I want to use QT to create a screencast tutorial, but need it to record my voice, too. Any way to do that with the free or pro version? (Using OS 10.6)

Just bought a Mac book and the set up is with the Voice over key commands,how do you switch this off as it is painfull to use and use the scroll pad?

It's the button (key) that is labelled Control.
Each of the modifier keys and similar keys has its own symbol; this makes listing command keys easier to do. The Command key is usually the only key which has its symbol printed on the key. If you open Keyboard Viewer (in the Input menu, the one which displays the flag in the main menu bar), you can see what symbol refers to which key.

Open the powerpoint presentation, on the click on the 'file' button located at the top left of the menu bar, click on 'save as' at the bottom of the window that opens you should see a dropdown format gliff that says powerpoin presentation .pptx; click on the gliff and choose 'movie.mov'

Audio voice-over

Can voice-over (i.e. new dialogue) be added to video in premiere elements 11?

I am not sure of all the details of your workflow other than your need for audio voice over.
If you are planning on using Premiere Elements narration for that task, you might want to check out my blog post titled
"PE: Narration Recording Stops After 30 Seconds" just in case.

Stratchy noise with my voice over

Hi WiseMac Folks,
I'm a new iMacG% user trying to make a small doc about my Dad using some home videos and some old photos with a voice over narration in parts.
However, the voice over is marred by scratchy (sp?) noises. I'm using a Logitech USB microphone amd I've tried to move as far way from the iMac as I can do to the burrring sound of the hard drive (on the left side).
Any suggestions as to what this beleaguered middle aged former PC user should do?
Many thanks,
Mary

"..I would just record it on my camcorder and import it like usual. Just a suggestion.."
..and a very good suggestion (..I think Ken Twydell or Lennart's suggested that, too..) because that way you can watch the video on your Mac, record the v/o on the camcorder, and you're not giving iMovie a headache while it tries to both play back (video) and record (audio) at the same time - which can sometimes result in the message "The disk responded slowly". See also this similar knowledge base item specifically for iMovie HD.

I have an Retina display MacBook Pro with HMDI out port. I also have an HDMI to Component cable with Audio Plugs. How can I get HDMI out to work with this cable when plugged into the Component and Audio ports on my TV?

I have an Retina display MacBook Pro with HMDI out port. I also have an HDMI to Component cable with Audio Plugs. How can I get HDMI out to work with this cable when plugged into the MacBook Pro and connected to the TVs Component and Audio in ports.

Will not work. To my knowledge, dual converting like that isn't supported. The Mac must detect the connected video output device and that sort of info cannot be done across an analog component uni-directional connection.

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!

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!

How to make a movie from a PowerPoint with a voice over

Hi - as the title suggest, I'd like to record a movie of a PowerPoint presentation with me providing the voice over. I'd then post this onto our company intranet for others to review the presentation.
Any ideas how I'd do this?
Thanks

An easy way would be to export each powerpoint slide as a JPEG file. Import these into an iPhoto album. Drag the iPhoto album into your movie through the Photo Browser and add your voiceover.
It might also be possible to export your powerpoint presentation as a QuickTime movie, but it would be important to do it as a timed presentation rather than a manually advanced presentation, because iMovie will not import manual advance tracks, closed captioning tracks, chapter tracks, etc.
I have imported presentations from KeyNote but have never tried a PPT.

Voice Over: How to set Recording Range in Target ?

