I wish to record a commentary audio track or voice over while I watch my video/movie in the Movie Preview pane from the Track Info window at the same time. I can not rely on the Movie track line as my preview or movie window to watch the movie.
    However, for some reason, I can not figure out how I can get the movie preview pane to show/display while I am recording. To help illustrate my problem, I have I posted a video of the issue. Please feel free to view the video and help me understand if this is by-design behavior in GB or a bug or simple 'user error'

    Appreciate your immediate help
    Thank you!
    Rami

    Hey Hangtime, give you permission to kick me in the head! I feel stupid now knowing that it is a silly user error. Here I was trying to figure out if its in the 'Details' frame.
    In otherwords, 'Detail's is set to '>' and not pointing downwards.
    Funny thing is, you would think there would be a scroll bar to move up and down to reveal the Movie Preview frame if the 'Details' pane is expanded in the Track Info window.
    In any case... Thanks HT!

  • Audio switches from Podcasts app to Music/iPod app

    It is not happening consistently, but several times the audio playback on my iPhone 4 (iOS 5.1.1) has switched from the new Podcasts app to the Music/iPod app with a simple stop and start using the button on my headphone. Anyone else experiencing this?

    I've had this issue with all sorts of apps. Sometimes when pausing playback in Safari/iTunes etc. and then restarting it will start the Music app. Don't think it's an issue with this app in particular, but rather with the background audio API. Part of me suspects that the app is being killed to free up RAM, so the OS defaults to the music app.

  • Recording audio directly from YouTube?

    I'm curious here:
    Working on a film.  Producer wants to do some sequence tests.  Producer wants to use, for the tests, a particular Vivaldi piece from YouTube.  I can easily buy other versions of that same music from iTunes, but he wants to use THAT version.  This is a test.  The film is well financed and he plans to pay for a license for the music if it works for him, once the film is edited.
    I'm trying to think of a way I could 'rip' the audio from the YouTube piece (directly from YouTube) for this test, using Logic perhaps?  I don't want to record it off my speakers.
    Is there a way to record something like that internally in the computer ... or feeding it out and back in through a simple M-Audio Fasttrack Pro?  Hate to display obvious ignorance here ... but would love to know if, and how, one might do this?
    Ben

    Hi Jim,
    Most perfect.  What a lovely device.  Thrilled I am.  Works like a dream.  I'll buy a license.
    Very much appreciated, thank you,
