Recording mic problems!!!!!

I dont know if anyone has experienced this yet, but it really bothers me. So i like to record some rough acoustic guitar tracks through garage band just using the internal mic on my MBP. It actually doesn't sound to bad normally. But when i was doing it last night for some reason, after i would record it i would listen back to it, and about 5 seconds after sounding fine the sound quality totally lowers and sounds horrible. It happens every time i record now. I have no clue what it could be. I tried looking in setting and everything i dont know if anyone else has experienced this?

Well its hard to explain. I dont know if anyone is familiar with effects, but it sounds like basically there is a flanger or a phaser of some sort on it, and it sounds very trebely, i dont know if thats a word. But it starts out perfect then transitions to this. Like if you were to hear a crappy mp3 through streaming.

  • Audigy 2 ZS/ Teamspeak/ Mic Problems/ SOL

    I gather from other posts im not the first and probably not the last to have problems with my SB card and Teamspeak Mic function, after MANY painful hours of reading this forum, downloading drivers, reinstalling software and countless tweaks to my SB mixer and Teamspeak options I finally got my Mic to work right. Hopefully my pain will help someone one else, I was ready to give up on my Mic/SB card ever working right till I stumbled on what appears to be the fix to to Mic problem, I made so many changes I will list them all as Im not sure that it isnt the combination of any or all things that made it work,
    My set up, front Mic and Headphone jack on computer,
    -Go to SB mixer function, above the first volume knob is a red arrow, click on it, it will say digital only output, SELECT this option, turn volume up
    -reading left to right on the middle part of the mixer, turn the function ON the first 3, turn off the the following 3.
    - the 6th funtion should be set to microphone, click on red arrow above mic picture and turn on mic boost function.
    -Teamspeak setting, go to options screen select "wave" sound, click ok and adjust in and out volumes on settings panel.
    This did it for me, I went from no mic, to fuzzy mic, to crystal clear mic after playing with things for 2 days.
    I have new faith in my SB card and hope others are smarter than me and figure it out with out all the research good luck.

    In the Creative Mixer on the right hand side you should see a separate column with a "Rec" heading. There should be a small upside-down triangle. Click on that and you should get a list. Choose "Analog Mix" which includes Microphone, Line-In, etc. Then to the left, un-mute the source you want.

    Happy New Year to all.
    I have installed 2 ZS card. Output works well. I want to record a couple of old vinyl albums. I cant either through Creative Surround mixer or through windows get either a Line-in or microphone input to select from. I have tried everything but this forum. If anybody has any ideas it would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

  • Ipad 2 mic problem

    1. My mic just suddenly has gone out of service. Only some scratching sound can be heard during video recording.
    2. I bought my iPad 2 in NY, March of 2011 - I am currenlty in Saudi Arabia,
         a. Is there any shop that can accommodate me to fix this mic problem?
          b. I have got only a scanned copy of the receipt from the Apple Store in Palisades - am I still covered with a warranty using this scanned copy?

    Yes, hold a finger longways over most of the nozzle (if you have one) to confine the suction to a specific area. Also, do it for a prolonged period, and gently use a common pin to loosen any foreign matter that my be in it!