Hi guys,
I need help on Voice Over. I have been doing Voice Over without problem.
But now I need help bcos I stumbled upon a new & irritating problem.
QUESTION 1:
When I select Voice Over, I cannot click the RED button to start recording because at the Audio File in Target (just the above the space we are supposed to type the filename), it says:
"No Recording Range set"
Previously, it automatically select A1, A2, A3 or A4 at random but this time it didn't and instead it says "No recording Range Set".
What happened to system ?
QUESTION 2:
How do I specifically set it to output to a track of my choice ?
Thanks

Thanks Ian & Tom for the well explained answers. Now I understand.
But I got another sub-problem.
Like Tom says, it will create another track if there is not enough room. But what I did is slightly different.
Ok, here is what I did. Not wanting to disturb the position of the rest of the voice-over clip, I locked all the audio tracks.
When I did a voice over, it push down a3 to a5, and a4 to a6 so I have two new unlock audio tracks in a3 and a4 where the system placed the voice over clip. When I finally put the voice over clip the the correct position in a5 and a6, I ended up with 2 blank audio tracks.
How do I delete these audio tracks ? I tried right-click and select delete track but the empty tracks remained there.
How do I delete the unwanted tracks, then ?
Thanks

Voice-overs: How to *automatically* remove breaths, clicks; improve voice?

Hi, i edit voice-overs for tutorials (not commercials) in Audition CC 2014. I know how to manually edit out
- breathing, inhalation (just ahead of a new sentence)
- clicks
I've read some and tried some, but still don't know how to
- edit out breathing *automatically*
- edit out clicks automatically
- do "fade out – almost silence – fade in" automatically
- give more substance to my voice with a filter
When editing out breathing manually, usually i replace breathing by "silence" (don't simply cut it away). But sometimes i would like to replace breathing by "fade out – almost silence – fade in", which sounds more natural. I can do this manually (and assigned keys F1, F2, F3 to the three commands); but can i do "fade out – almost silence – fade in" automatically?
My initial recording is not too bad, but i want to give my voice a little more "substance". I tried the recommended "Broadcast" filter, but it sounds to flashy and aggressive. There is another filter called "Male Voice" (or some such), but it seems not to change anything.
I also wonder: If i
- use a filter
- edit clicks and breathing manually,
should i apply the filter before the manual editing? I think i should, because breathing and clicks sound different after filter and shoul be judged with filter applied. But then – if i decide to remove the filter, it would be better to apply it at last.
So here are my questions:
- Is there a controlled way to remove breathing and clicks automatically?
- Which filter gives my male voice more substance without "blasting"?
- How to "fade out – almost silence – fade in" automatically?
Thanks!

Steve, thanks for more good advice including positioning of the mic!
I am just an amateur - a text writer who was forced by ruthless customers to not just produce manuscripts, but also video tutorials, w/out knowing how to, but wishing not to sound as "garage" and "panting" as many others on YouTube (apart from "verbose"). So for my "productions", i write, speak and edit all in one.
The microphone is a USB Blue Yeti, which looks roughly like a tabletop lamp. It seems popular. I set it to one-directional recording (only front direction.) I have tried about ten different mics, including even more expensive headsets, but i get the rather most consistent results with the Yeti. I also use a windshield (got better recordings after starting to use it) and for recording, i build some kind of tent with woollen blankets on top of a table (so that i can stand upright and talk in a "muted" space). Before and while talking, i will drink buckets of warm water or herbal tea perhaps with fresh lemon, nothing cold, no coffee/black tea/dairies; i've experienced this helps. I've still to understand how to harrumph best.
On the laptop used for audio recording i can't run Audition, but i record with the freeware Audacity (is that audacious?), save as .flac and edit on a different PC in Audition.
On the expensive headset microphones i tried, i heard more breathing and – to my surprise – more up and down in volume. I have some, but less, variations in volume also with the Blue Yeti files; so sometimes in Audition i have to change a single sentence by 1,5 or 2,5 dB. I wish that could be done automatically, but perhaps it can?
Previously you also said that breathing is natural and should stay in the audio. I don't want to fully keep the breathing in – that might be ok for some emotional music or movie, but not for tutorials. But i'd prefer to lower rather than fully suppress breaths; that's why i asked for automatic "fade out – almost silence – fade in". I can do this by selecting three different bits of audio and then select three different commands (now by keyboard shortcuts). But it's too much clicking and i might simply glue silence over most of the exhaust sound.
I've also tried to wear a headphone during voice recording, closed as well as open headphones. It confused me no end, i was literally speechless (very unpro i guess). But i connect external speakers to the recording laptop and check on results immediately (and keep an eye on the volume levels in Audacity).
I will print your instructions for microphone positioning and try to follow them exactly next time. But i wasn't much off anyway.
Thanks again!