  • Help needed with HTC One regarding mic problem with noise cancellation

    I picked up an HTC One last week, and so far I am loving the phone.  Great build quality, screen, sound - all as advertised.
    However, there is one very annoying problem I am having.  When I am talking to someone, I can gear them great, but they keep telling me I sound muffled or robotic.  I performed some tests, and the problem appears to be something with the dual microphones and the HTC One's noise cancellation features.
    Here are the tests I ran:
    Typical phone call, with holding the phone as I normally do on the sides and to my ear.  Call result, pretty muffled voice.  I'd give the call quality a 5/10.
    Help the phone as I typically do, but covered the mic hole on the back of the phone.  This definatelyimproved call quality.  Was louder and clearer, but not perfect.  I'd rate it at 8/10.
    Help the phone towards the bottom, using my hand to kind of cup the bottom directing the sound to the bottom mic.  This was a further improvement in sound quality.  Rating would be 9/10.
    Help phone as normal, but covered the bottom mic hole.  Very low volume and muffled sound.  Rating a 4/10.
    Talked directly into the bottom of the phone into the bottom mic.  This gave perfect call quality and volume.  Rating a 10/10!
    Talked directly into the mic on the back of the phone. Horrible quality, couldn't hear hardly anything. Rating 0/10.
    Speaker phone on, held the phone up and moved it around as I would normally use a speaker phone.  Call quality was really nice.  Id give it 9/10.
    Speaker phone on, covered back mic hole and used speaker phone as in #7.  Very bad quality, rating 1/10 for call quality.
    Speaker phone on, covered bottom mic and help speaker phone in hand.  Really good quality, even an improvement over test #7.  Would give the call quality a 9.5/10.
    Speaker phone on, placed face down on table.  Volume a bit low, a little muffled.  Call quality 6/10.
    Speaker phone on, place face up on table.  A bit worse than test #10, low volume and a bit muffled.  Call quality is 5/10.
    Based on these tests, I know this problem has nothing to do with the network CDMA connection.  It is obvious that the noise cancellation features are a bit too aggressive, or I have some hardware problem with one or both mics.
    I question wether its really a hardware mic problem, because on non-speaker phone calls, talking directly into the bottom mic gives great quality.  And on Speaker phone, covering the bottom mic makes the speaker phone sound really good.  That's why I think there's something going on with the "Sense Sound" noise cancellation.
    Is anyone else seeing the same issues?  I want to be able to hold the phone normal on a non speaker phone call and get good quality.
    Looking for any tips and advice anyone can give.  Is it worth exchanging for a new one, as I am still in my 14 day window.
    Thanks in advance for the help!

  • Mic problems with all boards thread! What do we do to fix this or do we need a new boa

    I have come the conclusion that this is not just a mic problem but a uni'versal line in problem since several devices can be connected thru my SoundBlaster Li've! 24-bit line in port. I'm assuming its a software problem and it seems to be a common problem. The second possibilty is that part of the board is either defected or assembled incorrectly. Either way everyone seems to have made sure that:
    A. there drivers are up to date.
    B. they have dissabled any other audio device in windows or in BIOS.
    C. there mic won't work no matter what port they attempt.
    D. creative software changes of audio devices and mixer still don't change anything.
    I came on here for answers yet all i find is questions.
    And all seem to be pretty similar. There are many other posts pertaining individual audio cards, yet they all have the same problem. If your having the same problem post here and keep this thread ali've, if you have an answer to your own problems you'd like to share post it here. Hoping for a Creative response to either my post or one of the many other posts on the same subject.Message Edited by syferus on 09-23-2005 0:30 AM

    If you have a PCI-GPIB card, you needn't worry about the USB port or whether or not Windows ME supports 1394. All you need in NI-488.2 version 1.70 from National Instruments. Install this driver and then insert your card. Windows should detect the card and find the proper driver.
    If this did not happen in the proper sequence, look in the device manager and see if the card was installed as an "other device". If this happens, remove the card in the device manager and have windows redetect it. If this is not a solution, you may consider the ask an engineer page at www.ni.com/ask. Provide as many details as possible.

  • Mic problem & warrenty issue .

    Hiii
    I have iPhone 4S which is having mic problem i guess.During voice calls the call receiver at other end unable to hear my voice on handset mode but on speaker mode he can hear my voice.
    Also wanted to know in which country my phones warrenty is valid .
    iPhone4S
    Model: MD241LL/A
    Serial No.: DNPHN0Z3DTD6

    Hi Alankar,
    Make sure your iPhone case is not covering the mic. It is on the bottom to the right or left of the connector. Have you tried a call without a case on the phone?
    Your Model Number indicates that this is a US phone, so the warranty would be valid in the US.
    Cheers,