Audio voice over syncing

Has anyone tried to do audio syncing like voice over an animation with EA CC 2014? Using the timeline I was able to embed a voice over in the browser and seems to work very well. I created a symbol with voice over and have an instance created with createChildSymbol() method from another symbol. At times, however, the audio is delayed and throws off the timing. I'm not sure how to solve this problem. Has anyone notice this?

How to get two audio voice and how to identify its frequencies

hello,,
i am new to javax.sound .. here anybody help me in my mini project
1.. i hv to get to audio voice from two different person same time...
2 next i hv to visualize their audio frequency.... so sure that both the audio voice vary in frequency..
3.. i hv to seggregate this two audio voice and store it in different file and hv to play it separately
is here any body to help me
i will be greatly thanxful 4 ur info

1. How are you getting the voices at the same time? Are these signals
coming from the same line, e.g. microphone? Or are you just reading
two audio files from disk?
2. To get the frequency of a audio signal, you'll need to do Fast Fourier
Transform to that signal. You'll propably need a third party library for this,
search for this with google.
3. If your signals are coming from the same source, it's going to be very
hard to filter out one of these voices. If you don't know anything about the
voices in forehand, I don't think this will be possible.
Give some more information about what you're trying to achieve.

Voice over: How do I read text? If the VO-Shift-Up and then VO-A don't work?

Hi,
All the Voice Over posts say stuff like
When you get to a "Text Content" or "HTML Content" box, you have to "interact with" it by pressing Ctrl-Option-Shift-Down Arrow. If it doesn't immediately start reading, press Ctrl-Option-A." (quoted from Archie's post)
and tell you to take the tutorial.
I've taken the tutorial.
For non-web documents-- my students .doc file and .pdfs which I need to read-- pressing Ctrl-Option-Shift-Down Arrow, followed by press Ctrl-Option-A. just doesn't do anything.
What am I doing wrong. This is urgent as I am a professor, I need to get grades in and I can't see to read anymore!
Thanks,
-jr6g

Really? No one has an answer? I can't think reading .doc and .pdf files are beyond what blind users can reasonably expect to do on a Mac.
My workaround is converting to HTML, but that's inadequate long term. However, if no one else posts anything perhaps the moderator will give me 10points for answering my own question.
Thanks!

HT201406 In my Ipod touch 8GB a box like thing appears when I try to open any application along with a voice over. When I tried switching it off, it says voice over always on in the settings and makes it impossible to turn it off. pls help.

In my ipod touch, voice over is activated and when I try to turn it off in settings it says "MUSIC VOICE CONTROL ALWAYS ENABLED". this box like thing also makes it difficult for me to access all my applications or scroll. Pls tell me some suggesstions.

You have the accessibility VoiceOver feature turned on.
Triple click the home button and try going to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn VoiceOver off. You may have to use three fingers to scroll the screen to get there. If problems see:

Audio suddenly stops working with my voice over although I can see the track there is no sound?

So I'm doing a project and recording voice, in several parts, over with no problems. I go to play back and it all works just fine for a few minutes then the audio suddenly cuts out. I can see all the clips with the associated graphs and can't see any issues, the audio just stops???

If it will not connect to your computer, and it will not connect to the Internet, either via WiFi or cellular data, then there is no practical way to extract the information. There are no magic words that will fix the broken hardware.
You could try a 3rd party data recovery service, but doing so will forfeit your right to a discounted out of warranty replacement. Only you can decide it it's worth that.