  • JavaScript error and CATW record locking problem

    Hello,
    We're having two problems with ESS (CATW and Personal Information (PZM3)) in EP 6. We have an ITS-R/3 landscape.
    The JavaScript problem appears intermittently within Personal Data services (Address, Emergency Contact, ...). The actual error reads "object required" and originates from ITS. A user may be able to click through all the ESS services once fine, but on a second click receive the error. Sometimes they can't use the services at all.
    The record locking problem happens in Time Sheet (CATW). Even though a user Saves and Releases the Time Sheet, it remains locked and cannot be approved. Alternatively, some users are experiencing locked records when they try to complete their own time sheets.
    I'm not sure if these are related.
    Has anyone here seen these problems? Any suggestions are most welcome!
    Cheers,
    Colleen

    The best way to nail down the javascript error would be to use the firefox JavaScript debugger extension plugin and put the breakpoints where the problem occurs.
    This will exactly tell you which object it is looking for which is not found. Moreover you might be able to find that when it is working fine as you said. So give that a try and I am sure you will be able to figure out the problem.
    To me this mostly looks like at time some .js file is not coming through to the browser... but this is just a wild guess based on the symptoms.

  • Will recording mic audio in mp3 codec be supported by FMS in the future

    I am newbb to flash. I am developping a mobile app for video chat using FL3. Then I realized that FL3.x only support mp3 streaming for now. So I turn to the server side and found that FMS3.5.1 doesn't support record or live mic audio in mp3. This causes a quite difficult situation. I am wondring if there's a solution/workaround for this? And mostly importantly, I am wondering if recording mic audio in mp3 is ever going to be supported. If anyone can answer this.

    Hi Bob,
    Regarding "when will flashplayer support mp3 encoding" ...
    Jay's lowdown is 100% correct.  And definitely don't hold your breath waiting  ;-)
    My sense is that internally Adobe fiercely guards against bloat in the size of the Flash Player installers.  Fiercely.
    But now they have AIR too.  And Acrobat.  (Both of which now include Flash Player in their current versions.)
    Personally, I would settle for MP3 encoding in AIR as a first step.  Plus, VP6 and H.264 in AIR.
    My sense is that the hurdle against bloat in the AIR installer size is dramatically lower.  And we definitely need these additional encoding capabilities built-in to some runtime.
    So, whenever you have a chance to lobby Adobe engineers or submit requests to their wishlist, just keep asking.

  • 3GS Speaker Mic problem

    I have a mic problem with 3GS 32GB running latest software v3.1.2. It works fine when making calls in standard mode, but the mic does not increase its sensitivity in speaker mode so that people can barely make out my voice. Speech is virtually inaudible speaking at it from just 30cm away. I tested it and there was no difference in mic volume between speaker and standard mode. The mic mesh is clean, and removing the phone cover made no difference, nor did restoring the iPhone or changing the SIM/carrier. I took it to the local Apple retailer and 3 other 3GS phones tested all had the same problem, but a 3G worked fine and calls were easily heard in speaker mode. Is this a problem with all 3GS phones?

    I have found it myself. When Skype is running at the back plan, the app is routing sounds to ear speaker. Quitting app, solves the problem. This reply is for whom experience the same problem.

  • Lumia 925 noise cancelling mic problems

    I have two problem, questions:
    First, I lived in Kuwait and there I bought a Nokia lumia 925 with 12 months Nokia warranty, however I moved back to my home country, is the warranty valid here too?
    -the real problem- :
    Unfortunately I need it since the noise cancelling Mic does not work on it. The other microphone at the bottom of the phone works great, because during a phone call there is no problem, they hear me.
    However I expected today, when I recorded a video and played it back, it was not mute, but it was like the phone would be in water, I only heard strange muffled sounds. I looked after it, I had been cleaning it for an hour: I blew air into the top microphone with a pump, with my mouth... It did not succeed, it got a little bit better, since now that strange sound is more quiet, and when I shout in it , I can hear it.
    Anyway it does not even work while I am recording in the OneNote app.
    It is not a solution, it is still terrible.
    Please help me!

    Hi DaGentleman,
    Welcome to the Nokia Support Discussions! 
    Try to use the Nokia Software Recovery Tool and then check if it helps. See this link for more info: Nokia Software Recovery Tool. If that doesn't help, we suggest sending it back to a Nokia Care Point in Kuwait. Try to search it using this link: Nokia Care Point.
